MossyMoss Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I am still confused AF what is the game about, very curious in how the gameplay and two world works together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Looks incredible IMO....keyword LOOKS. All Kojima games do, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBURGE Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I had this game pre-ordered from I think 2017 E3 for 40% off, but cancelled it when I saw the first trailer. I do not do well with horror games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It's hard to distrust Kojima, the guy's been putting out A+++ titles since forever. The cast is terrific, and the game trailer looks amazing. Still, that's one heckuva LSD-fuelled trip trying to follow any logical sequence. Then again, it's probably part of Kojima's game storyboard to be all over the place initially. As always, in the end, it will come down to whether the gameplay and story can hook players in. The trend away from single-story based games is definitely here, you need something special to grab the gamer audience nowadays. I'm looking forward to this, hope it can deliver on the pedigree and the promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawgX Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 There's not many games that are day one purchases for me, but this one very well may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 So what's the expectation of what type of game this is? Not story, but is this going to be a Mass Effect type RPG, or just a linear type action game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncofan Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Man, the reviews on this are mega-disappointing. Visually insane, a mind-bending story......but the gameplay slow as molasses, and reduces you to doing fetch quests, outside of the occasional boss battles. So bummed. Kojima hasn't whiffed in a long time, but here I think there was too much LSD in his coffee when he came up with the idea on this one.

I mean they aren't "fetch quests" they're deliveries, combat is not the optimal solution because it's not what the game is about. The positive reviews are all about how it's meant to be slow, deliberate, and calming. It's a departure from most AAA games and something Kojima has wanted to do for a while.

Sure, but for any game like that to succeed - there has to be variety. The biggest damning criticism is that the gameplay is so repetitive. Slow and deliberate is a matter of taste, but repetitive gameplay for that long is an issue. I say that as someone who had nothing but love for his MG series, and who has no problem (well I actually do have a problem, but I'll make the time) pouring in 50-100 hours on an AAA title (BOTW, FF good games, Chrono Trigger, etc.), or playing even just a story-driven game with my kids (To The Moon on PC prime example #1). We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter2_1 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Intrigued. The idea of the game bores the tats off me, but there's still something encapsulating with it. Maybe it's the awesome scenery, the futuristic tech, the sound, or the mystery of it all. ....we'll see. Will be polarizing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 I'll wait for it to be a free PS Plus game in a year. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesehawk Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Like most, I was super intrigued by this, but at this point it looks like nothing more than a device to put me to sleep. I'll watch some playthroughs on YouTube, but no way in hell am I investing 40+ hours of my life into this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that so many good titles are coming out soon that this will have to compete with is a challenge for it as well. I have a feeling this is a YT walkthrough watch for me. The cinematics look excellent and the story is very interesting but the game play I've seen just isn't doing it for me. I'll be watching people on Twitch though and see what it's all about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
