Fenixp Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 So... Is it just me or do the (obviously massively edited) Wasteland 3 screenshots looks incredibly dull? Like they're graphically impressive, sure, but looking at them, the scenery just looks incredibly busy without actually using a lot of color. It feels duller than Wasteland 2 and Wasteland 2 was darn dull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Nah, feeling the same. They just don't speak to me. It's like they are just super generic and weird and I am not exactly sure what I am looking at. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

Raithe Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Gamespot - Hitman's Story is Just Getting Started Developer IO Interactive has previously said that it's plan for Hitman on PS4, Xbox One, and PC is to have three seasons. Now, speaking in an interview with GameSpot, lead writer Michael Vogt said that the story is "just getting started" when Season 1 ends. "We wanted to do a really ambitious story line that would span several seasons and also build this ensemble cast," Vogt explained. "In the old games, the targets were always the most interesting characters, but then you'd just kill them off instantly and move on to the next one. And now we wanted to build a much bigger main cast that will survive for much longer. "The story's really only beginning [with the first season]," he continued. "Season 1 is the first act in a feature film. You know all the characters, you know the stakes, you know the dilemma, but it's only getting started." Vogt said the story gets "blown wide open" at the end of Season 1, but noted that players will "get a sense of closure." When asked about why the story has felt like background decoration, as opposed to a proper video game story, Vogt said it's because IO Interactive wanted "at least the first half of Season 1 to feel like business as usual." "You're supposed to feel what it's like to be Agent 47," Vogt said. "You're the best assassin in the world; you're travelling the globe and killing the elite and all that and kinda feeling what it's like for Agent 47 on a Tuesday. "The prologue, which takes place in the past, is definitely on the main story, and then the main story fades into the background and just plays out in the cutscenes where we introduce the main characters... and then towards the end [of Season 1] we merge it again. Colorado is this merging point, where from now on and going forward, the missions and the main story are fully integrated." Hitman's latest episode released a couple weeks ago. Titled "Freedom Fighters" after the beloved IO Interactive game, the episode is set in Colorado and is said to be "the toughest assignment yet," while adding "serious momentum to the story and set[ting] up an intriguing season finale for players." The next episode ends the season and takes place in Japan. The complete first season of Hitman is getting a physical edition in January. It costs $60 and includes every update and piece of content that's been added to the game in Season 1, in addition to some special bonuses. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Raithe Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Yeah. It's where they've lost me with this game I think. Technically, if it was all released in one piece together, you can get away with 5 missions that don't show the storyline, but slowly introduce things. Because you'll swiftly pick up the story that pulls you in. But after 9 months and no real storyline that's catching you as a character, its very awkward to stir up the enthusiasm to go to the next episode. Sure, the gameplay is technically excellent and a lot of fun, but after 3 or 4 episodes of that its only part of what pulls you with a Hitman game.

Agiel Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) New 4A Game! Yay! But it's exclusive to Oculus Touch! Boooo! Edited October 6, 2016 by Agiel Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorophx Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I can't believe people still care about Mafia games. they weren't that good to begin with (well, I guess the first game appealed to people who wanted to play something like GTA but other than GTA) Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

Fenixp Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) So... SuperBunnyHop is doing a video series of "reviews" on... Well, Japan. In the first video, he takes a look at Arcades, in the second, he explores Pachinko parlors and in the third Japanese gaming restaurants and ... Karaoke machines? Not news per se for many people I'd imagine, but a lot of interesting info for us untouched by Japanese culture. Or by socks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcgr2ThIWnk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2iJLy-1IGg Oh right, I can't insert more than two videos.

trulez Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 yeah, apparently Fig throws in a substantial amount of money (in case of Wasteland 3 it's 40% of the goal I think?) Technically Fig doesn't throw anything at the project. It's the investors that invest through Fig that contribute the 40% of the goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyrock Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) Attaching game logic to framerate is some retarded game design. I thought we left that crap behind in the 90s, the early 90s? At least Souls had the excuse of being a console series previously, and you can get away with locking game logic to framerate on console, still really bad practice, though.
