Thoughts? Apparently the staff is working mandatory overtime.
Was mildly interested until they showed the robot design and "gameplay" tease, and the fact that it apparently takes place on one planet.
Gotta see the melee combat to know what to think really, if you told me Remedy was making a melee-based Control I would have initially thought it would be shit but the trailer atleast looks good.
I genuinely do not care. No interest whatsoever in the game.
>>729113027need to see more than pre-rendered fake gameplay honestly.
>>729113027don't really care that title is the most generic thing ever and sounds like a fake name that would be in a tv show or something
>>729113027I'll pretend like it won't be canceled (it will) and humor you. Not-star wars with an Akira coat of paint with donk snouls gameplay in a movie game is so retarded you'd think it was a single sentence chatgpt prompt.>Gromk uhhhh make video game that sells goodI'm not even addressing the 'casting,' which is an absurd idea in and of itself for a video game, or the turbo-DEI infused in every line of its code. Do you see why it will inevitably be canceled now?
mildly interested. protag is ugly and annoying but space is cool and they have good taste in goofy anime.expect it will have the Returnal problem where the game might be fun but the protagonist will turn away any potential buyers.
won't play a game with a bald brown ugly woman for MC
already crunching at this phase in development (still over a year and a half away from release at least) just screams gross mismanagement behind the scenesmaybe letting druckmann run off to play in hollywood while overseeing the game at the same time was a bad idea
>>729113684it unfortunately won't be canceled and will probably get a GOTY nomination instead
>>729113027That title sounds extremely generic
>>729113027Wasn't interested but now I know there's slave labor i will be buying
INTERGALATIC PLANETARYPLANETARY INTERGALATIC
>>729113027>Apparently the staff is working mandatory overtimeWe already had this "discussion". Now watch as the thread derails into politics because 85% of this board has nothing else to discuss.
>>729113105>it apparently takes place on one planet.how the fuck is it intergalactic then lmao
>>729114117Another dimension, another dimensionAnother dimension, another dimensionAnother dimension, another dimensionAnother dimension, another dimensionWell, now, don't you tell me to smileYou stick around, I'll make it worth your whileGot numbers beyond what you can dialMaybe it's because I'm so versatile
>>729114261based
>>729113027WE'RE NOT GONNA PLAY ITNO WE'RE NOT GONNA PLAY ITWE'RE NOT GONNA PLAY SHITANYMOREEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>729113027don't really care for it at all. i believe they're stuck making a long development cycle moviegame in a time when the zeitgeist is shifting away from that. it will be like prime 4: ancient design with little to no innovation that may have been received well if it released sooner, but people had already moved on from its design by the time it released.
>>729113027i remember doomposting in the pre-E33 release threads and getting everyone to hate the game.https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/697904406/This game has nearly universal hatred, so i dont even have to try. lol
>>729113027A Jew is overworking his goyim? Who could’ve seen that happening?
>>729113027Not planning to play the game, but I'm excited for the memes.
>>729113027This game will break us.
The fuck is "mandatory overtime"?
>>729115273Stay beyond your contracted working hours or you're fired. Not complicated, anon
>>729113027Can't wait for another pissed off employee to leak the dumbest parts of the plot and kneecap it again.
Yeah that's a day 1 review bomb from me
>>729115273In the 90s, it was called Crunch
I only play games with anime graphics. So sick of normalfags and their realism slop killing games.
>>729113027The staff had mandatory overtime for TLoU2. That was still shit.
>>729115273Industries that have irregular production cycles tend to require employees work overtime during stressfull periods, since hiring and training more workers that will do nothing/get fired during the calmer periods is inefficient.Given this game isn't even slated to be out next year, starting mandatory overtime this early is a sign of absolutely horrendous management.
>>729115273Mandatory overtime is illegal and the article was stupid clickbait but certain wagie jobs will find excuses to fire you if you don't opt in for overtime. I am willing to bet that the sort of LA clique company that stuffs itself with protected class diversity hires does not engage in shady business practices like that however. They probably have an in office snack bar and twisty slide from the top landing.
>>729113027Will only play once all of the shitskins can be modded out and replaced with qts
>>729113027Pure and utter indifference. I will reevaluate my desire to interact with it after it releases.
>>729113027That terrible name and the character anti-marketted me. They didn't want me to buy it. Their audience (whoever that is) will buy it.
Not my problem
>>729113027I don´t think anyone really cares about this game. And i say it as a nostalgic retro futurism lover.
>>729113027>Thoughts?Don't care. >Apparently the staff is working mandatory overtime.Don't care. NEXT THREAD.
>>729115273crunch
>what if we took Akira and made it gay and retarded?BRAVO KEKMAN
>>729115481The sequel to Abby edits...
>>729115481Kek, high chance of it happening>>729117230The golden days...
Im not sold on this game solely because the protag is really ugly.
>>729117121>Akira>gay and retardedPick two
>Game revealed in 2023>Release date: 2028Why do games do this? No one is going to stay hyped for 5 straight years.
>>729118695Tell that to Todd's snapped neck

For those that don't work in the industry, what overtime basically means is that the whole team has no idea what's going on.>What's going on?>I don't know but we need to get this section done>But no one's answering Slack messages, no one knows what's going on>I know but->We're still waiting on the level designers and artists to do a pass>Sure, sure->What are we even doing in overtime>We're getting it done>Getting what done>I don't knowThis is no joke, how conversations in studios go when crunch is announced. There is no vision, it's people scrambling.Crunch works in 1999 when it's you and 25 other dudes, but not in a studio of 500 people and 4 contractor companies in Malaysia.
>>729113027Yeah? I hope they work themselves to death and get to see how shit their game does at release from the afterlife
>>729113027Not too interested in this, figured it'd be cancelled by now? The guy behind it made one good game and then proved he shouldn't be in charge of anything, with the sequel.If it comes out, and a year later reviews say its good, maybe I'll get it, but its not on my radar whatsoever.
>>729113027I hope it fails. God the protag is ugly.
What can this be gameplay-wise other than Dark Souls-lite combat and walking & talking sections?
