“Organics and synthetics can’t live together in harmony”

It wasn’t about the choices we made, it was about the Marauder Shields we lost along the way :(
Nope, it sucked. Even the extended ending was still bad.
It did ambiguity badly. It also shoehorned in a revelation and debate “AI and biologicals can’t co-exist” that you could literally disprove if you’d done the previous missions correctly. And it tossed aside any real consideration of the thoughts or decisions…
I would rather have a person managing the tides of war than an algorithm. A person knows how to react to player sentiment and keep things interesting, a computer doesn’t.
Line must go up!!! They can make a lot of money per quarter but if it is flat then the execs and shareholder think that is failure. So they slate more games than they can really support (and more than the audience can consume). This leads to the over hiring/mass layoff cycle as the too many games in the pipeline make…
Games have been getting canceled for a long, long time. You just don’t hear about most cancelations because they happen to unannounced games that have never been leaked.
I am getting so tired of AAAs just seemingly constantly canceling projects. Like at this point just stop announcing things if you’re going to have to keep canceling them years into production.
We should all take a moment and smile. Games don’t often turn on our imaginations like this. Humans can be cool.
Honestly, the best thing about Helldivers is that within like 2 weeks of release we’re getting stories that read like things that came out of Eve Online without having to play Eve lol.
Forbidden West fell very hard into the classic sequel trap of trying make everything bigger, better, and just plain more.
It won a ton of Game of the Year awards, and many other technical awards. By any metric, I don’t think it could be called underrated.
One of the best-selling and highest rated games of that year… “underrated”.
This was my thought reading this. It is pretty universally considered a great game. Not sure why that is in the headline. It was one of the game that led me to get a PS4. Its all around one of my favorites. Forbidden West didn’t really pull me in the same - I don’t know the map got too big, it wasn’t new anymore, or…
Zero Dawn was lovely once I returned to it after Breath of the Wild. Forbidden West didn’t hit the same highs for me. The story wasn’t as compelling, the combat was... fine. I hope they can stick the landing with the third.
Don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone ever refer to Horizon as “underrated”
Spider-Man 2 SPOILERS
I didn’t think the ending meant he was never going to be Spider-Man again. Just that he needed a vacation from it to help get his life on track after multiple tragedies. I’d like to think they wouldn’t write it so that he would just ignore people who need his help when he’s the only one that can in the moment. Just…
I know everything is opinion, but god damn I love how absurd it looks when you guys post articles like this.
I’m definitely a fan of the sentries - yeah, they can chew through you and your teammates but that’s true of airstrikes as well. I find they’re the most useful strategems for extraction, or if you’re playing with a group that likes to split up and take on objectives separately.
