Shadow of Mordor deserves more attention. Come in and be hyped with me.
- Thread starter VanWinkle
- Start date
I don't think they adressed any of the PC technical questions. I am hesitating on getting this on Steam until we hear something, anything.

There is going to be a PC stream today according to the AMA. I want to say it started at 3? Not sure what time zone though. Sorry!

American reviewers are, but I don't think Canadian copies have really gone out yet.

Top of the pile? No, not really. However, there are some pretty big Canadian outlets.
There's the Sun, Globe and Mail, We Got This Covered, Canadian Online Gamers

I don't believe they mentioned any recommended specs or anything but they did say that the PC was a primary development platform and not ported from the console version. Monolith has strong PC roots so I'm sure they are taking the PC version seriously.

They will show PC footage at Nvidia Game 24 around 3PM PDT today.

"the framerate is capped at 100 fps due to internal engine settings. You will able to see the graphics in the Nvidia stream tomorrow and the PC was one of our primary development versions."

The narrator that is in this video sounds familiar.

He's done the narration for all the game's trailers.
Are any of the original devs behind F.E.A.R. and NOLF left at Monolith though?
Reading the reddit interview right now.
It drives me fucking crazy that people are comparing this game to Assassin's Creed. THEY ARE NOTHING ALIKE!
I'm not enthusiastic about the persistence of PR personalities in the videogame industry at the moment, but Monolith should have hired someone who knew his trade and would have known how to put this bullshit to rest.
Destiny not an MMO? excellent PR-speak that brain-washed almost every individual in and out of the game-press. Getting dePlater out there and show the game in its full glory was the right move, but they should have had a better strategy to deal with the "Shadow of Mordor using Assassin's Creed assets" gossip.
edit: he did a great job answering the lore-maniac. Dude obviously couldn't take it and started arguing semantics and details XD

That black leather chair looks comfy as fuck.
Man, this documentary is awesome. More devs should do this. I really like how grateful the Monolith guys seem over all the hype.

Honestly, it sounds like Neil deGrasse Tyson.
Nice. I need to catch a little to hold me over.
I really like that they show a lot of the game pre release especially the nemesis system.
Shows that they have confidence about the game.
Brian Griffin

Yeah, it's been sweet. I'm a game dev in the Seattle area so I know some people at Monolith and they are extremely confident in it.
Yeah, that stuff is really awesome. They've got a lot of work put into that Nemesis System, for sure.

Yes
Technically, Destiny isn't an MMO.

there should be another stream at game24 nvidia event in a bit. They will show the PC build and the "challenge mode" whatever that is.
I'm guessing it's going to be like Batman's Challenges. Hopefully there's a score attack mode.

You can probably go to Past Broadcasts on the Machinima twitch page and find it at some point.

An already overhyped game that's basically going on graphics, physics and a very well established brand name deserves more attention. C'mon, let's help.....
....but that Cuphead game.
Looks pretty good though, eh.

Have they mentioned any of the PC details they said they would discuss from their AMA?
Oh man, that area looks great! Looks really good on PC, too.

This game has been overhyped? What universe do you live in?
It didn't get a lot of attention when I made this thread two months ago. Hardly anybody was talking about it. Now, I still don't think it's even remotely overhyped, and even still, hardly anybody is talking about the visuals and physics.

It has Joel as the lead and David as the support character ... It's GOT to be good.
Maybe it will have long legs through positive word of mouth.
