Re: Beyond Good & Evil 2 Director Passes Comment on Ubisoft's Major Reshuffle

Simu001

So, how.many times did they restart development on this thing? Becuase that would be the only way I can see why it would be in dev hell for this long. Or it is legitimately vaporware and exists in name only just su they can have tax adbagtages or something like that. In any case. Its ridiculous and I wonder how many are still interested in this project.

Re: Larian CEO Swen Vincke Sticks His Foot in It Again, Thinks Game Reviewers Should Also Be Reviewed

Simu001

As a reviewer who reviews reviewer reviewers, I have to say that someone definitely should review the reviewer who reviews my work!

On a more serious note. If I dont vibe with a reviewer or their tastes dont align with mine then I know that his opinion wont hold as much "sway" as someone that does. Plus we all like different things. I dont like visual novels and roguelikes for example. Does that mean that I wish they stopped existing? Not really. Sure it kimda disappointing to me when a game I'm intrestet in turns out to be a rogue like. So what? If I'm interested e ough im gonna try it despite that. If not then someone else will. Plus there just games out there that are badely made and sold at a premium price. That shouldn't be acceptable. If I pay a premium price then I expect a premium product simple as that. If I make a terrible chocolate cake that makes you sick and ask for a 100 bucks would you be happy? No, and you will let people know about that. I dont care for the review score but rather the arguments a reviewer makes.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Has an Official Name at Square Enix

Simu001

Final Fantasy 7 Rubiks cube
Final Fantasy 7 Rewind (the tape)
Final Fantasy 7 Racing Edition
Final Fantasy 7 Really finished this time we promise.

I mean the naming conventions are just getting ridiculous sometimes but whatever. Hopefully the game is good and people are happy with the conclusion it'll bring. I started ff7 Remake and crisis core remake but never finished them. Im waiting on part 3 to release so I can play the story one after another as I'm really bad in retaining info especially if the story is told in a complex manner.

Re: Prince of Persia Remake and 5 Other Games Cancelled by Ubisoft

Simu001

So you cancel the sands of time remake which was apparently ready to be released but beyond good and evil 2 which only has a cgi concept trailer is STILL in development? Yeah.... speaking of creative efforts. Played ac shadows and never finished it.... so there you go ubi. Should Beyond good and ecil 2 ever see the light of day it has to be a perfect game and knowing ubi this won't happen. Just rip the band aid off already......

Re: Deadpool Just Looks Perfect in Marvel Rivals on PS5

Simu001

Season 0 was great then came swason 1 and I fell off hard. I dont feel the need to play it even though I bought a skin or two. I guess other than co-op games, I'm now at a point where multiplayer no longer interests me. BF6 is the most recent example for me. Played a bit at launch then came.pagches which introduced more bugs and oh well. Anyways im getting off track. Deadpools kit sounds interesting but not enough for me to return. Plus I dont like the character that much.

Re: Talking Point: Did ANTHEM Deserve the Hate?

Simu001

If they gave it an offline mode it would've been better imo. This was needlessly online only and on top of that it just wasn't what many expected from BioWare. Same with Andromeda. It was a time where BioWare seemed to not care about the final product.

Re: Game of the Year: #2 - Death Stranding 2: On the Beach

Simu001

Couldn't bring myself to finish the first one. Not gonna bother with this one. Story didn't grip or intrigue me at all in the first one. Gameplay also felt really sluggish (much worse than RDR 2, imo). The only thing I liked about the first one until I dropped it where the graphics and the soundtrack and sound design.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 613

Simu001

Finished Red Dead Redemption 1 and Im now playing Red Dead Redemption 2 ( just started the 3rd chapter). To relax in between robbing and stealing, I've also started Fantasy Life i. In between I'm also doing the daily tasks in Umamasume. I've also played devil may cdy 5 but somehow after getting to Dante it's lost its steam for me. Currently thinking of starting Dishonored 2 but not so sure. I have a stupid habit of starting tons of games and then not finishing them. RDR 2 was a victim of that in years prior.

Re: Arc Raiders Wants You to Play into the PS6 Generation and Beyond

Simu001

Hmmm how many games have touted this 10 year journey nonsense and failed? Remember Halo infinite for example and how that was supposed to be like the big thing? Destiny? Idk it's good to plan ahead but at the same time it feels overconfident.... Though it has to be said that I am not the target demographic as I dont like extraction shooters sooo. As long as the game is fun and stable it will gather an audience. Good word of mouth will do the rest.

Re: PS6 May Go Uncontested as Rumours of Next-Gen Xbox Cancellation Force Microsoft to Comment

Simu001

Microsoft has become such an unreliable narrator/entity, that I dont trust anything they are saying. Gampeass is profitable you guys and now they ruined that with removing day 1 games on all but the most expensive tier. Yeah right..... To bo fair I dont trust none of the big 3 but Microsoft/Xbox has been especially untrustworthy in its messaging and follow up deeds. If you put out unclear messaging don't be surprised when us consumers run with whatever it is you say. Epseciaif your actions scream "we are a dying brand!"

Edit: just to be clear I dont want microsoft to close xbox. I think competition is necessary because if not we can just look at sony and nintendo and their behavior when their ontop. It just feels like microsoft doesnt know what to do with xbox.

Re: 'Told You So': Ex-FTC Chair Lina Khan Is Having the Last Laugh Over Xbox's Activision Acquisition

Simu001

Xbox bit off to much. Now they are choking. More games they said and yet we haven't seen an increase in activision games... As much as ms khan has been proven right, it also shows the incompetence of microsoft. Or perhaps microsoft simply doesnt know what to do with the xbox brand itself. Hust look at the past 2 or 3 years. Is xbox a publisher? Cloud based company? First party company? Xbox itself doesnt know what it wants to be further compounding the problems it has. Gamepass has been increasing in price and with the final ridiculously hige jump many are jumping off. 360 bucks a year is alot of money. Some regions are even worse off. Also the economy has changed too with costs of living rising..... I'm no expert but it sure feels like xbox is on its way out. (Not that I wish for that, I have no horse in the "console wars" race)

Re: Silent Hill 1 Remake Now a Big Focus at Bloober Team, Could Make Cronos 2

Simu001

Cronos didn't do it for me sadly. Made to the hospital and then stopped and after cat hing up on the ending/endboss, not sure if I wanna attempt. Idk the story isn't gripping me, the characters are apart from cool designs nonexistent and the gameplay was a slog. Blooper missed it for me so glad they have SH1 which gives them a great blueprint.

Re: Don't Be Like This GTA 6 'Fan' Who Flew to Scotland Just to Harass Rockstar Staff

Simu001

Pushsquare please don't share the vid. People like these not only thrive on reports like this but there's also copycats. Even worse someone might get physical. Notice how one of the employees jumps? People like this guy can be legitimately dangerous. Report on it sure but linking the vid might give some people the idea that it's ok.... glad this guy didn't get physical.... social media was a mistake.....
