my comment is geared toward the 30 or so studios working on titles not yet announced. in 5 years time most of those games will have come to market. the bulk of the microsoft owned studios recently aquired are just getting going on thwir projects. by the mid point of this console cycle theyll have a very impressive library.

Destor 06-13-2022 12:15 AM

out of this showcase though the mentioned titles im really liking forward to checking out. both are hitting PC so ill check it out on the steamdeck

Sepholio 06-13-2022 07:34 AM

If Starfield is as moddable as previous Bethesda games, its going to have a lifespan longer than skyrim.

Fignuts 06-23-2022 01:45 PM

Finally playing cyberpunk. If the game had released like this, I think it would have been considered for game of the year.

Still the occasional bug, but no more than you'd find in any game of this scale. World is gorgeous and fun to explore.

Combat feels good. Started with a blade build and was iffy on it at first, but after getting the mantis blades and double jump it got really fun.

Story is pretty good so far. Im into it. Side quests are alright. Nothing even close to the witcher 3 though.

drave 06-23-2022 03:06 PM

For real tho.......


Go "cold blood" stealth build with throwing knives and blades. The last big patch made any knife automatically respawn in your hand, with the delay based on the quality of the knife.


That, with a few hacks to take out surveillance, makes for a reeeeeeealy fun "cyber ninja" build.


I still need to do one more play through. I've used the mantis blades and the wire (also really fucking cool), but haven't used the mini-launcher that you can implant in your arm. That shit should be fun. Just go in and blow shit up instead of being sneaky.


If you stick with it (because good LORD it's a great game after they fixed their shit), up the difficulty, as enemies get kinda dumb.

Fignuts 06-23-2022 04:28 PM

I've actually started putting all my points into quick hacking. Got a legendary hack that straight up instakills an enemy, and I've got a cyberdeck that will spread it to an additional enemy. I can level up the radius and amount of enemies it spreads to, so I could potentially take down 6 people with one hack if they're close enough.

drave 06-23-2022 04:41 PM

That was my first go too. It makes the game EZ mode because you can scan all your targets for an entire area via remote cams, and hack them from there.


You can take out entire objective areas barely even entering them. Enjoy it, it's a blast for a bit, but found myself wanting more "action" after a while.

Fignuts 06-24-2022 01:40 AM

Yeah Im still gonna bust out the mantis blades and katana.

Also want to level up that giant dildo.

ClockShot 06-28-2022 07:42 AM

Skull & Bones. Ubisoft's pirate game spun off of AC 4: Black Flag, and known for being in development hell for a good 5+ years since being revealed back in 2017 at E3, could be finally coming to consoles soon. As you may know, it's been broken down and restarted more than once.

ESRB has given it a M rating. Usually that means the Board has been submitted a near or completed game for ratting approval.

Word going around the net is that Ubisoft will schedule a re-reveal of the game next week.

Fignuts 06-29-2022 01:32 AM

Im hoping the long delay was because they were making it a full on pirate game, ala Sea of Theives, rather than the ship combat game it started out as. Id be down for a black flag mmo.

drave 06-29-2022 07:59 AM

That'd be amazing. Black Flag was VERY fun.

ClockShot 07-05-2022 04:30 PM

Set some time aside this Thursday.

Meanwhile, Forspoken still needs more time and has been pushed into January 24th 2023.

Fignuts 07-07-2022 11:27 AM

Well shit I guess I need to get a PS5 before November.

Big Vic 07-07-2022 11:36 AM

If you have a switch the first one is free to play for a week.

So, I watched it yesterday. Not digging it yet. I'm hoping that as time goes by, Ubisoft will slowly reveal stuff that they're still keeping under wraps. Maybe one you will think differently.

Launch is November 8th, 2022. Not the best day since G.o.D Ragnarok launches the next day. So, the Playstation players will probably skip this. They're taking reservations for beta testing. But's only available through the PC. Now.

Here's the full show if anyone is interested.

Fignuts 07-08-2022 04:42 PM

Eh, looks like its almost all at sea, outside of docking in towns to buy shit, and small islands with chests.

I like ubisofts ship combat, but not enough to play a game thats just that.

drave 07-09-2022 08:37 AM

yeah, that'd get very tiresome very quick. :(

Fignuts 07-20-2022 10:11 AM

Fignuts here with your regularly scheduled news of No Man's Sky coming out with another huge update.

Completely free.

Again.

drave 07-20-2022 10:16 AM

duuuuuuuuude, i read about that and holy schnikes batman!!


I played it for a couple months, had a ship and don't remember exactly where I left off. Not a bad game, felt very time consuming, but overall enjoyable.

ClockShot 07-26-2022 08:27 PM

Report going around the internet says the Knights of the Old Republic remake for Sony and PC has been put on indefinite hold.

Aspyr's internal demo on how the game was coming along was shown to some Lucasfilm and Sony big shots and they were not happy at all. This has led to the firing of the design and art director.

Damn. And I was really stoked about this.

Kalyx triaD 07-27-2022 04:04 AM

Careful who you hire to write your RPG.

drave 07-27-2022 08:47 AM

A Wild Kalyx was spotted!

drave 07-27-2022 08:48 AM

OUch though, release moved back to 2025 - IF at all.

Sepholio 08-07-2022 06:22 PM

Wow, SNK announces a new Fatal Fury game after 23 years. Never thought I'd hear that name again.

drave 08-08-2022 08:29 AM

Not Terry Garou pls

Fignuts 08-08-2022 11:10 AM

Whaaaaaaat

Garou is arguably(not really) the best Fatal Fury game ever made.

Also, the picture showed Rock Howard so its most likely Garou 2.

drave 08-08-2022 12:59 PM

Just didn't like it. Much prefer Fatal Fury OG and Geese.

Fignuts 08-08-2022 01:04 PM

I just hope they choose a different art style for it. Maybe something like the new Samurai Showdown. The recent KOF games just look so mobile gameish

drave 08-08-2022 04:35 PM

Fair. That's my issue with Garou, is it just looks all same same as other fighters, really. The new Samurai Showdown art is SICK and I'd love it, but I'm not heavy into fighters to pay $70 for it.


I'm hoping for a GamePass or deeply discounted special GOTY or something, I dunno.

Sepholio 08-09-2022 06:38 AM

Fyi SNK is 96% owned by the Saudi royal family. It's a pet project of prince MBS. This makes their games prime targets for a little free range bootleggery as far as I am concerned. Better that than directly contributing to the Blood Money In The Bank Slush Fund and Trust.

drave 08-24-2022 08:29 AM

Masahiro Sakurai (created Kirby and Smash Bros) is creating an ad-free Youtube channel to talk about the game development industry, how things work and maybe small how-to's. Very cool.

Assassins' Creed: Mirage announced today by Ubisoft after it was leaked early today.

September 10th will have a Ubisoft Forward show to tell all about it.

Sepholio 09-13-2022 12:51 PM

Octopath 2 WOOOO. Zelda out next may as well. Nice.

Destor 09-13-2022 07:37 PM

Im outrageously amped for Octopath 2

Fignuts 09-14-2022 12:48 AM

Was all like "pfffffffft" over the final fantasy rhythm game.

Then they said it would have 385 songs.

Then they said dlc would be music from Saga, Neir, Octopath and Live A Live.

God damn it.

Fignuts 09-14-2022 12:49 AM

Also lol at like 5,000 new farming games.

Destor 09-14-2022 07:14 AM

A few of them looking meaty though. Harvestella looks to have some pretty solid action
