So he's not a good Bond?

Playing the game is irrelevant when discussing acting ability.

I don't think he conveys those qualities very well at all and thats necessary to playing Bond well IMO. You must think he's good in the role given your response, if you don't think he's good then what are we discussing exactly?

I never said he was good or bad 🤷‍♂️ I'm still playing through it.

This is the third and last time I'm going to say this: I was saying he has the suave and smug confidence that Bond characters have, even though he's young.

You said he didn't have a hint of it (you haven't played the game). I am playing it. He has it. It feels like a Bond movie.

I'm moving on from this convo, man. I've already replied way more than I should have.

You do realise the fact he is seeing the game like this only makes it worse?
 
Honestly the Internet is fucking hilarious. Everyone whines about GaaS and "where are meh single player gamez" and here is a very good, competent single player game and the internet still shits on it. You guys get what you deserve tbh.

You really have no idea what you're talking about, and yes actually playing the game is relevant when discussing acting ability because you see all the interactions and dialogue he has. What a room temp IQ take.

You got emotional issues buddy, seriously talking about acting ability and you say you need to play the game? So how many movies you played lately? And you're saying I got a low IQ 😂 How about having respect for differing opinions 🤡

Are you serious dude? Multiple people who own the game are telling you he feels like Bond. You watching a random 5 min video doesn't mean shit when you're missing 99% of the other dialogue and interactions he has in the game, which you can experience by, wait for it, playing it.

You are fundamentally wrong buddy, watching acting is passive entertainment and is judged as so. Where in any post did I say I've only watched 5 mins? Talk about making shit up to jump on someone's opinion, take a life lesson and learn some manners.

Okay dude, the 5 mins of out of context "acting" you watched trumps us all, including those of us who have seen 100x more of the dialogue and interactions and atmosphere of the game than you. You win, he's not Bond.

Here, take a 🧠 as well.

I have to say, I completely disagree with the people saying it doesn't feel like Bond at all. For me, this is the Bond game. With a bit of Uncharted mixed in.

The more I play, the more fun I'm having, and I'm still relatively early in the game.

The best Bond game in the market right now, including Goldeneye.

Bit of a stretch to say it is the best Bond game on the market "right now".....it is the ONLY bond game on the market right now, there isn't any other, and Golden eye was decades ago, this game, is likely ONE of the best, alongside GoldenEye, Bloodstone....(and that game was the best Bond game since 2011...)

This new bond feels very Whedon-esque, Unchartedified, corporate filtered, and yes, woke (confirmed with some spoilers I read). Not a good start for a new AAA franchise.

Lecturing people about playing games for challenges in the OT and confessing here that you haven't even played it while spouting second hand nonsense.

Gonzito Gonzito are you seeing this shit bro?

PC Gamer review is stupid and written by someone who doesn't like Bond to be in a video game. What's the point? Why would you ask a person who doesn't like <game theme/type> to review <game>?

ok I read the PC Gamer review, imo it's a fairly balanced take by someone who really likes IOI games esp. Hitman and thus stealth/action stuff. 007 takes the sandbox from Hitman and the thrill from Uncharted but doesn't mix or get it right with enough depth.

imo, I think it's actually a good review, you don't have to agree with him if you're loving it, but as a critic, he did a fine job even if it might look like he is going for the "contrarian" approach.

The game has nothing woke tbh otherwise I would call it out. Maybe a couple of women can come across a bit bossy at first but I like how the writers made Bond always ignore their commands and he does what he wants.

Its actually refreshing because it goes against the ideology of women being in charge. Bond is the one in charge not them lol
