Sounds like a metaphysical murder mystery game haha.
Just the idea of a bow with a bowstring in a game like Crysis though. Seems dumb to me.
And god that was the worst narration ever. There's nothing profound or sophisticated about thinking human beings are hunters by nature. How many times have we heard that schtick? If anything human beings have no fixed nature anyway. Plus, thinking about humans are naturally primal hunters is totally regressive.
Anyhow, this game, like Crysis 2, doesn't look like it...
There's something a bit too primitive about a bow for it to be in Crysis... A crossbow might make more sense.
@dark-hollow: God that's annoying. Some people just can't conceive of anything beyond what's popular and what Apple have spoon fed them.
They think just because smartphones are the in thing, that everything else must be lame just because it's not popular and not used by everyone. All it proves is that they're complete tools.
Whenever something is absorbed by popular culture it becomes completely empty and superficial. It becomes the "...
I've played hundreds of games, but if I'm around people who I know or can tell that aren't into games, I don't let them know that I am.
I think people who aren't into games have stupid assumptions about them, and so saying you're into them automatically makes them want to avoid you.
Stop being so biased, and stop seeking bandwagon approval. I'm sure you'd enjoy the article if you read it.
"Easily one of the most divisive"? Well nobody really hated it did they? Opinion seemed to range from like average to great.
I do agree with what most of Stephen Totilo says though. The Haytham sections were way too drawn out. There was a point where I was running for ages across a snow field as him just thinking, "am I going to be playing as this toff for the rest of the game? Give me Connor already!"
The narrative and story plummet after...
That's true actually haha.
No I mean every colour imaginable is on screen at once, which isn't much better than "grey & brown." Want you want is various pallettes and colour schemes for various things, not every colour for everything.
Kickstarter annoys me because now anybody thinks they can put out a game, and everybody who uses it think their game is worth us donating for when like 80% of the time it's not.
It just annoys me how many people just tout their projects on it. Kickstarter to me is just an ocean of mediocrity. That's the problem with all the "indie" stuff. At the same though time there are occasional gems.
Still though, Peter Molyneux using it is annoying too...
I wish they'd take more risks with story and presentation. It's just another space-marine, super soldier fighting aliens game. I mean I'm sure it plays well, but I'm jaded with games that look like this. It even has that hyper-colourful WoW / LoL thing going on, bleugh.
A Minisub?! Damn, I kind of wish they hadn't spoiled it though...
Se7en is overrated. I was thinking more Mulholland Drive. Silent Hill ain't no thriller.
Hmmm, is this a rough version? I feel like it could be a bit better... Patches of it look good, but other patches not so much...
Some of has that classic comic book look which looks great, but some other parts of it look sort of lazily done.
Not great composition either if you ask me... bit messy.
Pretty sure Uematsu recently called VI his favourite soundtrack...
XI's good. Sometimes I think people call it their favourite just for the sake of being different. VII, X and VI are definitely above it for me. I do like it a lot though.
I think it's a strong trailer, and while Lightning's costume is perhaps a little bit over-designed, I still think it's a pretty awesome combination of the outfits from the previous two games.
The red and fabric aspects with pockets and belts and whatnot recall the XIII outfit, while the armour - particularly the abdomen- recalls the XIII-2 outfit. I think it's a pretty clever design. I could do without those metal strip things on the arms though. Still, there&...
Absolute bollocks.
Guns are bought with the intention of defending oneself or killing something or someone.
Cars are bought with the intention of getting from point A to point B. As transport.
Most deaths involving cars are road accidents or accidents in general. Guns? Gun crime, school shootings, gang warfare, OTT self-defense. Rarely accident, and largely intentional.
Stop making nonsense, apples and oranges, inflammatory ...
God I wish people would stop making this antiquated, nonsense argument.
You can't pin responsibility on someone with a severe mental condition who barely had a choice in the matter, and you can't just simplify the whole thing with a good / evil dichotomy.
It's not as simple as people just being "evil". These people act the way they do because of their society and culture and because of their own relation to that society and culture. Wha...
Games CAN be part of a larger psychological picture if you ask me. You can't deny their influence. They influence us just like anything else out there in the external world. They can theoretically influence us on a more subliminal cultural level over time, or they can directly influence the more impressionable and perhaps mentally unstable, who fail to separate reality and illusion.
If games contribute to a person going and out and killing a bunch of innocent people, you ...
They say the same shit every single time. I'm sure SE are aware of all the complaints by now. I wish they'd just shut up.
I think too much optimism can spoil a game, but so too can an excess of pessimism. Just have an open mind for chrissakes.
There's no room for intelligent, civil conversation and debate on N4G, because it's just a giant multi-storey carpark filled almost to capacity with hatewagons.
