Why would he be a project manager? He's a stakeholder. If a PM is involved they work for Yuke's

obviously no idea how accurate whatever sourced gossip they got could be but this editorializing at the end

quote:

The one concern is who owns the engine of the game. If Yuke’s has any ownership of it at all, then AEW’s options of moving on are limited without spending even more money to gain the rights. If not, it’s a much easier discussion to have for America’s second-largest wrestling promotion.

is probably evidence that the writer doesnt know what theyre talking about

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Anonymous sources from WrestlingVideoGames.com confirm that Kenny Omega is a big goober and is actively hurting development on the game. He knows nothing about gaming and is a big piece of poo poo, unlike Bret Hart who helped code many of the 16-bit era games himself

The way the limbs somewhat awkwardly jerk into animations reminds me of the AKI animations, which is both good and kind of damning with praise, I guess.

It looks like I'd expect a modern AKI game to look. But it needs some work still...

I am surprised at how bad some of this stuff looks when you consider that they hand picked like 12 seconds of game play to showcase in each video. Statlander's trailer looked worse. Like those initial punches where Nyla isn't reacting to it. And Nyla's legs just moving into position for Big Bang Theory looks weird. The Nyla Rose trailer looked better FWIW.

For an AKI style game I do expect the animations to have a bit more spring to them though. The WWE games try to be very realistic in terms of movement, which they can never quite nail and makes it look bad when it doesn't look realistic. It really depends on how it plays I guess

It's almost as if they prefaced it by saying it wasn't final and had big text on the screen saying the same thing for a reason. Not sure why, though.

And I have no idea how Kenny could be seen as "inexperienced" in any way regarding wrestling or video games. That's his whole life
The games industry is notoriously toxic and cliquey, which has nothing to do with how much of a gamer you are or how much you're involved with a game's subject matter. Inner circles have inner circles and they treat people like poo poo if you're not part of the club, worse if you're in any kind of marginalized group, and they work people to death in 80-100 hour weeks during deadline crunches. Even if that particular article's not accurate, stories about major game devs exactly like this come out all the time.

I bought Wrestling Revolution 2D on Steam recently, after watching the nL guys' "nL Slip career" playlist, mainly because I think the 2D version has a certain charm the 3D versions lack.

One of my favorite moments happened yesterday: during a First Blood match, after getting the upper hand on my guy, the opponent just randomly decides to headbutt my character...and proceeds to bust himself open hardway, looking like he's gigged himself Eddie Guerrero-style, and instantly loses the match. :laugh:

For people who have 2k22, is it stable enough to be worth buying on sale now? Was looking for something to play around in when I've hit a wall in Elden Ring.

The last game I played was 2k19 and most of the time I'm playing around creating CAWS and doing exhibition matches. Don't care at all about gm mode.

On Xbox it still crashes when you've been using the creation suite for more than 30 minutes or so, and there's a hard cap on image downloads that includes all custom images associated with anything created, so at a certain point new downloaded stuff will show up stripped of all custom images.

it still randomly crashes and locks up for me on xbox series x. ever since i downloaded the umaga pack the game instantly crashes if a wrestler tries to pull a weapon out from under the ring so i just gave up on the game.

There is a place for modpacks for Journey of Wrestling, right? Or I might be confusing it with Pro Wrestling Simulator- a different booking sim.

Either way, wonder if they're a bit less harsh with the charts than TEW/EWR.

Well apparently you can't simply shorten the list of cities since they had to put in extra Orlandos so maybe you're somehow right.

WWE 2k22 is rather remarkable in the fact that every single idea you could possibly come up with just flat out doesnt function.

Wanna have a tournament with damage retention and no rope breaks? Well, all the options are right there available for you, but they JUST. DONT. WORK. EVER.

Want a normal tag team match that doesn't either end in a countout because the AI has no idea how to get back into the ring in less than 10 seconds OR goes on for 97 minutes because they instantly break up every single pinfall? No gonna happen!

Want to play Universe Mode with any custom content at all? Not gonna happen!
