MH Knights posted:How hard is it to buy a PS5 for MSRP these days? If you’re willing to pre-enter all your CC information into Best Buy, Target, Walmart, Amazon etc and camp out on a Discord for a couple weeks smashing the add to cart button as soon as a notification pops up, then you can get a PS5. We’re still far away from being able to just walk into a store and get one, though.

I do wish someone at Guerilla had seen people actually fight or had some sense of the physics of two people fighting, because that stupid move she keeps doing in the new game is driving me crazy. It's the one where she jumps onto the enemy as if they are a vertical platform, then pushes off flying backwards 10 or 15 feet. The enemy shows little or no sign that a 100lb+ human has just landed on them nor pushed off of them hard enough to fly backwards five yards. There are so many awesome fighting styles and moves that still don't get used much in movies and video games but we get the same crap over and over or we get Guerilla trying to be different but coming up with stuff that is more at home in pro wrestling.

Cactus posted:Yeah I've I was never hyped about Cyberpunk 2077 precisely because it was an entirely new genre, with different assets, mechanics, development workflows, etc etc. It was a big ask for someone who made a series of janky euro RPGs (yes, Witcher 3 is janky as hell, and it doesn't utilize its open world that well) to make a GTA/Deus Ex hybrid. Horizon Forbidden West? God of War Ragnarok? Elden Ring? They build upon years of institutional knowledge within the studio. I'm confident they will be good. And I'll also acknowledge that HFW is actually the riskiest of the 3 games I mentioned, because despite HZD's quality at release, it had a shaky development history: they got lucky the first time.

Here are some previews of what Forbidden West will look like on a PS4(Pro). The resolution is a bit fuzzier and it's obviously locked to 30fps, but the texture quality and draw distance still look to be an improvement over Zero Dawn. That new Utaru settlement looks amazing! Like something right out of Dinotopia. https://thumbs.gfycat.com/PinkFittingBoaconstrictor-mobile.mp4 https://thumbs.gfycat.com/ClutteredWeirdAmethystgemclam-mobile.mp4

It's 100% gonna be Horizon Far Zenith, taking one initial from both of the previous games and thus confusing people forever.

Speaking of the title, interesting bit in one of the IGN preview videos, Horizon: Forbidden West wasn't the original title, they changed it because the original sounded too much like the first game. Since the red plague kills all the grass in front of people's dwellings, it was going to be Horizon: Zero Lawn.

It was a middling game but it was a lot of fun too and set up a unique world I still recall bits/locations from. I felt has a lot of potential with the right backing.

One thing I'm not looking forward to is having to play on a pad. I've got an UH run going right now on the original game, and while I was a bit dubious at first I've come to the realisation that this was the way the game was meant to be played. It's forcing me to be careful while travelling, to dodge properly and whip the camera round in combat, and to take full advantage of the machines weak points. M&k control is probably the only thing making that possible for me and I want to play the sequel on the hardest difficulty but the pad is going to be a serious handicap for me there.

I would only accept changes to her grappling jump animation if she went further with it, like and extra flip.

I don't care that they reused her grappling animation, it looked cool then and still looks cool now. What's neat is they added the rope coming closer to the camera and now the grappling looks cooler.
