Is this worth playing? I've heard it referred to as one of the greatest games of all time. How much truth is there to that statement?
It is, as the zoomies say, mid
>>739336860It's a really fun game with great setting, story and characters, nice music and good grafix for its time definitely worth your time
>>739336860It's good. And it's also very short. So don't worry about taking on some new 60 hour journey. Just play it. It'll be over all too soon.
>>739336860It's great. Wish there were more games like this.
>>739336860>I've heard it referred to as one of the greatest games of all time.It's good but not THAT good. It's just a 3D Zelda-like and a pretty competent one. If Ubisoft could have just made a straight sequel in the same style the series would be a cult favorite instead of a Duke Nukem Forever style "cursed development" meme.
>>739337354What even happened to the sequel? It was announced like 10 years ago at e3 and never referenced again.
>>739336860It's okay. Some music from the soundtrack is a banger, but the actual gameplay is dated with a early 2000's mindset.At least it's pretty short so you won't get too bored.
>>739336860Yeah it's pretty good. I go back and replay it every few years. Hard carried by the presentation, but the underlying game is solid enough that you rarely notice how half-baked it all is.
>>739337523It kept going back to the drawing board because they got overly ambitious and feature-creeped to hell. All anyone wanted was to fight monsters with a baton and a pigman uncle, while taking pictures of crazy alien wildlife. And instead they tried to turn it into some globe-spanning epic where you can see the entire world from orbit and shit. Worst of all, newer trailers they released made it clear they didn't want to star Jade anymore. But she's the character everyone liked.
>>739337667It's still in development. Apparently Ubisoft are maintaining their faith in its potential success.
>>739337823I don't even want it anymore. Every time it resurfaces it looks more and more pretentious. I just want an adventure featuring a cartoonish asian woman with green lipstick, not whatever the fuck this is.
>>739337667>Worst of all trailers released made it clear they didn't want to star jade anymore I don't get this, she wasn't overly sexy coom bait, she is just a great character. Wonder why the danger hairs are against her now.
>>739336860it's a proto movie-game
>>739338095The monkey is cool, that somewhat Asian looking dude in the back with the big gun is okay. That hideous mop head black lady is everything I hate about modern gaming.
>>739337523It was announced 18 years ago
>>739338313Ubisoft got delusions of grandeur... that they can make a whole multiverse of characters people love and care about out of this about average 8 hour game with half an anthro cast and vague messages about "RESIST AUTHORITY." This is a prime victim of the era of games shooting for the mythical "modern audience" but was in development literally decades too long and missed the window where players could have been fooled into thinking it was trendy. I have no doubts the games journalists will come to bat for it when it releases, no matter how bad it is though. Since libs think they're exactly this breed of "freedom fighter" in their narcissistic headcanon.
I feel it’s a bit like Gravity Rush. It’s short but solid, has an interesting world with memorable characters, great music. But you also can tell how the story keeps leaping ahead that there were a ton of ideas left on the cutting room floor for budget and tech limits. In the end, it’s a good demo of something greater;The difference is Gravity Rush actually finished it’s kino sequel that knocks it out of the park.
>>739338846I see, I hate this gay timeline.
