Good morning y'all~

Aight let us look up Gematsu and see what got announced during TGA~

OK, first off
Sephiroth




Sephiroth in 20-fuckin-21

More Yakuza on Steam, yay~

Will watch Evil West trailer soon

Capcom stuff gonna be on Steam and other platforms by summer, so is all good, but I wish the arcade collection had more stuff in it :/ Forgotten Worlds is neat though so that's fine at least. Will watch GnG trailer, just to see whther it is an uprezed ver. of the PSP game XP

I need to watch that most famous Evil Dead film someday too now that It hink about it.

Vin Diesel in Ark 2. Vin. Diesel. Also did they rip off Horizon ZD or has Ark always having white people dressed in aboriginal/native people clothing :V

Dragon Age and Mass Effect are whatever, just grab them when they go on a deep discount some months after release.

W40K Darktide looks nice but was dissapointed that the characters aren't Space Marines or what have you.

Perfect Dark? Gimme the Rare Replay collection first please, before I could give a fuck about PD.

Tchia and Season, will view their trailers later.

So all in all, good thing I slept over watching TGA, hardly anything noteworthy. Some nice stuff but nothing OMG worthy.
Oh hey they're doing a remake for


Niiiiice

Also that league of legends game looks interesting

Season and Tchia caught my interest

Ignoring the horrific absence of Elden Ring and Bloodborne Remastered which makes me horrified at the extremely likely prospect of having to wait for another 6 months for the E3 2021, totally-not-Dead Space 4 looked kinda cool. Uh, that's about it I guess. 3 hours wasted. Fucking Doritos pope does it every single time.

ZA/UM released some more detailed information on the Disco Elysium Final Cut. :jj_sweet:


I'm so hype for this. I was expecting a Switch port and controller support, not all this content! New area, characters, dialogue, political alignments, aww yiss. Going to be the easiest replay of my life.

My only misgiving is going with full VO. While it's impressive that they'd do it (must've been a ton of work), I hope it doesn't alter the pacing too much. Being able to take in information slowly was nice, and I wonder if having so much more VO will encourage me to click through to the next line of dialog instead of taking my time. I really hope there's an option to keep the original quantity of voiced lines.

So maybe it was just youtube, but man did the animations in that Ark 2 trailer look stiff. That or Vin Deisel's character's arms don't move properly at elbow and he has to jerk his arms around.

I guess I will need to play Disco Elysium when new update comes out because they are solving my 2 main issues, lack of gamepad support and lack of VO.

I liked It Takes Two


And is it me or there were no new Epic Store exclusives?

Okay so it wasn't just me then. Yeah, I thought they looked super weird. Especially during the fight scenes.

This has piqued my interest. All three movies and the show (I'm assuming that's Kelly and not Linda, Annie, Cheryl, or Shelley);
edit: Just an fyi, its the evil dead trailer, which is apparently age restricted

Definitely not just you. It's like watching someone try to fight a dinosaur with their limbs are thawing from local anesthetic. So weird.

I mean comparing it to what shit looks like in the original Ark if that's actually from ingame and real animations etc it's amazing but ark is dumb as shit (I played it for 800 hours)
I just googled some random video don't really bother watching it, it's just an example of what Ark currently looks like

ARK 2, Crimson Desert, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Yakuza remasters, Oddworld: Soulstorm, Returnal, WH40K: Darktide, Back 4 Blood, Perfect Dark, Smash Bros Sephiroth, NieR, Elite Dangerous: Odyssey, maybe Hood, are the possibly interesting things from the show imo. Already stretching it for some as they were already a sure bet and the teasers don't really add anything to their prospects, others are promising but again just with shit teasers you can't tell, some were already known or even shown before this, so, hardly a great showing or anything. I mean, I have potentially dodgy PVP things and MMO crap in my list just cos they have a semi interesting concept (Hood reminds me of Thievery UT, a Thief inspired PVP mod for Unreal Tournament in the vein of later Splinter Cell multiplayer modes) even though there's probably a 10% chance I'll actually play them upon their release. Nothing really hyping there.


Edit: Monster Hunter Rise too, of course, possibly the biggest, but again we've seen so much of it already, cool as it it to have a new trailer, we know its deal.

Yakuza!

It will probably take a while until I get caught up though, lol. I played 0-2 at release and almost got burned out on it with 2, since they're so massive and released so close to each other :grimacing-face:
I'll take it slower with the others.

In game I don't mind the animation being jank. But if you can't make a cgi trailer look smooth, well it deserves to be derided by those like myself on a gaming forum. Just ask Vin Diesel to get his Tigon people to help or something

I'm not really sure what they were going for with that besides maybe thinking that one of the founders of the studio wanted to hang out with Vin Diesel Fossil Fuel

I'm both hard in for Left 4 Evil Dead and Left for 40k. Both look great and I love playing those kind of games with a couple of friends.

Just watched the trailer on YT and if I had to take a guess: The trailer either wasn't running at thirty fps or had other frame-pacing issues.
And I'm not even trying to make fun of the original ARK's performance this time around: It's a poorly made cgi trailer.

I know it's off topic but holy crap at the amount of potentially awesome stuff that Marvel Studios announced. Holy crap I say!

Catching up with the VGAs right now. Hearing one of the creators of Dead Space say that he's trying to make the scariest game ever is music to my ears. The teaser definitely makes it feel like a spiritual successor to DS.

So happy with the Yakuza announcement, having the whole saga on steam will be awesome.

I just checked the categories for The Game Awards.
I got a few questions
Best Sports/Racing - Why put two different genres into one category?
Best Action/Adventure and Best Action - Two categories, but action are in two different categories. What's the differences?
Best Sim/Strategy - Two genres again in one category...

Well it's lots of Star Wars also!
One way or another it just shows lack of creativity from them. There is no diversity on that streaming service. Where are new things? HBO at least tries to do something different. Same goes with Netflix.

We are reaching same point where US was with cable TV 30 years ago, streaming services are becoming themed one and you need to pick them like you had to pick channel packs on cable.

The Monster Hunter Rise demo coming out in January and the Ghosts n Goblins announcements match up with the Capcom ransomware leaks. Which means the PC port of Rise is hopefully guaranteed.
I mean, it was Capcom's internal data and it might not be worth changing anything just because of that leak, people are still excited about the games, people will buy them and Capcom will be happy, don't see why they would just switch strategies.

I assume his point is that it seems the leaks were true and we're getting Rise on PC so yay, not that Capcom would alter a release just cos its existence leaked.

Y'all do know them Capcom games are coming to Steam right?
But I guess y'all got too old and unskilled for good ol' 90s era gameplay and challenge, to be expected from playing all them vidya games what hand hold you all the way through their campaigns and coddle ya like babies :devilish:
I am gonna struggle in GnG R like all hell aren't I....
