The '95 Sega Genesis X-Men 2: Clone Wars is still my favorite Wolverine in gaming. Just felt like a chunky tank that destroyed everything and the gameplay was fun (and Psylocke, of course).
Yeah, I’m gonna guess some kind of dismember system that fills up a meter and let’s you perform takedowns, which, in theory, wouldn’t be so bad—Ninja Gaiden had it, minus the meter.
Question is: are we going to get a proper combo system around it with proper risk/reward and freedom of expression, or are they gonna baby proof it? Combat looks grounded, so I’m guessing the latter.
I don’t see Wolverine launching enemies in the air and doing air juggles in a cowboy hat and jeans 😅
Maybe I am just noticing it more these days (see: Wuchang) but holy crap are the community manager originated “talking points” so ridiculously transparent while also being disturbingly effective.
Ain’t NOBODY ever gave a shit about Kyle Crane. That is right up there with “The Iconic Hayden Pierce’s Hat” in the ubi-verse.
That said: I would like it to be good but I still think 2’s biggest mistake (aside from the hilariously bad story which… 1 wasn’t much better) was that there just isn’t that much water in the “parkour around zombie city” genre and all that wingsuits added was another case of being frustrated when we couldn’t do something we should be able to do (the grappling hook in 1 had similar problems). And apparently they are going for 18 hours of story in Beast? That… is a bold move.
Yeah, wingsuit ruined the second for me. You can literally fly across the map with having to parkour. I liked some of the parkour changes, but they alsmost don’t want you to have to actually parkour in that game.
The writer for dying light was let go for good reason and he was the main talent. This is why dying light two was so plain story wise because the replacement writer wasn’t up to the task.
No reason to hype that the beast writer is up to the task also. Only time will tell.
This libel suit was settled in March 2023, with a settlement that "provides for a seven-figure payment" from the accusers to Avellone. Concurrently the two accusers retracted their original accusations, stating that "Mr. Avellone never sexually abused either of us," and that "We have no knowledge that he has ever sexually abused any women." They also claimed in the same statement that their previous public statements with regards to Avellone had been "misinterpreted".
Shit like this is why people need to knock it off with the “iT’s A sCaM” bullshit and embrace crypto. This is the exact kind of issue that using cryptocurrency prevents.
We need to federate money and put it back in the hands of the people. You would think that Lemmy would be into that idea, but instead y’all act like crypto killed your dog and fucked your wife. I don’t get it.
(And before you use the waste of electricity argument, remember that proof of stake is a thing.)
Edit: Well this went exactly how I expected. Just nothing but ignorant downvotes. Not even a single attempt at a decent counter-argument. You people and your hive mentality suck.
My takeaway is that if I don’t go broke on groceries this year I sure as hell will go broke buying some phenomenally promising games (or at least supporting the devs anyway).
hell yeah the rumors is true. Well it LOOKS solid, but i don’t know how much actual info there was to glean out of that video. This is coming from a different studio than the people that brought you THPS 1+2, so it remains to be seen if Iron Galaxy can pull off the same kind of loving remake that Vicarious Visions gave us in 1+2. I think Iron Galaxy was responsible for the Killer Instinct reboot, so we know they have some cred on bringing old games back to life.
Iron Galaxy had some misses in the past, most notably probably the PC port for Arkham Knight. More recently, Last Of Us Part 1 on PC, which had some bad performance at launch, I think. They did the PC port for THPS1+2 though, and I don’t remember hearing some big complaints, but I also haven’t paid too much attention.
When I was like 9 or 10 I thought our neighbor was at the door so I jumped out in my home made samurai pizza cats outfit, yelling "samurai pizza cats, they're so bad!", presuming that he was there to play samurai pizza cats.
Turned out to be a boy from my class at school collecting money for something. He proceeded to blackmail me, getting my lunch in exchange for keeping my dorkiness hush-hush.
And what are we supposed to do with our Switch now? I know it’s been out for a while, but my growing resentment for the linear economy is giving me huge console generation cycle fatigue.
Keep using it. You don’t need the 2 unless you have a desperate need for a Switch 2 exclusive (or maybe want to run some of the games that the OG Switch couldn’t really handle so great).
With my PC-based gaming offerings, I probably won’t even be tempted until they announce a Switch 2 OLED or whatever.
Usually, when it comes to these kinds of upgrades, I either do one of two things. If the two consoles can play together, I usually will keep the second. With Nintendo consoles, I will keep one and sit on it (usually until the next generation) and then mod it.
Or alternatively I’ll once in a blue moon, sell it to someone else for a fair price. It can help offset the cost of the new thing, and you know that your old device is still going to get used by someone else who can appreciate it.
Linear economy is a system in which people buy a product, use it, and then throw it away. The term linear refers to the straight progression that a product can follow, with a beginning, a middle and an end. There is no thought along the line regarding recycling or reuse. (per www.eib.org/en/stories/linear-economy-recycling#%….)
