Shadow of the Colossus is the March PS+ game hmm

by Firenze Wed Feb 26, 2020 7:29 pm

Nioh 2 almost here. Looks hype, been following the recent Japanese streams showing it off. Day 1 with the scythe. Last chance beta is Friday and lasts a few days.

by RealGunner Wed Feb 26, 2020 7:56 pm

Definite day 1?

by Firenze Wed Feb 26, 2020 8:11 pm

yeah

think I'm more hyped for this than anything releasing this year

Will get the eventual complete edition packed with the DLC. Might pick up the Nioh 1 DLC too if they are put up on sale.

by Firenze Wed Feb 26, 2020 8:23 pm

that's the downside of day 1, they've announced 3 DLC's, by the time they release I'll have been long done with the game

When PS5 will come out ? And the xbox equivalent ?

Increasingly tempted to buy a PS4 but what would be the point if in less than one year it's dead online because most people leave for the newest console

We don't have dates yet but any time between September-November is likely.

by Firenze Thu Feb 27, 2020 1:59 am

any chance coronavirus impacts production? IIRC Nintendo mentioned that it'd impact shipments of the Switch for the EU, but IDK how much of production Sony do in China

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Feb 27, 2020 2:20 am

China is dominant in the entire industry, their responsible for a lot of things that people don't talk about.

It will slow down a lot of things, but we're still waya off from being concerned about Consoles being effected.

Another one bites the dust. BG3 confirmed to be turn based. rofl

Not only that, but it's 5e, different setting, characters and story, set in 100 years of future. I've over 2000h of Baldur's Gate on my back and this for me is as offensive as it gets. There's nothing BG in it other than the name. Probably first time I feel real anger against WotC. Goes without saying, they're not going to get one cent for this money grabber from me.

by RealGunner Fri Feb 28, 2020 5:42 pm

Turn based? like FF mechanics or Xcom?

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Fri Feb 28, 2020 5:45 pm

Like Divinity aka one of the best RPGs of the last decade but people are complaining because it's not an exact clone of something from 20+ years ago. Laughing

Devs can't win, either they make something new and get lambasted for not being exactly what's already been before or they make an out of date clone and people complain anyway.

Gamers just like to bitch.

by Harmonica Fri Feb 28, 2020 5:55 pm

Devs have nothing to do it, it was WotC that decided the game as they hold the IP. Clone of something? Laughing

How about not chancing the freaking core mechanic in addition of everything else, that made the original master piece. Like you said, BG3 is a game for Divinity players, not for Baldur's Gate players.

They're the Divinity developer and said they're using their turn based combat, because "we're familiar with it". Which is utterly ridiculous statement, and offensive as hell for Baldur's Gate veterans.

I mean they doubt they're forcing them to do something they don't want to aiming a shotgun at their neck lol.

Yes a clone, you and many others basically want the same game you played 20 years ago with updated tech.

If they don't deliver that then they're bad lol.

Beamdog wanted to do BG3, but WotC gave it to Larian because of potential money from Divinity casuels.

How's a continuing story with RtwP and modern graphics a clone? That's what we wanted, not a freaking BG skinned Divinity. Actually I would've happily taken continuing story with the original engine, before this.

by Kaladin Fri Feb 28, 2020 6:39 pm

BG3 will be great, nevermind what Harmonica thinks, Lariat knows how to make CRPGs and dare i say Divinity trumps any CRPG ever created.

It might be a great game, but it will not be Baldur's Gate 3. Yes, lets not care what Baldur's Gate fans think, because it's made for Divinity players. Here're my credentials, now let me see yours?

been hearing that nemesis on resi 3 remake is spoiling the game a bit. im not a fan of an enemy thats you cant kill and is just relentless throughout the game. i got a little frustrated with the big dude in resi 2 remake but they are saying this guy is worst. Evil or Very Mad

by rincon Fri Feb 28, 2020 8:21 pm

BG3 looks great, checked out a preview after Harmonica's post and it looks excellent.

by RealGunner Sat Feb 29, 2020 10:02 am

Kojima is teasing a horror game. Not silent hill though.

by Firenze Sun Mar 01, 2020 2:56 pm

forgot how much more complex Nioh's combat is compared to Souls ffs

boss of the trial is absurd

by RealGunner Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:34 pm

Think i rage quit somewhere halfway through and never got back into it again

by Firenze Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:56 pm

I like how within 30 mins though my character looks cooler than he ever did in Sekiro/BB

missed this kinda customisation

but yeah, i can see this game breaking me on full release lol, cant cheese it like i did last time

by RealGunner Sun Mar 01, 2020 3:59 pm
