God, I'm so fucking tired of AAA game devs spouting bullshit like this. Do you make good games, sure, are they revolutionizong the industry, no. Get your fucking head out of your ass.

As a AAA Game Dev, so am I.

In fact, I feel like most of the people who actually work on games and are in the trenches are tired of it too.

Can't wait for the remake of the remake of Last of Us 2! Really genre defining work!

Nice guess, but the revolutionary direction that they have taken Crash Bandicoot will redefine gaming, and media in general, as they elevate art and entertainment to unimaginable levels of creativity and interaction. It will be an award-winning transcendental cultural phenomena.

So far up his own ass he's back out the mouth and heading for a second entry

Sorry Neil but Skull and Bones is already the first AAAA game

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Driver San Francisco

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

Half Life: Blue Shift was, IIMHO, the first Second Person game. You play as Barney and in several places get to see Gordon Freeman doing Half Life 1 things.

Will it be a 3rd person action game with 2 hours of cutscenes and quick time events?

David Cage has entered the chat

But but but...that's amazing storytelling according to ps fanboys.

Kojima takes notes, furiously

[–] Melonpoly 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What are you talking about? Kojima pioneered the Strand Type Game™

[–] steeznson 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Pretty sure he hasn't used QTEs yet... but point taken

[–] Zehzin 2 points 7 months ago

Let me tell you about a little game named Policenauts

[–] [email protected] 17 points 7 months ago

this dude makes Peter Molyneux look like a self-effacing realist

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

It could. It's not going to, but it could.

This is the same guy that thought his anti-revenge story was the second coming of christ and people just didn't understand.

[–] slaacaa 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

My favorite parts were the subtle sci-fi elements, like the characters teleporting between cities

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 11 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Neil Druckmann’s about to make you his bitch.

[–] BigPotato 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah, that's the same energy...

But at least John Romero came off a hot streak with his stinker.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Underrated burn. Hot damn.

[–] steeznson 2 points 7 months ago

When the twitter trolls called him Neil Cuckmann they didn't know who was about to get cucked.

[–] Tylerdurdon 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I got access and you won't believe this... It's a game centered around a big pound sign and then two players take turns placing X's and O's. First one to get 3 in a row wins. Dude, this is gonna be totally revolutionary.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I heard the first dlc, you can put a line through the winning row

[–] kat_angstrom 9 points 7 months ago

Good thing that hype always delivers.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

At this point I'm expecting it to be a movie.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It’s the future of gaming!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

We're making e-gaming history

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Could it be the next Stranding type game?!

I think his writing ability is average at best and is being carried by the elite talent of naughty dog.

[–] Visstix 2 points 7 months ago

Well they are experts in Uncharted territory.
