because the news of the last two tomb raider games was "we spent too much on this and it failed to sell 16 million units like we needed"

I thought the second one did fine once it was no longer an Xbox One exclusive.

Yea it's pretty cool/unprecedented that they released the IP to iO9 when they dropped them though. Honestly between that, Nier: A and FFXV , Square-Enix is in my good books and have my blessing to spend a hundred million dollars on some western third person shooter garbage just to blow of some steam

True, I'm just bummed that Hitman season 2 won't be all it could've been without the support of a big publisher, but I'm really glad IOI got to retain the IP.

They were already mostly done with season 2 by the time of the split so it shouldn’t make too much of a difference

mad max was a super formulaic open world type game but the vehicle combat was really good. rage 2 could turn out cool.

If it’s one thing I want more of in a first person shooter, it’s driving sequences.

it wasn't so much how bad the driving and open world poo poo in rage 1 was, although it was pretty bad, it was that it broke up the flow of encounters to do meaningless poo poo that mostly involved resource gathering and crafting. it wasn't like the world was cool to explore, since it was a big bland plane with craters.

yeah i agree. a more tight linear structure would have been better.

unfortunately adding unnecessary crafting and rpg elements hasn't gone out of style but the gameplay trailer they released today looks ok so who knows.

no, theres a open world you can drive around and like 10 items you can pick up in the world for upgrades, and kinda a borderlandsy town, but besides that you are just driving to level start doors and the actual levels are normal fps levels and its a fun fps

Maybe I'm just paranoid but some of the parts in that trailer looked multiplayer to me, which would be a weird thing to not announce yet but idk everything about that game is weird so far. Normally multiplayer would be a good thing but I wonder if Bethesda is trying to make their own Destiny/Anthem style game (come on, you know they've got to) and decided Rage was the franchise for it . The trailer looked fun but I don't want to play it if it's a loot shooter

It's 100% a loot shooter you can tell because the first trailer was just borderlands
