I trust the hacking community to jailbreak the latest firmware when I'm done with my backlog. I'm looking forward to play GTA6 for free if they don't release a physical version.
They should remake AC Shadows. That protagonist makes no sense. Nobody wants to play a Japanese ninja in feudal Japan. Give us the black girl we all want!
Joke aside, the only assassin's creed that could be as successful as Black flag is the AC2 trilogy.
It looks like a mashup of everything that came out of Chinese studios in the past few years with a healthy dose of drugs. Although I'm not sure healthy is the right word.
Game Freak hasn't even been doing the bare minimum for over 20 years since pokemon sells like hot cakes, regardless of the quality.
I don't think they have the ability to make good games anymore. The only well received pokemon game in recent years was Pokopia, developed by Omega force and not Game Freak.
@ShadowRJ It's like saying skull and bones deserved a GOTY award in Singapore, or Concord in Washungton. Being high profile doesn't mean being good, or even qualifying as a game in Mixtape's case. It's more of an interactive film. Access media is a cancer.
That's what happens when you don't turn a beautiful car into an ugly 3D model, and you don't try to push stupid ideas like a school bus or a Ford Ka is faster and better in every way than a supercar.
That game got buried as soon as reviewers got their hands on it (actual reviewers, not access media and their toxic positivity). It would have failed, even without game pass.
I'd be interested to see a 5-10 year evolution of each studio size, just to see which one overestimated the market, and became bloated during that awful lockdown.
@get2sammyb I think they are trying to copy the style of Mieruko-chan or Dark gathering (I'm not too much into horror, so these are the only horror anime that come to mind). But they lack the skills to make it visually pop. If the cel-shaded characters were 1% as expressive as Xenoblade chronicles or Fire Emblem, I would call this a success.
Also I don't see what part of Jujutsu Kaisen they used as inspiration. Curses maybe?
Japan has been riding so high in the video game industry in recent years, it's not even surprising a studio on the other side of the planet would try to imitate the style and setting its game.
That being said, this trailer looks soulless, and the cell-shading doesn't feel like an anime at all. The protagonist's dull face would pull me out of the game every time I see her.
@Balaam_ Horse armor is pretty much the origin of modern game monetisation. So it deserves it's place on the wall of shame (and people who decided to sell it in hell, next to the scalpers)

Re: Save Mass Effect Petition Rockets Past 200,000 Signatures as Fans Ask EA to Continue the Series
If Exodus is good, they could make a proper mass effect. Ask them to reimagine Andromeda first, then hire them.
Nintendo did this with MercurySteam, asking them to reimagine Metroid 2. They went on to make the fantastic Metroid Dread, and now Ravenous.

Imagine a controller with your own face on it, staring at you every time you fail. That would make failure much funnier. I get why she'd want that.
