I think how you feel about this game will entirely depend on how you feel about developer Sucker Punch. Did you like the original Sly Cooper trilogy? Did you like the Infamous trilogy? Depending on your answers to those two questions, you can probably safely assume what you'll be getting here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never played the Sly Cooper games, but I did like the Infamous games. Trust me I'm aware of Smucker Punch's pedigree, there's just this feeling that I'm having. Not sure why, but I hope it's a wrong feeling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I hated Killzone but loved Horizon Zero Dawn so I don’t know if you can truly draw conclusions from past work unless the creative director is the same across all series. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaysWho? Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 I liked Infamous a lot, but putting that aside, I see nothing that makes me nervous. When it came to Horizon, I was told, "Killzone so it's not gonna be good." Naughty Dog didn't do anything I was enamored with (as much fun as Crash was) until Uncharted/Last of Us. Santa Monica had low morale for much of the 2010s after GOW: Ascension and some here hyped the layoffs there to the moon. I loved, absolutely loved, Days Gone even though I was told it can't be good because Sony Bend or something. And I was also told that Death Stranding was just going to be walking, and it ended up being a captivating and amazingly unique experience, one of the most unique I've played in quite some time. Tsushima looks like an ambitious, beautiful game, and I hope it delivers. Sucker Punch is a talented studio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I also wasn’t really a fan of anything Naughty Dog did before Uncharted. Hell watch The Last of Us 2 trailer and the whole team keep reminding yourself that this from the Crash Bandicoot developers haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concern trolls, mostly. But basically, despite good hands-on impressions and a great looking world, Killzone, therefore probably not that good.

Greatoneshere Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 14 hours ago, Keyser_Soze said: Yes No What am I getting here? My post was more in terms of gameplay - people are worried the gameplay in this is more like the Batman Arkham games. Sly Cooper and Infamous might be different types of games, but the underlying core of both are platforming, etc. Expect something similar here is what I mean in terms of gameplay. Unless Sucker Punch suddenly makes a different game than their entire gameography has been to this point, we're gonna get more platforming, fast action ala Batman Arkham, etc. Don't expect a Soulsborne type game I imagine. 3 hours ago, ManUtdRedDevils said: I hated Killzone but loved Horizon Zero Dawn so I don’t know if you can truly draw conclusions from past work unless the creative director is the same across all series. Killzone is a unique example because it's pretty clear Guerrilla Games never intended to make so many of those. And as someone who played all of the Killzone games, there's lots of Killzone's DNA in Horizon, just as there is a ton of MGS5 in Death Stranding. The same will be the case here.

ShreddieMercury Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 The concept of this game is right up my alley and I'm excited to play it, but I also have a nagging feeling that it may just be more of the same. I'll reserve judgement until I can see it in action and hear about how it plays, but I think I'm just mostly done with open-world games unless they can adjust the formula. I tried to play HZD and found it really boring. If this has a really cool pitch I'm interested, but if it's open-world with a skill-tree I think I'm out.

Bloodporne Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 All jokes and fears of terrible A-For-Awesome combat aside, I'm actually genuinely excited to see more of this game tomorrow. The prospect of essentially a big, epic Kurosawa game is really enticing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsolutSurgen Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 The previous gameplay demo sure looked like “Batman-style” stealth and combo stringing to me. I didn’t see anything block heavy (nor did I see much in the way of platforming). I’m looking forward to seeing more of GoT, because I don’t think I’ve seen enough to form any sort of informed opinion about this one yet.

Brick Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 What I figured. Would be me surprised if it didn't. Hopefully the Japanese acting isn't over the top like in anime or JRPGs. I would think this being as more grounded game it wouldn't be, and the acting would be something like from a Kurosawa film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skillzdadirecta Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Gameplay looks solid and I'm certain that's very early in the game. Between The Last of US 2 and this, my PS4 is gonna get a lot of play this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firewithin Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 the only thing that stood out that i probably wouldnt like very much is the the different stances for combat (if i saw correctly). that was the biggest turn off for me with nioh. everything else looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 The soundtrack and the atmosphere are top notch. Gameplay was what I expected. I think stance switching makes things interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
