Re: Sony Won't Be Holding a Traditional Press Conference at E3 2018

Really the only 2 games I'm interested in seeing more of are Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding. The Last of Us Part 2 is probably just gonna be more TLoU with a few changes here and there, since innovation isn't exactly Naughty Dog's strong suit, and we already have a solid grasp on what kind of game Spider-Man will be.

I'm not entirely sure yet. The first game was a lot of fun, but I'm not a mega fan like most people are. The story and characters didn't do much for me and they were honestly pretty boring, and the world didn't have a whole lot to do in it IMO. Plus, the fact that they made so much money from GTA Online could mean a watered-down single player experience and probably no single player DLC like Undead Nightmare, not to mention the micro-transactions and whatnot.

It has a lot of potential, but I need to see more. I'm not as into Rockstar as I am other studios.

@rjejr They definitely massively improved on the first one, which was a steaming pile of garbage, but the core gameplay mechanics of running around, shooting people, climbing, and solving puzzles haven't really changed. Pretty much all they've added is a few sequences with vehicles, swinging on a rope, and pushing around boxes.

Naughty Dog doesn't tend to like innovation very much when it comes to their gameplay. I really don't think it's gonna change much from the first TLoU. Uncharted has barely changed at all since the first one, aside from simply refining what was already there.

It's certainly not gonna be the next God of War IMO, that's for sure. I doubt those standards will be met, let alone surpassed, for a while.

Re: Soapbox: Why God of War Will Scratch Your Zelda Itch

@RedMageLanakyn I don't really understand how any logical person could be upset over that. Sure, the hardcore adult Nintendo fans might buy Labo, but let's be real, Labo is a children's toy, while God of War is a game meant for teenagers and adults. They're going to appeal to vastly different groups of people for the most part.

As for the main point of the article, I wouldn't say it quite scratches my Zelda itch, as it's simply too different IMO, but there are definitely similarities. The structure of the game is similar enough to Zelda in some ways. Certainly more of a Zelda game than Breath of the Wild was.

@Ralizah I think you should give it a shot. I'm not super far into the game yet, maybe 1/4 of the way through, but the characters are definitely growing on me. I don't see what's wrong with the art style, and the game is honestly gorgeous IMO, but that's personal preference.

Re: Review: Metal Gear Survive (PS4)

KirbyTheVampire

I'm really tired of zombie games, personally. I don't know if I could stand playing another zombie survival game.

Either way, good for the reviewer that he stuck to his guns and reviewed the game based on how he truly felt about it, rather than how the masses felt about it. I personally don't feel like this game is an 8/10 at all, but the world would be pretty boring if we all felt the same way about everything.
