I’m glad Kojima has his own company now. There aren’t many “auteurs” in the video game space, so I think we should be fostering the ones we have while they’re still around.
Also, he doesn’t look a day over 40. Dude is 62 years old.
I tried so hard to get into both DOS and DOS2, but just couldn’t. I hate the combat and found the story not worth pushing threw the utterly shit combat for.
It’s extra frustrating because both games should be right up my alley, but both were complete misses for me. Friends and family still recommend them for me, but I disliked those games so much I refuse to touch BG3. I don’t trust Larian or the reviews.
There’s an enormous jump in quality of story, presentation, and quest design between D:OS2 and BG3, and the RPG mechanics are very different. It’s worth a shot, seriously.
I absolutely loved BG3, and I I haven’t liked an RPG since Dragon’s Quest 2 back in 1988. I plan on picking up DOS2 in 2 weeks, so if you remind me I can let you know how the two games compare. BG3 was a revelation to me, opening my eyes to a completely new way of enjoying games. The writing was good, the game-play good, the graphics good. BUT!! If I play DOS2 and also like that, then I could give you that feedback.
As a huge zombies fan who has skipped every game since BO3; I kinda hope they never make a good game that I feel like I want to play ever again… Because it won’t run on Linux and I don’t want to dual boot or get a console 😅
Yah it’s nothing like CoD Zombies, but it IS a zombie game, and it’s made by just two people trying to make a quality survival game and it’s obviously a work of passion worth supporting.
I haven’t bought a big company release in years at this point. There are so, so many good indie games being made right now, this will be a nostalgia point for kids someday, back when there were was a flood of games and half were huge, bloated AAA wastes of money that nobody liked, and the other half were amazing, weird, experimental concept ideas produced in low fidelity and released for $5 - $20.
cough cough hunt showdown cough cough ultra kill cough cough in fact any fps published by devolver digital cough cough arma(any version of it including dayz) cough cough hell let loose cough cough borderlands cough cough intruder cough cough the metro series cough cough rising storm cough cough stalker cough cough
All of these fps, many of them with other tags as well but all of them are fps and almost all as solid and all of them more complete CoD(at least based on the notion that all there is to cod is shooting people and occasionally capturing an objective on the less popular game modes)
The new MW3 was literally just an expansion pack for the new MW2 sold for full price.
Same as BO6/7. People are only willing to be milked so much. It’s why when people say what their favorite CoD is, the oldest game mentioned is Black Ops 2
Depends what generation you ask, because a lot of the CoD audience now, never even played Black Ops 2. Which I agree, was the last good game, I'll give credit to BO3 for it's amazing zombies experience, with mod tools on PC, which was a surprise.
It was absolutely insane that they decided to do it this way in the first place. It wasn’t perfect before, but at least having multiple teams on rotation gave them some time to cook their own game.
But now Treyarch had to help with vanguard zombies (and also mw zombies I think?) while developing their own game, while also developing their own game for the next year
I’ve enjoyed playing cod since I was a kid but this shit has been a clown fest for years now
Problem is, Treyarch were the only competent studio after all of IW left. So they have been constantly called in to help to clean up the mess the other studios keep making.
Now development on the games is split across Activision studios all over the world, so the chance of there ever being a coherent self contained experience again is basically zero. Their scope got too big and they couldnt find the right people to take it on.
I saw it had robots and shit and noped out of even thinking about buying it.
I can’t keep up with what the current cod game is, they’re wannabee super hero babes games which bear zero resemblance to the original games. It’s a characature at this point.
I just think the game looks and plays bad. I’m clearly not the target demographic, but the older COD games I grew up with are a completely different tone/style/game to the modern arcade shooters.
I said I noped out of it, not that everyone should.
Here lies the problem: A lot of FPS players literally only want ONE fucking tone for EVERY FPS, which is like. Serious-looking milsim appearance that takes place in the present day. That’s it. They’ll literally attack any futuristic game as “it’s a mobile game” and “not realistic”, as if that should be the only thing that dictates if an FPS is good or not. I for one am tired of it, especially considering most of the people who are extremely anal about that are either chuds or fascists who want to roleplay as a super soldier fighting for the good ol’ US of A. So when people constantly talk about how “ah this thing has robots I don’t want to play it” it immediately triggers that suspicion in me.
Not to mention, this whole obsession with “realism” to me is absolutely stupid. I don’t need to see literally every pore on an old man’s face for my game to feel good. Hell, you have games like Hades II, Silksong, MOTHER 3, and a fuckton of other games that are just extremely good that none of those people try because they’re not realistic.
