Science fiction vs High Fantasy. I like DS1, I like DD (haven't played 2 yet), not going to pre-order shit for obvious reasons, but certainly am keeping an eye on both of them. Who's going to win, anons? Kojima apparently normie the fuck out of DS2 and CD looks very appealing if you are into fantasy and combat (possibly even saving DD2 fans who were left disappointed).
crimson looks like slop
>>733357810Pic related makes it looks like a fucking scam lmaoI don't care. If it is just a little better than DD2, then it's fair after one or two sales
>>733357932Why does that make it seem like a scam, I don't get it. It's just a list of things you can do?
>>733357967Because it lists so much; "Super cool stuff that sounds amazing" and when something sounds too grand to be true it is very likely completely hollow.Add to that this game being made by Koreans who are notorious for doing exactly that; all flair and no substance. This game won't be even 10% of what they've hyped up.
>>733357967This >>733358062. So far they haven't showed any of that in their trailers. If they go public promising any of that stuff (which seems fake as fuck, too complex and too good to be true), you can bet the game will end up like a huge disappointment
>Korean slopPass>Death Stranding 2Will wait for a cheap sale or it landing on Humble. Still need to finish the first one.
>>733358062The other thread from an hour ago had like 10 webm showing tons of stuff you can do including numerous crazy mechanics
>>733358128>Still need to finish the first one.Take your time to finish the first game. The tone of the second one is quite the stark contrast which much of the horror removed.
>>733357731chink slop vs kojima slop
DS2 starts off way better than DS1, they give you an upgraded exoskelton within like 2 hours which almost doubles your sprint speed and just 30-40 mins later you get your first vehicleThe combat is also basically MGS5, there are shitloads of non-lethal guns
>>733358062Is this going to be another Korean "Black desert" style item mall / gacha pull MMO, or like another "do everything" game like Where Winds Meet or whatever the fuck the Chinese thing was called? The biggest concern is the kind of monetization. Death Stranding 2 is another full game.There's no gacha banner rolling for hundreds of dollars to get a fancy costume or having to pay a fortune to get white hair etc.
>>733357731Dimson cresert is my current most looked forward to game, I don't care about DS2 since 1 really fell flat for me (still finished it though) and everything I've seen and heard points to 2 being a somewhat more refined version of more of the same.If Crimson Diddler is bad then I don't think I have any games I'm looking forward to for the entire rest of the year after that except the forbidden one
>>733358290It would have taken you ten seconds of googling to find out it's a full price single player game
>>733358290>kind of monetizationAt least according to Steam is just single player, but I will never trust Koreans not to be greedy fuckers, especially for a game this fucking big
>>733358179My only worry with getting back to the game is the online playerbase will be dead I had it on PS4, thus I'll be stuck having to spend even more time gathering resources to build my roads out further.
>>733358403>that except the forbidden onekek ain't that the truth
>>733358434as >>733358439says this wouldn't be the first time that, especially for global release, some KR/CN game is given a full price title yet still has a bunch of 'optional' content with shitty monetization. I forget the name of that one that they launched as a buy-to-play setup including all the content for the global release that had been added in Korea since its launch, but then all the new stuff still was item mall and lootbox/gacha pull style with future updates.
>>733358462I'm sure KojiPro has a way to deal with that by "hardcoding" the level of construction to a certain ballpark, just by maintain structures from certain players even if they are offline. They have it all on their servers anyway. It wouldn't be a problem at all. I would worry much more if they gave notice that they were deactivating their servers, now that's a problem.
>>733358607That's a bold suspicion, anon. Let's see if it pays off for you.
Definitely buying DS2 first, i liked the first game and am pretty hyped and shocked that it comes so soon. Crimson Desert looks ok but i'll wait until /v/ and the normies beta test it.
Everyone will be playing Marathon. No one cares for this slop.
>>733357731/v/ is a pro-kojima board
>>733357731>slop fantasy vs. kino fictionjee thats a hard choice
>>733359183>>733359382Can't wait for her animations.
ENTER
>>733359592Do you actually slay the spire in this game?
>>733357731>huge fight>implying anyone cares about Kojimaslop
>>733358141All I can tell you is that this isn't the first time I see a Korean game releasing snippets that look super cool and then when the actual game is out everything around these snippets are shallow as a puddle.This is literally how they snare their customers.
>>733359581imagine
>>733357731Nobody gives a shit about Kekjima's movie games.
>>733359810For me it was Rainy, but I'm looking forward to her a lot too. Rainy/Shioli is absolutely unbelievable
>>733359183DS2 seems to be quite comfy. That game has that going on, at least.
>>733359870different flavors of icecream
>>733359946Kojima is so fucking based...
>>733357731I genuinely thought Death Stranding 2 released on PC last year.
>>733360000nice quadsand very true
>>733360000>those quadsMust respect the 'jima now
>>733357932>>733358062>sounds too grand to be trueMany of the things on that list can be found in decades old games. Not very grand, just the kinds of things that might impress someone who barely plays video games. Still have to see if the game is good because to me those are just bonuses.
>>733357731DS2 was too embarrassing even for me and I kinda liked DS1 for the novelty. I think Kojima is an actual retard.
>>733360053They had an exclusivity contract with Sony because the game was heavily funded by them. Same thing for DS2, or perhaps even more now that it is also published by them.
hey guys wanna hear a joke?>Death Stranding... 2hahahahah
>>733360068Based
>>733357932I don't know much about it, but wasn't the game supposed to be an mmo?clearly the best thing about mmos is when there's tons of npcs doing stuff around, instead of have a world full of real living players lmao
>>733360676>but wasn't the game supposed to be an mmo?No. It is supposed to be a single player since inception. The mmo is Black Desert online, published by the same company, Pearl Abyss. Just don't stop noticing that they are Koreans.
>>733360676That's Black Desert
"huge fight"
>>733364915but anon that is cringekino of the higher tieronly kojima can deliveryou will never see anything even remotely like that once he's goneappreciate!
Shit vs poop
>>733365398
>>733357731>two shit gamesok
>>733357932it's the disconnet from what they shown and what they are trying to sell yousmells like slop
>>733368425Wouldn't be the first game, won't be the last. And so it goes.
>>733357731Everyone in Korea will be forced to buy Crimson Desert. Death Stranding 2 won't sell as well. Still, that says nothing about which was better.
>>733357731I won't be playing either.
>>733357731DD as in Dragon's Dogma? What does it have to do with either of thoseAnyways I'm getting DS2
>>733368884>What does it have to do with either of thoseSome anons believe CD is an unplanned spiritual successor to Dragon's Dogma 2.
>>733369129>some anonsyou mean the shills
>>733369340Could be. I wouldn't put my hand on fire saying they aren't here, but the game seems legitimately well made. It reflects pretty poor on them to use a place like 4chan to chill the game. I guess you never know
>>733358248I've heard people say DS2 is too easy, I fucking hope not. DS1 is easy enough. I don't much feel like gimping myself intentionally
>>733369771>I've heard people say DS2 is too easy, I fucking hope not.It is. Not only BTs, but map transversal, too. I read that a hundred times already. I doubt they are wrong. I'm doing all of my initial deliveries on foot. Fuck that shit. >DS1 is easy enough.I guess you could say that, but I had hard times with a few sections, especially in those snowy mountains. Situation was miserable. Never felt it was unfair, though.
>>733357731You can tell if someone is new to video games based on how excited they are for crimson desert. They clearly have not seen the infinite amount of korean games that are the core definition of style over substance. Khazan was like one of the only times a korean dev has made combat feel like it had some weight to it and it's still kinda light feeling.The only nice thing is the game isn't free to play so even at $70 you're spending less to access and be able to complete all the content in the game.
lmao, its hilarious to think this was what, the 10th or 11th exclusive ps5 got in 5 years and its not even gonna be exclusive anymore
>>733372396I mean it's not like outright said that's their strategy, to eventually have their games on PC
>>733375492oh sure. just baffling people bought any ps5's knowing that.
