Played quite a few matches as Hulk as he's the most fun to use of the few characters I tried out. Unfortunately in some of the matches you will get a team that for some reason have decided to be all DPS so as the only tank you will get hunted. Especially frustrating if said trash team decide to blame you after a loss. The game will benefit from a forced roles mode.

Re: Horizon Rip-Off Light of Motiram Will Actually Come to PS5

@Flaming_Kaiser I'm pretty sure it's been mentioned that games copy off other games and anyone who's old enough on here to have played Turok or Turok 2 could make the comparison that Horizon is a PG Third person version of that. "Natives" fighting futuristic dinosaurs - check
Sci-fi versions of old weapons - check
Enemies with specific weak-points to specific weapons - check.
They made it 3rd person and added a female lead with neon "shoot here please" signs. Hardly original or unique enough to claim someone else is copying their IP. They could have called it Turok Horizons and no one would bat an eyelid.

Re: Square Enix's New AAA Games Are Being Trounced by Final Fantasy 14

@LowDefAl Thanks for that. I wasn't sure if I should continue but if I am in fact still at the tutorial phase till Lv 50(story missions right?) just to get new players up to speed with the ARR segments and can expect a significant improvement there after then I will slog it through. Now while I'm doing this if they can announce a FF8 remake...

I'm not sure what the hype is for ff14. I've been playing it a week or so (30 day trial). I'm on lv 40 and it's been endless fetch quests with a bit of story in between and that's if you focus on the main story which you're forced to do or the side quests and job quests remain locked till you progress. If anyone else is playing it, at what point does it get better?

Re: MultiVersus Underperforms, Another $100 Million Blow for Warner Bros

The characters aren't beloved enough to be in a smash type game. Bugs and co have been almost obsolete for decades now. Who was their demographic? They're better off using Netherealm to make their horror universe and launch each new character with their origin story and theme for each season. I'd pay more interest in that than whatever this was trying to be.

Re: Wolverine PS5 Lead Dev Leaves for Xbox's Perfect Dark Team

All the best to him. I hope he can bring Perfect Dark back to it's original glory and then some. I was unimpressed by the trailer shown earlier this year. Marcus has already worked on Spiderman so I'm expecting better things for Wolverine which I was currently on the fence for in terms of interest.

Re: Random: Killzone Superfans Want to License the IP from Sony

z0d15g0d

Horizon is an okay game I've played it a couple of times always got about half way through and got bored. It's great that there are players who think it's fantastic but that goes to show you that everyone has preferences. I've seen a few comments on here talking about how much money it made meaning it's an awesome game but as I've mentioned I bought it too and never cared to complete it and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in this.

Killzone 2 and 3 were my go to FPS games back in the day and that's when I had all 3 consoles so I had Cod and Halo too but preferred the Killzone franchise out of the 3. If a decent remake is released I'd probably choose that instead also. I'd say the least Sony should do is see if there's a worthwhile proposal and GDD presented cause at the end of the day their IP's represent their brand even if they never see the light of day again. Alternatively they could do what Epic did with Paragon but lock them into releasing it on their platform and see what comes of it.

Re: 25 Years Ago, Square Released the Best Final Fantasy Game

VIII was and will always be the best FF imo. Juctioning was amazing. seed exams while I was having exams in school was a kick in the teeth but fit the narrative. It was the only FF where the player truly lived the characters lives before the madness began. Every other game plops you in the middle of battle after the game begins and you learn their back story along the way.

Re: Bungie's Making Headlines for All the Wrong Reasons Yet Again

z0d15g0d

Hmm... I need to see the contents of the allegations before I condemn the man. Most game devs (that I know of) are pretty nerdy with limited exposure to the opposite gender. The ruling narrative in our society for men (which is pretty unfortunate) is "be successful and women will like you". I've known enough genuine guys who have approached girls and been treated like they were about to murder them.

Re: Your First Look at Wuthering Waves PS5 Was Filmed on a Potato, But It Looks Smooth

z0d15g0d

It's a really good game and I enjoy it quite a bit. Yes it's flashy as hell but once you know your combos (not very complicated) and you've fought certain enemies a few times you know the animations of what their attack is so you can either dodge or counter. I got ChangLi who's probably got the flashiest move sets and after some practice I know exactly what's going on. I will say though that in their version of "Simulated Universe" you get additional skills and sometimes the entire screen is filled with SFX and then the enemies corpses.
