@DonkeyFantasy I thought I was the only one! Have Cyberpunk 2077 on wishlist even though I already bought. Can't remove it. It's only in mobile app though, nowhere else 🤔
Worst scenario: interviews with employees (taken from diffrent camera angles, in some takes not looking directly at camera) where they say how excited they are about the game, how they've been overcoming challenges to give us most immersive experience, how each and every employee poured their heart in it and gave their blood, sweat and tears. The interviews will be intertwined with footage of graphic designers working on models of characters, locations, objects in their 3D object desing software.
Best scenario: previews of some actual gameplay, maybe a short side quest, character stats sheet, inventory etc.
For those that will be playing this game for the first time: if you park you motorbike next to a petrol dispenser just right, you can top up the tank without getting off the bike 😎
Like others said, bit clunky animations and poor voice acting (at least that "kid"). Unnecessary comparison to God of War. Haven't seen any RPG elements either.
Addressing all the comments about the number of articles saying ACS is a success - we'll probably never find out if it's a paid promotion and with that 'return to form' sentence I think the author is actually baiting us (because I can't imagine this was use unironically).
Regardless of that, what drives most traffic to websites such as pushsquare are guides. It must feel pretty ridiculous to give a game a low rating and then keep cooking up guides for said game for a month or two. So in such websites interest is to project games' success, despite the fact that pushsquare writers surely have enough competence and insight to know that something smells fishy if a developer proclaims success without releasing actual sales data.
Articles promoting ACS success keep using misleading terms like "number of players" (instead of units sold), "second most successful launch in the series" (comparing to other AC titles, none of which released day 1 on steam, instead of comparison to other games released lately) etc.
Let's wait, see and come back to these articles in a couple months.
Funny how when a game gets a lot of positive user reviews then it's a hit, but when the reviews are negative then suddenly it's "rEviEw bOmBiNg!1". And as I mentioned, it's not "free" if it's a paid subscription. I've seen enough reviews of this game to know it's a turd and I have no intention to play it. There are plenty of great games out there, no point wasting time on this one. I want Sony to include good games in the subscription, not ones that nobody wanted so Sony got it for cheap.
@BolkaRover I'm not a troll, I can have an opinion even if it's different than other comments. In our (paid) subscription we're getting a poor game that almost nobody wanted to buy hence it failed. It was the same thing last month with Suicide Squad.
First time in months I'm actually happy with monthly games! High on Life was on my wishlist. Payday - wouldn't ever buy it, but if it's free, I might try it. Pacman - maybe I'll install it and play for 15 minutes 😅.
@Matroska the scene you linked - the fire is caused by Henry Jones Senior being clumsy. The boulder scene happens after he escapes a set off set of traps - there's no longer time to be careful. But before that, when they enter the temple, he's being attentive, careful and saves a clumsy hired guy by keeping him out of the light not to trigger traps. Bottom line is - it's the company he keeps who are usually clumsy and he's the opposite.
And please, don't compare Raiders of the Lost Ark or The Last crusade (both 10/10) to a dogcrap like John Wick.
It looks much better and higher framerate is there... except the prologue in 2077 and in the vault. Framerate there is low even in performance mode (in quality mode almost unplayable) but as soon as you finish the prologue and get ot the open world, it runs smoothly and looks nice.
When choosing if to play a game or not , 60 FPS is an entry condition. PS5 has a good hardware, if a game can't run on it in 60 FPS, it means it's poorly optimized. Better framerates are the reason I'm looking forward to PS5 Pro.
