i absolutely love this website- I have no idea where Arcade Pit originated yet, but I imagine it's not super easy to make, but fits the format really well, and these have all been really fun
Man, I had a good time with this, it isn't gonna land with everyone, and that's fine- because a hero, needs a villain, and sometimes, that villain, is a comment section
who....is this writing style for? Nail on the head wtih the like, final fantasy Remake's insistence of having you do ploddy, confusing obligatory feeling moments so they can be considered either more substantial or 'block-buster-good', and it's just not. Things like, for the sake of having there be a game at all, and it results in sequences like the bottles thing which is like..."what". It's so call and response to restate what jeff was laughing at, because yeah this thing almost feels like a self parody...maybe that's harsh, but boy, i almost never say this, but even with a general interest in WII, this looks like it has quippy Avengers Syndrome writing and it's baaaad...in the boring bad formulaic way that tries to make a game people can access, and be brazenly confused as far it's own intentions as an accurate world war 2 depiction, and fast and the furious.
I mean, World War 2 is probably still the most important thing that has happened, in, well, the entirety of human history, as far as shaping the landscape of the early stage on which our world plays out, which is to say; a pretty big deal, that you can still make interesting. They seem to forget who they are targeting and it's just, look at those cutscene graphics, right, why did they make THIS?
No disrespect to the artists and programmers and hard workers on the project, but this feels like the mmmost rote thing I've seen from this franchise, and, while that shouldn't surprise me as it is a pretty rapid-release of em at this point, um, it feels like the game itself doesn't care. I see this and think, well, this ain't the one that's gonna bring me back, I just wonder who they thought that would be.
Maybe, it's still me, at the end. Final Fantasy 13 notoriously took notes from modern warfare. Call of Duty is, ostensibly still, a good game, and I am talking about THE FIRST one. So what is going on, right? They keep putting them out, I keep going "ah, Call of Duty, I played that game, maybe one day I'll buy it in it's vape-flavor-like assortment of attempts to justify just how important it is that we need it annually, and have circled around so many times, we made easy joke material for jeff to totally rip.
Which, thanks jeff, I had fun
*i am joking, have fun with your video game, it looks like a video game for someone, like, a call of duty fan, i have no idea anymore. I want a de-rezzed low poly call of duty with EVERY engine filter turned on, but, in third person, and, waterworld setting. I may be asking a lot
what if there were a reality in which ubisoft decided to be cool and make an excellent hybrid shooter good ghost recon game again :(. To both companies, take like, three years off, and really reinvent something for video games. I know that's idealistic, and unrealistic as heck but you should do it, because there's enough talent working at these studios that obligatory releases, while trying not to dunk on whomever's idea this was, was not the cool idea to go with this year, and it feels like they are throwing darts with each passing year..*bloopy horns* well, that's call of duty!
