Np! Lots of OG devs of the first stalker games did go on to make metro so the comparison is fair, but metros much more of a story focused and curated path type of game. Stalker is very open ended with factions to side with, a large open world and underground labs to explore with lots of interesting mysteries and grander conspiracies to uncover.
It’s not. It’s more like a serious in tone fallout but with much better shooting and survival mechanics yet can be fairly difficult
Nice but is that in 4k? Minimum 2k? Or is this more upscaling from a lower resolution?
Game ran fine for me after turning off RTX. Screen space reflections work well enough in majority of games as is.
Unreal doesn’t have the same object physics and object interaction as Creation engine but on the other side of the spectrum, what exactly does this bring to Bethesdas games? It certainly didn’t add much to starfield or interesting enough to carry a game. It’s more of a nostalgic feature of past titles and these devs speak about features and comment on criticisms as if they’re living in the past themselves.
Series s, as hot ass trash as it is, is the majority of their install base and they’re mostly content with only buying CoD and Madden. The enthusiasts and gamers who consistently buy games are not playing on Xbox
It’s not exactly post apocalyptic but modded STALKER & TARKOV are truly are unrivaled when it comes to FPS combat
Combats satisfying but simple. It works really well though.
So long as I have Ray Tracing off this game still runs above 60 fps for me on my 3080 and honestly that’s all I need for a game like this. When I did have RT on though I got a lot of fps drops in somewhat larger areas. The apartments area with a baby carriage in the pool nearly tanked all my frames and was chugging. Turning it off, I can still play 2k max settings and it looks fantastic
That’s actually pretty fair. Silent hill 4 the room got knocked years ago for basically retreading the same places and felt a bit bloated in the 2nd half. Most horror games don’t last all that long either. I’ll wait to judge myself but if that’s the only criticism it’s still a great looking game
Why a year?
Nice to see the haters were wrong. Bloober may not have made some crazy 10/10 game in the past but I felt they were more than capable of doing this game proper justice. Excited to get into it Saturday night!
Nah there’s far too many copium fanboys readily handing money hand over fist to this company every year for it to possibly fail. If’s insane how long this games taken to make and how much of the gameplay loop requires people to roleplay to find a purpose in it. I’ll be shocked if it ever releases. It’s doing interesting things but the trickle drip feed content development makes me laugh
Switch is also successful in selling the same games over a year after the original release date backed by many different games sales data. So unless there’s data showing that releasing a game on a rival console a year after initial launch, then it’s likely not worth it as the issue is how much time it requires to optimize the games for series S while maintaining a parity that Microsoft imposes
Soon as it’s available on Steam I’ll be getting it. Too many games for me to bother getting it on Epic. I’m fine to wait
@thorstein don’t worry about me, nerd. Especially since you have zero idea who I am and whatever goalposts you imagine I set.
@christopher that’s grossly downplaying the issue people have with that game. Especially the Japanese people.
Agreed but there’s a lot more nuance than that to the problems people have with this particular game. More to do with the VAs poltical tweets.
Anyone buying into this deserves everything that happens… should be illegal for this company to be on kickstarter at all
Serious question… why are studios hiring people who don’t want to make games that will sell but rather games for their own self interests. Because believe it or not, hate or despise the reality but a majority of people do not share these ideals that are shoved into these games. The self insertion is cringey at best and the stories most of these people are telling are the same uninteresting and unrelatable struggles. We simply do not care.
Say I’m overreaching all you want...
