| Topic | Called it from the beginning. The Avengers game looks dope... |

More power to people who are looking forward to it, and if it turns out to be good then I'm happy that I'm wrong, but I think the character models look like ass and the combat looks like dogshit to me. Keep in mind, I was virulently against God of War 2018 because I objected to the shift towards what I perceived to be slow, grounded, Dark Souls-inspired combat like every fucking thing was doing in the 8th generation. And when the game came out and I was able to see what it was like, I ended up fucking loving it. So maybe this will be like that, where I reject the basic design of a game based on previews but end up really enjoying the whole product once it comes out. Saying that - God of War 2018 always looked pretty awesome graphically, whereas the Avengers characters look generic and gross. It feels like they're trying to ride a line between cartoony and realistic, and all it accomplished is a bunch of character models that, at best, are metres away from falling down the uncanny valley. And I've seen Thor's gameplay - I think it looks terrible. With God of War, I was buttmad because they cleaned up this stupid-ass arcade hack and slash franchise for what looked like cheap clout, like if they made The Last of Us with Kratos. I was against that because sometimes you just need some stupid bloody fun, so why would you clean up Kratos and put him in a grounded story? Ultimately, that did work out. This time, I think the game just looks half baked. The characters look bland, the story is shaping up to be bland and unsurprising - if they haven't already announced it, I'm willing to bet $20 that Again - more power to you if you like how the game is shaping up. I think it looks awful, though. --- Are you proud to be a Mayonnaise American? ... Copied to Clipboard! |
