This is good news. Ubisoft Montreal is one of Ubisoft's most flagship studios that's much bigger and has much more resources than Ubi Pune or Mumbai. Plus a more experienced team and maybe if we're lucky having a couple of people who worked on the original trilogy certainly wouldn't hurt the remake.
Gosh it's been so long since I could play VF. One of the best if not THE best Fighting Game Mechanics in any fighting game. No Flashy BS Fireballs and people flying all over the screen just very deep and technical amazing fundamentals. I can't wait to get back into playing my main Jacky Bryant. It can't come soon enough.
@fR_eeBritney Thanks for the detailed reply. I've seen Gameplay of all 3 just bits and bobs but didn't know they changed fhe the world style from linear to open etc between games. I'm getting really burned out of Open World Style games tbh because their too god damn long making working through a backlog near impossible. I'll play the first one and see how it goes but I loved the look of 3 just wasn't sure weather you NEED to play the previous ones to understand the story or not?
@fR_eeBritney I've got all 3 games via ps plus over the yrs and was thinking of playing all 3 in order, what was so bad about 3? Also do you have to play the previous games to understand the story in 3?
The Blood of Zeus show on Netflix is absolutely brilliant and I suggest anyone into greek mythology to check it out. Also if you want something similar art style wize check out Castlevania on Netflix too since it's made by the same studio
@johnny30 I didn't have any problems with mine, just had to make sure I downloaded the ps5 version of the game. I did notice it sometimes defaulting back to the ps4 version when starting the game. It asking to download it again as the ps4 version isn't downloaded on my ps5 but I just press start/options while hovering over the game, select game version and then pick the ps5 version and all is good.
@jmac1686 Waiting on my ps5 to arrive 19th. Currently playing Valhalla on my base ps4. You mind elaborating on upgrading to the ps5 version of valhalla and the issues you had?
@Arnna The developers have confirmed it is not live service. It won't have any loot boxes or microtransactions. It's basically God of War 2018 combat with Diablo Loot. It's not a shooter. It's a Hack n Slash game with loot. Sign me up! You should watch the "Combat Trailer" that came out couple of weeks ago, it looks soo much better and more polished both in visuals and in gameplay.
Sony's lack of communication is a bloody joke and the fact that most publications and websites don't demand more info like pushsquare when pre-orders have started is a shame and an embarrassment. Just shows the medias bias towards sony covering up for their faults while shinning light on Microsoft's all the time.
@Keyblade-Dan surely the game having a huge update with new characters, stages, mechanics and moves once a year is a good thing instead of how previous entries would just release and be forgotten about instantly by Namco even if the game had bugs with certain characters moves?
@kyethegr8t That's not how selling consumer technology works in 2020 mate. People need to know wtf their paying £450 for before they actually buy it. Not knowing crucial parts like how backwards compatibility works and the upgrades process will work or what features/ui the console will have 57days from launch while taking pre orders for it is an absolute disgrace. This is Sony we're talking about here, not their first rodeo, they know how this should work by now. Imagine pre-ordering a brand new iphone and all you know is what apps will run on it and a few cgi/digital renders of it? Would that be good enough? Hell no. We haven't even seen a photo of a real PS5. Just a bunch of renders. Absolute joke.
@get2sammyb I'm 100% in agreement with you. It's just simply not good enough. Their lack of communication in general this entire year having this stupid drip feed is completely ridiculous pandemic or not. It's the 21st century, if E3 would have happened they would have showed the console and the UI and how that works just like previous generations and yet this time pre-orders have gone live, I've got mine pre-ordered but it's based on brand faith. This isn't good enough. This isn't their first ever console, they know how it works.
@pip_muzz The Game Director for GOW 2018 has said on interviews after GOW 2018 came out that he would like the sequel to take less time, the main reason 2018 took so long was because they had to re-invent the whole game from the ground up, things like engine, assets, mechanics etc etc where as a sequel will not take anywhere near as long since they now have all the base systems working and the engine was made to be scaleable to up to 8K if I recall correctly from the Raising Kratos Documentary Sony Published. 3yrs is plenty of time to make a sequel especially since the script for a sequel was more or less done before they even released GOW2018 and the assets created for GOW2018 will also be able to be used for the sequel. Most of this info is available in the Raising Kratos Documentary.
@get2sammyb It might require for you the open the game the standard normal way the first time so that all those legal disclaimers/logos would be "seen" and displayed Infront of the user atleast once. Then allow then to not matter anymore.
@AdamNovice I'm about 15hrs into the game and can confirm you can definitely swim. The game so far after 15hrs of it is already my personal Game of The Year.
@teknium_ Sony announced last year during a wired article a bunch of ps5 features one of which Is full backwards compatibility with ps4 games so you won't have to buy them again.
@GoreHoundGaymer Anna Williams and Lei Wulong are both launching along with the new Free Balance Patch on September 6th. The Balance Patch will also add, new moves for each character, New Rage Drive abilities for some characters and more character customisations. The DLC characters will not be free but everything else will be.
I personally can't wait the most for the reveal for Devil May Cry 5. Fans of the series have been waiting since Devil May Cry 4 that got released at the beginning of PS3 Gen in 2008, that's 10 whole years ago! Other games I'm also really looking forward to is A new Splinter Cell since there's a real lack of tactical stealth genre games this gen. There are a handful but that's it. Also Ghost of Tsushima, Insomniac's new Spiderman and of course The Last of Us Part 2. This is a great time to be a fan of the Gaming Medium!
