To be fair though, Siege only gives you a 30-45 minute ban and then you are back in the game, they are not doing a perma ban like this guys is implying.
Okay, so From Software has worked with Activision back in the days of Tenchu, likely before you knew of From Software since it sounds like you came in with Souls rather then Armored Core and Tenchu, so this is not a new partnership.
Secondly they did give it a full unveil trailer, with some gameplay in it. Next we will get a full showcase like how almost every game ever is showcased.
Kind of worried about the talk of not being able to cancel animations, how is jump canceling and other advanced combos supposed to work?
So if you cannot interrupt animations anymore, what becomes of jump canceling other advance play that requires starting an attack, enemy stepping out of it to launch another attack? Are those combos still going to work?
I'm the odd man out here. Both games could learn about classes and variety from Dragons Dogma.
This is good, Sony launching a Mobile game is a solid idea for extra money, then if the franchise turns into something big on Mobile they can return it to consoles in a big way.
Two things.
1: That might mean you have some control over them as you did with Atreus.
2: Atreus was a better AI partner then Ellie with combat choices being made.
Good, needs to fall into a less crowded time slot, new IP's like this won't be able to content, so I'd say try to hit summer of next year during the non busy season.
I don't care about diversity in writing, you write what works for the story and characters and if that means a character is gay, so be it. If the design phase of a character ends up on them being black, white, Asian, Hispanic, or whatever else, so be it.
What I hate is when it's added for the sake of diversity and the character feels like a collection of every stereotype possible.
An example of gay characters done right, Bill and Ellie from The La...
I imagine Sony will (and should) allow cross play but it might take them a little bit.
Genji was an amazing game, and yeah, the second one was one of the biggest disappointments I've ever played.
Not getting cocky, they still have a strong enough line up, but this was more of a Bi-year for their studios, we know what is coming out, and the other announcements are not far enough along to be showcased, so Sony played this year safe and I expect to see more full announcements next year from them.
To be fair, Soul Calibur sells both sexes as an object how how sexy they can make something.
Also, the character artists for SC is Tomoko Imura, who seems to be female from everything I could find. So you are saying that a women does not know how to design a proper female character?
So I think it was a step forward for MS, with a shown effort to increase first party.
for Sony I won't say it was a step back, their format was strange but largely they showcased first party like they normally did, most of what MS did was unveil 3rd party games.
I tend to buy a lot of CE's because I like that statues and such, and the only one I've gotten to come with a season pass is Ghost Recon: Wildlands.
Fallout 4, The Witcher 3, and FFXV all skipped on the season pass.
GDC, March, release it in June.
Game looks amazing.
THAT being said I just think it needs to be said, a kiss is one of the hardest things to animate (See every game that has tried it and made it look strange) and ND just nails it in everything they try to animate, it's crazy how good they are.
It kind of reminds me of Way of the Samurai, which failed to evolve with the times sadly. So I am super excited for this game, looks great so far.
Their conference was a step forward by admitting the need for, and their commitment to 1st party now.
But overall it did nothing to sell their cinference.
I dont know why everytime a game goes mobile it has to choose the worst art style possible.
