I assumed it was just me, appreciate the explanation. I like this site and won't easily give up on it but the technical issues are frustrating.
Aaaand it's gone.
I'm not an expert and feel free to take my opinion with a handful of salt but I think Sony overpaid for Bungie. It was a hell of a lot of money, they only have one IP worth mentioning and it seems there were significant issues with how they were being run.
I don't think the question here is wtf is Sony smoking.
Pretty good, Lego for the kids and a Metroidvania I didn't quite get round to for me.
I'd say the Fallout show is a notch or two below The Last of Us. Both good quality faithful adaptations though.
Twisted Metal was a fun watch, didn't really expect to like it but it had a lot of charm.
The weather effects are very nice as are the improvements to the water. Interested to see what else this update brings, it seems to be focusing on things I like.
I didn't like Infinite much either, before a shot was fired it was amazing but it went downhill after that. Too much action and not enough interesting lore/atmosphere.
I think it's a fair criticism but it's also understandable it's like that in a game of that scale. Could be the case that for his next open world game Miyazaki will dial it back slightly in order to reuse assets less but if not, I'm fine with that.
Compared to most open world games the number of unique or nearly unique enemies and bosses is very high I'd say.
In two minds on this, I think on the whole they should stick with how they currently handle quests. It fits in with the intrinsic mysterious impenetrable nature of the games.
It's certainly less practical in a huge game like ER but using a guide is a viable option and solves the problem.
Awesome. Get a job and stop being a pest. Nobody wants it.
It's a shame that the level of environmental destruction in this series was treated as a novelty and not followed up.
I get that tightly controlling the gamer's experience is desirable but there must be some scope for some games to let people go nuts and for it to still make sense from a design perspective.
"XDefiant is a game that can be interrogated over its utility in the current shooter market and have no good answer. Sure, maybe a pie slice from CoD shows its market utility, but nothing else"
Probably a difficult task to interrogate a game.
"The mechanical foundation operates and most maps are at least decently composed"
Glad to hear the mechanical foundation operates.
I don't know if this ...
It's a shame they tried to copy GTA, they were terrible at it. If they'd doubled down on making the driving the star they could still be going now.
That could work as long as you were one of the boys. Fairly traditional setup with a different supe as boss for each level.
You'd think it was time for a new setting. It can't be that hard to come up with a story set in another city, does the lad never go on holiday? Does all the significant crime in the world happen only in NY?
I they got away with it with the second game but a third game set in NY is really pushing it for me.
Incidentally I love the skeleton, beautiful colours and imagery.
You have no choice other than to crack on and hope for the best.
Konami's lead producer on the series said that Konami are “very sorry the game wasn’t up to standards.”
If that's not an apology I don't know what is.
Read the article and I'm zero percent better informed on the child abuse aspect of Roblox.
