Is it becoming a norm for companies to make promises they don't intend to keep?
The Epic Games Store continues their giving ways and have a AAA title to add to your library, plus a fun 5v5 MOBA game as well
Eh. Finally played Callisto Protocol via Gamepass. It was fine, but didn't feel like playing more than a couple hours in. I'll still grab it for free though. Have yet to purchase anything from the EPIC store, but still have over 20 games in my library.
honestly even tho I still prefer steam, over the last 4 years I always collected the weekly epic games, and now suddenly when you look at your library one day you realize you picked up around 400 free games a good portion of which are AAA, big win, and with gog, amazon prime, crazy powerful gpu's like 4090, windows 11 being way better than the dark days of windows 8 there has never been a better time to be a pc gamer, this is simply the best time for pc gaming fhat I can remember.
What is everyone's guess on the Next Xbox I'd like to know.
I really think it'll be a PC Console that's open to all Game Stores. I think there will be more than one version aswell including a high end expensive one.
It looks like it's the only way out for Microsoft but an interesting one too..
From ex Dead Space devs, The Callisto Protocol is a hidden horror game gem, and now director Glen Schofield opens up on production problems.
All too common for games to have ridiculously long dev cycles and have so much cut. Also too common for newer IPs to have their dev cycle cut short and be forced out before they're anywhere near a complete state. We're playing incomplete games either way cept some get good scores others are thrown to the wolves. 70 dollar standard be doin fine work this gen.
Game was a already-done-before regurgitated mess. More content was not going to save it. Stepped off on the wrong foot altogether. Even free, it goes unplayed.
There are points in the game that felt like it was drawn out so if content was cut then it was probably for the better.
The Callsto Protocol 2 plans shared by Glen Schofield, as he also confirms they had to cut enemies and bosses in the first game.
Why? The DLC pretty much wrapped everything up and was awful.
Especially what they did to Jacob over making a sequel which could have gave him better character development.
Callisto Protocol is an extremely underrated game (after the updates). Krafton, however, made a mistake by looking to overmonetize a single player game by cutting out content and selling it as dlc. Paying for extra death animations was scummy. And you can't get away with that crap with a new IP. Save it the sequel or, better yet, don't do it at all. Survival horror is a crowded market.
amazing horror game and unbelievable graphics, really happy that a sequel is being discussed.
No idea about XXXX as I don't pay any attention to that kind of PR talk, but I started playing this yesterday and I'm reasonably impressed with the production values and game so far. Certainly atmospheric. Better than I thought it would be after reading all the negative stuff. The dodge mechanic seems fine.
What else is new... people will say any kind of BS to promote their game.
Nobody can deny that, but people still having fun with it. And it looks gorgeous. I hope they get to work on more for this IP.
AAA devs always Use buzzwords to hype their games. Each gen is a little different. Last gen was traversal and immersion, before that it was HD graphics. Now it's AAAA production. Which doesn't even make any sense anyway. How much money and production was thrown behind it to make it AAAA. Or maybe it was AAAA in their eyes considering the help they had with the production. Maybe they associate graphics with AAAA production? That's just it, it's made to confuse and is up for interpretation.
Regardless, to me it makes no sense at least "traverse" and "immersion" paints the pictures of how games will be. Or "HD graphics" makes perfect sense. The first time graphics will be in high def (720p) at the time. This games is "AAAA" ???? Ok
I'm enjoying the game so far but to me it's an AAA game.
