@OwenOtter Literally just watched a video on him going on a long childish rant about how most of the PC problems that are occuring is because of people's PCs being low end. Guy is taking ANY chance he can get to ruin the success of his own games.
Wow this was not what I expected, it kinda sucks that it is a remake though. Personally I would have just loved a trilogy remaster because I really want to play the third game.
@chesheer Graphics are already beaten by Hellblade 2 and Death Stranding 2. Animation wise they're really good, but I don't think they're THAT good that no other comes close. MW2019 and Sekiro had some incredible animations.
@judgmentarrows Because like you said they take story out. They literally took out the ENTIRE campaign of Red War and then you also have them removing expansions and other story theough their battle passes, stuff that WE paid for. There's also another thing which is the devs taking stuff(Like dungeons for example) out of expansions while ALSO making it still cost $40 only to have you pay extra for it. Lastly and this is similar to the first point is sunsetting gear, all the effort people have worked into getting that gear only to have it become useless the next season SUCKS and extremely artificial to have you grind for new gear.
I've given up on it once I finished up Final Shape and I'm glad I did.
@Ainu20 Not imo, I think reviewers should be allowed with any difficulty if there is one to enjoy their time with the game. Just let it be clear that there are other difficulty modes.
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare Because like difficulty, character classes can change the experience for others. Could he at least test the other difficulty modes? Sure, but they shouldn't be required to play on normal just because the majority chooses to.
"Also - why play this on "hard"? As a preview/review, wouldn't you want to explain how the majority of people will experience the game?"
What a strange take, it's like saying, "Why are you choosing a support class when the majority of people choose to play as the offensive class?" It's the reviewer's preferred experience, they have loads of other reviews to scan through.
@Balaam_ Huh? COD zombies and any horde wave based mode are popular because of how far you can get while it gets and more difficult. Fine if you don't like difficult stuff though.
@UltimateOtaku91 Yeah because that's Fromsoft's thing? Why is that a difficult concept to grasp? They've added harder difficulty modes before in the style of ringing bells and putting on rings.
Honestly Im going to ignore it, not really because of technical issues, but I have the MGS collection vol 1 to go through and I still haven't finished MGS 2 yet and haven't started 3 so I'm gonna wait until I've completed those two so I can compare.
@PuppetMaster Yeah I fully agree with keeping it in the background, hell that was my issue with an entirely different game being Dying Light 2. They tried to make the story be much more involved and it made it much more noticeable how bad Techland's writing team is where as the first game had you playing the game and could ignore the story for the most part.
The combat actually felt pretty good surprisingly. I was genuinely expecting the sound effects to ruin the combat, but I don't even notice it much and the combat was fun to play with! There are still issues like the camera having this weird smoothing delay which makes it annoying dealing with multiple enemies, motion blur, and lack of customizable settings
@PuppetMaster "Good vs evil with good triumph over evil is a tried and true story formula that has been around for many decades or even centuries. Some people can say it's generic"
You can make a good vs evil without it being generic and predictable ya know. It more than likely just doesn't do anything interesting.
@ShogunRok Not wrong there lol but I'm glad to see it is more than simple. I was pretty disappointed with that when it came to FF16 despite still enjoying the combat.
@ShogunRok Okay that's good to hear and I'm not sure if you touched up on it, kind of skimming through the review, but how complex is the combat. Level of DMC, Bayonetta, or is it mega simple?
@ShogunRok Oh no, please tell me the skill system isn't filled with pointless stat boosts. That's the last thing I want to hear from a character action game.
@Fiendish-Beaver Yes, Re2Re and Re7 were terrifying games. A lot of people considered re7 to be the most scary resident evil game. Even Re7 The beginning Hour was a fantastic scary experience.
I don't know how I feel it being tied to a skill tree. I was hoping when it said it would be more natural and dynamic it would simply happen because you helped a wolf out(Like RE4), not because you spent a skill point on it.
I really struggle with elite trophy hunters ideology where even if there's a good game to play they won't play it because the trophies are either too hard or a game doesn't have it. So weird...

Cant say anything 3 4 or 5, but 6 I think still had a good story while being the weakest of the series.
