Cool world, but not for me. The gameplay looks stiff and unpolished as it's trying to do too much. That's something that needs to be dialed in like BOTW or Genshin.
These gatcha games are also too much of a time sink and never ending. At least Zelda can be finished and you're onto the next game
GT meets NFS sounds PERFECT! Exactly the thing that would get me back into racing games. I know the Crew has the same idea, but dear lord the clunky unfinished Ubisoft jank 🤮
@TheAmbienWalrus @somnambulance
Awesome, can't wait! I was sold by a single imagine including a nun and a very moody backdrop lol
Tbh, ironically it's the walking sims doing something new these last few generations. Everything plays the same, has the same graphics style and game design it seems, but then along comes a very unique game with awesome gameplay, physics and gamedesign called Death Stranding and every brainlet calls it a walking while playing their gazillionth fetch quest in their gazillionth Ubisoft game.
Yeah, these days I'm more hyped for games like Indika lol, can't wait
That's an insane amount of games lol... No way any sane person can keep up with gaming today. I'm well up to date vs the average person, but I couldn't tell what any of these games are. Indika is the one I'm picking up on sale, that one stands out!
@nomither6 Very well said. High res playdoh is the perfect description lol. I might add games like RDR2 and Cyberpunk to that list. Not afraid of dirty characters, physically and mentally. TLOU2 did the physical part very well in terms of it being post apocalyptic. Sadly it's only a handful.
Games like God of War or Horizon are pretty, but it doesn't make any sense with the tone of these games. They look SO clean! Look at the characters of Horizon for instance. They look like they're from some sitcom lol. They're supposed to be in an apocalypse!
Also why don't the monsters/ machines or Kratos/ Aloy themselves have any dirt on them? They're walking on dirt for miles on end! They run on it, jump on it, roll through it, but they're always clean!
It's a weird thing these days where they're afraid to give the main characters bad traits or something
@MeatyVeg
What live service games though?
They couldn't even do that. They failed making Factions 2, the absolute turds they are. They had live service gold in their hands ruined it while wasting so much time and resources
Can't even vote. Couldn't even be bothered watching it.
I was always there for their E3 presentations.
Unique and daring games. Not some soulless, factory made, physicsless games that all have the absolute GARBAGE checklist Ubisoft gamedesign with horrendous characters and writing.
Why did they ruin Motorstorm? Why did all their gritty games become so shiny and clean? Games like Killzone and Infamous were dirty and grounded.
They became this clean nonsense, just like MCU movies. Where are they to begin with?
Where is PS4/5's next Shadow of the Colossus/ ICO game? SOCOM? Horror games? Anything that isn't underwhelming? Why is Sony's best multiplayer game a PS3 game (factions)!?
@Tecinthebrain I mean it's going to be a fighting game, so fine. It's not gonna be revolutionary. They never are. They do look better and better every game, but is that unexpected? Is the genre unexpected? Everything about it is expected. It's like saying COD finally has a new engine. Big deal. They're already 10 years too late. About time they improved.
True improvement would be a new sort of game though. Something of an Arkham type quality. Enough of these same old Budokai/ Tenkaichi games.
@thefourfoldroot1
It's the toothless storytelling with over the top inoffensive utopia Disney characters. So bland beyond belief.
The gameplay though, huge improvement on the Activision games, but still needs better physics and swinging...
Turning off the autopilot for the swinging for nerds like myself was a huge deal. I'd argue it should've been the default, but still.
Lots of improvements needed for SM3
@Th3solution
Well it is more of the same... They set a good enough blueprint and then keep releasing variants of that. Factory made games. Welcome to modern gaming
The Crew had the right idea, but as is typical with Ubisoft, they always rush the gameplay aspect. Couldn't hold up to Forza Horizon. Not even close. But I'm on PS, so...
Now this looks very promising. The idea is fun as heck, but if they can pull of the gameplay (they have experience), then I'm stoked
My excitement for the "next best thing" is gone, because there isn't anything that breaks any borders anymore. RDR2 is the last game I remember doing that.
When GTA IV and even PS2 games have better physics than most games today, you really wonder if those graphics and fRamERaTeS are worth a damn. Games are factory made quickly and don't leave any mark, so I buy everything on sale
There's not much I can think of that would absolutely wet my pants like in the good old E3 days.
Maybe Factions 2, but yeah... Returnal 2?
Honestly I'm kinda disappointed in my favourite franchises.
Where's another LA Noire type game? Another Shadow of the Colossus? Another non-openworld Metal Gear type game? Max Payne? New Dead Space? Arkham? LOL Arkham... What happened to gaming man.
On a positive note: Death Stranding 2, GTA 6 and Kingdom Come 2 definitely get me hyped
@nomither6 Sorry, multiplayer died for me the day Factions 2 died. I'm a doomer now when it comes to multiplayer. Apex and Rocket League still solid though
@ATaco I should look it up, but either way, it's not so black/ white. Lots of forced woke nonsense in entertainment is crap and they hide from criticism behind their pandering. There's also a huge loneliness epidemic, so put 2 and 2 together. People aren't happy and they have a point. Lots of brainwashing, choosing sides and hating eachother going on
@bestuardo Both can be true... Mad Max was amazing, but Kojima definitely has one of the absolute best franchise out there and PT and Death Stranding are masterpieces as well. Just because he's a movie nut and his cutscenes can be cringe, doesn't mean they're bad.
He goes above and beyond in an industry that pumps out mediocre garbage all the time and he should be respected for putting out insane quality. Go wash your mouth
People buy mediocre games in droves and this one was slept on hard. Ironically by me too, cause MGSV was released at the same time, but I got around to it. Incredible game
@wildcat_kickz There's also the movie "Gay nwords from outer space", which is also a cult classic lol. So maybe it's something to do with that time. Back when they had fun
@Waitinonpsvr2
Jeez dude, how old are you?
There's a reason Sony and Nintendo are so successful for decades...
They've got their big exclusive games that sell consoles. It's healthy competition that's good for the consumers. If you want Nintendo games, buy their console.
Why should Sony release their Spider-Man or God of Ware games on other consoles? It defeats the whole purpose.
Microsoft is desperate and buying everything nowadays and acting as a 3rd party publisher now in the hopes of making some money back.
There's a reason PS5 is outselling xbox 5 to 1 now. It's generations of trust and quality exclusives
@Waitinonpsvr2 Exclusivity is a good thing though lol. Nintendo makes quality games to sell their consoles and more power to them.
Other than that, every single developer/ publisher ever has the power to develop a game for 5+ years and come close to the quality and revenue of Rockstar games. But they never do. Yearly mediocre releases. That's the game of the industry
@Waitinonpsvr2
I absolutely despise these low budget games. Pisses me off.
What's even worse is that these so called "fans' defend these garbage games.
I was crucified by fanboys for saying the upcoming DBZ game is same old same old and we need them make something with the quality of an Arkham game.
Same thing with Activision bringing out garbage Spider-Man games for over a decade. Always the fanboys defending those chappy games and god forbid you ask for something better.
Arkham Knight isn't even near the top? What a joke lol. Now that some years has passed, we can finally see what an absolute masterpiece that game was.
The Batmobile was flushed out, had incredible physics and damage to surrounding buildings. Incredible story, writing, gameplay and world. The graphics on that game looks better than ANYTHING out today. Graphics alone don't count either. Most game today just look pretty, but they're very static.
They don't have the little rain drops splatter moments when the cape slaps open mid-air. New Spider-Man games don't have the damage to surrounding buildings. It doesn't even come close to how good Arkham Knight was. We were spoiled back then.
Now enjoy your live action crap you filthy ungrateful animals.
Greaaaatt.
Another product that's pure wasted resources by Ubisoft.
They always try their games to look soo damn cool, but always fail miserably. Just the damn corny title alone... Christ almighty.
Always the same problem: if their games had a couple more years of polish, better writing, better non-floaty garbage gameplay, better world interaction, better physics then MAYBE they'd be above average
@adit365 That Mad Max game had NO right to be as good as it was. Sometimes I really miss that game and if its platinum wasn't that hard, I'd jump back in for a second playthrough. That game REALLY needs a sequel ffs.
@Steel76 Kojima can be cringe with its cutscenes, but at least he's making some of the most unique, detailed, beautiful and just plain best games in the industry with flushed out gameplays. MGS might be the absolute best franchise out there. It is for me.
In a sea of absolute mediocre uninspired Ubisoft garbage, even his smallest creation PT is better thann anything Ubisoft has released pretty much ever. And judging by PT, he can do different genres
@MegaManX-7 GTA IV on PS3 may look dated graphically, the overall picture of movement, physics, world interaction and immersion still is miles and miles ahead of anything out today.
Games nowadays are so typically pretty, but when you look at the ground, your character doesn't leave footsteps behind in the snow or sand (and the latter is often physicsless. Just a little dust shows up after each step). Too much attention is spent on graphics and fRamERaTeS nowadays
@Ravix AC is a huge franchise though. It's crap, but people buy it and know what to expect. Black Myth seems kinda sketchy tbh. Feels like a weird fever dream. Either another delay or it turns out it was all a huge scam lol
@Ravix I don't understand anything about this game. Seems like 3 of these came and went. One was Team Ninjas Wo Long (just looked it up for the title), the other one i don't know and this still has to come out lol.
Gotta say this monkey one had me hyped the most, but very strange release
@somnambulance Would that be a good thing though that it's a demo in a way? Because for me, if I don't like the game after a couple of hours, it might really grow on me further down the line. So I buy the games I really want and I can try the interesting ones I get through Plus essential. More than enough games for me to justify not upgrading to Premium.
Also Returnal is definitely not the only good game, but it reminds me of pure passion projects Sony would bring out during PS2/3 days. The games have been a bit soulless since PS4 imo
@somnambulance As most things in todays gaming, it's all about quantity. More games, more hours spent in games, more weapons, more loot, bigger maps, etc.
It's such a breath of fresh air when unique games like Returnal release. Only really good thing Sony's done this generation tbh.
@breakneck And how does that benefit the product for us as consumers? Another mediocre product. Great.
Imagine working years on something and your boss cuts corners, wants you to rush the product out the door ASAP meaning it won't be nowhere near as good as it could've been. That's the case with literally every Ubisoft game today. Garbage company. Good riddance
@Olskeezy What does Rockstar as a studio have anything to do with this? With the amount of people buying rushed, terribly written/ playing garbage "AAA" games by trash publishers like Ubisoft, Rockstar actually puts out insane quality of games.
It's a damn good business model to work on games for 7+ years and make huge bank. Other publishers need to take note, but they never will. Therefore GTA 6 is day one. Has nothing to do with Strauss. RDR2 ridiculed Strauss btw, he's hated through and through
@LifeGirl
Neither did I with Bella.
Just doesn't work for me. None of the emotional moments hit for me. It all felt rushed and not enough time was spent with the main 2 characters themselves.
Just like anything else with Druckmann for the past decade, he makes outlandish decisions like the twitter warrior he is. It's crazy how much of his creative work is influenced by getting back at his internet haters. Very sad
