I see Beyond Good and Evil got edgy.

 

[Here Comes Tomorrow]

I thought I wanted Beyond Good And Evil 2 but it turns out I didn't after all.

It was disapointing to see an prequel instead of a sequel. At least it's happening... I guess that's good. Maybe.

So I just want to say to all those who may have actually gotten hyped about BGAE2...

They said it's been 15 years since the first one.
Remember the LAST time there was a 15 year gap between games?

And how THAT turned out?

Difference is all we saw of Beyond Good and Evil 2 the last time was a cinematic, no gameplay trailer in 2008:


We saw how Duke Nukem Forever was being developed on, including gameplay footage, over the years.

ok from what ive seen of far cry 5.. you can both sic bears on red necks and run them over with a combine harvester.. its like they are making a game just for me *happy sigh*

Casual Shinji it was a far cry from controlling or moving like a plastic action figure. That would be like something from Platinum Games. From what I've played it felt far more like TLoU.

Well, I'd have to completely disagree with that. Your character lacks any real weight and he animates stiffly. The way he controls and the way the camera is positioned never gives you the feeling that you're ever in control over any situation, be it enemies, traps, or one of the numerous 'running away from shit' moments. There's always the fear of a cheapshot/insta-kill waiting right outside of your peripheral vision.

Completely disagree on all points. Evil Within positions itself somewhere between RE Remake and RE4 and the gameplay is actually perfectly suited to this blend of tactical shooter and survival horror. It is the intent of the game for encounters to feel claustrophobic and tense and that it's all about creating distance between yourself and the enemies instead of blasting through them. The game has it's quirks but I enjoyed it more than 90% of other both horror and action games. The Evil Within simply never becomes boring or repetitive which I think is an accomplishment for a game that is actually quite long. Despite it's minor shortcomings it's simply an awesome game.

Holy shit, it's Beyond Good and Evil 2 a Ubisoft game that isn't an open-world, stealth, collect-a-thon. (Right????)

Yeah... maybe once the sequel's released. As for now, I'm afraid not.

That's a bit immature, don't you think?

I mean, if there was a game focused on killing BLM or some other leftist group, and I expressed delight in this concept, it probably wouldn't be well received. Shouldn't be much different with the other side of the coin.

shush, we don't know it isnt open world yet

plus you forgot the required multiplayer mode

I also forgot pre order bonuses, season passes and microtransactions -- There's only so much awfulness I can put in one sentence before my heart gives out.

The bad guys in Far Cry 5 are part of a sinister, homicidal cult.

Why on earth do you consider that the counterpart to "a leftist group"?

Must EVERYTHING be politicized? Holy fuckballs.

 

[Here Comes Tomorrow]

ANYWAY

How can we find the guy who used the Monkey's Paw to wish for Beyond Fucking Good and Fucking Evil 2 and how do we stop him?

 

[Yoshi178]

Did Ubishit just win E3?

 

[Here Comes Tomorrow]

Did Ubishit just win E3?

No.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Did Ubishit just win E3?

I heard talk of "seamless online playground", so no. Beyond Good and Evil 2 is likely to get Ubisoft bullshit shoved down its gullet.

Just running around with a torch shows what a shoddy mess this game is. You might call it nitpicking, but seeing as you're using that torch quite a bit, it's riduculous nobody on the development team cared about the fact that the fire is clipping right through the guy's chest whenever you're running.

It definitely at least controlled better than RE4

I haven't played RE4 in quite a few years, but what I remember was it being much clunkier than TEW, even though it was certainly better than RE1-3.



Without even playing it's clear TEW has more fluid animations, more character weight, and smoother controls. Was RE4 more polished for its time? Possibly, but that generation was also quite a bit simpler.
