What's the alternative, playing a character sitting in the duck and cover position in a trench for a few hours while mortars rain down? If I want a realistic depiction I'll read a book or watch a documentary. Besides, the very first mission of the game addresses this in a pretty cool way.

Currently playing Battlefield 1 and Dishonored 2, both of which are really fun. Having finished Dishonored and all the DLC the night before I started playing the sequel, I am really impressed with all of the ways it improves upon the original while still feeling like Dishonored. And as a long time BF fan I really feel like Battlefield 1 is a return to form of sorts. Maybe I just like those games better when there aren't modern weapons.

For Christmas I'll ask for Final Fantasy XV and The Last Guardian. It's been a long time since I've been interested in a FF or Team Ico game. That dose of nostalgia should make for a good Christmas present game.

@frostyryan: Agreed. Some people think that can be improved upon, while others think it is an infallible and irreproachable choice. To each their own.

@frostyryan: The story isn't supposed to be implemented? According to whom? The whole disagreement between us is you immediately forgive this while I see it as an area to improve upon. But no one can argue that the story is implemented into the game in any meaningful way.

@frostyryan: The fact that there are numerous posts just like this across the internet with people wondering where the story even comes from is proof enough that it's not implemented into the game well. I actually think the lore itself is pretty cool. But the way it is implemented into the game is in fact lazy, because it is just not in the game at all. The animated shorts and comics you speak of aren't even in the game!

Any time the user has to go to resources outside of the game to get information about core concepts of said game, the developers have failed to some degree.

For as great as the game is, the implementation of the narrative is some of the laziest I've ever seen. It's not really in the game at all, and I think the reason is exactly what you mentioned; they have to dance around the whole "Why are friends fighting each other?" idea. Their solution seems to be just don't put any story in the game at all. It's a half step, they tried to dip their toes in with little throw away lines between certain characters and all the stuff they have outside the game and scattered across the internet.

I'm hype, been playing the PS4 definitive edition to prepare. Beat the game and Knife of Dunwall, just have to run through the Brigmore Witches before Friday. Speaking of which...that DLC for the first game is pretty damn good.

This minute long trailer has lots of people jumping to some unfounded conclusions. The video is obviously aimed at the mass market and not the existing fans of the series. And why wouldn't it be; the existing fans are already on board for the most part. Besides, as someone who enjoys the action and the lore of the series it is the former than needs the most help in my opinion. Regardless, I can't wait to see more.

Mother fucking Banshee.

If you like how action movies used to be in the 90s, Banshee is the show for you. It is fucking awesome!

It's odd seeing so many outraged by something that doesn't even register to me as something to be even mildly annoyed about. You guys should know by now that the pre-order content in games is never really any good, so you aren't missing out if you decide not to do it. And as for the people no longer buying the game in protest? Just seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face to me.
