Castlevania SOTN hasn't aged a day. It hasn't been matched yet let alone surpassed.
Not the most inspiring video I've ever seen but it looks solid at least.
I thought it was more fun on DM, on normal difficulty I cruised through the whole game just using the Gourmet perk, switched to DM for NG+ and had to really think about my build and play the game properly.
So when you say stop thinking like shareholders you mean stop thinking about it from Sony's point of view, because apparently they don't deserve to have one.
It seems very harsh to label a game as straight up "bad" because it lacks a bit of originality and flair. The author must be one of those people that thinks there are only two types of games, those which score a 9 or 10/10 and the rest, which are "bad" games.
The page is unreadable for me, as in the towers that would unlock more of the map?
I think it's wise that they move away from the traditional series mechanics. I don't know about anyone else but I played a lot of FC2 and by about the halfway point of FC3 I was bored of the gameplay. I bought FC4 but the new setting didn't mask the same old same old mechanics. It needs a shake up.
It is a bit daft, the AI gets away with murder, almost literally. There should be a slider for referee leniency.
Regarding the article these are the sort of changes and improvements that I like to see, no need to reinvent the wheel but there are hundreds of small things that can be worked on to make it more immersive.
Worrying about ludonarrative dissonance keeps me up all night.
Bit of a daft quote "you can experience extraordinary situations but you will not have to worry too much about why."
Gives the impression that either the game will be dumb or they're going to treat the players like they are. Anyway, it seems like it's going to be a monster game and let's hope it's as good as Mass Effect but brought right up to date.
The investigation into whether they deliberately misled people found them not guilty so people need to get over it and shut up about it.
I'd argue that they do deserve a second chance because since the game launched, rather than sit on their laurels and watch the money roll in, they've been grafting away to produce free updates to please consumers.
If I were them I'd work on a combat and mission based update, rescue missions and bounty hunti...
It is noticeable that MS suddenly had a change of heart when it became clear they were losing the battle to Sony, and now people are expecting Sony to sing to their tune? I can see why they don't want to.
Is there something wrong with my logic or wouldn't it hugely impact game sales if people only had to buy one copy per game rather than one for each platform?
I tend to only buy games that I really like the sound of or pretty much know for a fact I'm going to like, so I almost always complete the story mode. I'm not a fan of having ten games all in rotation I prefer to focus on one or two at a time.
The last game I didn't finish was The Evil Within, think I got up to the last level but for whatever reason it had started to feel like a chore and I never bothered to cross the line with it. If you're not enjoying it...
There's something so generic looking about this game, like all the top open world RPGs got thrown in a blender but lost a lot of nutrients in the process. It does look like a big game though and that always gets attention.
Anything to do with people arguing about whose console is best is very sad and cringeworthy. When it comes from a dev bragging about a game like this it just makes them look like deluded tits.
Yeah the father and son dynamic, and mechanic is the one thing I'm a little dubious about. The series isn't known for its deep emotional relationships or any kind of interaction beyond shagging or twisting heads off so it's new territory for them.
Having said that it looks promising, their relationship in the earlier trailer looked and felt real and natural and I doubt they'd be stupid enough to allow it to get in the way of tearing enemies in half.
I know what you mean but I think it's one of those times that they aren't showing much off and are keeping their cards close to their chest. I like the slower pace personally but it's a legitimate concern because it does seem different.
The series needed to progress otherwise it would have felt stale and seeing as they can't beat GOW3 for bigger and better they've changed other aspects, I think it'll work and there's a lot more to come.
I wish there was no such thing as an exclusive, it would spell the end of the so called 'console wars' which is a glorified name for a load of utterly pathetic whinging and bickering.
Great stuff. There's a few of these sort of 2D Souls, Metroid and Lovecraft blends knocking around at the moment but this one looks the best. Got to love those nasty little sadistic kills, casually chucking the carved out heart onto the dead body. Brutal but cool.
Holy crap. That looks amazing.
I could write a novel on what PES should do to make the game better but I think it'd fall on deaf ears, they're pretty much set in their ways. Still the best footy games gameplay wise but they could be so much better.
