I want to see more wildlife online. I used to love going to that cabin in the snow and trying to fight off all of the cougars. Sadly, I don't think there were any bears online.

El Jebus posted:Farcry by the Onion? That would be even better. I could see it working pretty well if they're trying to eat Red Dead's lunch with actually being 1800 indian-cowboy type game riding Buffalos around, but running around with sniper rifles, smgs and shotguns and poo poo just doesn't seem like it's going to be interesting. I guess we'll know more soon but just using modern montana scenary doesn't bode too well.

Actually if Far Cry 5 is you playing Sioux/Blackfoot/Crow Native kid from a rez taking out lovely christian gangsters for your grandfather's casino or something like that it'd be a day 1 purchase for me. Also it's neat to think of kids in Africa or Caribbean or Asia getting to play this and being like "whoa, America is actually kind of pretty, since I literally have no concept of what it looks like outside of NYC and LA, where every movie takes place"

I think the current rumor is that you play as an African-American cop who tracks a criminal to Montana and gets sucked into the weirdness going on there

I never really thought of it like that. More games should take place in less urban areas and outside of the same handful of cities that every game seems to take place in.

I just beat The Last of Us. It wasn't that great. Uncharted 4 is a million times better. Is there multiple endings or something? I thought I was supposed to be sad or something. The game peaked in the first 10 minutes. Maybe the 'Best Game Ever' billing was too much. I feel like Rise of the Tomb Raider was the same way in a "Meh. Whatever" ending.

OxMan posted:Only drugs can make you feel alive now. I mean, with The Last of Us.. Basically, there are others that are immune. They have done the surgery on them and still failed to get the cure out of it. Ellie either maybe could have saved humanity or just as much of a chance would have died for nothing? So the Uncharted guy was like nah, you guys can go find another one, I'm not really cool with that if there's other ones. And I really should have used my flame thrower more. Bye, Marlenicia.

tlou is mainly about not finding a thing for a really long time until you do and don't want it anymore. the lesson is that you should take swimming lessons.

I guess another thing you could do is an extremely Lousiana-redneck deliverance bayou setting, which would be cool if they did like an 1800s new orleans open-world bayou setting with paddle boats and poo poo. Probably not that interesting as a modern open-world game, but it coudl make for a good linear killing-rednecks deliverance-esque shooter ala Call of Juarez: Gunslinger

Xaris posted:There's really not that much interesting to America outside of certain areas, 80% of it is flat flyover snoozefest. There's a difference in what you're trying to accomplish time-wise and if it's like linear vs open. City areas work best for open world games (Sleeping Dogs, Assassins Creed, Arkham, Yak, etc). I loving love Utah-Zion-Byrce-Arches-Moab-Sedona southwest area and go there often, and it's cool but would not make for a very interesting open-world game outside of being a western really and has been done for that. Or you do a future post-apocalyptic setting there like Mad Max or Fallout. There have been multiple open world games set in that region in the past couple of years. I mean, I guess you covered them all by listing the multiple genres that would be best for that area, so it sounds like a lot of designers have had the same idea Xaris posted:I guess another thing you could do is an extremely Lousiana-redneck deliverance bayou setting, which would be cool if they did like an 1800s new orleans open-world bayou setting with paddle boats and poo poo.

GTA Online had a really lovely barrier to entry. I've had a lot of fun with it but I was there from day one and I could easily see it being overwhelming to someone starting from scratch, even if you aren't trying to PVP. But they absolutely had the right idea with making all the DLC itself free and simply selling money as opposed to Call of Duty-style season passes or content packs or whatever. I had no problem leaving the more expensive low-functionality stuff to the whales, and had plenty of money to buy into the actual gameplay updates (business properties, car garages, biker clubs) with just my in-game earnings. So I think there's something to get hyped for sight-unseen about whatever online is in RDR2.

I quit playing like a year before the first heist actually even came out so maybe it got better, but I just thought the content was horrible. "what should I do?! Play this lovely death match or lovely race? Lets wait for 4 minutes of loading and matchmaking for some nonsense that lasts 45 seconds. Then I'll go get shot in the head while buying a Tshirt." And that was after what, 4 months of it being broken to the point that it was unplayable? I'd rather play an online game that does one thing well vs something that does 50 things poorly.

Lots of little things wrong with GTAO but paramount was their general philosophy of punishment for violence and larceny against other players in a game that was all about violence and larceny.

They certainly know how to build on what they've done at least, GTA Online borrowed heavily from Max Payne 3 and the original RDR online.

I honestly think the core of GTA O was very fun. The main thing that stopped me was that I just have so many other games to play. There are some goons on my friends list that still play it religiously. What really killed a lot of the fun for me was the armored Kuruma. After that came out, 90 percent of the players were driving with it and it made missions even less interesting than what they were before.

Heck yeah, Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is getting a PS4 release according to Famitsu. Maybe now consoles can get a 1080p/60fps version like the PC release! Always appreciate another opportunity to buy Dragon's Dogma.
