interesting, you have to have a lot of respect for the amount of risk that Cage takes on his games.

Although it saddens me that I won't be able to continue playing the lives of the original characters it makes sense. Most people don't have traumatic or huge events happening in their every day lives unless they are a super spy, doing an illegal activity, or just plain stupid.

So by cutting the Heavy Rain Universe out of a sequel he is maintaining the realism that he has set up... Very interesting.

But I'm happy to see he is going to continue the dark story path, it makes for stories that can really take a hold of you

Although there won't be a direct sequel, they will, for sure, make a another epic game in this genre. Just like Heavy Rain is the "spirit sequel" of Fahrenheit.
Interestingly, in both games there is a weather condition which escalets through out the game. Snow, rain... what's next?

He said this already. I think focusing on the online gaming genre is a mistake if you ask me. I would rather see another single player game from them.

Omikron sequel would be cool. That game looked a bit Deus Ex-y but never actually played it.

Lol Deu-sEx-y Lol get it? funny.

Edit: thank you

Seriously this was said like a month before AND after the game was released.

Please stop comparing video games to movies

"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.

I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.

Yes, please stop. They're better than most hollywood drivel nowadays.

I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.

No. Some games are like movies.

medman2022d ago (Edited 2022d ago )

No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.
