Oh Ancient Rome! Are you proud Mars??
The road to redemption is nigh! -Claims Ryse - Son Of Rome!-
The angry mob came to be because of apparent bad quick-time combat events, how timing is important and all those features which make a game rather tough/rage-quit-inducing.....
BUT that wasn't the actual gameplay, I don't remember now if that was made clear back then at E3 BUT now they say they that wasn't the real deal.....and they have just shown us the stuff at Gamescom...
It's Xena/God Of War-styled....whack those guys with your weapons and shield when possible...
Not too much focus on action-prompting scenarios and rather fluid....we'll get that finishing blow kick!
So...?? Unravel your panty knots! It's not that bad!
It didn't bug me that much...because the first thing I thought of when the gladiator dude set foot into the Colosseum was that Pepsi commercial back then with Pink/some others.....but in the game, the people aren't too keen on singing, they scream and yell a lot though........yeah, my mind trails off that fast.....
They've even dropped the multiplayer bomb on us!
They have awesome sea battles and chariot stuff going on or rather HAD!!
Reenactment of those bloody days!
Why remove them?? Because they don't run smoothly.....but..but....but....horsies and fishies and big kitties....it's the CryEngine.....it's supposed to shed tears of excitement....
Ah well.....there would be enthralling deaths...hoho! Another game that glorifies death...there you go!
We would have a ginormous battle where gladiators/some dudes just keep coming...sounds tough?
Not yet! We are supposed to be entertaining people with brutal kills......(and you guys say I'm the crazy one), because if you don't, you'll be pelted with vegetables (and you wonder why food scarcity was prevalent back then) and the commentator goes all bitchy and say how lame we are....let's just drag that mofo down onto the field and see how he handles it....=p
With all the kills though, you could invoke your chosen God's powers :
Apollo (health), Jupiter (time manipulation), Diana (experience) and Mars (strength)...
If you're an atheist...well...you'll get a religious angry mob going ape-shit on you in the colosseum...and so you'll definitely lose the battle because crazy people fight better than violent sane ones..
If you're agnostic, you'll never know if you'll win or lose and doubt that fighting barbarians would make a difference in life at all...
Not going to stop there! We have microtransaction......where we spend spend spend game gold/real money to upgrade/customize our little gladiator! ...I would love to put some bling bling on him =p
Wait till they announce a DLC for it......hehehe....
About DLC, guess what??
The new DLC maps for Killzone : Shadow Fall will be free!
You ain't dreaming! So some people say why it's a DLC then? Why not include in the game from the start??
Well, DLC stands for 'downloadable contents' and not 'digging-looting contents'....
They don't have to burn a hole through one's wallet to be a DLC but they do have to be downloaded =)
Besides, maybe they want to impress us with cool maps (which really takes some time)...give them a chance to do it!
With that said...I got a question from someone....=)
'Why are your reviews/comments always neutral?? Are you a hippie or something? Do you never hate?'
I shall answer the easiest one first.....not a hippie but definitely a something =p
I do hate stuff....somewhat.....
I'm pretty much neutral because that's just how I roll! There is no such thing as a perfect game...even my top three favourite games have flaws...
Let's face it! Every game has its pros and cons, how else would there be sequels or prequels?? Sure you say some suck but they have improved features! How would new games be awesome if all the tricks are out? How would people be amazed if the big guns are all out?
If the first Saints Row game was like SR-IV, how would they improve that and impress everyone??
Engines are not hocus-pocus, some can't accommodate certain level of simulation...
Imagine if we got the PS4 back then instead of the PS....how would we top that in the future? Sure we can but it would really take a lot of engineering and that takes years...ideas do not fall out of the sky nor do they grow on trees...they might even have PS5 already, with maybe a few features more than the PS4 and are working to make it different enough to make people want to buy it......who knows yes?
Oh who are we kidding....? People will definitely buy them even if they are exact replicas...XD
The thing is they have to remove/put in some aspects in order to keep the industry momentum going...you could say they are holding back to dig gold out of our guts but yeah, that's how the world works....deal with it...did I get carried away?? Oooppss......
Now EA is offering refunds for games bought on Origin...what are your thoughts on that??
Are people going to take advantage of that.......?? What sort of funky ideas people can get??
We'll find out soon, I'm seriously intrigued....because I've already heard a few psychotic stuff XD
With that rant over, I just have to say....inFamous : Second Son looks greaattt!!
I did mention this before but......it's awesome!!
Apart from the new powers, gameplay looks superb!
Have lots of questions about it! Is Delsin going to make references of prequels??
He was around 17 after all....how did he get superpowers??? Is Cole in the game???
Are they going to have water-elemental powers?? Earth?? Air??? Metal??
Awww-yeah...we're going to go all bend-this-element in this game!
I want to be The Beast!!
A new game came to my attention - K.I.S.A!
It's set in the ye olde days...when kings could find joy in jesters and witches were hated....(they are still hated these days......really...???)
We play as Kisa, a court jester, who's accused of being a witch....wow...that didn't take long....and thrown into the dungeon and to be burnt on a stake...
She then gets a message from a mysterious voice saying she's the one who can save the princess and so must find means to escape...
I'm pretty sure people start hearing stuff after being incarcerated awhile.....it may not be true Kisa...don't be fooled by your mind.....
People those days were indeed odd.....trying to prove that a lady was a witch by drowning/burning her...??
She wouldn't be caught in the first place if she was a witch!!!!! Unless she enjoyed it....?? Ugghh...
What's the matter with those guys??? Jeeberz!
And I heard that if a butterfly landed on a lady's finger, she's a witch.....what....??
What part of that makes sense????!! How did that come about...??
If you say it's because butterflies are creepy, you clearly haven't seen Dora yet.....
I would watch Kefka all day over her.....and BTW, blobfish are adorable! Don't say otherwise!
It's a semi-stealth and rather grim game, can't wait to play it! =p
That's all for today!
