Just so no one's confused... I'm not debating from the stance that NMS is guaranteed success. Only that what's been shown looks like good entertainment, and that I have no reason to assume it's all just bullshit and smoke.

I was just backstage at the Sumo Digital press conference and you'll never believe what I heard. Apparently those "Sack Boys" in their Little Big Planet games that we are all supposed to believe are stuffed toys aren't even filled with real polystyrene beads... it's all bullshit. They're, get this, digital wireframes textured to look like real toys.

Only that what's been shown looks like good entertainment, and that I have no reason to assume it's all just bullshit and smoke. I'm exactly in the same boat. The premise and the art style are so appealing to me that I'm way more excited about NMS than stuff that's almost guaranteed to be good, like Bloodborne. I like exploration games in general, so even if there wasn't much gameplay besides just flying around, I'll be quite happy to do just that for quite a long time. If there's a bunch of other interesting gameplay systems, even better. The game promises so much that there will certainly be tons of people that will be disappointed about what it eventually offers. That's the curse of coming up with something incredibly exciting and generating all that hype.

Did the steam release of FF7 have the w-item glitch in it? I'm not about to farm elixirs to feed the magic pots without it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi_uHSTbL6g Looks like the PC version with anti-aliasing, which is disappointing, especially after we got "remasters" like TLoU and GTA5. It wouldn't take much effort to create at least a bit better character models. I know it kind of fits the artistic style, but goddamn, look at Glottis.

Samurai Sanders posted:I dunno about Dwarf Fortress but in Minecraft you can collect and manipulate things, not to mention fight. If you could do that stuff in this game, wouldn't they have shown that by now? The latest trailer is also just passively observing the world. To me, the most interesting part in Minecraft is the first couple of days. You have to find food and shelter and simply survive. After you've spent a couple of days punching grass and trees, you have enough seeds to never starve and tools to dig for minerals and after that the pretty much the only way you'll die is if you gently caress up somehow. I guess if you never built a shelter, or never settled down anywhere it could get pretty tense, especially outside at night. e: In other words, the "fly to planets and look at pretty animals" gameplay they've shown so far does not look interesting to me.

Well, poo poo. Tomb Raider just crashed to the dashboard and my save file corrupted. Luckily, it backed up the corrupt file to the PS+ cloud, so I'm completely hosed.  Anything else I could try before I start a new game?

Nah it's hosed. Were you at the beach with all the survivors? It doesn't sound like it because that's far enough in to be a 'gently caress this I'm done' situation but for future reference quitting the game while in that area has an extremely high corruption rate that was never fixed so move to a different area before quitting. Also you can switch to a different save slot so you'll be able to continue from a working one if something breaks again.

I just played some PVZ for the first time and wow this game is actually really fun. I just played the defense mode not the pvp mode but I'm surprised how well it all worked out.blackguy32 posted:gently caress that, where is my underwater exploration game, Sony?

They actually put a lot of hidden poo poo in there including sea wrecks and even a crashed UFO.

I just got to the shanty town. Went to open the map after getting the "tomb nearby" ping and it poo poo the bed. I'm guessing I was like 50% in? Welp, I'll be using a few different save slots this time around.

Can't wait to zone out and fly through space, see a planet off in the distance, fly towards it, break through its atmosphere, and find out it's already been discovered by DEEZ_NUTZ_69.

Honestly I'm just glad to have a playable version without pirating or tinkering the poo poo out of it. I'm imagining what it would look like it Double Fine completely redid the visuals and it would lose a lot of the game's charm. Even making it widescreen would sort of ruin it.

Apparently they're trying to keep it VERY faithful to the original, it'll just look better and sharper. One of the big improvements is that the cutscenes will use the original video files and will look a LOT better - not drowned in compression artifacts.

Also that it will run at all, which is a challenge for modern PCs trying to play the original version. They will probably add proper analogue control, rather than having to use tank controls.

virtualboyCOLOR posted:And no mans sky looks like a pretty game that I'll buy on steam and discover is poo poo trash garbage And you still will purchased it. Problem is, what if the PS4 gets it for free from PSN+? Then, you are on the losing end of trash-garbage having investing in raw money for it, instead of getting it as a possible 1/2 PS4(1/6) PSN+ titles in one month. Are you going to deny that sort of freebie, if only to then get more free games to poo poo on? I mean on one hand, $50+ a year in games to poo poo on across three consoles/handhelds or the like, just allows an endless opportunity! Like that branches you out to 3 more more Playstation threads, I mean I don't want to crunch the numbers but let's say you do like 5-10 posts per day in a playstation related thread, about how garbage everything is, along with the superior graphics only a N'Vidia gtx790i can provide, then you can get to something like 25-50 posts a day in about how loving garbage this poo poo is, and then I think we can finally convince the mainstream #gamegate media with how unethical this all is!

I just wanted 1080p widescreen and higher poly models, like what was used in the cutscenes. Oh man, but yeah, I'll take any chance to get a fully playable, non buggy version again.

Stick Figure Mafia posted:Hey guys maybe they're just making a cool space game that lets you explore randomly generated planets and stuff and fly around and go pew pew and there is a response to a trailer that is somewhere between overblown hype and massive cynicism. I know this is the internet and hyperbole reigns and all. But this is a really dumb post. Sorry goons are excited/concerned. People are speculating about a game basted on similar past experiences because whats shown was purposefully vague. Seeing as there are fps hud elements and nothing to do with them, it really seems like they are misrepresenting how the game is going to play. Oh, am I being massively cynical again? I did voice a concern I had.

There was the part of the trailer where he landed on a planet, got out, spun in a circle, and then got back in his spaceship and took off again. I bet they're still trying to get the space travel to work and haven't made the FPS mechanics yet.

A lot of people still don't seem to know what No Man's Sky is, despite the developers explaining how the game works over and over again in every interview. Heres a nice summary courtesy of neogaf quote:● You start on a random planet. Planet may be tough, may be easy. It's procedural.

They showed some of it in the 30 minute behind the scenes thing from GameInformer. It was really interesting. https://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2014/12/05/take-a-30-minute-behind-the-scenes-tour-of-no-mans-sky.aspx They didn't really show off the crafting though, but you can see a glimpse of some of the first person animations off screen during the interview. Really the only things they haven't shown off at this point in a trailer are first person combat and the crafting system which ill assume aren't in a polished enough state that they want to show yet (Game has been in development just a little over 2 years).
