MindsEye gets a PEGI 18 rating for motiveless violence, strong language, and disturbing content involving innocent characters.
Build a Rocket Boy, the developer behind the upcoming action-adventure game MindsEye, has been accused of fostering a toxic work environment.
Well we already know where the review scores are going to be for this one. Who knows how his game is going to be but the narrative has been set and everybody is running with it so expect some pretty low reviews.
This is definitely not a day one for me and I'll wait for it to go on sale one day. Which probably won't be too long LOL.
This game releases in 13 days and we still don't really have a clear idea on what it is exactly. Everytime a game releases without some extended gameplay to show us what the actual loop looks like it turns out they were hiding a turd. I hope im wrong, we could use more urban open world games to at least give us something other than GTA alone, but the marketing for this game is weird
Culture in work environment should be good and fair to everyone.
But Hope this game is good and sells well so companies can invest in more single player titles, can do without anymore live service trash.
Gameplay footage of MindsEye leaks online one month before its release, showing strong similarities to the GTA games.
Looks generic. Like 2010 style open world shooter mechanics. Underwhelming graphics and presentation. Stiff movements. Empty open world driving.
Last month or so they wanted ppl to pre order the game with out no gameplay shown. Now I see why. Get the money now up front get ppl hyped "look we made GTA!" take the money and use GTA devs as a marketing tool. This got leaked I think this was controlled leaked 100% because the streamer watching is praising the game and Super excited. He had to have gotten paid. The comments on Twitter were saying how bad the game looks, the opposite. Plus how come they themselves haven't released gameplay footage? Again a month away and no official gameplay footage from the team?
I could be wrong about all this but this screams deceptive marketing with paid off streamer who's super hyped for it.
I think this game will bomb. I say delay it and rework everything.
They have shown off gameplay, in a very controlled way though. It's very hidden and shrouded in cutscenes. I will still be getting it, because it looks to have a solid base for what they could add on to it in the future. All great games start off somewhere and it's not always perfect from the start. As long as the story is good, and the mechanics work as they should, I can get through it if it's generic. There's been plenty of generic action shooter games out there that was still good overall because of the story. Binary Domain and Spec Ops come to mind when I think of generic shooting games that were still great to me.
I'm glad I got Spec Ops. It was delisted not long after I did. Same thing with Marvel UA 1 and 2.
Can something be generic when there are next to no single player third person shooters released anymore?
It's going to be a linear open world GTA-like adventure. I think it looks decent enough. Plus it's coming out this year instead of 2026. If you don't wanna play it that's on you. A lot of us are looking forward to it.
The footage makes it feel like the camera is following behind the car on wheels.. What is it with developers and swaying cameras or erratic movements? I hate it, reminds me of Dead Island or that other game that tried to be like GTA called APB.. This already puts me off.
"leaks online one month before its release"
ONE MONTH?
This comes out in a month? We hardly know anything about it, I assumed the footage we did have was super early stuff as in why we hadn't seen much of it and explained why it felt like it was shrouded in secrecy.
My main thing with open world games like this, is will it have the means for having fun and messing around. Honestly just playing with the sandbox is what i spent most hours in the GTA series doing.
The game is actually not an open world title but a linear game

Yeah, based on that and the recent gameplay leaks, it looks like the open world just serves a purpose of getting for a mission to mission, kind of like the mafia games
its from one of the former makers of GTA, so you might as well enjoy it because who knows when GTA 6 will come out at this point
MindsEye, the upcoming action-adventure thriller from ex-GTA producer Leslie Benzies, has been rated M17+ by the ESRB for blood, sexual themes, and violence.
I’m thinking that this will be good. If it isn’t, then yes. Rockstar was correct in stating that he didn’t contribute much to their success.
The whole thing was really ugly. There’s different articles, here’s a quick one that I found regarding his departure from Rockstar.

This is the type of game that true gamers have at the top of their lists to buy (pending reviews)
It's new, it's trying something different and it's a new single player third person shooter. Those games have been very few and far between lately.
Now that's something never done before. Ubisoft should learn from this formula. Like how cool would it be if you could even assassinate human characters. Just imagine the controversy the developers would get.
