Oh, snap! Shots fired!
Are they still using the Frankenstein engine they have used for the last 20+ years? I wonder how much of bethesda signature jank would improve if they would just start using a modern game engine.
Well, cyberpunk already tackled this same kind of issues. The last of us... silent hill. Hell, xenogears had some very mature themes and concepts. They are the reason it was not final fantasy 7. We have know for 20 + years now that games are not just for children. The GTA games have always been full of mature content, but I will admit that they have usually been presented in immature ways.
Just came to see the salt. Not disappointed.
This sounds a lot like the game EA canceled a whole back that Amy hennig was running.
I never see much hate for the genre. Problem is the commercial viability. For every human revolution or dishonored you have a mankind divided or dishonored 2. Have a game sell like crazy then many more sell under expectations. Even though they are solid and profitable, they just don't often sell enough for the suits. Just hoping System Shock Remake sells enough for a remake 2. As a fan of the genre, it kinda sucks seeing it wax and wane every few years.
I could be way off here... but my understanding is denuvo drm on PC is total balls and eats cpu. Denuvo anti-cheat is more benign. I have not really had much issue myself as a PC player but I don't usually buy my games right at release so I may be getting patched versions that play nicer than the release date versions.
I'm right there with you. I just rolled credits a couple days ago and hav been wanting more. I ended up really loving the game. Warts and all.
I dont mind the open world, I just can't see how they can keep topping this kind of game. Maybe a half and half kind of thing. Similar open world with a stronger traditional zelda format? I dunno. I'm just an old gamer who grew up collecting empty bottles and really miss that aspect of the game. The unique items that link would get.
Ridiculously refreshing, Amma right? Those tab turning physics.
As bioware slowly became less narrative driven, I slowly lost interest. Bioware is not know for riveting gameplay.
You nailed it. IMHO, im not sure how this thing failing would be MS's fault. As you said, windows is windows. Microsoft is a shit company in a lot of ways, but this thing living or dying depends on how they make the software and hardware interact... and the price to performance ratio of course.
I've bought every Sony game release on pc. Well, except TLOU. I'll buy that when the performance is fixed. They have been mostly steller. Days gone was great on pc. I played through the jank on ps4 because I enjoyed the game, but the pc port was a revelation. I'm looking forward to more.
I like game pass. Can't see how it is sustainable, but I like it. I will enjoy while it lasts.
8 was my entry back in 98. Always held a special place in my heart. I know most feel it's a fairly weak entry in the series but I love it.
That's kind of a bummer. Finally have a pc that would run it with ALL the bells and whistles. Was curious what it looked like with Ray tracing. I have cyberpunk and the visual differences are noticeable, but it runs like shit. My computer crushes the required specs. Think it's just still poorly optimized. Anyone have a suggestion for a game that has good Ray tracing implementation?
I would like to see resi 1 remake in the style of 2make. I know remake1 is still very good and playable. 2make just resonated with me. Spencer mansion seems like it would be a great setting for that type of gameplay.
I remember when bioware set the foundation for the best star wars game.... kotor 2. Buggy broken mess on release, yeah, a ton of heart and great writing. Obsidian has some huge talent in the writing room.
I'm glad I read most of the books after witcher 2 and before 3. It made the search for Ciri and the moments with her hit harder. Great game.
@prime157 you can absolutely put lipstick on a pig. Hell, We put eyebrows on the dog once. I suggest you try it. The expressions become more human and absolutely hilarious.
