Last night reached the first battle against a Marauder in Doom Eternal, and yeah, I see why they became so infamous, a 1 on 1 fight was ok, but I just can't see that being fun while getting hit from a dozen other beasties.
Or when you fight like 3 of them at once in the DLC

The DLC was nuts with a lot of fights from what I saw

So the KOTOR remake is very much uncertain, because the studio it was given to presented some early game version to their bosses and were immediately removed from the project, and the game was given to another studio. There has been no update since but that was like last summer.

I thought that was mostly just Aloy specifically

I believe that the program created for breeding more humans succeeded, but then the actual learning program was sabotaged beforehand by everyone's favorite CEO shithead, so all of human knowledge prior to Zero Day was lost.

That's kind of what happened with Square selling off their more western-focused IPs (Tomb Raider and Deus Ex among them) for a pittance because they didn't care about those and just wanted to spend the cash on crypto bullshit

Apparently Alan Wake voice actor Matthew Porretta went on a podcast recently and said that Alan Wake 2 comes out in October??

So I have to assume that the fact that the MGS3 remake is being called Delta could indicate that this is a way for them to reboot the series without Kojima, and doing it from the beginning?

Isn’t it just the existing games plus some new stuff all remade in UE 5?

I don’t recall it being particularly fondly looked upon in the first place.
I was making a joke about it being memorable, mainly because of that stream clip of the streamer causing those dolls to just keep slamming their heads into a cabinet repeatedly

I thought this was a remake of the first game, which was Bloober Team's first game, but to be honest I haven't paid much attention to it

Shame that most of the announced games in the MS showcase are 2024, though. I'm imagining an alternate reality where most of those are 2023, and THAT I would call one of the craziest years in gaming for sure.

A lot of the other MS franchises were MIA at the event (STALKER 2, for obvious reasons, but also The Outer Worlds 2 and State of Decay 3).

Starfield kind of needs to work out for MS because their other big title for this year was Redfall, and we know how that turned out

ohhhh

noooooooooooooooooo
The other trailers for this were bad, but somehow this makes it look even worse?

I also guarantee that if this is like most other streaming shows, the first episode will have a ton of car combat and then the rest will be filmed on cheap sets before a finale where there is more car combat\

I also don't understand why you take a franchise that is generally about how Satan runs a car combat contest and then not use that concept at all

Daughter just finished TLOU2. Her words as she got up from the couch, “this game sucks! That was so sad! Why they have to do it like that!” She ultimately liked Abby much more than Ellie by the end and was experiencing some true internal dissonance at the player-controlled events at the end (avoiding spoilers). Then was just dead silent as the final cutscenes played out. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her so emotional about any form of media ever. No show, no movie, nothing has ever spoken to her so strongly.

She immediately wanted to play TLOU1.

If that Digital Foundry video is right, maybe Forespoken would be a good game for her eventually. She’s seen too much of Horizon ZD to be interested.
She's not wrong, Ellie is kind of a mess by the end of that game as a person

I finally finished the campaign for Jedi Survivor after getting sidetracked with Zelda. This game is way bigger and harder than I expected from a major Star Wars title, I had to drop it down to medium difficulty and even then it was tough defeating the final boss.

If not for the performance issues on performance mode I’d say this was a near perfect sequel that improved everything about the first game. At this point Disney should put all major Star Wars films on ice and focus on the games, cause between this and Squadrons last year they’re really knocking it out of the park.
I also enjoyed it but the performance issues are really unacceptable for a game where you have to have good timing on your controls.

Story wise, (Jedi Survivor spoilers) i think the first game’s story flowed better. I’m glad that they worked in some of the whole ‘the Jedi Order was not exactly the greatest’ parts with things like the Cal/Merrin romance and (I assume) the idea that Cal can use Dark Side powers at times. I wish we had gotten some explanation as to how Bode managed to hide his Force abilities from multiple Jedi including a Jedi Master. For me the story kind of peaks at the big twist reveal and then the last part where you go to Tanalorr kind of fell flat. That and the fact that Bode’s daughter really got over Cal killing her father real fast.
