In contrast, the mobile versions of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition, released in December last year, met with critical acclaim. Players praised the ports for fixing several issues found on the console and PC versions, including lighting, shadows, reflections, and draw distance. A Rockstar Games blog post published at the time mentioned that these ports include a new classic lighting mode “that restores the look and feel of the sky in the original games.”
Now, finally, this classic lighting option is in Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition on PC and console. Early reports indicate sweeping visual improvements across the board that are already going down well with fans.
In essence, yes. However the mobile port had features, specifically the lighting, that more resembled the original. Those lighting features were absent in the PC/Console versions until this update.
Indeed, I read the article. That's literally what I was moaning about!
I was expecting a bit more. Some before and after screenshots, for example, some specifics about what these "several issues" that were fixed were would be nice too.
I’m sorry, I don’t mean to say nobody would or should care I just mean my head has been so filled with anxious thoughts that hearing about a corporate video game not doing well profit-wise sounds like an onion article headline to me.
Again, I don’t mean to say it’s irrelevant it just sounds irrelevant
Well you are in a gaming community so expect more articles that have nothing to do with your personal life. You can block communities from not seeing them.
I feel like this game suffered from releasing in an unpolished state. Its competition is Smash bros, which is incredibly polished but has bad networking. Even with smash’s issues though, it felt way better to play than this did. They could have fixed all the issues, but the first taste I had of the game was negative, and I just don’t feel like it’s worth my time to go back.
With so many games coming out, I feel like the first impression is more important than ever, but more and more games are instead releasing in a poor state with the idea of fixing it later if it makes money.
Now that I think about it, this idea was probably a good one for standard release, not live service. People get enticed by IP rights even if they don’t necessarily devote hundreds of hours to a game like this.
It works for things like Injustice. They see a Batman/Superman fighting game even if they aren’t going to hit Gold rank in competitive. Even if they only hit 10 hours, they paid the entry price.
I don’t think this game is AAA or that they sunk much money into it. From what I can tell, they just fell $100M short of very optimistic revenue projections based on high initial player numbers.
The game was in a pretty rough state when they relaunched it, but they have been slowly improving it a bit at a time (it often feels like 2 steps forward, 1 step back). I feel like the game is in a pretty good spot though. I enjoy it and am looking forward to season 4.
I found the pacing of the first few chapters in the first Alan Wake sublime, in terms of storytelling. The gameplay frustrated me on the other hand, became quickly monotonous and tedious for me. So I only played like a third of the game, much as I liked the story and was curious to see where it went. Then Control I was left completely unmoved by. So I’ve been hesitating to take up the second Alan Wake, basically because I didn’t much like the first iteration, or Control, which I’ve heard is somehow connected. Maybe I’m missing out. Or maybe these games appeal only to a certain audience.
I thought the story of Control was just ok but the gameplay was awesome.
It didnt land on my Top 25 list BUT…that one level (people who played it know exactly which I mean) was easily one of the best sequences I’ve ever played. I have no idea how they made it feel like you were still in control (hehe) as everything around you went crazy.
Unfortunately that level is very late in the game otherwise I’d implore you to stick it out to see it. But since you quit so early because you weren’t having fun, you probably will continue to not have fun until that part.
