Their marketing team cannot wait for the cosmetic opportunities of Pride month.
There were armor options in Halo 5 especially that were so over-the-top sci-fi they didn't match the tone either. You'd never see players with the helmets that had also-ridiculous super-slim visors, or visors that were just dots/circles.
It's got an 88 on metacritic, tying for their second best reviewed game, and also tying the meta score for Ratchet & Clank and Ghost of Tsushima.
Maybe insomniac is losing their touch too, what a bad score, maybe it is the pandemic
Microsoft has enough money that they can afford any legal fee you could imagine. Cancelling a contract with a competitor as part of a multibillion dollar acquisition could've been done as quickly as signing one of the many documents I'm sure were needed, but they didn't do that.
So yes. It's a game made by a Microsoft-owned studio. Therefore, it's a game made by... Microsoft.
In no order here either:
Tunic
Stray
Silksong
Horizon Forbidden West
BotW2
GOW: Ragnarok
Gotham Knights
Hogwarts: Legacy
But the biggest I'm looking forward to will be to finish off 2021 properly. Deathloop is waiting for me on Steam, Guardians of the Galaxy and Psychonauts on Xbox, Ratchet & Clank on PS5. Instead of Elden Ring, I want to finally sink myself into Sekiro or return to Re...
15 QA team members testing in production
In one CTF match, it lost connection 2-3 times requiring a full restart each disconnect. It was annoying to watch...
But such obvious public errors will definitely prioritize a bug fix at least.
Edit: That being said the HCS itself was pretty well ran. The announcers were good and energetic, just these technical issues sometimes got in the way.
I remember in the announcement demo of UE5 that people here really thought the engine wouldn't run on Xbox. Oh crazy people
And yet it's getting nominated for many GOTY awards, and even wins one. Totally like Shenmue 3, damn you're a bitter piece of work.
Have you even watched a trailer for this game? All you do in any article that paints an MS studio/game in a positive light is complain, downplay, or insult it.
RE Village and no issues? For months the PC version had DRM checks tied to hit animations and ignored the issue until multiple outlets had to call them out.
Fantastic game otherwise but such massive disrespect to PC owners, and hopefully not something we can expect going forward since they have stated PC will be their main platform.
A few months ago I complained about being stuck on Biome 3 too and those stupid stupid drones. Especially when they appear on the bridge and there's like no way to dodge those things!
I'd have to sift through my comment history to find it again but a few people recommended specific weapons for 3. Whenever I go back to the game I'll have to find those recommendations, but my time/skill/whatever just isn't enough for Biome 3. After some dozen or so hours spent...
The speakers really are a nice upgrade too. Finally going to play through Cadence of Hyrule, first thing I redownloaded.
... admittedly that does kinda suck it won't just let you use an SD card from another system. I was too lazy to do a PC transfer
Phil announced a year ago they're already working on the next hardware.
Just got my Switch OLED today. A friend got one Sunday, Best Buy's had in-store-only stock these last few days
The journalist spent the time talking about the character you're going to spend dozens of hours playing as and the context in which she was created/designed. Pretty important in an RPG, and it's pretty important to highlight the type of person they're crafting, that we're supposed to relate to as the player, is someone only present in motion capture and not in the writer's room.
How is he supposed to preview the gameplay the way you want when no journali...
When you're a story-heavy game and the main character is who she is specifically because the game's own DIRECTOR wanted the game to revolve around female characters, it tells you a lot.
Mitsuno says woman or female like five times himself in one paragraph. The game is what it is because they deliberately womanized it from the very beginning of the project.
Don't attack the journalist when this time it's straight from the director's own...
Tactical Slayer variant with only Shock Rifles, then it'll be perfection.
The closest we'll ever get to Unreal Championship/Tournament's Instagib
I replayed these couple seconds during the battle... does she just randomly say "Fuck off" when firing a spell?
Others are right, the performance is pretty bad. And there's a weird disconnect with the sky, it just doesn't look right with the world.
The port has near constant stutter in its default launch mode and the 30fps lock has frame pacing issues.
Even on an RTX3090 at only 1080p.
And it's $70. Tell me what standard you have that makes that acceptable?
