Lmaooo got temp-banned from Twitch chat for sharing the leaked trailer.

Brother None nods his head with a knowing look.

 

[RepHope]

Trailer was great. I really hope it’s not just bull shots.

 

[Agame]

No Mans Sky + Borderlands, fabulous design!

 

[Dishonoredbr]

Best shot from the trailer. I didn't expect the open areas to be that big.

 

[Hellion]

Facial animations plus character and object shadows are the 2 things that are constantly bothering me with any footage from the game. At times it's as if characters don't even cast any shadows at all.

 

[Quillon]

Wonder if there'll be a map with that rail system in working condition

^Cuck conclusion.

I didn't say that the graphics are awful in general or that it's a dealbreaker or that the game is going to suck based on these observations, only that it caught my eye and it seems a bit weird in the trailers/footage. Maybe things will be better in the final product.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

Graphics are awful and all this color can give you eye cancer. This trailer was bad and the game will flop hard.

 

[Yosharian]

The graphics are quite bad, but I think the game shows promise in the other departments. Well anyway, they have a year to bugfix and polish the game since it's coming out in 2020, so hopefully it'll be good by then!

Uncanny valley is the concern here, it's something that completely takes you out of the game. Mediocre graphics is one thing, the uncanny valley is a different matter.

 

[AwesomeButton]

Some faces are so much more detailed than others, that if I was a developer I would be embarassed to have to show this.

Shut up haters, the graphics are as beautiful as the women!

EDIT: Sorry I just found this fortunate screenshot. You compare, you decide:

[Prime Junta]

The trailer. I LOLed. I think this is gonna be a good clean janky zany B-movie and there's room in the world for that.

This has a looooong way to go before it reaches the uncanny valley, it's not even trying bless its zany heart.

All the people going "lol the game only comes out in 2020" don't realize they sound dumb now because they're effectively saying they'd rather pay $60 than $5.

Infinitron is a sensible & frugal bot.

5 dollars for xbox game pass, on PC or xbox. You can play it at launch day and gets hundreds of other game as bonus, some of them is epic exclusive, like Metro Exodus.

Bards' Tale 4 and banner saga series is included as well. Unless it will take you more than 12 months to finish outer worlds, otherwise there is no reason to buy it, just get xbox game pass.

Ok first of all, Windows Store is hardly a massive improvement on EGS. Secondly, I still don't fully understand the mechanics of how I get to play TOW on PC using this 'Xbox Game Pass'. The last time I looked into it on the MS site, TOW was NOT in the list of games that would be available for PC, only on console.

Happy to be proven wrong, but even then, not particularly bothered to play it on Windows Store either, and if waiting for the Steam release gets me a bug-free, polished experience, all the better. This is fucking Obsidian we are talking about.

Not to mention that I doubt it will hit Steam for $60 when it releases in 2020.

It always gives me a warm fuzzy feeling when I can make someone happy.

So what cancerous shit do I have to install to get access to that?

 

[Turuko]

the Xbox (beta) app

Windows 10 and a client.
