You pretty much summed it up.
From the trailers the butch looking characters were very unappealing and it just looked generic overall.
I have not played it but single player games are my thing. This just looked generic on every level with horrible art design and very unappealing characters. Even the music in the launch trailer was bad.
Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
Indeed. Sounds pretty accurate.
Same.
Would be if it wasn't so sad.
I would have also but will be busy with Dragon's Dogma. Such bad timing. Nothing to play for the next month then Ronin and Dogma on the same day?! Poor planning.
Will get it eventually though. Love the Wo Long and Nioh games. Stellar Blade is also at the top of my to get list.
Have had this on my PS wishlist for years now along with Stellar Blade. Finally!
@isarai I don't really like online games. They have an expiry date. I like to go back and play my favourite games multiple times, sometimes many years later (e.g. I still play the Suda 51/Grasshopper Manufacture games from PS3 every few years). Hard to do if the game is online only and is no longer supported.
I like playing some co-op/multiplayer at times but ideally not online.
...except for the 'cooperative online game' part.
Super dodgy.
They could at least add an option to use the in game fight money that you earn as an alternative to real money. For example 1 million Fight money = $1 for DLC items/costumes. I feel like that would be a more fair way to do things if they really feel the need to add micro-transactions.
I think it will be a great game but releasing on the same day as Dragons Dogma 2 seems like a big mistake.
17+ rating? That is hilarious. Most young teenagers 13+ have unbridled access to the internet and all it contains these days. Some people are just delusional.
Hoping we get a demo for this game. I think it would boost sales if the combat/game play holds up (which I really hope it does).
True but the GaaS was this games real downfall. Once you implement that all of the systems are built around season passes and micro-transactions.
I will buy it if they turn it into an offline game with all the DLC included (no micro-transactions thanks).
The real issue with this game is that it is an online only GaaS game. It charges you full price (more than full price, it is $160 for the "Deluxe Edition" in Australia when physical copies of most games are realistically $80-$100).
After paying full price you can then look forward to a constant stream of cosmetic items (which people want)...
Stellar Blade, Dragons Dogma 2, Judas, lots of great looking games.
It does look sick. The customisation also looks great. This really has a next gen Bayonetta/Nier vibe that I am 100% up for.
It does. I also like the voice acting. Nice accents.
I know it's not what they're going for but if this game had character creation and customisation options I would be far more interested.
As it stands, I will wait for Dragon's Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin.
