  1. I think that's the Ryu Hyabusa suit from Ninja Gaiden. This is a game that I can see myself beating and then replaying with a different build and making different choices. They apparently affect the outcome of the game... I think I'm gonna go anti Shogunate on this first playthrough yes.
  2. Damn somebody made their character based on Himura Kenshin... wished I thought of that! I based my character on Miyamoto Musashi from Vagabond. Should have just said fuck it and based him on Afro Samurai or Yasuke. This guy went full on Ninja with his build I love how deep the gameplay is and how you can play the game in a variety of different ways. Skill ceiling is high but not as high as you'd think being a Team Ninja game.
  3. The game would have been the debut of the Nemesis system and eventually became Shadow of Mordor Gameplay for Canceled ‘Nolanverse’ Batman Game That Became Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor Unearthed - IGN WWW.IGN.COM Gameplay and images for the canceled ‘Nolanverse’ Batman game that was once in development at Monolith Productions have emerged online. Batman game with the Nemesis system would have been awesome.
  4. Jonathan Nolan Is Ready to Unleash ‘Fallout’ and Finish ‘Westworld’ WWW.HOLLYWOODREPORTER.COM The writer-director-producer on his upcoming Amazon sci-fi series, how he wants to go back to 'Westworld' and the lessons of Peak TV: "If the lesson was to ease back on complexity or weirdness, I don't want to learn that lesson." I can't imagine he would have a hard time getting a streamer to pony up the dough to finish the series with a limited series or movie as long as WB/Discovery let's them.
  5. because it feels longer than it actually is and is uncomfortable as HELL to sit through.
  6. I refuse to believe that the same two filmmakers who took every opportunity to "sell out" and exploit their first major Hollywood Blockbuster success with comic books, videogames, animes and every tie in under the sun (which they were both intimately involved in) "DELIBERATELY" made bad movies to teach the audience some kind of lesson especially when those same two filmmakers have not only failed to repeat the success of that first movie with every subsequent film they've made. And the difference between The Last Jedi and The Last of Us part 2 is that those works are devisive because they subverted audience expectations but were in and of themselves, well made and well crafted despite the creative and narrative choices they took. You CANNOT say that about ANY of the Matrix sequels. Outside of a few action set pieces, which apparently the Wachowskis now find distasteful, The two Matrix films after the original are overly long, self indulgent dreck that get even worse upon repeated viewings. The fourth movie is even worse because it has literally NOTHING redeeming going for it and is best forgotten that it even exists. And it's interesting to me that The Wachowskis on one hand don't seem to want anything to do with the property anymore but ONE of them is on board as an executive producer on this Sequel/reboot or whatever it's going to be. No one is forcing them to be involved in any capacity which is obvious because one of them isn't involved apparently. Lastly comparing every film under the sun to Marvel/DC is weak for the simple reason that those movies aren't trying to be anything other than what they are. Popcorn entertainment. Whether or not they succeed is in the eye of the beholder, but what those movies DON'T try to be is pretentious arthouse sci-fi epics that pretend to be deeper than what they really are. the original Matrix was a great movie... a sci-fi classic in fact and I get that it came out at a time when a lot of us were of an age where we were starting to question certain things about reality and society and it was in fact, The Star Wars of its generation. But unlike Star Wars, the first film was the best one in the franchise and as it turns out... seems to be the anomaly which is weird. The Wachowski's are what, 2 and 5 with The Matrix franchise? Counting the Animatrix and the two videogames? Not a great track record.
  7. The only thing I agree with here is the The Matrix Ressurections was a giant fuck you to the audience. That movie was trash deliberately or otherwise.... the fact that EVERY MAtrix movie after the first one was mediocre to bad lends some credence to the urban legend that The Wachowskis stole the first movie from someone and were later sued and the case was settled out of court. This has been disproven of course, but there's The first movie WAAAAAY up here, then The Animatrix and THEN everything else after that. If they are going to keep the franchise going, new blood is needed and Drew Godard is a solid choice. Hopefully he starts with a blank slate. Plenty of other stories to tell in this universe.
  8. Finally getting the hang of the combat in this and Hit level 10 tonight. Having a blast wandering the countryside killing bandits and getting into fights. I haven't advanced the story yet because I'm still trying to figure out which side I want to pick, pro or anti-shogunate. I'm finally at a point in the story where I have to pick a side.
  9. I hope the final game moves a little faster than this but otherwise I'm in. Seems like the perfect evolution of the Max Payne-esque third person action shooter.
  10. Written and directed by Cabin in The Woods writer Drew Goddard and Executive Produced by Lana Wachowski. New ‘Matrix’ Movie In The Works At Warner Bros From Drew Goddard DEADLINE.COM 'The Matrix' New Movie to be Directed, Written by Drew Goddard Hopefully it's an entirey new take with new characters and stars.
  11. Just play the game in whatever way you find enjoyable. There's no wrong way to play it... except whatever the hell @BloodyHell was doing
  12. So the way I did that quest was in this order; I did all of that without a guide... it helps once you discover there's a back way into the prison that opens out into the slums. Stealth is pretty bad in this though. It works pretty much by line of sight which is fine, but there's no crouch walk or sneaking animation so you can give yourself away just by unintentionally moving too fast. If they were going to have stealth missions they should have included that functionality.
  13. Me neither. Pretty sure I'm playing graphics mode... I have TV that supports VRR though. I notice some frame rate dips but nothing too dramatic. What I really notice are people a teleporting into view out of thin air when I'm running through town. That's distracting.
  14. I got to the town right before you cross the border last night Still haven't crossed yet. Got a couple of quests there I want to do first.
  15. Like I said earlier, I never played Monster Hunter and only tried that series after playing Dragon's Dogma and didn't really like it. But yeah, once you start playing the game the way it's meant to be played and not like a whole different game in the genre, you'll get the hang of it. It ain't that deep. You don't even really have to "aim" at an enemy. The character will always attack the closest thing to them unless you move in a different direction. It's pretty simple.
  16. What's weird is you're somehow playing a different game than everybody else here. I mean you're the one person asking for a lock on button but also complaining about attacks passing through enemies... maybe it ain't the game. Maybe it's YOU. I'm not saying the game is perfect, but honestly to me a lot of the "problems" I see people are having with this game is that it's literally doing it's own thing when it comes to mechanics that a lot of people aren't used to because they want and are trying to play this game like OTHER games in the genre which it does not do. What's a little annoying for me, is that there were PLENTY of videos that said this before the game came out, the first game did a lot of the same things this one is doing and was nowhere near as well recieved (some of the folks raving about this game in this topic were some of the biggest detractors of the first game) and some of the questions and confusion that people have in this game, are answered by the game itself. All it requires paying attention and or reading the in game Enyclopedia. I come into this topic wanting to discuss the game and no offense to anybody, I see a bunch of dumb assed questions and comments and I roll my eyes and go back to playing the game. I've even posted videos to try and help folks out that are struggling... nope "I'd rather complain and make reductive comments about PS3 graphics or whatever" and people wonder why activity on this board is dwindling...Sigh. Post what what you want bro, and I promise this will be the last time I comment on one of your posts regarding this game. I have no idea what game you're playing or why you'r having such a different experience than most everybody else but I'd suggest, taking a break and playing something or or just putting the game down. Why suffer through soemthing you're clearly not enjoying? it ain't fun for you or anybody else. Anyway, back to the game... has anyone figured out if you can share pawns across platforms?
  17. I killed one drake but that was with the help of pretty much a whole town. The second drake I fought ran off once we got one of it's health chunks down.
  18. Damn then you sure got got buying such a terrible game with terrible controls the majority of players playing it don't seem to have a problem with. If i were you I'd try to get my money back. There's some control tweaks here for people with ten thumbs or something.
