No. It doesn't read like that at all.

Yep, Shinobi's response reads like he's saying that the game being revealed at this time with a 10 min presentation is not surprising as it is far along.

Amazing news!

What a game the n64 Indiana jones was and now back in the spotlight.

Hey you know, it'd be kinda nice if they throw in that version as a pre-order bonus or something, it does have an OG Xbox version too IIRC.

edit: Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong game, that n64 version only has a PC port.

Can't wait, but I was so hoping Contraband would make it out this year. After the teams amazing work in Mad Max and Rage 2 I can't wait for Contraband

 

[anothertech]

Hopefully it has aliens and time travel.

I see them making it a mix of 3rd person whipping and jumping and 1st person stealth and shooting plus maybe puzzling. Bonus driving/flying. I don't see them ditching first person entirely since they are a FPS studio plus they said it will be mix of genres.

Or it could be entirely 1st person.

 

[SantaC]

only 3 days left

 

[Ozriel]

imagine this being true (it will not) and yet the discourse around xbox still going to be all doom and gloom.

Surely you're not forecasting another Silksong delay to 2025?

Keep it simple and copy the 80s movies. One part story and exploring, one part action with some comedy. That's it. No need for messing up the cast and getting politcal.

Fingers crossed. The recent Robocop game shows there is some benefit to sticking close to what fans of an IP like best about it.

This will 100% be first person

The people making it have made these games these last 20 years

Riddick
The Darkness
Wolfenstein (3 games)
Quake remake map packs

Notice a pattern?

Think most people are aware of this, but it's not unheard of for studio's to develops something out of their comfort zone.

Look at CA and Alien Isolation, for example.

When the game was first announced Troy Baker posted an Indiana Jones emoji on Twitter if I remember right.

Please not Troy "default choice" Baker...give it that kid who appeared as a young Harrison in that film (name escapes me), he did awesome vocal impersonations of Harrison too ...

Yes. Just like Horizon Zero Dawn was a First Person Shooter just like the Killzone series

While I agree with most of what you said ... putting Quake Map Packs as an example of Machine Games doing first person is weird lol.

It's a map map for long-existing game, they're not gonna take fundamental liberties with it

I think most people hoping for 3rd person is just because we are all so used to Uncharted & Tomb Raider.

Really looking forward to seeing what they have done with the licence.

I'm sure I heard it was to be a mix of 3rd and 1st person. I think it was JorRaptor mentioned it, but I dont remember if it was just a guess or not.

I believe the origin of that 'mix of first and third person' rumor came from one of those questionable credibility 'insider' podcasts.

Games like Doom Eternal and Shadow Warrior 3 show you can do real good first-person platforming.

I love first person games. But platforming for me is always far better in third person. Doom Eternal felt like you were wearing a velcro suit.

 

[BeforeU]

3rd person makes the most sense for cinematic titles

 

[Phase]

Potential replacement for Tomb Raider? Hope so since it seems they only want to release remasters now.

 

[SpokkX]

Yes. Just like Horizon Zero Dawn was a First Person Shooter just like the Killzone series
