Isn't ghost face just some random teenager with a mask and knife? What's he doing in MK? At least put the effort in with Kameos. There are so many other IP's to choose from
Isn't the rule "If they have giant eyes and a triangle nose they're not humans they're a cat species"? You will notice this in the majority of anime too. If they're going to add a character with melanin they're usually portrayed correctly if all the other characters are humans too (for those of you thinking DBZ). This game is about humanoid cats in a cat universe no reason to get offended but I do see where you are coming from.
@themightyant Lol same. Looks like the RnG gods favour me playing WuWa over Star Rail. Jinshi is a lot of fun to play and I'm looking forward to ChangLi.
@themightyant Damn that sucks. The combat is less mashy than ZZZ or Genshin. Each character has their own combinations, Synergies and timings(plus digimon). Hopefully they bring it to console soon so more players can get stuck in.
I played this for a couple of hrs yesterday but I'm still on the fence. Wuthering Waves is still more fun to play so far. It's between those 2 for which I will keep playing. Seeing as there's star rail and first descendant on my daily plays.
Really enjoying this at the moment. Has a few minor issues that need ironing out but to be expected on day 1. Lots of warframe comparisons in comments online and that's a good thing. It's about time others look up to a great game that's f2p and been going strong for 13 years. Before anyone tries to say "Destiny 2 is f2p". It's not. Tell me a single player that has Conditional finality Shotgun without buying the Lightfall expansion.
@DarianStarfrog For some reason PS doesn't give Warframe much love. I deleted destiny 2 when cross save came out for it and been on there daily. Heck it's the first game I know of to have a playable pregnant character that kicks major ass. Just saying. You'd think that would at least get a mention as gaming news.
@Shigurui Any word on if we will be able to use support characters like in Star Rail? If your 5* rabbit's foot works on this too it will be a great help lol.
Wow dreams do come true. I was literally searching the web last night thinking there was bound to be a MvC2 version for at least steam that I could purchase. This is the best news of the year so far. My Cyclops and Ryu teamups are back. Now if they can kindly give me some news on powerstone 2.
@PuppetMaster There aren't that many around anymore. I was giving an example of how things used to be. Now it's just a comment or so a year from the devs. If they did drip reveals like they used to these hackers would most likely give up. They'd probably drum up even more hype for their games as gamers try to dissect what's happening in the images.
This series is pretty amazing. Reminds me of attack on titan but with kaiju. Not sure if a gacha system will work for this seeing as they all wear the same uniforms. The appeal of gacha is that there is diversity in the characters looks and skills. If this game doesn't feature destructible environments its not going to be worth it to me.
Back in the day, devs used to release screenshots of their games progress every few months to game mags. Maybe if they started doing that again these hackers will lose their incentive. They're pretty much doing it for the attention right?
@Stevemalkpus It truly was a gem. In Power Stone 2 I don't think I've spent more hours crafting items than I did in that game to this day. I'd even take a remaster over most of today's party or moba offerings.
Yea Kebab shops and McDonalds early hours. Most of them have security guards with pepper spray now. Although I'm a bit surprised he said this kind of thing doesn't happen in Japan as it's a staple trope in tons of anime and shows where the yakuza or hoodlums cause a scene in a restaurant. Can't all just be fiction right?
No Cyclops No Interest. I'll gladly take an X-men open world gacha like Genshin or even turn based like HSR. I'm surprised they're not doing that instead of an Overwatch clone.
They'll probably ruin it. There's no MGS without Kojima san same way there's no Ninja Gaiden without Itakagi san. These companies should just move on with new IP's and take the L's for their decisions.
@Starkei Do loot boxes have a guarantee? Gacha does. Much lesser evil if you know how much you might have to spend to get required item. Still a vile and evil practice though.
Been playing WW on PC and while I do see the similarities to Genshin in the world design aspect I'd say it's closer to HSR in character and enemy design (Echos are pretty much Void rangers)and even some of the names of people and locations are practically identical when pronounced. Combat is much better than in Genshin which was the reason I couldn't sink much time into it. The VA is quite bad though compared to HSR it sounds like they need to invest a lot more into that department as it reminded me of the earlier days when VA's became a part of games. Hopefully this is just their "We can do it too" phase and they will show what they truly have in store for this title.
Playing through WW at the mo on PC. So far so good. A few bugs but that's to be expected on day 1. Will probably all be sorted by the time it's out on PS.
If the rumors are true and xbox is no longer competition for ps5 then this whole force the world to make a psn account might be the first step to psn no longer being free.
I wouldn't classify Destiny 2 as F2P it's more free to try. You will hit the pay walls after a few days of playing. No story, dungeons or raids unless you pay.
@NEStalgia I think it's great if it introduces newer gamers to some of the best games out there. Remember most of them would gladly pay 100's on skins every season so getting them interested in spending on different full games should be great for the industry in the long run.
@Specky I'm with you on this. Studios keep churning "nostalgia" dlc in the hopes that it will sell. When they would be better off reinventing those characters or IP's to suit modern day tastes or the franchise they are being introduced into. Bungie did the same thing with ghost busters recently and that was such an insult to the fans of both IP's and to the work they themselves had been putting in for over a decade.
@tameshiyaku Hahaha haven't heard that name in a while. Didn't it suck so bad they gave players end game equipment and gear just to keep them entertained before it shutdown?
@get2sammyb Yup Acheron is a must have. Her technique to 1 shot enemies on the field and prevent encounters will be most appreciated while I'm trying to get all the hidden chests and puzzles in an area.
@get2sammyb Is Penacony Land of Dreams better than Broken Keel? The 10% damage increase only applies to allies of the same type but with Keel the CD buff is team wide.
@Mostik Same reason I'm waiting for the Super Ultimate Championship Edition that will most likely be released in a few years with all DLC and patches. I'm sure I've got enough games to tide me over till then.
Didn't Pal World cost 6.7million to make? with about 50 people? These AAA games cost hundreds of millions and I've known hungry artists and designers long enough to know they're only getting scraps.
They should rehire (If any left) the team members that worked on Soul Calibur 1-3 as those were the Best in the series IMO. And what happened to weapon break from Soul Blade/Edge? That was such a good mechanic that forced you to parry or focus on attacking. Now that they've mastered various martial arts in Tekken, they can bring that mechanic back and give the SC fighters their own unique martial arts after their weapon breaks.

I still think Marvel Vs Capcom 2 will do better than this. It will most likely be back at EVO too.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Zenless Zone Zero?
@themightyant It looks great but WW is more my style of gameplay. I'll come back to this at some point down the line.
Re: Free PS5 Urban Fantasy RPG Zenless Zone Zero Is Playable Now

Re: Across Its Vaunted IP, Capcom Fans Crave Dino Crisis Above All Else
Onimusha and Power stone for me. With all the souls games and Phantom Blade/ Wukong coming out. There's a large enough market to bring back Onimusha.
