I was back on forth on this game. Alex's review swung me to give it try. I am not a fan of westerns but seems to be setting a new standard in open world. Looking forward to it.
Much appreciated them doing this. Think I am going to wait a while for PSVR. Cancelled my preorder only because there are plenty of good titles coming out and the VR stuff seems like it needs a little more time to bake. Not feeling like being in the bow wave this time.
Wish when it's just the smaller group you would use a smaller table so drew is closer versus like he is in another room, it's kind of odd watching you turn your head to go look for him on the other side of the room. But I am guessing the table is one size and can't be split. I liked how the had the wheels of steel operator was at the table with the 1up team back in the day or more like the old radio setup of the old G4 Feedback video podcast. Any way still nice to have a video version.
Just wondering if sometimes a loot shooter is just a loot shooter. Does diablo have a life message, DOTA, etc ? I think the story framework is there because they at least knew they needed some kind of campaign and set up a world of sorts. It last a few quick hours. The majority of the game is just collecting the next weapon, gear or jacket. Its simply BSing with friends as you compete with other people. Kind of an arcade thing. Doubting most players or UBISOFT care that much about the story or politics of this world. Its just a wild world. UBI just wants to keep people in their quest for loot and not go back to Destiny, another game with the same goal. May want to address this in a different game, not sure it applies to this one.
I look forward to hearing all of you tell me how amazing it is. Can't wait to see a game that I really want to play and willing to invest that kind of money. Till then I will live vicariously thru you early adopters.
They put in a campaign then I will give it a shot. My complaint last time was it was multiplayer only which does not interest me. I play halo,battlefield,cod,etc just for the campaign. So I can now add this to my list. Looking forward to some mech action!
