Live action with the producer who make half of the worse superhero movies, the guy only produce movies from famous IP. A fucking money milking machine producing Zelda…

With a director who’s most known for doing some hunger games ripoff-ripoff YA garbage. It’s so amazingly beyond parody that if you told me Nintendo’s plan was to delegitimize film as an art form, I’d believe you.

ursakhiin,

Only thing that would have been better is if they brought in Uwe Boll somehow.

Live action is a mistake IMO 2D animation would be better

I reckon 3D animation, a movie animated in both the style and locations of BoTW would be pretty amazing.

Oh no

Bilbo, do games w Can Meta’s new VR headset stop me feeling sick?

Play different games. Walkabout golf is a fantastic multiplayer game. I consider it the killer app. My family plays it regularly.

I wish they’d focus more on releasing VR board games. My family and friends are scattered around the world and VR is fantastic for playing board games with them if only they’d release them.

If the only thing you like playing is FPS games then I guess VR isn’t for you though.

chipsydev,

This is the answer IMO. I suffer from terrible motion sickness from all of the normal stuff like riding in the back of a car and when I go out fishing on the ocean, like very quickly and very intense, but I have zero issues playing hours of VR elite dangerous…thank god

It makes me feel sick to be around anything Facebook. So for me, the answer is an easy NO

They didn't fix the VR induced nausea. They moved to a mixed reality headset. You still see the room you are in as well as the game.

The question I then have to ask is: Why strap this to your head?

I have no clue. VR has its uses, but it absolutely has no place in my daily life like the zuck wants to believe.

There would be more sympathy for Meta of they actually produced something innovative, but they aren’t. The screens and the lenses might be getting better and the device might be getting a few ounces lighter, but that is about it. Maybe augmented reality is getting a bit better? Whatever they are doing, it can’t justify the billions they have spent on it.

If anything could be said about that is that’s most probably an event that happened in time.

This was already a thing back in the ‘90s. Several games had actors in them, it was a sign of the times because it hadn’t been done before. After the exuberance wore off we got more professional voice actors to do parts. Guess it’s back in style again.

mudstickmcgee,

Tim curry did his best work in red-alert 2

I’d prefer them to converge from Baldur’s Gate 3 direction. Cast more or less established voice actors and give them the hype and marketing space usually found among movie/tv stars. “films and games converge” yea, when we treat a 200hour computer game the way we treat a long tv series and acknowledge the actors’ contribution on the same level.

CitizenKong,

I absolutely agree. Every single voice actor from the main party of BG3 was stellar (including the narrator), while J.K. Simmons seemed to be bored while recording his lines and Jason Isaacs was good but nothing extraordinary.

Surp, do games w Idris Elba: Actors in video games like Phantom Liberty is 'sign of the times'

Bruh this is nothing new. We had the legend Patrick Stewart and the captain of gondor in Oblivion.

aesopjah,

Yeah, but that was just the voice. This (and Keanu silverhand) are trying to be the actors straight up playing characters in the game.

TheBlue22, do games w Idris Elba: Actors in video games like Phantom Liberty is 'sign of the times'

As long as they are good voice actors too, sure. Otherwise, we have a Mortal Kombat situation on our hands.

Popular actors in cyberpunk 2077 are the worst part of it IMO, I’d much rather have those characters sport a face I haven’t seen a thousand times.

dangblingus, do games w Idris Elba: Actors in video games like Phantom Liberty is 'sign of the times'

Ehhh. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Case in point: everyone loves Patrick Stewart. He played a small yet memorable role in Oblivion. No issues. Everyone loves Keanu Reeves, but as soon as CDPR wheeled him out to hype up CP2077 in 2019, I rolled my eyes because it was an obvious attempt to capitalize on the meme-able goodwill that Keanu had from all of the posts about him riding the subway and his wife dying and how he’s a genuinely nice person.

Idris Elba on the other hand, he’s a great actor, but he has the marketability of a tuna sandwich.

Put famous actors in games when it makes sense to do so. Otherwise it comes off as hacky and you run the risk of severely dating your game in 10 years. Idris Elba is just in too many things these days to take him seriously.

It’s no different than putting famous people in movie voice acting roles. If they can voice act well it works (Eartha Kitt as Yzma) but often it’s just a sad attempt at generating hype (Chris Pratt as Mario).

Speaking of aging, does anyone remember Kevin Spacey in Call of Duty? That aged well right gang!
