What is this, 15FPS?
And would it be too much to ask to have synched audio in their trailer?

All I see is more future waste

Anyone know where I can buy a 100€ controller that looks exactly like a joy-con, but wired?

If it's true, I'm hoping it will just be a lick of 2DHD and not much more.

@AlonditeFE I don't know. If most aspects are their greatest work yet, but there's a few dealbreakers, that sounds like a legitimate thing to say.
It wouldn't be the first time I could acknowledge how great a game is, while an irritating sidekick or one song ruins the experience.

I love how this is not a 10

XBC 2 was great but it also had the most ridiculous breasts I've ever seen in a game. These poor girls' backs...

@quinnyboy58 You know this is going to score 10/10, right? No matter how irritating the characters are.

I regret not keeping my expectations low for Tears of the Kingdom, after that perfect 10.

But yeah, it would be hard to come up with something more generic than these.

"Hey GPT, can you generate Pixar style character designs for each sci-fi archetype?"

@wanghaf As a 16 year old, I already thought her oversized breasts looked stupid. It was the only thing I would have changed.
Never had pink hair though.

Yes, someone in this thread complained about her breasts getting smaller.
These people do exist.

This list is stupid.
You should have intervened. I thought number 1 would actually be last.

Can't recommend this enough!

It felt like they left some options open for a sequel 🤞

So don't call this 'definitive'

I absolutely despise black friday and it should just be ignored. It's everything that's wrong in the world.

Is anyone still waiting for this though?

Those Breath of the Wild comparisons are really out of place here. Also, BotW did not invent the open world.

And having a few hubs does not make something 'quasi open world' 😅

So Tomb Raider -> Uncharted trying to be Tomb Raider -> Tomb Raider trying to be Uncharted but leaving little reason for Uncharted to try to be Tomb Raider again.

And all of that leads to one definitive edition with ps3 graphics. Full circle.

I'm a new RE fan and the returning characters often feel more like fan service. Not as if they absolutely need to be there.
So I could really do without.

These characters also come from another era. When people had an entirely different idea of what was cool. It clashes a bit when you bring them into the new games.
The tone is now much too subtle for those edgy 90's puppets.

But that's also why I don't like Kindgom Hearts and FF7R. Most people don't seem to worry about tone if they can get easter eggs out of it.

That's what you get when greedy companies try to sell a 0,5 generation console upgrade as a full generation upgrade.
And when they gatekeep good optimisation to make their own games look better.

@stuie1234 I knew this was going to happen: everyone getting excited about the first photos, but they only prove that animation would have worked much better.

Just look at the leather strap on Zelda's shoulder. It looks brand new and has no wear and tear. Even a medieval princess has at least some scratches on her leather straps. The same seems to apply to the Hylian crests on the horses. It all looks too clean and fabricated!

This does not bode well for the rest of the art direction.

Zelda looks great (this was never going to be an issue) but Link looks like he got those highlights for 10$, half an hour before taking this picture.
He might have more charisma when we see him move, but this photo isn't screaming 'leading man' to me.

But this isn't the actor's fault. This is why it always had to be animation.
I thought they were going for Avatar-like motion capture that practically made it 3D animation? What happened to that??

Neither of them would attract my attention in a store.

Skyward Sword had bad controls and was too linear, but it's one of the few games where the lore felt like more than an afterthought.
And it did have some amazing dungeons and the best score.

I'm really glad to see people are looking at Tears of the Kingdom a bit more objectively now.

@StewdaMegaManNerd Toy Story 5 really wasn't necessary

I was really hoping they wouldn't take the Breath of the Wild version of Hyrule.
BotW has become FF7. There will be no end to this.

@ROOCIS Nobody was talking about what other companies do. Others doing the same, does not excuse anything.

Ah yes, it starts. We will now be force-fed the entire movie in little snippets for the next few months.

The Pokemon Company should take some cel shading lessons from Level-5

It's almost as if many people are over this version of Hyrule.

Yeah I don't know if Glover belongs in that category : )

@hisownsidekick Ah yes, I was a Sega kid at the time, so I tend to forget!

@G_and_Thomas It doesn't NEED to be 3D, but it certainly CAN be.

Are those twin tails going to be used as a helicopter? Miles Tails Prower style? Or as a sail for gliding?
The series could definitely use some fresh mechanics.

Even though I love the 2D style, I'd love to see them explore a 3D Shantae game. But I'll take anything. This character deserves more fame.

@SuppressorSteve I know, but still, they're publishing consistently mediocre games

That's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. A soundtrack is literally just a bunch of tracks to upload.
The reason they haven't added this is that they want to keep users engaged until their figures tell them it's the right time to release.

Just more fan gaslighting. Don't believe any of this!

Pokemon games are so out of character for Nintendo

I'd like to see a poll: Do you want Nintendo to release Breath of the Wild and Xenoblade Chronicles on PS5 & XBOX?
Why they insist on their exclusives for underpowered consoles is beyond me.

I loved having one spin-off for Breath of the Wild. Instead, it became their Final Fantasy VII / Star Wars. Producing content until all the magic is sucked out of it.

I certainly hope they're not giving up on Ni No Kuni because of those movie sales.
That's how producers think: make one bad movie and assume there is no interest in the franchise anymore.

More work done by AI, less people to pay, so prices will definitely increase.

That's just AAA dev logic.

I also learned that The Happening is a 'cult classic' now 🤣

Just like how The Room and Plan 9 from Outer Space are classics, I hope? : )

@OmnitronVariant It's what you get when you don't put much effort into making a game. Especially if it's one of the most lucrative series and it looks worse than what a team of five can do in Indie games.
How hard can it be for them to hire a proper art director and voice actors?

@Retrograde As a new RE fan, I'm really happy with these remakes. The original ones have tons of atmosphere but are very difficult to get back into if you didn't learn the mechanics as they came out.
Now I get to experience the entire series with some basic QOL. I still struggled with 2 but it didn't make me restart the game.

I recently played this as my 2nd RE game. It definitely had a unique atmosphere so would love to play it after I get to 9.

The appeal of Balatro is still one of the greatest mysteries in gaming, to me.
But this looks a lot more fun.

@Jhena Don't worry. He can't harm you.

Well, SOME of those are exciting : )

If only Pokemon games would have more atmosphere. I WANT to love this series, but give me something substantial instead of all these empty husks.

@maulinks All that excitement at E3 was about the word 'Remake', not 'Rewrite'

Tetsuya Nomura is one of the all time great character designers. He's an awful storyteller.

@Suketoudara Oh no they didn't

@Olmectron lol I know but I didn't mean it was going to be a gruesome war drama, or anywhere near that quality. Just that they were released simultaneously and had very different vibes.
That's as far as it goes.
