    Why not, I'm just going to say what I've been thinking,

    It's a shitty game anyway. Nobody should care. Use your money elsewhere rather than buying the game.

    When a mofo trys to spoil a game for you but you've seen the leaks already.

    havent posted on here in a while but i just wanna say i beat all the uncharted games and 1 and 3 are a 6/10 at best, 2 is great, and 4 is in my top 25 easily. and i finished playing them all just in time for naughty dog's latest drama lmao

  • It doesn't matter what you think. Forming an opinion by taking pieces of advice from someone else seems way too ridiculous, especially for Naughty Dog fans like me. As someone who has been a fan since I played the first Uncharted game, it's better for me to analyse their latest game by recording my blind playthrough and share my thoughts. My expectations for the game are pretty low, just like everyone else but at least I need to see why they executed the story that way.

  • I don't know why, but I looked at my schedule for the last few days of school I have. And it made me feel emotional.

    For almost twelve whole months, I've been working my ass off while dealing with that shitty divorce. And I was a fucking jack-off, that's not to say I'm not one. But, look at me now. I've pretty much become a different person, I have a few people on this forum who pretty much turned me around. (You guys know who you are.) I remember being a pissy little brat who was always so mentally exhausted and frustrated. And, I've gotten over some of that.

    To me, it's almost like that wasn't even me.

    I've changed myself, so much. And it's not even to the point where it's scary, it's to the point where it's good. I've learned so much from then, I really have. Halfway through the year, I was put in the 'Junior National Honours society'. And, it boosted my confidence. If there was a way to get high off of confidence, I'm sure I figured it out. lol

    I know, I know; this was sorta random, just felt like sharing. As you guys have put up with me, for a long time. lol

    Anyway, cheers to a better school year for my fellow students. (And one without a fucking pandemic.)

    you in a personal players disappointed David when you didn't stand with him I also got the Caitlin goes missing ending remember anything else

    your experience with David was dysfunctional you except they were saying is that the punched you with on the night of your father don't you try to leave Richmond without Rich David in his time of need to distance yourself from David after the Cascade shot in the Birmingham from Turner

    clementines who gave up on her offer to meet join the New Frontier then you convinced able to help you after you she caught you and gave stealing guns in the end despite your not picking her to live a fat Jack's BBQ on the overpass Clement I'm heated Len guards medical advice regarding AJ can you refuse to give lingard a lethal injection after the chaos Lynn.

    you told Joan the New Frontier was to blame for Mariano's death then you brought mix to expose Joan to the Richmond Council currently Jones whereabouts are unknown click kick you out of Richmond for stealing gas then you took Clint steel in spirit Jones life finally David shot Clint on stage after you agreed to Clint's deal

  • YouTube's latest update sucks...not only. Switch the recriminations with comments but especially the comments when you click on a comment and exit out you can't scroll down a comment section you have to start over from the top comments and make your way down again.

    Which by far pisses me off I wonder then YouTube is going back too the old update because this is trash.

  • Im assuming some devs do have the engine already and due to Wolf Among Us 2 having a deal with Epic it is possible Wolf 2 will use Unreal 5. But realistically I think it will probably still use 4.

    I found a really interesting interview with Troy Baker recently about how he started up in the industry and some great career developments for him. Here's some best bits.

    "So in 2007, 2008, a guy I had never met before named Jack Fletcher told Square Enix, 'This is the guy that I want to play this new character Snow in the Final Fantasy game, and if you don't say yes, then I quit,'" Baker tells me of how he got the role of Snow in the English dub of Final Fantasy 13. "It was a power play on his part because he wanted to know that the team trusted him, but believe you me, when I walked into that session, he told me, 'Don't you fuck this up, because both of our jobs are on the line.' So all of a sudden I go from just being Soldier A or whoever, to thrust into a lead role in a triple-A franchise."

    As of late, Baker's been pursuing being on "the other side of the glass." He's directing more, after dabbling with it every now and then with anyone who "was kind enough to go, 'Hey, why don't you do this?'" He got his first shot at formally directing under Monolith Productions, as a performance capture director on Middle-earth: Shadow of War. The bonus gig, on top of him already portraying the lead, Talion, was offered by Monolith after a conversation about looking for directors. It was a teaching moment for the actor.
    "I learned then that directing something that you're the lead of is really, really hard to do," he says. "Especially when it's your first big, triple-A title. [You] probably shouldn't be the director and the lead, and they were kind enough to lovingly be patient with me through that."

    Baker's now voice directing the adventure-musical Chorus, which after a successful crowdfunding round on Fig, is in active development alongside acclaimed composer Austin Wintory (Journey, The Banner Saga) and former BioWare lead writer David Gaider, among others. Actress Laura Bailey is the lead. (The two have been co-stars many times over the years, from the upcoming Marvel's Avengers to Catherine.) Baker's background as a musician makes it a project near and dear to his heart.

    In November, Baker appeared as the villain Higgs in Metal Gear Solid director Hideo Kojima's latest project, Death Stranding. It's a game that stars more household names than maybe any other video game before it, and among them is video games' own A-list star: Troy Baker. And he was cast, pretty much, before he even knew it.
    "Hideo came to me and I think it was actually at DICE, and was like, 'I want to put you in the game.' I was like, 'Dude, I will work for you any day of the week and twice on Sunday.' And then that just kept building. Then one time we were at Comic-Con at the EW party, and I get a tap on my shoulder and [Hideo] goes, come here I want you to meet somebody. And it was Norman [Reedus]. He goes like, 'Here's your costar.' [Norman's] like, 'Oh, you're the guy they've been telling me about!' I'm like, 'What is happening right now?' And that's how I found out I was gonna be in Death Stranding."
    [...] Luckily for Baker, a seasoned pro on the mocap stage at this point, his frequent on-screen co-star Norman Reedus was down for basically anything. Even that one scene.

    "[H]e had to give me permission to do some stuff like lick his face," adds Baker. "That was the first day of shooting. I was like, 'this is going to get real awkward, real quick.' I think it was the third scene, the second scene that we shot. They were like, 'No, you're gonna actually, we need you to lick his face.' I'm like, [claps], it's mocap. You guys can do amazing things. And [Norman's] like, 'Fuck it dude, let's go for it.' He's a good dude. Really really good dude. [...] A good actor is a good actor. Whether it be on TV film or on stage or on mocap stage."
    Here's that weiiird scene in question. Troy seemed to have a really fun time playing Higgs in the game.

  • I can't believe he actually licked Norman Reedus's face! XD

    Whenever Troy's voice goes low during that scene it sounds exactly like Joel. Didn't notice the first time.

    Unreal 5 will only launch mid 2021 and it seems like they're still be working on it since development only started in 2018, so I don't think it's been made available to developers yet and if it has then possibly only to Sony since Epic is working closely with them on this.

    Interestingly enough, Fortnite seems to be the first game that will be using UE5.

  • Wolf 2 has been completely rebooted from scratch. Old Telltale was going to use Unity, New Telltale is using Unreal Engine 4, which I doubt will change, I dont think they will switch to UE5. (iirc they did say "modified UE4" which I thought was weird and could be what he was referring to UE5 but I kinda doubt that.)

    I do wonder when the game will release or start to truly begin production. Apparently AdHoc joined kinda last minute according to Erin Yvette saying AdHoc was not approached until November. (It was probably their goal to always get AdHoc but they most likely wanted to get everything in order to really show to them that "Hey we really care about making this correctly." So they'd hop on board.)

    they did say "modified UE4" which I thought was weird and could be what he was referring to UE5 but I kinda doubt that.

    There have been a number of games that use modified versions of game engines. It's usually just a version of the engine that has been upgraded/tweaked to specifically fit the kind of game they're making. Off the top of my head there's the Titanfall 1, 2 and Apex Legends which run on heavily modified versions of the Source Engine (not Source 2) which allows for better visuals, lighting and physics. Dontnod used a modified UE3 for Life is Strange which they created for their previous game, Remember Me and then a modified UE4 for Life is Strange 2 in order to get some of the effects they used in the games.

    If Adhoc are using a modified version of UE4 then maybe it's been tweaked to achieve the same kind of artstyle, lighting and gameplay the original Wolf had.

    Apparently AdHoc joined kinda last minute according to Erin Yvette saying AdHoc was not approached until November.

    Did New Telltale approach the voice case first before approaching Adhoc?

    They are going to be rereleasing/remastering the Mafia game series.

    I loved Mafia 1 when first came out and haven’t played it for years and would love to replay it with updated graphics.

  • I can't resist these fur balls

  • I wonder if they'll leave Mafia 3 untouched or not, since I've heard that M3 was (and still is) an underbaked, buggy game that really needed more time in the developer oven.

    They are remastering all three games, Mafia 2 is good too but i found the missions in Mafia 3 to be a bit repetitive.

  • Gosh, I hope they won't mess it up. Mafia 1 is one of my favourite games and most people only played Mafia 2, so it'd be sad if their only experience with the first game was a glitchy remake.

    Still, I heard some rumours that they'd only announce Mafia 2 and 3 remasters, so getting Mafia 1 as well is a nice surprise. I'm pretty excited. Those screens look great. Hopefully they won't change the soundtrack too much, I think they removed some tracks when they re-released it on Steam... Also I'd love it if they included the original Czech dub, but that's probably just wishful thinking, kek.

    Yeah that was the biggest issue I had with the game. The game looked great, had a great story, and well written characters with unbelievably good voice acting, but my God was the game extremely repetitive.

  • I just realized another highly-anticipated game this year that slipped my mind is 12 Minutes. A top-down narrative thriller about a man stuck in a time loop.

    The devs still say this thing will be out in 2020, so hopefully that happens. Their twitter page is chock full of development updates and behind-the-scenes work on the game, it's pretty impressive.
    It will be out for Xbox and PC, so I guess I'll have to pray my computer can handle it.

  • Yeah, I couldn't finish it due to the repetitiveness. (And I rarely leave games unfinished, so that's saying something) It's a shame, because I was enjoying the story.
