yeah it sounds like they made all the mistakes of the first one oddly enough. kinda vague and forgettable story, check. shit combat, check. and then they go and do the boring, empty open world thing? whhhyyyy

C.Mongler

i mean those are two completely different games, but yeah me too

both are set in corporate totalitarian dystopian regimes so this is not a shitpost
jet set radio made it work and third person view is my preference

squirrelfriend

jet set radio is true anime and mirror's edge is like pseudo anime a la avatar: the last airbender

C.Mongler

in that case, i'd rather have half life 3 yes;

squirrelfriend

since transhumanism is now literally tumblr how would valve tackle this

nowhere in my post did i imply that no one should buy it just because i'm unimpressed befuddlement

just don't buy it then dipshit jesus this isnt that hard of a concept lol if no one wants it for 60 its price will drop like a rock in a matter of weeks. christ lol


thanks for the economics lesson
i'm banking on either a price drop or low sales being the case if what we've seen really is all they have to offer, and in fact that would confirm that i was perfectly justified in finding the initial launch price of $60 to be ridiculous

yes, i very much look forward to being vindicated

i could not possibly have dreamed of a more spectacular disaster

not only did every single fear about the depth/shallowness of this game materialize tenfold, not only did promises from the grandiose to the most minute go shamelessly unfulfilled, but the icing on the procedurally generated cake is that the pc release is utterly broken, which even i couldn't have anticipated lol

i mean it's arkham knight-level unplayable giggle;

hopefully this serves as a lesson to self-important indies everywhere who might also have had the audacity to charge $60 for their own generic, broken early access game

it's just a shame that hello games has already made its millions thanks to sony's marketing prowess, an insane days-post-launch review embargo, and astronomical levels of overhype/overpromising that anyone could have seen through (but i think """gamers""" must deliberately go out of their way to prove that they're gullible morons)

well, now i can look forward to smugly ignoring this when it's being offered for $3.25 on next month's """humble """indie"""""" bundle rofl
