    Akira Project (live action trailer)

    Otomo is supposedly tackling a series with Sunrise Studio(Gundam) that was vaguely described but should be tackling the entirity of the manga rather than a slice that is the movie.. which I think is a better route for the legacy of Akira, and thank fuck the western live action sank. It's such a...

    Arc Raiders

    I would imagine once nextfest hit's(Monday), we will get a playtest.. which I think would smart to keep the hype going.. but that is half built on hope. I just want to see what the "12" maps looks like, even if its 6; it'll be crazy. If all the development stories are to be believed, embark...

    Alien: Earth

    It's been a while since I actually sat down with Prometheus, but my immediate thought is that the idea of zoomer is there is no real atmospheric buildup and almost every plot point is fodder to the next point.. it feels like it just goes scene to scene and is crammed.. which prompts wasted...

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    Yeah, i'm retarded. I thought it was another mod via BF2. A friend of mine told me about the insurgency saga mod a couple months back but we went to play the one for Squad instead which was pretty cool at the time.. but it was more for the vehicle threat, and running duo sapping basically.

    Alien: Earth

    I've given up hoping for good continuity and aimed for cool visuals.. and whether not this gets any sort of continuity right; idk.. but seeing the m4 pulse rifle and m56 smart gun; makes me incredibly happy. Even what looks like a vector / pulse smg.

    Yeah, the whole Kyber thing is fucking cool. It's basically old school server browser where you can add mods, set/browse rules, and host server old-school style, ontop of from what I understand.. Kyber makes the whole downloading mod process a lot easier.. and I think you can technically...

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    I'm happy that they won't, and/or pray that they won't touch it. If Jackfrags is anything to believe, the way Star Wars ip is handled now is open-ended and the battlefront rights was technically owned by LucasArts and not EA/Dice.. or something like that.. so it's possible Battlefront 3 doesn't...

    Maybe I don't really understand lawsuits to a billion dollar company's perspective, but wouldn't they ultimately just remove the assets in the lawsuit and ride on the claims of basically alpha status since the proof is only really so deep. I'm not a lawman but I feel like there wouldn't be much...

    It's all rooted from the same ideas which yeah basically wipeout.. but the specific part that is damning is that it just straight up ctrl+c ctrl+p assests from her art posted in 2017 into the game which started "development" in supposedly 2018. It really has nothing to do with the actual art...

    Arc Raiders

    Personally, I think it has a lot to do with that PvP is second to PvE.. there is so much emphasis on a largescale/detailed map, with decent loot sprinkled throughout and engaging PvE encounters that don't feel bullet sponge-y(cough marathon cough) but also monster hunter/souls-likeish(weak...

    Isn't Jones still at Bungie? I thought it was only Seropain and Kirkpatrick that were long gone before sony acq.. but I guess they're not specifically the writers, or the people under.. It seems most head positions are helmed by people who've been around since halo and some destiny 1/2, then...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    Agreed. I have heard positives with the actual gun game, the fights being fun/intense, and ai being relatively interesting with flanking and trying to do things within the combat rather than just mindlessly walking at you or auto-aim you into oblivion.. Which I assume might come from Destiny...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    Is it 10 years too late? Tarkov didn't really start exploding til about 2019/18ish, which would line up to when most of the extraction shooters started coming out that follow the formula(23,24,25). Hunt came out around 2018, but it's fundamentally a different game that is more about a character...

    I mean Mielgo is rather profilic and influential over the last few years in the art space.. he also did the test screenings for into the spiderverse which essentially set the tone for how the movies would be, but I think was cut from the project due to wanting to be closer to realism(which most...

    Yeah, I think a lot of the tarkov streamers have had pretty fair reception, and are critical on all the right parts. Right now, the game-play is okay to good but not impressive or outstanding.. but it's a bit shallow on the reason you're going in and actually doing stuff.. Landmark was just...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I mean, it technically is doing something different than it's Tarkov counter-part.. it's closer to the competitors like Delta Force, Arena Breakout, and The Cycle; but actually far closer to CoD DMZ.. the easiest answer is casualizing/simplifying it.. Tarkov has an essential population bleed...

    Personally, I feel it has a lot to do with the greybox visual of the game; it wasn't this critical til gameplay.. It' leans into a bit of 'unrefined' territory with thing's that is so starkly familiar.. some of the models are oddly jointed, and everything is surreal flat. Even in some...

    I can concede to majority of the points, and fully accept that this could very well be that this is slop to be consumed; esp the track record of bungie setting norms to mtx's and live service gaming that has been relatively toxic for consumers over the last 10 years. Even seeing that while DEI...

    DrLupo has some solid critisms on some of the missing factors in Marathon that keeps Tarkov continuously engaging, like the level of depth per map and insane verticalities which seems to be missing.. but while it's kinda eyeroll-y at this point; he was mentioning that it seems like the devs are...

    rofl I feel in such a minority here.. I never like halo, I don't like destiny.. but I am way over-hyped for this game.

    Counter-Strike 2

    I've always found the spray pattern from 1.5/1.6 to be far easier than CSGO/CS2, but as kinda said earlier the control on the first 6-8 rounds is more consistent in CSGO/CS2 compared to 1.6, while 1.6 has a more consistent first shot accuracy and/or tap firing; but the overall shooting style has...

    And you're going to kill someone with a 250$ version of the game, and scoff at the fact they've spent that much. It's not like some sword of a thousand truths. The monetary value gained from base game to eod; is absolutely massive.. take it from someone who has played on the base game for a...

    As long as we can agree EoD was also pay2win. With the new recoil system, and how pen works now(flat values); its free shit to rob, that gear ain't the gear of old. I've had a couple of theories we've been throwing around.. ultimately tarkov will be fine, but the easiest one is Arena was a...

    If there was any ounce of hope for the battleroyale, and just battlefield to be good again, Zampella(cod, titanfall, apex) was handed the reigns during active development for 2042 after its horrendous launch. Could absolutely still be dog shit.
