    It's just an investment scam to trick investors. Disney does this, don't be fooled. They fooled me with halo infinite.

    • @thevoiceoftod
      @thevoiceoftod Місяць тому

      I don't see it that way honestly, but I understand why many do. Disney have purposely gone out of their way to destroy iconic franchises. 343i were just run by morons who had no real vision and no leadership qualities that lead to poor decisions. Those people are gone and this latest news is a statement of intent from the new leaders. I'll give them a chance to prove themselves.

    Prove it to us and stop doing stuff with infinite right now and take everyone off that time consuming old engine and get everybodyv100 percent all on the next game Bunnies team only paid attention to One game at a time and you guys need to do the same shut infinite down and get every single employee on the next game so we don’t have to wait 4 or 5 years It sounds like if they are going to go balls deep on infinite ANYTHING then they are going to shooz themselves in the foot already

    • @thevoiceoftod
      @thevoiceoftod Місяць тому

      They can't afford to stop infinite but they only have a skeleton staff working on it. It's going to be anything up to 5 years before we have a new game so they can't just cut all ties with their only income source. But time will tell. At least they have a clear path forward and they are actually telling us the plan.

    Honestly if they are a competent game studio than having an awesome easy to use engine is all they need. Now no more training the crap out of ppl before they even start on. The game bc if you need to teach how an engine works first then omg no wonder the halo game did so horribly Now with u real we should get better halo games and they should be released way more often

  • @sofajockeyUK

    Origins had heroic finishers. They are back. The 'sheen' is a Frostbite thing. Frostbite also suffers from uncanny valley, so there's a touch of stylisation to steer it away from that and I think that's worked out fine. Mass Effect has moved to Unreal. There will be unhappy people, but they'll be unhappy that the game is not something else rather than what BioWare has done is bad. I don't subscribe to such entitled logic. I'm happy to enjoy what they've done and it looks like a solid 4th instalment.

      I'm really looking forward to seeing what they do with this. It's had a lot of time and the trailers keep getting better. I think they have settled on the tone with this trailer and the combat is looking really good. But I'm always wary with Bioware now.

    I am also ok with the direction Xbox and Play Station are going. PS has great exclusives, generally better (performance, feature or value, one or two of those) hardware, and lately those have been coming to PC even if later. Xbox has game pass which is the best value in gaming, and all games are on PC too. If we get handhelds from PS and Xbox it will be even better, to compete with the amazing steam deck oled which currently has no competition at the moment.

    I personally won't be spending any money on Cyberpunk until: - It stops getting updates, thus the game will finally be out of early access - Only if it no longer has bugs, which as far as I have heard, new ones get introduced with every update while old ones are fixed. - Even AMD and Intel cards can play the game with full graphical features. I don't want to support single vendor technical demos, it reminds me of old tesselation days or whatever technology was used with Crysis games. I know all cards will be able to play this in one or max 2 generations from now, so will play it then unless they keep introducing new features that halve the framerate lol I have already watched Jingles play this game so not that interested in the story sadly, it didn't seem that good of a story compared to Horizon Zero Dawn for example, but then again I don't enjoy these GTA-like stories full of crime and shooting (or FPS games, for that matter), even if I do enjoy sci-fi and dystopian stories a lot

    3:50 when they mean feature parity, I think it means only features as in co-op, and similar. Basically anything that is gameplay. Graphical fidelity is not part of it, that will of course be different. I kinda agree with that, it would feel bad to everyone who bought the cheaper one if they couldn't play the same. Also, FPS cap is also ot a feature. I doubt they enforce the same FPS for both consoles because that is a graphical/performance aspect too, not a feature. But who knows what is happening behind closed doors. Xbox often makes bizarre decisions such as having their own proprietary storage when nvme exists and has been a big win for the PS5.

      I genuinely don't know what Xbox are doing this gen. Everything seems a little bizarre. Hopefully Baldur's Gate 3 is a turning point in stupid choices moving forward.

    The chain is a show of a penance trek/mission. I think since the last game he's been with the Inquisition as a 'mea culpa' or something (from what I've read thus far).

      @@thevoiceoftod The chapter that took him away with the inquisitor in the last game are the Black Templars(Look them up, thank me later), they ritually bind their weapons to their armor with the chains. more devotion to fighting to the last than penitence.

    Okay start of the vid. Those aint captives. Those aint cultists. That's a commissar, so it sure aint any of those. Nah bro, that's a firing line on guardsmen. Most likely retreated without an order or something like that, commissar found out, and did the average funny commissar thing to do: execute the lads for treason.

      I always forget about those pesky Commissars. Little surprised they'd be rounded up before getting a bolt round but whatever makes life easy I guess

    This game is indeed a pure nostalgia of my childhood. But also, I played all of them every year for at least 10 years in a row. That music is everything

      The music was a stand out, even then. Are the sequels worth taking a look at?

      @thevoiceoftod of course. BS 1 and BS2 a classic. BS3 has the most twisting story, though you have to get used to 3D and totally different control. I love BS3 the most, despite it not being a point and click. BS4 is still 3D but much more point and clicky in nature. BS5 I didn't like that much, because I thought the story was half baked and game was too short, it ended where it should have only began for real imo. But I am going to replay it next year and see again. I love all of them (except 5, but that's an unpopular opinion)

    Since Annapurna Interactive is the big showcase I am expecting every year (together with Tribeca), long comment incoming! 3:40 that's what being an indie studio is all about :P 4:02 looks very cool (Observation and Control vibes), never heard of it, wishlisted 6:12 Already had that one wishlisted. Sadly not the 'upgrade' from Inside I was expecting, but I am sure it will be good too. I do hope the original Inside studio is working on an even more awesome game. 7:20 this game looks like a very brave and risky project. But then, turns out it's a 'Simulator' so I guess it will have some audience. It might be the only/first simulator I try, I will wait for reviews 9:00 looks cool, sadly the only game Marumittu Studio has done is an idle clicker, so we have no clue what this will be 11:55 already on my wishlist, and honestly I have no clue why. Is the T pose a joke/satire about game development? 13:50 I already had this wishlisted, but if it's only co-op, then I worry it won't be for me either (since I never liked pokemon games or creature collection anyways). It's incredibly pretty though 17:00 Never heard of this. While I am always critical of sports games, cycling is one of the few sports I used to watch on TV... and the aesthetics and the mentions of afterlife made me wishlist this, let's see if it will be as interesting as this trailer made it seem 18:20 we know too little about this, if the story is good, it could be interesting 21:20 mundaun is a very cool game, have it wishlisted since before release 22:25 when postapocalyptic isn't enough. Definitely not for me, I remember this from last year's Annapurna showcase 24:45 damn, no Game Pass? :( wishlisted for years but too expensive for me 26:25 this game looks absolutely crazy, seen it in so many showcases and I have it wishlisted from the beginning. The focus on psychology is what I am hyped on 28:15 already had it wishlisted, but doesn't look that interesting compared to others. 30:00 this is incredibly exciting, they publish so many amazing games! WOW, first game and it is a BLADE RUNNER GAME?! Annapurna is getting better every year, incredible. Broke that wishlisted button from how hard I smashed it. Only 2 games ended up not on my wishlist, pretty good!

      Wasteland 3 is very Fallout in tone. It's a little goofy and very dark
