I'll get it - I'm a huge fan of the original film, so can't wait!
Could have the best graphics in the world, but im yet to play a smartphone game that i like.
Eh... I got bored quickly with FarCry 3.
Ubi games all feel kinda... I dunno... stiff.
Assuming said island had electricity, shelter and a tv... This is starting to sound more like paradise...
The logical flaw in his position is that he loves killing everyone else. Do you think this game encourages killing police? Or Mark Zuckerberg? Or anyone?
Hmmm... No hahahahaha
Pachter's point was more about the technology moving to a point where you don't need to get a box that plugs into your tv to get a console experience, no?
I think its more a 'pace of tech' argument, not to say MS and Sony will abandon gamepad + tv style gaming.
Yeah its all dependent of a user's connection and environment which is outside of a dev's control. The idea of a console is hardware consistency. Connection inconsistency is as good as hardware inconsistency for cloud gaming.
I don't think we should confuse the disappearance of a physical box meaning console style gaming will disappear, but the delivery format of games might move from a box you plug into your tv to a portable device that can be used anywhere or as a streaming service like PS Now. He's right in the sense that a console is essentially extra hardware you currently need to play these style games, whereas over time these capabilities might be built straight into phones, tvs etc.
I think exclusivity has something to do with it. Ultimately though, running on the source engine, and made by the origin IW guys, i think it felt too much like a CoD clone with a different skin than a new game.
The gimped player count didn't do it wonders either. It was clear it was originally a 360 game that was pushed onto the Xbox One. I remember rumours and stories about it from years ago along the lines of 'ex Infinity Ward devs creating Xbox exclusive shooter i...
If it was playable the the same way it currently plays itd be boring
Bungie brought the expectations and subsequent disappointment on themselves with stuff like that. Destiny can be summed up by this: its OK.
I think a lot of its success is the lack of PS4 and Xbone content at the monent.
Im disappointed, but still enjoying it in small bites. But forget the hype, it doesnt stand on its own as a particulraly interesting game. Its just a serviceable shooter outdone by others that have come before it.
Its just repetitive, and the story is horrible. Thus the motivation to keep going is supremely gimped.
Good point. I think the game will be forgotten by the vast majority of players who bought in day 1, simply because the game turned out to be pretty mediocre.
They flubbed the first game, burned a lot of early adopters by over promising and not delivering, and it'll be hard for them to keep this going like they want it to if the community just fades away out of boredom.
2014 hasn't shaped up to be a great gaming year so far when the two most hyped titles, watch dogs and destiny, have been mediocre at best.
Destiny is OK. Probably rivalling Watch Dogs as the most disappointing game of the year so far, given the hype it got.
it's called competition and its not unusual...
Maybe PS4 is native 1080p while Xbone is upscaled 900p or something?
3/4 days? Dude.... that's nothing....
Where do you get the time?
It takes me weeks and weeks to finish a game like this. Dead Space took me like 2 months.
