The Battle of Endor had some editing issues (watch for the A-wing pilot who gets shot down three times), but I’d say the space battle sequences hold up even BETTER than the Battle of Yavin from the Original Trilogy. In fact it’s STILL possibly the BEST space battle in film history. And it was ALL done with practical…

You realise they’re talking specifically about the special effects, right? TMP’s V’Ger, and the refit Enterprise herself, still look great today. There’s a reason why I still go back and watch the ‘Enterprise leaves spacedock’ scene every now and then. It’s absolutely majestic.

except the neon signs ruine Tatooine for me. There aren’t supposed to be any neon or electric signs there.

Oh man I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought their environmental designs seem to be missing the mark.

Looks terrible- I really hate this generic shiny, shimmering appearance that seems so common in the ‘big three’ AAA engines today (Unreal 4, CryEngine and Frostbite). It significantly damages my immersion in delicately-crafted virtual environments.

Yeah. Bucky straight up tried to murder Stark. It’s not like he was in his armor or something. Like... the fuck?

Gotta wonder at whom this whole ad campaign is aimed at.

I look forward to the day we meet again.

Wait, story isn’t what matters in games? Maybe for you, captain, but plenty of people prefer a good story over gameplay.

Bethesda should have been/should be more professional toward Kotaku. 20 years ago journalists had a JOB to be aggressive and picky and ask the tough questions that would piss off a guest, dig for the dirt nobody wanted known, etc. Woodward and Bernstein! Now the scales have flipped and journalism has almost become a…

Nevermind Kotaku. Bethesda should have been nicer to RPG fans.

It really is an underwhelming game, though. :(

You mean the dull boring cookie cutter settings they rip off from other people? The dull worlds full of ugly cookie cutter visuals? You MUST be falling in love with that, because you certainly aren’t falling in love with the clunky, clumsy, boring, and incredibly clumsy gameplay.
