It's all about Metro for me this month

nucky642290d ago

me too! just 11 LONG days!
hey, we've had RE2 and are getting metro soon; after that, sekiro in march and days gone in april - pretty good start to the year.

monkey6022290d ago

I'm still playing Resi 2 anyway so the wait isn't killing me right now, I'm also looking forward to DMC5 and Sekiro a lot.

I was looking forward to Days Gone but the latest gameplay demos have really put me off it altogether.

The start of the year is definitely a big one though

nucky642290d ago

i finished 4 playthroughs of RE2 and sold it to a friend. "world of tanks" will keep me plenty busy till metro. i'm really liking what i've seen from days gone but it all comes down to preference. i won't be getting DMC5 new (never was a fan of it) but i might pick it up on the cheap if i hear good things about it.

starchild2290d ago

Yeah, Metro Exodus in February and Sekiro in March. I can't wait.

Kinda reminds me of miasmata also with how the navigation works. Not to miasmata's extent but definitely in the same vein

Mark Darrah: stop harassing devs because you don't know what caused "the thing that you're mad at"

Former BioWare executive Mark Darrah says "be a human being, have some empathy."
Fans don't know who is actually to blame.
Darrah throws up a hypothetical that someone might not like how an actor delivered a line. Sure, it could well be down to the actor, but it also might be down to who was directing them, how the writer asked their work to be delivered, or maybe that was the only take they got.

This line from the video though

"Maybe the CEO of the entire company really wanted his nephew to be hired as a script consultant and this guy with literally zero experience was coming in and pushing for mandatory changes"

Like others have said that seems far too specific to just be an example...

Eonjay81d ago

Exactly. And the crazy part about this is that the people there just doing their job and trying to make a living are the one's getting hurt and losing their jobs. I am also not a fan of targeting specific individuals. Its poor form. These are video games.

RiseNShine81d ago

If only there was a single problem with this game, it was a train wreck waiting to crash and burn.

thorstein81d ago (Edited 81d ago )

As usual, common sense falls on deaf ears. I mean, he thinks this article is about Dragon Age Veilguard. He rejects logic and evidence.

What possible logic or evidence can you provide to convince him otherwise.

Notellin80d ago

The community has spoken and would like for you to stop instead.

Armaggedon80d ago (Edited 80d ago )

@Thorstein

Cant expect people to see reason now a days.

@Notellin
Sure. Go ahead and bury yourselves beneath your own ignorance.

This article isn't about that game.

Gamingsince198180d ago

Veilguard was complete trash though anyway.

Notellin80d ago

Then don't use it for the thumbnail. It's misleading on purpose to draw this reaction.

thorstein80d ago

Or...I don't know... read the article.

staticall81d ago

Personally, i think we should always blame and criticize the management (especially top management; like with EA - every screw up should be blamed on Andrew Wilson and his goons). They're the ones with the power, the ones who have the last say in the matter - whatever is the plot details, gameplay, microtransactions, budget and «It's ok that it's buggy and crashes constantly, release the game ASAP, we'll fix it later».

Harrasement is not ok in my book, although, nowadays, many people paint every type of criticism (whatever warranted or not) as harrasement. Which is a very narrowminded and waters down actual harrasement problems. But, i guess, it makes it easier to ignore everything bad you see aimed towards yourself.

I would also like to add, that this topic is a double-edged sword, some developers are being mean to their customers, calling them names or any sort of -isms, that happens. In that case, don't be surprised, that, when you're «firing shots», customers are «shooting back» at you.

SimpleDad81d ago

We do want better games, and we get them by criticizing bad ones.

Eonjay81d ago

No you don't. Everything is criticized by somebody these days. By that logic everything is bad. Thats just more fuel for the echo chamber. The way you get games you want is by supporting the types of games you want by buying them. You want more games like Astrobot? Buy Astrobot. Recommend it to others. Its not about bashing what you don't like. its about supporting what you do like. Money talks.

SimpleDad81d ago

Absolutely, I buy my games cause subscriptions are also part of the problem. I don't criticize myself personally, but by observing criticism by others, I avoid purchasing games with problems.

TheColbertinator81d ago

No we don't. FIFA and Madden get criticized every year and the games get worse and more overpriced.

Christopher81d ago

Lack of profit is the only way to do it, but people are fine buying shit games every day, just not the shit games we talk about regularly here. We distract ourselves with this stupid 'social mirage' issue and the corporations get to keep doing less and less but selling it for more and more.

Armaggedon81d ago

“Better game” with big air quotes. What you like more, makes more sense.

Gamingsince198180d ago

Says the only guy in the world that likes vanguard, I bet you like avowed aswell huh

Empathy has no value when it comes to killing a franchise loved by thousands.

Eonjay81d ago

Empathy always has value when dealing with other human beings. This includes empathy towards the fans who feel scorned and the devs who worked their asses off.

Far Cry New Dawn at 60 FPS now on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S

Post-apocalyptic Hope Country just got a whole lot smoother. Time to take on the Highwaymen like never before !

Psychonaut8596d ago

Please up the frame rate on Far Cry 3 Classic Edition Ubisoft. No one cares about New Dawn.

dantesparda96d ago

I would also love Primal and Far Cry 4, but the real price would be Assasin's Creed Unity.

But here's alist of games I'd like to see The Last Guardian, Blood borne, Sleeping Dogs, Batman Arkham Knight, Just Cause 3 & 4, Red Dead Redemption

Rebel_Scum96d ago

New Dawn was not a great FC. Who even wanted this?

FortWaba96d ago

This is the same company that updated AC Syndicate to have 60fps out of nowhere, instead of the VASTLY more popular Black Flag, or even a game that actually needs it like any of their recent releases.
