Looks beautiful, but also very boring. Too bad.

OnlyThoseOnTheFence1936d ago

Does it really look "boring" or are you just hating because of the letters "E" and "A"?

PapaBop1936d ago

The combat looks like it has a lot of potential but I've yet to see footage which has showcased the combat being used creatively in fun and engaging ways. It's all been, go to point A, kill a bunch of generic cannon fodder mobs which barely put up a fight, then go to point B rinse and repeat. So yeah, it sort of does look a bit boring so far.

I honestly hope I'm wrong, the setting looks interesting and the game has a lot of potential plus it's Bioware's main development team behind it but whether it'll be a great game remains to be seen. The fact it's EA behind it doesn't automatically make it a bad game but does make it all that more easier to pass up on.

Its basically diablo (loot style) meets warframe with the original writer for dragon age and kotor penning the story. Hopefully the story is good, as they've focused more on the gameplay and loot so far for what they've shown.

Dreamcatcher451936d ago

If they have good content on release and If they support this game post launch and keep grinding at a minimum, it could become a good game. But knowing this is EA i won't have my hopes up.

DrumBeat1936d ago

Nice little show there, but the game just looks so whatever-ish. I'd play it for maybe two days and I'd get sick of it. I can already tell. If you ever felt burned by Destiny, you're probably going to avoid this.

LordoftheCritics1936d ago

DLSS won't fix the no campaign problem of this game.

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE128d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine128d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies128d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--128d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob128d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven471d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad471d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt472d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil470d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx471d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades471d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602471d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

Aloymetal996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb996d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff2183996d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal996d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds995d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon996d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley996d ago (Edited 996d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat2020996d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot41996d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai996d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX995d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley994d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot41996d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast996d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu996d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing996d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast995d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing995d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC996d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
