I don't really see how standards come into it with statement like
"It's super hip. I just think the whole 'hacktivist' element is cringe worthy to say the least. It focuses on the embarrassing elements of them; attention seeking, overly rebellious, idiotic mask wearing, and disrespectful people who don't really think of how their actions affect others at all, just what they can do to annoy those in power. At the same time, they try to make them '...
It's a video game, your looking way too deep.
I don't understand why GTA's over the top is fine, but this isn't.
Why are people trying to define it so strictly?
It's like Indie, it's become a loosely defined word that can earn it's meaning and be defined by many different aspects or combinations of aspects.
AAA can mean large publisher or large budget or quality and more or any combination.
Indie can mean no publisher small budget small studio and more or any combination.
I think this guy is using age as an excuse. What he really doesn't like is that the character doesn't look like him.
I'm older than this guy and I think the game looks fine. The gameplay looks to be improved and the story seems focused on the actual hacking/dedsec stuff instead of some stupid gotta save/revenge the kid stuff that ruined the first game's story.
It's a shame that so many people would be willing to write off the game si...
Yea, the bandwagon is like 100 blocks long.
There is more to a game than graphics...
Well, I'll be honest with you, I don't like Sony, I criticize things they do all the time. I do however prefer Sony and their games to Microsoft.
And I have stated in the past I would prefer if neither company did .5 systems.
@Sonyslave
PSVR works with the current PS4, they have showed it at many events now, running on the same PS4 you can buy in a store. So they may have plans for that, but PSVR doesn't need a new system t...
Well, I highly doubt this is true.
But as someone who would prefer Sony maintain control over this generation I hope they do. Let them rush into it. It will only make it that much easier for Sony to outdo them. Sony doesn't have to rush to create a new console they already have the more powerful system and lead sales by a huge margin.
I enjoyed it a lot after they patched it a few times. The big thing for me was when they changed the way hacking while driving worked. At release if someone was chasing you you had to look behind you to activate hacks at the right time (very hard to do while driving). But after one of the patches you could do it while the hackable was in front of you. That really improved the game a lot for me. I also liked the fact that the game was open world but allowed you to do most everything in a ...
Nice review, I think you covered the game well. It's a really hard game to describe to people because there really isn't anything else like it. It's rarely what people expect it to be when they first play it
When I first was thinking about buying Rorona which was my first game I kept thinking it would just be a grind fest like other JRPG's that have crafting. But it's nothing at all like that.
The crafting is very complex (yet easy t...
Can't wait for Yakuza 0. Love that series, Yakuza 5 was my GoTY 2015. I hope they officially state Yakuza 6 will come to the west sooner rather than later. I'd also like if they were to bring the other spin-offs west as well.
Edmix so much of what you just said is just flat out wrong to cover up for your stupid point of view, and just to keep this argument going.
I'm done.
Anyone who actually is still in this thread I encourage you to read what this guy said and remember who said it into the future so when you see his posts you'll know what this guy is all about.
P.S. I had to block him because he kept PM'ing me after I asked him to stop.
What does that even mean? It's bad for everyone.
What are you talking about? I own games that I have played through more than a dozen GPU's don't be so short sighted. Since the original Mirror's Edge came out I have had 4 GPU's. I don't understand why people just throw up their hand when these companies do this crap. Keep accepting it and it'll be 1 upgrade before you know it.
I'd just like to point out that the corridor nature makes sense.
Cocoon is literally a "man made" (Fal'cie made) object created to breed humans. It's like an office building small narrow corridors, with open spaces for rooms (the cities). When you get to the actual planet (Gran Pulse) it's a huge open area. The developers tried to explain this many times but people just couldn't understand the story or were like Edmix who just talked crap wi...
Kurisu you should play 13-3. It's pretty fun and it offers unique gameplay and challenges. Plus you can get it super cheap for both PS3 or on PC especially with the Steam summer sale coming soon. It's kinda a shame you spoiled it for yourself.
I have never seen anyone defend DLC so hard.
Please explain how all the DLC that is already on the disk when you buy it isn't content cut to be sold as DLC?
To use EA as an example Mass Effect 3 the Prothean crew member in which all the characters clearly had dialog and there were basic elements of the game that had queues that pointed to obviously missing content if you didn't have the "LAUNCH DAY" DLC? Or how about the Aria DLC where s...
The story was great if you actually understand it. Especially when you when you look back at it after playing all three.
And Lighting is really an amazing and really well defined character. Very few games or series take the time to develop a character as much as Lightning.
That's really not true, it depends what you're looking for. What I'm talking about is things like watching the roller coaster travel around the track or watching the different aircraft flying around in the zones. To things like looking at the detail in the textures on things and taking the time to listen to the comments by the NPC in the various zones who actually have a lot of flavor speech to explain why they are scared of the L'cie.
Well, ok I guess.
I'll wait till the game comes out to judge it. Personally I feel like very little can be drawn from what's been shown so far about the story other than it's about a group of hackers. There is no way to tell why there doing what there doing or who they are doing it too from what I have seen.
All trailers are put into the public to sell the product. I'm not sure what else you would expect.
And I talked...
