Why would you make a 007 game, but not make it resemble the books or movies?
>>737655890Oddjob
>>737655890Weirdwork
>>737655890There was zero chance IOI were going to pull this off, and I liked nu-Hitman.
Only faggots think this game will be bad. It looks awesome.
>>737655890subverting expecations
>>737655890It looks cool though.
>>737656691it's Hitman but with wacky gadgets. Where is the 007 part?
>>737655890because current year sensibilities
>>737656841>wacky gadgetsRight there
Hubris.
>>737655890THE MESSAGE!Go away now.
>>737656841>It's HitmanYes, it's a IOI game.>wacky gadgetsDo you even know about James Bond?
>>737655890Umm sweaty, don't you know that um like James Bond was like um really problematic back then. If we like don't update it for modern audience some person might get triggered by his like misogynistic behavior.
>>737657130We already know from gameplay trailers that literally every female character (that we've seen so far) wants James to bang them though.
I just can't buy into the concept of a millennial or gen Z James Bond. Gen X James Bond was already stretching it, this character is too linked to the cold war and men of that era.
>>737655890genuinely hate this faggot's disney-fied face
>>737655890What? This is his origin story, he's young in the sequels he will look like pic related.
>>737655890It looks like pure kino
>>737657130@grok translate this guy's post from faggotspeak to English
>>737656691Looks like hitman with more training wheels>Press X to not get caught>also here's 1000 gadgets, press Y to not get caught
>>737655890To be honest, this dude is a very accurate portrayal of Ian Fleming's bond (unbelievable, I know). The problem with this game is the black and pajeet washing and somewhat stale Hitman gameplay. Maybe the story be good enough to carry the game, but I seriously doubt it.
>>737657205Bond movies are a lot cartoonier than people remember, the actors' serious faces just sell it so well that people forget that this should probably not be a super serious or realistic franchise.It's also such a product of its time that it wouldn't really work if you just copied the old thing over anymore. You either get a zoomer Bond who's also a reflection of the time (whether in good or bad), or you get nothing at all.NEW THING BAD etc. but you also never get anything good to care about in the first place unless you try something, and I think I'd rather see them try. Shitty forgotten reboots are a dime dozen.
>>737657458Pajeeta M is cute and defends Bond from grumpy black man. (One of them is going to be a traitor by the way. I'm sure. Hopefully it's Lennie James.)Black Moneypenny is cute and obviously wants James inside her but playing hard to get.Also Lenny Kravitz as some African warlord or something. Don't know about that one but I've always been okay with him.
>>737657458>To be honest, this dude is a very accurate portrayal of Ian Fleming's bondThe only thing similar to the Fleming's Bond is the cheek scar. Everything else is far off. The books are humorless, unlike movie-Bond.
>>737655890they already made 007 movies that don't resemble the movies with most of the Daniel Craig ones
>>737657861>You either get a zoomer Bond who's also a reflection of the time (whether in good or bad), or you get nothing at all.No, you simply set the game, and movies, back in the 60s where they belong, with a 30-40 year old that actually looks weathered and mature. Just because it's 2026, it doesn't mean that has to be the fucking setting
>>737657861>>737658027Can the two of you lovebirds please stop pressing the [enter] key after every fucking sentence?
>>737657861Lets not forget that Austin powers was made in response to how silly bond films were getting.
>>737655890his accent is all wrong, he sounds like a commoner
>>737655890He looks very lewdable.
>>737658027This is the key issue for me. As much as I adore Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies, Bond should be set in the depths of the Cold War. Modern settings are boring.
I liked the nu-hitman games a lot but I got burned out with Freelancer, and slapping a bond coat of paint on it doesn't make me want to play it again. It looks too similaralso I fucking hate IOI and don't want to give them money ever again
>Bond meets a 3/10>"Glad to be working with such a powerful woman"I kid, but this would be better than what we will actually get, which is fucking nothing. A bond that doesn't fucking flirt. It's like a joke with no punchline.
>>737657458I hate woke shit, but moneypenny is cute as fuck, she gets a pass from me. Im more annoyed by the bond girl, Miss Roth, being so fucking mid.
>>737658320>in response to how silly bond films were getting>were gettingIt kinda always started as silly, not just with the wacky technology but the quippy, slapstick-y humor interspersed in the otherwise seemingly serious cold war spy setting.Not saying those are bad, Austin Powers doesn't just parody it to make fun of it but because those tropes are entertaining.But I think there's some kneejerk reaction to whatever new Bond would ever be just because it's gonna be a little goofier than the Daniel Craig era movies have left people thinking about the franchise. Game is genuinely a better avenue than a movie right now for trying this.
>>737658738Moneypenny is very cute.>Im more annoyed by the bond girl, Miss Roth, being so fucking mid.Agreed. She looks like a goblin. I sure hope that's just some unflattering work-in-progress render or something.
>>737658320I didn't know they started making Austin Powers during the height of the Roger Moore era?
