I thought Lara was more likable in this show than that game, I love the British sass. But for the love of god, can they please kill off Jonah once and for all?? I've had it out for him ever since his first introduction in the games!
@matekomlosi Was about to comment the same thing. After watching the latest trailer, I was not impressed with the facial animations, they looked very stiff and lacked emotion. Took me out of it.
If you look into it further, it's not actually Nexon creating these AI likeness videos. They were doing a call on tiktok for content creators to submit videos, and some people sent in these AI videos and I guess Nexon just didn't do a good job at vetting them.
Something is very wrong with the facial animations.. like they forgot to move the jaw with the mouth or something. But yea - to echo others, this has a definite Mindseye vibe 🤣
This is the one that got revealed a while back that looked super janky and cringe? Looks like it's been polished up a bit, combat still has some jank but could prove hard to say no to a sexy heroine fighting some dinos. Hopefully it turns out decent!
Sadly a 7/10 game, just doesn't cut it these days for the masses. Also come on, Blades of Fire is an incredibly unappealing title, sounds like a cheesy 80s b movie.
@Kierant202 Not a great comparison, considering SB is not a soulslike. Its a action-adventure/hack n slash. I would know, I hate souls games (yes, I just suck at them and don't have the patience). Also SB was one of the best performing games on release and it only got better. Wuchang had a very questionable preview/pre-release marketing push, like they were trying to hide a flawed games, whereas SB was looking more and more promising with every showing.
@AverageGamer Only a 5 year age gap between the actresses, so don't think that's the issue. As someone else pointed out though, she would have received a lot of hate, which is probably the better reason.
One thing I'd always wanted from ND games is the ability to customise the characters. Would be great if you could craft different clothing and vary the hairstyles. (the fact that we see her shaving her hair in the trailer makes me hope their might be a hair growth system akin to Rockstar games)
Absolutely done with this lackluster game. I even got the season pass, but won't be returning. Its a shame, as I'd been waiting for an AC Japan game forever, but it just failed to deliver.

Whatever they call it, expansion/collector's edition. I assumed it was a season pass like previous games.
