Returnal sequel Setting is named "Carcosa" so expect lovecraf callbacks

I thought " this seems kind of 2000s", then I saw Housemarque. Love this studio, HATE how they went AAA. I don't think we'll ever see them release a game per year ever again. <Who's Housemarque? They made Returnal, but they're also the guys who made Stardust. No, not just Super Stardust HD, but the original Stardust way back when. These guys are from the 80s. Anyway, I like how the music sounded like a mix of Sunn O))) and Electric Wizard

The husk of ZA/UM attempts to pretend they're still relevant! Several of the artists are still there, if you're wondering why it looked so much like DE.
>>1785931 How is Returnal? It seemed like it was PS5's only game until it got ported to PC.
>>1785931 I completely forgot about this game after it was announced, only remembering it after hearing it was going to be a part of this stream. I see Sony is investing in it a lot, despite how Returnal was forgotten pretty quickly after it came out. Is anyone even excited for this?

What do you call this genre? **CoDslop?*
>>1785942 Yeah, CoDslop.
>>1785941 It's still funny how Battlefield is out-performing the new CoD.
>>1785942 Ironically now that CoD has gone full Fortnite there's actually a market for it.

it's really him
How was the original Let It Die? I was interested back when it came out, but I never got around to it.
>>1785983 It's pretty unique, it's like the idea of a game from the 80s but made today. It's free but requires some grinding that, oddly, not even being a paypig will save you from

I wouldn't have guessed this was a Japanese game.
This is really pretty
>>1785989 You're really pretty
>Crimson Desert This game is probably gonna be shit, but I hope it's at least somewhat fun
>>1785990 T-thanks~
>>1785988 >2d >interesting art style >action platformer >japanese Oh yeah, its gonna be good.
>>1785992 I like that has a seemingly white main lead in a fantasy game with little to not poc. It's like something that would have been made in the early to mid 2000s.
>>1785997 As do I, but the game is too ambitious

There is absolutely no way this game is as good as the trailers have made it look. I want to be excited, it looks like one of the best RPGs in 15 years, but that's why I'm doubtful.
If they spent that much time on advertising shitty bluetooth speakers they probably don't have much else to show.

>>1785999 Have you not watched the extended gameplay videos? The combat is janky and everyone slides around on the bottoms of their feet.
This feels like an internal presentation. >We and preased to announce our series has crossed one hundred mirrion sares!
>>1785999 Yeah, I feel the same way.
>Insomniac Wolverine It's basically over
>>1785999 I want to believe Black Desert looks good, but I hate MMOs
(205.69 KB 1253x703 OH SHIT.jpg)

This is the one that was leaked a thousand years ago and seemed abysmal, right?
>>1786011 Yeah, the combat and camera looked terrible.
Wonder if they changed it from the leaks because the leaks were VERY pozzed.

I hope the writing is better than some of their recent games. Their most recent Ratchet and Clank is fun but the writing is by far the worst part. >>1786011 >>1786012 It possibly looked abysmal because it was barely in development.
>>1786013 Considering how Spider-Man 2 turned out, I doubt it. >>1786014 That's what I thought, but the camera looks the same in this video.
>>1786010 It's almost shocking they had a Deux Ex remake and barely showed it. Probably because they knew it looked fucking awful.
>>1786016 >Considering how Spider-Man 2 turned out, I doubt it. There's been a pretty big culture shift since then.
>>1786019 culture war autism aside, the gameplay just looked bad.
I'm not going to lie, I don't like games with HYPER-REALISTIC BLOOD. I like ridiculous fantasy violence, not "the devs obviously reference snuff films" violence.
>>1786021 Some of the death in those Tomb Raider reboots made me physically ill and not want to keep playing the game. Them being Uncharted clones finished the job
>>1786021 I mean i don't like hyper realistic games tobegin with it, its a big turn off

Reminder what working with Sweet Baby Inc. nets you. >>1786019 Yes, the culture has shifted, but I doubt it's hit some of the more pozzed companies like Insomniac and Playstation. People in those types of companies don't tend to listen to what the customer wants and instead push what THEY want, despite how much it's despised. Remember how Spider-Man 2 pushed for MORE Mary-Jane missions, despite how they were considered the worst part of the first game.
>>1786001 They, indeed, didn't have shit to show.
(633.49 KB 1253x703 STATEOFPLAY25-38.png)

And it's over. Thoughts? I guess it wasn't terrible but it didn't really feel impactful either. Let it Die 2, Chronoscript, Nioh 3 looked good. I think a problem is how many of these games were already announced. <<1786026 Please leave this to GG, I'm begging you.
>>1785948 Why ? This looks like shit
(110.93 KB 1280x720 in da fresh.jpg)

>>1786038 They had the chance to actually make Denton look like the 23-year-old he is and they still went with the middle aged police vet look.
(42.08 KB 500x500 tiresome.jpg)

>>1786033 >Thoughts? What's going to happen to the industry once they run out of games to remaster? Are they going to make a remaster of that remaster?
>>1786043 Having a Goebbels hairline at 23 lmao
>>1786033 Very little new announcements, but also very little PoC and political pandering. I guess I'd give it a C? I could maybe be talked up to C+?
>>1786043 Paul looks like he is in his late 40s and is tired of his night shift job, look at the giant bag under his eyes. the hair looks like trash, and that hair line is just the cherry on top. They put desaturated filter over it, probably to to hide the imperfections in the models and the amateurish texture work.
>>1785965 Was leaked a week ago >ProtoMan over Roll A shame. >>1786014 Are they still pretending this is PS5 exclusive? >>1785961 >>1785948 What a shame.
>>1786076 Paul looks fucking 70 I'm crying
>>1786014 At best there's gonna be a love triangle between Wolverine, Jean Grey and Cyclops just like in the comics >>1786019 So what? You think they care about destroying their company? Remember how the people working at Concord and Veilguard got rehired by different studios
>>1786130 >Remember how the people working at Concord and Veilguard got rehired by different studios Making a bad product is different from failing at it.
>>1785871 >have to sign in Guess I won't be watching. Fucking jewtube.
>>1786033 >Nioh 3 looked good I've played the demo, it's not. Not unless they've changed everything since 3 or 4 months ago.
>>1785982 >>1785987 Fuck yes! This calls for a thread: >>1786594
>>1786076 This somehow looks worse than Invisible War. How did they make Paul older in the past than JC looks in the sequel? And I wonder if they'll fuck with the writing? Like any of the truthnukes from the OG, the NSF leader, Morpheus AI, etc.
>>1786014 >I hope the writing is better than some of their recent games You actually have hope for Naughty Dog doing anything that's not putting all their energy into making sure they're on the path to closure?! Don't forget they not only have Druckmann, but he's emptying their bank out on that space bounty hunter game that lost every ones interest with its first trailer. >>1786019 >There's been a pretty big culture shift since then The games been in development for years and there's been no evidence they give two shits that their ideology is hated and reverse course. >>1785962 Better to be paraded as a corpse than to be revived and subjected to the torture Crapcoms other IPs have to go through.
>>1785981 They're cutting out content from the WotL version, it has Denuvo, it's 60$. Oh and it's "remade for the classic audience". I'm expecting the localization thread to have a field day with this one.
