Wow, the main twist or whatever you wanna call it has actually made me think I might not like this. It's real hard to imagine it done well..

Yardbomb posted:Man, The Evil Within 2 was a lot of fun, replayed it not that long ago because I remembered they put the FPS mode into the game, which was a really cool shtick for a return playthrough. I desperately hope there's a 3vil Within someday, Sebastian is a great character and both games were super fun to play. They're seriously almost as good as RE4 imo

I will say this, if - and it's a giant if - the game pulls off the protagonist switch, I'll be seriously impressed. It just seems suuuuuper unlikely.

JustaDamnFool posted:Having that one collectable mentioning the past subjects was a huge mistake because it turned the finale into a dumb numbers game when that poo poo clearly didn't factor into Joel's decision at all. The point of the ending isn't that decision anyway. It's the decision to lie to Ellie, and her decision to believe it.

Telephone spoiler summaries are always gonna be extremely suspect, and doing a switch to Abby is so drastic that I feel like it kind of has to be done fairly well. What I mean is, this game has had a lot of time, oversight, and a hefty legacy to live up to. If people haven't been playing and giving the feedback "yes, I like this story" then I feel like it would have been changed. This isn't an indie studio that can afford to say "gently caress you, this is our ~vision~", if they haven't extensively tested this poo poo out then that'd be an uncharacteristically big whoopsie. Hell, Uncharted 4 sounds dumb as gently caress on paper: Nate has a brother and a nemesis he's conveniently never mentioned at all and now he's back and you're expected to care about him (and even play as him briefly)

Yardbomb posted:The fireflies sucked and killing them was pretty cool and good  But joel was also still a mostly bad person. I mean from the beginning you know he and Tess were all Bonnie and Clyde. Learning to love Ellie didn't make him a good person and it' not even hinted at so there's not much evidence for the Good Joel theory

i must compose posted:I really don't get why people like spec ops so much. I mean it's a cool idea and it's a good story but the gameplay is trash. If you took away the story and just played the game it would be like a forgotten bargain bin game. I wouldn't say that. The gameplay is completely competent and functional, most "bargain bin" games aren't even that.

TLOU also doesn't tell you massive amounts of stuff, like that bottles make more noise than bricks, that having a brick in hand can let you stealth kill a Clicker, etc. Most modern games would have a popup about every single one of those things

I could have sworn that Bear McReary did the music, since TLOU came out during that period of time when he did the soundtrack for literally everything (not that he isn't great at it!)

exquisite tea posted:I have to believe this is due in part to the controversial nature of the leaked gameplay. Like if some cutscenes from FF7R got spoilered a couple months beforehand some people might be pissed, but a lot would be saying "this looks awesome can't wait." Mods are just trying to delay the incredible shitshow as long as possible and who can blame them

Ohhh yeah I had forgotten that fight scene was so controversial Like even if you're gonna go down that road, Drake is characterized as being barely athletic and Nadine is a drat soldier. The fact that Drake can easily punch out all those other soldiers doesn't matter because they're not characters. They're just... gameplay pinatas

a primate posted:I want a game where I’m not on a revenge mission, and just stay in Jackson for most of the game getting to know people, going on hunts for supplies, making some conversation choices, with demon hordes occasionally at the gates. Play Days Gone. Seriously, it's great.

One thing that struck me about Days Gone is how not janky it is. The studio clearly spent a TON of time making sure everything works smoothly, aside from a couple moments where they clearly cut some early content (but the game is incredibly long anyway)

You start playing Days Gone and you're like "huh, pretty good size map" Then there's another map Then another map It's pretty big and by end it's definitely chill to just ride your motorcycle around it
