Yes! I just wanna wear pants that don’t reveal upper/inner thighs, butts and crotches. I’m fine with sex based armor so long as the women don’t look like strippers/have impractical amounts of skin showing, but since nobody wants to do that I will take everyone looking like a metal box.
It’s likely in MS favor. If they do the port/publishing they get paid for it so rather than a cut for the xbox and PC versions they get money for all of them. As a publisher that is a smart move.
Not sure why I am surprised that there are dudes upset that a huge, very strong man that regularly picks up bikes to fight with doesn’t hit a woman. If Kiryu hit a standard sized Japanese woman (even a martial artist) he’d cause permanent damage. I am sure those same folks would be upset if a heavyweight MMA fighter fought a flyweight or a regular man as opposed to the thugs depicted in game.
Sorta. I feel that not as many regular action games come out because this type of game somewhat is the easier sell. I want more games like bayonetta, or action/adventure games.
Wow, that is absolutely vile. If you don't want to use people with melanin then don't use their cultures/religions. Stick to the ones that look like you.
If the next dynasty warriors game was now all Black people (but still the same historical Chinese characters), I am positive Chinese people would be livid.
While I am happy users have more options I really hope that games in general get better at presenting them. I don’t wanna spend 10 minutes adjusting settings when I play. I think about how convoluted the game settings in Starfield became after their last few updates. Takes away the fun of tweaking settings on the fly.
Honestly unless it was animated I can’t see how a live action would make a good adaptation without being the most expensive thing on earth. CGI and stunt/wire work would be insane. A movie or two might work but who would play Aloy?
That sucks. I support legal emulation but it is always annoying when the software isn’t up to the task. Here’s hoping sony will improve their emulators over time.
That makes sense. I don’t enjoy souls games (or monster hunter games either) because they feel clunky but the “system” feels fair. In a way they remind me of fighting games (a genre I live for) where if you invest the time and learn the system you can mow down the opposition. The difference for me is fighting games give me a dopamine hit the entire time so I will throw myself at the wall until I improve. Souls games feel so cumbersome that it isn’t worth that investment for me. But that absolutely explains why those that love those games adore them so.
I don’t really have free time but for me I feel like the systems in many of the “get gud” games aren’t fun. For instance I don’t enjoy dark souls because combat feels clunky to me. Meanwhile I enjoy Bayonetta or Dragons dogma or Nioh because the combat feels better. All of those games can be punishing but if I am having fun playing then it is more about improving my skill. If I am not, then it is a chore.
That sucks. Not gonna watch the footage. I wish people would just let devs make games an please somebody think of their IT teams and stop hacking companies!
Hmm I was looking more for a pure action game rather than a souls like so I will have to watch a lot of let’s plays to make sure the game play is for me.
I just find it hilarious that this guy is catfishing other men (these kinds of personas are aimed at men). Is it that hard to make friends? This is absolutely bizarre to me.
Ouch. Welp I was gonna wait and see but I am out. This is not a gameplay style that BioWare excels at. Even Jade Empire, a game I adore, was clunky. I have given BioWare too many chances sight unseen. Won’t make that mistake again.
I fell out of love with Dragon Age (I have found that most sequels to Bioware games pivot too hard for my enjoyment) by the second game, but I might still pick this up eventually. That being said the original game still holds up amazingly especially with mods. I still wish Bioware well with this game.
I wish Yu Suzuki would partner with the RgG team since their games are all shenmue inspired anyway; they could probably crank out the ending to the series much more quickly.
As I said before the plan was PSN registration all along. The previous debacle was due to them releasing games in regions that weren’t on Sony/PSN road map. They likely use PSN to track user engagement and metrics so it makes sense that they are pushing for their exclusive games to require it. If that doesn’t work then buy a PS5 to play the games.
That Erhu is rocking out. Anyway it looks good but since I have not heard of this studio i will wait on reviews (and possibly an xbox announcement. I can play the PS5 but the symmetrical layout makes games like this hard to play. ) but I am hopeful. Doesn’t feel like a soulslike to me but I may need more info.
