Maybe they'll get lucky and left to work on a game that'll never come out for years.

I'm honest still kind of depressed Microsoft bought Ninja Theory

I'm gonna wait to be depressed until they announce their next project. If it's something as out there and weird as Hellblade, then cool. If it's Halo Mappack 13, then :emo:

Eh, Hellblade was decent, everything else they've done has been mediocre to trash.
Sucks that they're gonna get whatever they work on cancelled halfway through and the company ruined though.

I've pretty much like everything I've played by then to some degree.:shrug: DmC and Enslaved had plot issues but that's really not a deal breaker in those cases for me

Maybe MS won't screw them over or completely waste them but I'm not hopeful.

If NT does show off a really cool-looking game though I hope it's available for PC too because I do not want to buy an X-Box Two.

Not anymore though though there's still a couple of things that came out before they changed policy that are Bone exclusive like Rare Replay and Sunset Overdrive.

I think Halo, Gears etc. are exclusive to the console but most of their in-house properties have really fallen off in notoriety since the last generation. Since they're showing some signs of life again maybe they'll attempt to make some of their killer apps platform exclusives in the next gen though, who knows.

I'm really hoping the new Assassin's Creed is good since I didn't get a chance to play Origins and ancient Greece sounds like a great setting, but early impressions haven't filled me with confidence. Apparently it doesn't have the engaging story and characters of Origins and instead just has way more content.

Assassin's Creed 2 is still my favorite because I loved the characters and was invested in Ezio's story, I don't really come to these games because I'm dying for another Ubisoft Open-World :sigh:

Maybe I should just play Origins instead, I dunno.

It just seems more concerned with having a style than actually using that style for any purpose. I'm not objecting to drawing characters in way that does not look like them, but the characters just don't look that good. It's a picture more about the artists personality than the characters with no effort put forth to merge the two. It's in this uncomfortable middle ground where it's not quite far enough from source to be it's own thing but also too far for the style not to be the only noticeable part of the picture. It's also just sort of bland with only Usagi showing much personality and with the rest just sort of giving blank stares. Like, what is even happeing in this picture? Usagi is happy and the rest are mildly annoyed by this?

But overall it's just not a very pleasing or interesting style and man those are some badly drawn hands.

The clothes are nice though.

Two was cool cause you got to kick the pope.
Origins was awesome because Bayek had a heart of gold, that little quest where he dove off buildings for an ever increasing group of kids was fantastic.
Odyssey better not suck.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Sora seems pretty casual about the rampant body modification he goes through traveling between worlds. He always has a positive attitude about being turned into a mermaid or an action figure or whatever when I think I would scream until I passed out the first time Disney took away my genitals.

Very little media about someone being transformed into something really seems to focus all that much on how hosed up it would actually be to have your body be transformed.

My understanding was that that last terrible Fantastic Four movie really wanted to focus on the body horror and how hosed up it would actually be to get powers like that, but the studio loving hated it and cut the film into ribbons.
