Maybe it’s a strong case of nostalgia but a first person Indiana Jones game doesn’t feel right. But on the flip side, if it was a true third person game, people would complain that it’s a clone of Uncharted and Tomb Raider despite Indy being the original.
I have mixed feelings which make me happy as I don’t have an Xbox. 😁
Exact same reaction. First person feels so inappropriate for this property that I immediately assumed comparisons to Uncharted and Tomb Raider must have been a, if not the, major contributing factor to going first person.
First person perspective blurs the line between player and character for a specific type of immersion (when done well). An Indiana Jones game should be all about playing as motherfucking Indiana Jones, no blurred lines necessary. His stature and costume is integral to the formula that makes him iconic, and without them, the gameplay segments of this trailer make it look like Far Cry: The 80s Adventure Serial.
The fact the Nazis are involved is obviously very cool considering it’s Indiana Jones but you can’t help (well me anyway) thinking that it is quite Wolfenstein-y.
@alyaza Interesting game, will definitely put it on my wishlist. Seems a bit similar to This War of Mine, where you play as a group of civilians which have to survive as much as possible stuck in a besieged city.
This War of Mine is a good game, but I found it too bleak to keep playing. I am sure that is part of the point, but I usually play games as a form of escapism.
You have to break into the apartment of an elderly couple very early into the game. I remember the man reacting to the break in, defending himself and his wife. His death made me feel so terrible (which is the intent of the game, of course) that I put the game down.
@DdCno1
I broke into their apartment without fighting them. Just hid from them and stole whatever I could. The next day, the news broke out that raids have started and basically nobody was safe anymore, and I kept losing things.
I died fighting someone with fists against a shotgun.
Hopefully we get a game crossover with TW:Troy like in the Warhammer series. It’s a pretty similar time period and uses all the same resources, so I could see Agamemnon doing battle with Ramses.
One plan that we’ve always had since the early stages of development on PHARAOH is to expand the size of our campaign map as a free update, and to introduce even more factions and cultures to the game.
and one has to assume that Greece would have to be one of the expanded parts... But that was the original intention before Pharaoh fell on its face so who knows if that's still on the table.
You can say that again, going faith allowed you to do so much anime shit... Blasting down from the sky with thunder, growing dragon heads with a million different powers, sacrificing your sanity to become Cyclops from X Men on steroids...
And meanwhile, INT is just "blue arrow", "blue arrow, but stronger", "blue sword", "blue sword, but stronger" and "OP Kamehameha that ruins the game", lol.
i wouldn’t say “ruins.” I’m doing another int/fth playthrough and forgot how fucking wicked the Sword of Night and Flame was. It’s way easier to get than Comet Azur
Eh, Comet Azur might have been nerfed but it’s still pretty OP with the infinite magic tear. The only difficulty is actually hitting the boss with it, but if you can, it’s usually a one continuous hit kill.
I’m kind of excited to go for a strength build again once the DLC releases. Greatswords and Ultragreatswords were kind of rough on release (they’ve been straight-up buffed like 4 times now, I think?) and I’m in the mood for some good ol’ fashioned bonking.
I tried going strength on my first run and ended up going with a katana dex build. Months later I picked up STR again and yeah, they’re a LOT better now. You’re in for a treat. I think they made ultra greatswords swing faster by like 30%+ since release.
That’s good to hear. I remember not really enjoying the end game much, because a lot of bosses were so fast that they kind of required you to trade hits because yours were so slow with Greatswords and Ultragreatswords. Malenia especially felt more annoying than challenging (especially coming off of DS3 where most of the fast-paced bosses could still be fought hitless with big weapons).
When you really want access to the DLC but Miyazaki hits you with
<span style="color:#323232;">you don't have the right, O you don't have the right
</span><span style="color:#323232;">therefore you don't have the right, O you don't have the right
