There's a point in the second act when you can tell the devs/writers ran out of time and/or interest and had to wrap things up. Not that the story in Rage was particularly creative or nuanced but it kinda just skips straight to "... then the bad guy died. The good guys won and everyone lived happily ever after. THE END."

Review copies are out and the embargo lifts on the 13th, usually a good indication the devs have faith in the game. Here's a preview from the guy who's probably spent the most time in rage 2 so far: link

Crabtree posted:If you don't care about language barriers here's a french bethesda stream of them playing the game for about an hour. From a missionish area, to looking into towns, driving around, generic combat, some exploration around and - unfortunately, the return of racing minigames. The racing minigames weren't bad. The board game one wasn't either. That five finger filet one can go gently caress itself though...

I had Rage for the 360, I must've picked it up for £10 not more than a couple of months after launch. I actually really enjoyed the gunplay, the various ammo types for the guns was a great little addition as who doesn't love a game that's so stupid you can shoot bullets that shoot more bullets themselves?? One of the things about it that I enjoyed and was kinda surprised at when I found out about it was the way you got out of the various bases you wandered into. Most games would have you complete it then re-load you into the main area or have you wander back. Rage always had a quick escape route back to the main map in the form of a zipline. It was such a simple thing to do I wondered why I'd never seen it before. 2 looks really fun, I'll definitely grab it.

The first RAGE had probably the best bullet impact physics&animations of the shooter genre. Stuff actually reacted properly to being hit. Not sure how I feel about the sequel though, to me it seems they wanted to go all out Fury Road but drifted into Borderlands 2 territory.

I like that stuff too. I think the Souls games are the king of that kind of design. Some people might think of this design as contrived but I always love walking into a space and being wowed by the fact that the game was able to hide that I circled around back to where I started. If it's done well, and it usually is, you don't even notice it. The zipline technique is cool too. Whatever way they do it, anything is better than the Skyrim way of making you trudge alllllll the loving way back through the big empty dungeon you just cleared.

Then you better get ready for more of that cause opening up a ladder/zipline back to the start is how Mad Max handled getting back to the start of the larger outposts/bases.

Not sure how Just Cause handled things as I haven't played any of the recent games but hopefully they'll keep design philosophy similar to Mad Max and either give you a shortcut out the location or build things in such a way that you enter on on side and exit out another so you don't need to run back through an area you already cleared.

I still hope a lot of it is just the usual Bethesda/Zennimax being terrible at marketing. Had been true for doom 4, prey and Dishonored.

Psychotic Weasel posted:Most dungeons in Skyrim twisted back on themselves and gave the player a handy shortcut right back to the entrance (mostly via inaccessible doors or one way switches), didn't they? They don't do dungeons in Just Cause, the whole thing is basically that Rico can fly and his grapple hook lets him zip along to anything within like 50 meters super fast. So the game design doesn't even touch on a concept like a linear dungeon.

Bethesda's declared game journalists (or "game journalists" as Bethesda calls them) persona non gratin and, for the past few years, has quietly been amassing a growing body of them in a section of unincorporated Montgomery County. Nobody really cares about any this because everybody assumes it's somebody else's responsibility. There are places in rural Maryland where you can see 12-foot high fences tipped with barbed wire. What is Bethesda doing with all of that acreage? There's a photo of IGN staff members "re-drafting" a review of Fallout 76; Bethesda says they're free to leave whenever they want but only after the review reflects "correct thought".

on one hand, Bethesda is a lovely evil corporation nobody should ever defend simply on principle of being a corporation, on the other hand "games journalists" are basically independent critics at best and unofficial members of the game industry's marketing wing, so gently caress all of em who cares this game looks cool and fun but also like it might ultimately be bad, tho DOOM gives me some hope. won't be paying $80 for it either way
