RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS


Recommended Posts

when Cerberus falls down from the cliff, he grabs someone at the last second and drags the poor sob with him (at least that's the impression that I got, the editing in the video was a bit too wonky)

jeez what a mess of ideas and styles... I always wondered how mixing Lord of the Rings and Starship Troopers would look, and now I know  :disguise:

 

Yeah, lot of mixed feelings about FFXV here as well :(

 

I hate openworld games, I hate action hack and slash, I hate soap operas, I hate boybands...

 

Somebody please tell me at least one thing, which will make me stop to regret my preorder of Limited Edition...

 

PLEASE!!! Just one is enough!!!

What other AAA is there to look forward to? Aside from perhaps Kingdom Come Deliverance.

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

Well, I am slowly getting less and less interesting to AAA titles because all of the handholding, bland MMO-like quests without descriptions, direct pointers to quest objectives, which cannot be turned off in most cases... Why they are bothering with the open world stuff, when all you need to do is blindly following the quest arrow? I do not see any difference compared to linear "follow corridor" games. Well maybe, when staff is busy with corridors only, they have more time to create more original quests, than kill 20 rats or bring me 20 rat pelts...

You can say that again. I thought I was the only one to complain about that. The characters don't really match the style of the environment, and the chocobos look completely out of place. I'm not sure if I'd play it if I got my hands on a console or if it came to PC.

I hate soap operas, I hate boybands...

Why are you even considering buying a Final Fantasy game then?

FFXV is first FF introducing jpoop boyband party, so I do not understand your logic behind that question.

FFXV is first FF introducing jpoop boyband party, so I do not understand your logic behind that question.

I'm guessing he's talking bout since 8 where everyone looked and acted like they were part of a boy band and the amount of drama was in the story. They tried to go back to the roots of "medieval fantasy" with 9 (and imho did a great job) but was not well received, so the boy band "style" and the soap opera drama continued on to the later games.

Pretty boys with crazy hair styles and melodrama have been a mainstay of the series for as long as they had the ability to render that. I'd honestly even shove many of the beloved pre-7 titles in that same category.

 

Personally, I find that kind of excessive cheesy with larger than life melodramatic stories delivered in hammy ways pretty entertaining, it's a not-so-guilty pleasure of mine, but I don't understand why anyone would indulge into the games if they hated that sort of stuff.

I played all of the FF games strictly for its combat and summons in particular. I loved collecting those, it was my childhood's Pokemon of sorts. still remember how excited I was to get Ifrit for the first time in FFVIII. I can't believe it was almost 17 years ago.

Same with me. FF for me is all about combat, superbosses and summons. I have finished all FF games except FFIII, IV-After years and XII-Revenant Wings. Unfortunately FFXV has gone the action route, which I really hate, but I am still hoping that the game will not suck walrus balls.

 

If I'll be disapointed, it will be last FF game, for which I will pay full price.

Looks cheesy as hell. For Gothic and Risen it kinda still worked. But now? I dunno...

 

It's funny, though, 10 or what years ago I was toying around with the idea to make a Gothic mod set in some kind of Highlander-like post apocalyptic world. It was set in a big old fortified skyscraper. People were using swords and bows and stuff. Hot air balloons in the sky, etc. I still like the idea, but today it's nothing fancy anymore.

Expeditions: Vikings is quietly shaping up to be my most anticipated game, it's looking very nice and the feature set sounds ambitious and far more RPG heavy than most RPGs.

Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.

I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin.

Early 2017 apparently.

  I hated Expedition, good concept but it was ruined by arbitrary rules that made no sense. AKA: GM on a powertrip, punch them and don't waste your time.

It's not? I mean, there's a lot of fantasy with minor futuristic elements, but I don't think I've ever seen an RPG go quite this far with it.

 

I know I'm going to love this game. There's just something about Piranha Bytes' work that tickles me pink.

Yeah, besides, I don't think Piranha Bytes has ever produced anything rightdown terrible. There's Risen 3 I suppose, but even that's average at worst and, at least in my case, the setting can carry the game.
