They're doing a Guardians of the Galaxy game and helping with Tomb Raider. Deus Ex didn't sell well enough.

I realize some people find it realistic but to me personally that will always be frustrating. Your loss. Best game of 2016.

I mean, you COULD sell a single story by the act but you have to make sure that act is really drat good and Mankind Divided's act is really bland.

It's at least very high up there. The attention to detail and quality of design is absolutely insane. I won't spoil them but there are a couple of parts that are hands down the most epic things I have seen in a video game. The only downside is that video game animals will forever look like poo poo to me after trico.

Square went chasing licensed product cash according to recent reports and took Crystal deeznuts and eidosnuts off of what they were failing to sell 10 million copies of and put them on mahvel properties. just blow up what was rumored to be a 3 part DE trilogy starting with the recent one. lol.

Got to Mission 10 in Double Dragon 4. Feels like a half assed fanmade game. Its still playable and the retro music is good. Stages are too flat and its mainly just simple walking along, not as much details. Not enough pits or bridges like 1 and 2. Glad its only 7 bucks, but it sure feels like a lower budget game. If you're a DD fan its worth it. Getting a new game after so many years is like a miracle. (Neon was good but not made by Technos.)

LMAO SquareEnixEidos actually had an almost complete new Legacy of Kain game but they canned that too, it was one of the casualties of Final Fantasy XIV being released in an awful state and Square blaming their huge loss of money on it on everything BUT it, it's what became the pay to win online game that came out a few years ago. For real though Human Revolution had so much work put into it and they still didn't give them time to put in stuff like the entire backstory of the bosses but I'm not surprised about the new one not selling well.

This whole Deus Ex thing feels extremely similar to how the Tomb Raider reboot was treated a few years ago (being called a financial disappointment to write off their company losses on something). I'm surprised the comparison hasn't been brought up more often.

TFRazorsaw posted:Seriously though how many first party games from Sony have added up to disappointment at this point? Sony as a publisher has given us Equinox: Solstice II, WarHawk, Jumping Flash!, Alundra, Twisted Metal 2, PaRappa the Rapper, Shadow of the Colossus, Demon's Souls, The Last of Us, and Bloodborne, so I give them a free pass for eternity. Bombadilillo posted:It was probably the cinematic nature of the original reveal and hudless running around I saw. When they added markers everywhere it went from something I HAD to experience the awe and wonder of to something I guess I'll checkout if the gameplay is something special. This is exactly how I have felt about it. I was so hyped when the teaser trailer segued into the ingame graphics with just the world out there and her running out to find adventure. Then with each passing review it got more and more cookie cutter looking. The dumbest thing though is how they made all these cool looking robot dinosaurs and animals and they all glow with this obvious THIS ROBOT IS RED IT WANTS TO HURT YOU/THIS ROBOT IS BLUE YOU CAN DO STUFF WITH IT. mycot posted:This whole Deus Ex thing feels extremely similar to how the Tomb Raider reboot was treated a few years ago (being called a financial disappointment to write off their company losses on something). I'm surprised the comparison hasn't been brought up more often. For real they threw the Eidos part of the company under the bus, singling out Tomb Raider, Human Revolution and even Hitman Absolution as the reason they were failing. But the executive who gave that keynote got promoted/transferred into uselessness and the new guy was immediately talking about how that was a mistak eand they're proud of what Eidos has to offer. Maybe at when you reach executive level at Square you get two letters in your desk one is "praise all the games that just game out," and the second is "dis all the games and leave." On the upside, if an MCU game comes out of this that's actually good I guess that's cool. I mean if they actually gave them a real budget and time and they just made a Mass Effect clone but about Guardians of the Galaxy that would be legit awesome. Or an M rated game based on the Netflix Marvel stuff, that's something they could even just reuse the structure of Deus Ex for and it would be huge. That's always frustrating because you could make potentially amazing games out of anything and in these cases you already have cool characters and settings ready to go but you know Square will just make them churn out whatever poo poo.

Neo Rasa posted:It's lazy as gently caress imo. How would you suggest they do it? From all indications determining a robot dinosaur's attitude towards you is a fairly important part of the gameplay so it can't be something that takes too long or is too ambiguous. We also know that robots can be converted to and from your allegiance so just what kind of robot it is wouldn't be enough to tell you this.

We also know that robots can be converted to and from your allegiance so just what kind of robot it is wouldn't be enough to tell you this. Ideally through animation and sound. In real life an animal can be unpredictable but if an animal is pissed and wants to kill something or is actively hunting after something or is pretty chill in the heat of the moment it's pretty obvious. I'm not asking for motion capture or anything like that just, like, make the animal look and sound pissed at you vs. being chill with you? It was one of the things that made me uninterested in the game, like you say, knowing where the animals are at regarding what they think of you at a given moment is supposed to be an important part of the game. "The concept explores the contrast between the beauty and danger of the world." was part of the official announcement. If that's the case, and they put that little work visually into how the animals behave towards you that they need to be glowing blue or red to know if they're good or bad, like, what was even going on for the past six years? It's just generic to me rather than something potentially unique. Detective No. 27 posted:If only some other monster hunting franchise existed for them to steal ideas from...

So you want the player to have to differentiate the mood of these things in real time while half a dozen are attacking and 3 others are defending. Does the phrase cluster gently caress mean anything to you?

It sounds good on paper, but they tried this for The Last Guardian and tons of people think the game is obtuse and glitchy even though there's only one animal and they had way longer to polish it.
