Isn't it pretty easy to do an open world game, though? And with zombies to boot? Even UbiSoft can do this.
Next up on the low score track is gonna be Ghost of Tsushima. I like Infamous, but they’re an 8/10 studio and a parry/counter/stealth samurai game is fucked after Sekiro. Gonna be non-stop comparisons and it’s really unlikely it will hold up.
Ehh... can't really say. Remember how everyone was saying FROM fucked up because Nioh was first Samurai Souls? Yet they delivered an extraordinary and different title. Same might happen to Ghost: it will not be "another Sekiro" but something different.
I will probably buy it on PS5, tho.

TLOU2 save us :rejoice
Yeah, about expected. Never looked particularly interesting and the developer doesn’t have a great track record. They tend to be about a 7/10 studio.

Holy shit, they made Bubsy 3D? :lol
But then they made all the Syphon Filter games, Resistance Retribution, and Uncharted Golden Compass- I thought people generally liked all those titles?
Eh, coming from 2018 with Astrobot, Spider-Man and God of War winning most of the awards I don't think Sony's having much of a first party problem. There's always gonna be some duds between the good stuff. I mean MS just had the whole Crackdown 3 fiasco.I'd probably enjoy this more than God Of War.

wait this is another bum ass open world game? jesus how boringImplying it would've been less boring if it was another linear movie game like The Order, Dad of War, UYncharted, Last of Us, Hellblade, etc. :doge
it would be, actually. all those games were fun to play since they're more digestable. open world games are just busyworkSony's open worlds have been pretty bland, but i'd rather dick around in an open world than sit through another "walk and talk" sequence.
Will never understand people hating on God of War or TLOU.
Yes, they are "walk and talk" but best in their walky-talky genre.

But what we’ve seen of Tsushima the combat and stealth are both very similar to Sekiro so it’s totally gonna get compared and imo there’s no way Sucker Punch beats From on those two aspects of it.Pretty sure Ghost of Tsushima is batman combat aka it's going to be lame and boring.
I think I see him defending that on Re?

He basically claims their demo was really fun, and that there's no way in a preview to tell how rewarding a game's systems are going to be, how it will be paced, it's length, etc.
Basically spoon fed the best parts of the game; but then again.. maybe they should talk about that more in previews, how you really can't tell from a short demo if a game is going to be great.
Sekiro combat (like all FROM games) is terrible at handling crowds, or anything that isn't a 1 on 1 human sized(ish) opponent.But what we’ve seen of Tsushima the combat and stealth are both very similar to Sekiro so it’s totally gonna get compared and imo there’s no way Sucker Punch beats From on those two aspects of it.Pretty sure Ghost of Tsushima is batman combat aka it's going to be lame and boring.
I'd kill for open world game with the budget and graphics of Tsushima with Sekiro combat. Maybe someday. :'(
Read a couple bad and a couple good reviews.I thought the selling point was supposed to be the massive crowds of zombies.
The "bad score" reviews jump right into a multi-page paragraph shpeel about the story I wasn't remotely concerned with and the "good score" reviews jump into intently describing the gameplay I do care about.
The bad score reviews tend to not like the gameplay either but they often brush over it in a way that makes me think they just didn't care that much about playing in the "sandbox." Where-as the good score reviews focus on the variety of ways to dispense enemies and the other sandbox-y elements.
Definitely at least a "wait for a couple of patches" game and grab in the bargain bin I think.

Oh, he's an idiot.
It's not like he would lose any credibility. He doesnt have any!Excuse me, you're talking about 2015's The Game Award for Trending Gamer winner. Show some God damned respect.

Most inexplicably praised game i've ever seen.
From the studio who brought you Bubsy 3D.

Imagine thinking anyone who worked on Bubsy 3D is still at that studio. That game came out 23 years ago, most people don't last 5 years at the same studio, let alone 23.
Should've went for a Syphon Filter reboot instead.From the studio who brought you Bubsy 3D.

Probably the case since like eight people worked on Bubsy. But John Garvin, who has been there since Syphon Filter 1, is listed as the director/writer for Days Gone.
:idont
Can't wait for Kojima's mess to come out to see all of the meltdown threads.It'll get 9s and 10s across the board.

MGSV was great, just unfinished. The gameplay is total sex. There's like no story though, so :|Gameplay is fantastic, but most of that was already nailed in Ground Zeroes.
Only Kojima game I thought was legit not good is MGS4 because it focused on story above everything else like enjoyable replayable gameplay. Every other MGS even with their flaws is a good game worth playing. DS will probably be fun.
Lager are you ok?

Well shit.
If you don't like HZD's open world and the feeling that something around every corner can and probably will kill you, then you probably won't like this game very much.
Sony’s PS4 exclusive title “Days Gone” debuts at the top of the All Formats Chart this week with the biggest launch of the year so far.
“Mortal Kombat 11” has to settle for a new entry at No2, while last week’s No1 “World War Z” drops to No10.
Is this a joke or...?

Horizon's open world was pretty awful, and the game had decent combat, but was tedious as fuck, with all the resource gathering.
Well I liked HZD’s world because it didn’t feel too big and most of the missions kept you in specific areas before you progressed to the next area. It was my favorite part of the game. Is Days Gone like that?
And what about the mission structure? Old GTA3 mission based or grindy unlock the mission crap like modern day games?
Is this a joke or...?
yeah, i was tired. watching the game just reminded me of all that popular bland nu-country (though parking lot party is hilarious).
i love a bit of corny culture, would love to see something hilarious set in modern 'muricana with characters like Raylan Givens. cut rate sons of anarchy try hards packaged in a populist zombie game turd just all equates to a product i can't help but want to deride.
:lol Got it. I like the first track (fix a drink) :yeshrug It could be very well placed in some lighter scene in a zombie/ biker game but then it is DARK AND MACHOORE SONY GAME.
