Apparently the game might not be console exclusive...
https://mp1st.com/news/phan... They asked the dev... "Question 6: Will it be time exclusive or release at the same time on other platforms? For now we don’t have any exclusivity on any platform."
@abracadabra apparently? i clicked the link, read the article and there's nothing new there, ps5 and pc = not platform exclusive, go on grab another straw it may be a winner this time
Yeah it looked like a really good mix of a lot of games. Felt like I was watching Metal Gear Rising and Ghost of Tshushima with some souls in there. Super stoked for this
@potatoseal Be careful. A lot of these games from China can be deceiving. Most either take years to release or they never release, and if they do release it’s nothing like what they originally showed.
It's interesting you say that. When watching the trailer I remember thinking to myself the movement looks TOO choreographed for a game. The movements looked too good to be true. We'll see...
I liked it, but I worry that the many slashes were more flourish in style and not really tied to button presses at specific times. I'd love to see a demo walkthrough of the combat to allay my concerns.
The games like Black Myth: Wukong and this one coming out of China have yet to be proven trustworthy. I can't help but get my hopes up though. I'm hoping these flourishes are at least individually pressed by the trigger, very similar or exactly like Sekiro. I hope it's not a, *press button* and then character goes into a whole 3 second long animation of the move. I mean, if you've played it, Sekiro combat was just phenomenal and really felt good.
"I liked it, but I worry that the many slashes were more flourish in style and not really tied to button presses at specific times."
Your concerns are legit and real!
"I hope it's not a, *press button* and then character goes into a whole 3 second long animation of the move."
Sorry to be the one to bring the disappoint news:
Those were automatic combos tied to a single press of a button. That´s because the game will feature developer´s own 10 years old mobile combat system "successfully" ported to console, which will allow gamers to perform incredible choreographed combos with a single press of a button.
Also, the camera angle we saw will not make it to the final game. It was some kind of E3 2005´s Motorstorm trailer all over again.
Another point of concern is that game has been development since 2017 till 2022 (when it enter full development process) by only 2-3 people.
Everyone says we need Microsoft just for the sake of competition but since they're not competing Id like to see steam box have another go. A ps5 and a console like a PC would be all anyone needs.
I don’t trust these Chinese devs. Most of their games are too good to be true and just ending up disappearing. Remember this is a mobile dev making this.
They'd already said since the last trailer a while back. That it wasn't going to be releasing in 2023. Not like it just vanished, this has been known for a long time.
I always thought that CG fight scene in Onimusha would one day become a reality. Every Gen, the CG video became the gameplay and graphics of the next or a Gen after.
But the fighting and animation never came. Companies concentrated on resolution and 4K over physics and animation. https://youtu.be/yi-W_PAAiw... But Ghost of Tsushima was close enough for me but needed that parrying of multiple enemies. Here's hoping the current consoles can display that. It's on my radar just like Ronin, Like a Dragon, etc.
Everyone's praising Tears of the Kingdom right now, especially for doing what it does on the Switch, yet that's what a true, meaningful exclusive does: it uses the hardware that its on. Allows devs to become so familiar with it they can make games that do backflips.
Point was that hardware familiarity tends to trump power. The PS2 was the weakest console of its gen yet went on to become one of the highest selling systems of any gen. Meanwhile MS tends to make a big deal about having the most powerful system in a gen, yet the most they've done with that power are ports of PC games. Nothing outstanding such as a God of War or Zelda title.
It's kung-fu sword play/setting makes it stand out from the samurai based games we've been getting recently. Uses unreal engine 5 from what I understand, really compelling presentation.
This game has shot right up to my most anticipated. It blew me away
thats awesome news!!
Awesome to see it coming to PC as well, hopefully it's a great port!
This looks good hopefully it plays well. Need a deep dive gameplay vid to be sure.
Next Xbox should be a PC. Problem solved.
