Looks great! Just imagine the pre-release footage comparison in 2034!

Looks decent but I'm curious how night's look. In the original night time had a horrible green tint to everything and even Forbidden West had this weird night time color filter I couldn't stand. Don't know why games can't just make night time dark and a bit gray like real life

Yeah games this classic really needed a full on remake and not a slight graphics bump. Most recent remasters are fine when they are 1-2 gens old, but this still looks incredibly dated and janky. Should have gone the res evil 4 route. Definitely will be skipping this Sadly as I loved the originals

Yep and guns spend 99.99% of their time NOT being fired. Doesn't mean I want a gun holstering simulator lol.

I never really got the impression that CDPR were woke. I'm not someone who claims every game with a lot of diversity is woke, but I also recognize there is such a thing.

Take the Horizon series for example. I enjoyed the first but in Forbidden West they ramped it up so much I couldn't even get through it. Nearly every single strong warrior and leader is female. Every white male is a bumbling worthless idiot, coward, or evil villian with maybe 1-2 exceptions. ...

But by switching to a new engine, wouldn't that give them the possibility to be flashy with good presentation? An open world, go anywhere, do anything game with emergent gameplay, that ALSO has incredible visuals and lifelike characters and animations? That's all I'm asking. I still love their game philosophy I just don't want it to feel like I'm playing Oblivion with a fresh coat of paint. People let them coast for so long Bethesda feels like they can't fail but s...

By joining this Millenium, Im referring to an updated engine that can handle their vision, not them changing their game philosophy. I still love the go anywhere, do anything, emergent gameplay. Sadly their 25 year old cobbled together game engine cannot handle this vision and Starfield is the perfect example.

In Starfield, the outdoor areas looked like absolute trash despite being low res barren wastelands, were not fully open, and everything requires a loading screen wh...

Yeah this is really sad. Morrowind, Oblivion, and Fallout are three of my favorite games of all time, but Starfield just felt so dated to me. Terrible game design and very dated architecture. The visuals in that game alternated between looking top tier to looking 3 gens behind every 5 minutes, and don't even get me started on the terrible menus and constant loading screens. As much as I loved those games, I think i am done with Bethesda as well until they join everyone else in the new ...

Isn't this the game with no combat or damage modeling? Why include a fighter plane? It would be like including a McLaren in a parking simulator.

One of my favorite games of all time. It doesn't look bad by any means, but if they give it a full remake with modern visuals and physics and improve the gameplay (i.e. get rid of the annoying tailing missions), this could be phenomenal!

What was made up about shadows? Don't remember hearing about that.

So you want every game to be linear? I mean I get if you don't like all the collecting or additional side quests, but if you just follow the main story you can make most open games fairly linear. I guess if you just want to jump from mission to mission and walk down a strsight path, but personally I love the freedom to explore, uncover secrets, and just admire the environment on my own pace without constantly being "on a mission".

I doubt they will, but i think the biggest addition would be some soft body physics. I dont think a complete ragdoll but some sort of hybrid where enemies transition to ragdoll partway through their death animations. The canned death animations were good in GoT but got old seeing the exact same enemy kills falling the same way every time and clipping through or levitating over the environment. Graphics are on point but physics still feel 3 generations behind most titles.

It had its high points. Visuals are still some of the best I have ever seen. The areas were also gorgeous and fun to explore and the puzzles were actually good. That being siad the combat felt terrible, the hub area of paititi was boring, and nearly every aspect of the game felt a step backward from Rise. I still love the series and really forward to the next entry but hoping they make it mode similar to rise or even the original reboot.

Lol apparently someone likes insta fail stealth based on the downvote. I'm OK with a section or two, but sounds like a good chunk of the game is restrictive stealth so no thanks. We should have options in this day and age

Completely agree. While I do see the draw of the souls like games, as someone with limited time to game, I never play them. I just can't justify spending days trying to fight the same boss and memorize it's patterns. I miss all the old school action adventure games where I could just relax and unwind and maybe change the difficulty if it was too frustrating. Those games seem to few much rarer these days.

I dont know the more I read about this game the less interested I become. As a long time fan of the franchise, I've been really disappointed with what Disney has done to it lately (its becoming clear they dont respect the original fans or want us to stick around), but was hoping this game might turn things around.

I cant speak for the story, characters, and "star warsiness" but the gameplay screams flop. Not being able to shoot from your speeder, many stea...

Wow kinda surprised at the end that this person "really enjoyed the game". Almost everything they brought up sound incredibly annoying. Not being able to shoot from your speeder, stealth only, memorize the pattern or fail missions (despite them claiming it was wide open for choices), bland combat, Enemies AI from 1998 that can spot you a mile away, only one weapon the entire game, wonky parkour and traversal leading to cheap deaths? Sounds kinda terrible actually. I had a hard t...

To each their own I guess? I really enjoyed them up until odyssey and valhalla was decent. I still really enjoy exploring the massive detailed worlds and the characters, stories, gear, and combat.

I have never once been swayed by a loading screen trying to get me to buy DLC as these games have 10x more content than you would ever see anyway. I do agree the series seems to be going the wrong direction at the moment, but would still highly recommend origins, odyssey, and ...

Sounds like you gotta work through some things buddy. Not everyone hates you and is jealous of you at the same time lol. Some people just don't like seeing history rewritten so the game developer can look "progressive". I'm all for black and diverse casts of characters in games, bring em on! Just make NEW games and NEW stories that don't involve rewriting history and replacing those who actually lived and did these things. AC is fictional but always set in a histor...
