I mean there was nothing wrong the the concept of ‘fly around in a suit and blow poo poo up’, the execution, plot, loot, enemies, and progression was just bad. I hope dinosaur version doesn’t suck as much as the original.

Edit; apparently it’s multiplayer only ?

Edit2; 5v5 pvpve horde shooter? What the gently caress?

The tiny amounts of cutscenes and character stuff in the trailer immedediately made me think of Anthem, more than the exosuits. It just has that same feel to it of characters talking at you and doing bad exposition, though it seems like this game might be more aware of how silly the setting is.

If the game has huge enemy counts and let's me mow down enemies like EDF then it might turn out okay.

EDIT: From the official website:

quote:

Dino Survival, the main game mode, sees two teams of five players compete in a variety of PvE and PvP missions.

Players will be transported to the scene of the latest dinosaur outbreak and follow Leviathan's guidance to complete objectives. The team that completes the mission first will emerge victorious.

Whether players are engaging the other team directly, or fighting alongside them against a common enemy, the aim is to accomplish objectives as quickly as possible.

They also outline the holy trinity of "Assault, Tank, Support" on the website. Online-only, lol. EDF this is not.

You did a super job wrapping things up! And I'm not just saying that because I have to!
Of all the embarrassing gaming fiascos in the second half of the 2010s, I think this might be the greatest of them. Remember when they dithered around and didn't start actually making anything until 2017? After there was a reveal trailer at E3?

Cyberpunk was just CD Projekt Red setting themselves up for failure. Honestly it’ll probably end up being a good game once all the post launch support is done, but anyone with half a brain could tell that the launch of cyberpunk was going to be a shitshow, because every cd projekt red game is a horrible mess at launch. Every single Witcher game was buggy as gently caress, and Cyberpunk was them wayyy overreaching

The Witcher games were always exceptionally good Eurojank, and suddenly they were expected to transition into making the biggest game the industry had seen since GTAV. It was never going to end well. Even after all the patches the game will still be a buggy mess whose systems you can break over their knee, which is fun in its own right, but absolutely not the definitive sci-fi mega game the ads promised.

Yes.
I would like you all to know that I'm currently installing Anthem, because it's on Game Pass and my cousin has never played it so we figured hey, might as well go for an evening of stompy shooty mech suit action.

I still maintain that the very core of the game, i.e. the action, is a lot of fun, Bioware just completely hosed up building an actual game around it.
