    Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

    Can you please tell the rest of the Owlcat team I hope to God Putin bags all of you, as well as your families and friends, and uses you to soak up Ukranian bullets and clean minefields with your limbs so actual humans don't need to risk their lives? Also, for as long as I live, I will never...

    .

    Remaster really, they're adding a bunch of community mods, higher resolution textures and updating the character models. That being said, since the release is tied to the SS1 remake it's not coming out until that piece of shit crawls out the door.

    Capcom Resident Evil 4 Remake - out now for PC/Playstation/Xbox

    I think it's partially because Japanese developers seem to like to iterate on an idea, rather than make something completely new from scratch. Also, the hype and sales benefits are not to be ignored. Capcom knows very well how popular RE2 and RE4 are, and banks on this to sell the remakes...

    Capcom Resident Evil 4 Remake - out now for PC/Playstation/Xbox

    RE4 featured QTEs for the same reason it kept the camera so close to Leon, why the FOV was so narrow, why the enemy AI/maps enable flanking the player, and why you couldn't move and shoot - creating tension. RE4 might not be a particularly scary game, but on a first playthrough you will be in a...

    We need another game like Alpha Protocol

    Problem is the clunkiness, since it holds back the rest of the experience. I have thought about it and never could figure an elegant way to marry skills/attributes and stealth in the framework of a third-person shooter/RPG hybrid. I guess one way to do it would be to increase the time it takes...

    World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

    IIRC they scrapped most, if not all assets from the previous attempt, so I imagine this isn't that cheap of an investment on the part of Paradox.

    World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

    We can all agree that developers, like any other organization, carry around a certain degree of institutional experience - either through the employees on their payroll, the internal procedures developed and put into effect by management or through their internal archive of files, protocols...

    World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

    I'm just baffled by their choice of developer. All things being equal are the Chinese Room really the best candidate for the job? They're a bunch of dumb modders that have made two (three?) shitty walking sims nobody cares about, one of which was so bad the whole Amnesia community was up in arms...

    Gloomwood - Thief-ish stealth horror game from New Blood Interactive - now available on Early Access

    I have to wonder how much time you actually spent on the game considering you can't even complete the tutorial without actually leaning, and the tutorial takes up all of 10 minutes. Guards do have "tap shoes", the sound engine may not be as good as Thief's (but then again, none actually are)...

    World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

    Problem is that most of the male audience is not particularly interested in urban fantasy, and most of the female audience is not interested in cRPGs - or at least the kind of cRPGs you would want being made. There's also the problem of IP. Granted, you could always create a new one for the...

    Incline Why was shoutbox banned?

    You're barking up the wrong tree. Nobody would be discussing the kulturkrieg if leftists didn't make everything political. Movies, games, books, cartoons, comics. Everything is politicized, everything is used for propaganda. If you want to blame someone, blame the people shoving politics into...

    World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

    I may be repeating myself, but even putting aside the retarded politics the Chinese Room espouse, so far all they've ever made have been walking simulators. Bad ones at that. Nobody liked A Machine for Pigs, not even cucked Marxists. Why have they been tasked with making a game as complex and...

    Redfall - open world vampire slaying co-op FPS from Arkane Austin

    Supposedly someone leaked info on Pedoera that Redfall is going to be released in rough shape, and Starfield would have a buggy release too if Microsoft manages to force Bethesda to release the game early. Apparently Azure has been a shitshow and MS needs everyone to make shekels to recoup all...

    Of 40k Traitor Primarchs and their tragedies

    None. They are all traitors, they are all failures. They betrayed their Lord and Master, and by doing so betrayed the whole of humanity as well. Not to say most loyalist Primarchs are any better. They all think they have the right to question the God Emperor and put in doubt His goals.
