Support NeoGAF

[Maniac]

Yep, we'll have both kinds.

Internal dev teams in Japan are obviously busy with mainline titles which take time, resources, and manpower. The last item is always the biggest bottleneck in new games development as there's only a finite number of developers/designers available. That's the 'opportunity cost' we work with, so we ensure top internal dev resources are assigned to the most impactful titles (big new IP and/or sequels) while our external dev partners help fill the gap. These include HD ports and remasters and the occasional new IP.

TL;DR...we'll have more of your favorite Capcom HD ports heading your way. Naturally I won't be able to answer which ones so don't ask

Glad to hear DDA doing well! It looks like a lot of fun, and it's definitely by the very top of my wishlist. And I definitely look forward to more old and / or previously console-exclusive games making their way to PC; there's a lot of gold nuggets hidden away in the depths of Capcom. Easy dosh and all that! And seeing how I'm totally not cynical (okay I am incredibly cynical) I assume you guys are competent, and that the good games will be prioritised over some of the... Less than stellar ones.

Also, if you lot want the daily harassment from Jawmuncher to stop, Dino Crisis better be one of the games getting some loving treatment.

Although I'm not sure if there are any I care more about than Dead Rising 1. Best of luck with you folks' future endeavours!

[corrosivefrost]

Don't know about past nominees, but some of last year's actually have competent writing, don't you want something more deserving to win?

I haven't played the others so I have no idea if I would consider the writing more or less competent than RotTR. Judging by past entries in in both the AC and The Witcher franchises, I've never thought they were anything outstanding, but AC:S and TW3 might have put forth better efforts than their predecessors, I can't say.

So again, without knowledge of the other games nominated I can't judge fairly and this I'd get more amusement out of watching GAF meltdown over something posters commonly consider bad winning the award.

As long as I don't have to wait until 1pm EST the day of like I did for Resident Evil Zero.
That was lame. Even PS3 and 360 were playing at 12am EST

The wonders of steam preorders. Get ready to wait.

 

[robotrock]

Hope Street Fighter V unlocks at midnight rather than 1pm EST

 

[Adnor]

how did it win over witcher 3? I'd ask if this award thing was for american made only games but then again TR was made somewhere in euro wasn't it? i doubt the writing in that game is any good if the 2012 one is anything to go by. What were the nominations, fallout 4 was one of them, wasn't it?

It's an award by the Writers Guild of America, so I guess the only participants were members of the WGA.

 

[Hero Prinny]

You want to protect Lara but not Ciri apparently.

again if TR 2012 is anything to go by its the random grunts that need protecting, not lara. she has really brutal kill moves, didn't the game have stealth moves where you jam an arrow into people's eye socket or am i thinking of another game? it feels like there are a lot of games that have nearly a 1:1 stealth kill animation.

oh. well at least fallout 4 didn't win, nominated or not.

Fallout 4 got robbed.

 

[Karak]

Hey saw the video and if I get what you are saying, the game is more about eerie creepy atmosphere rather than jumpscares. It looks extremely interesting but as someone that has given up on dead space because I get too scared to enjoy it, I'm hesitant. Could use your input. (I can of course refund if I get too scared to enjoy the game)
Plus is the game about 1½ Hours long (as howlongtobeat reports) ?
--
Like your videos btw, good job.

Pretty much exactly. Its more about the title of the game really. Then jump scares or anything. Its about a slow vibe.

It took me 3 times that to get through. There are little things to read and find, a couple puzzles and so forth. You CAN get through it quicker but...man I am not even figuring out how someone got through it in 1/12 unless they played it early access then returned to it.

You should try Pillars of Eternity.

Haha, I still firmly believe Redemption will make its way to the PC.

So do I, and I'm a blind optimist. Just need a RDR HD announcement and we'll get a Steam release.

I don't see how Fallout 4 is less deserving of that title, to be honest.

Yup, it is.

Yup, it is.

I'm surprised they haven't sent anything to KS backers about this to remind them (yet).

 

[zkylon]

i thought it was out already?

i have it preordered but haven't gotten around to playing the first chapter yet

One day I will expose on the supplemental narratives that makes Borderlands that much more awesome. One day. Just not this one.

Spoiler

Krieg is most likely Tiny Tina's father.

Unless that supplemental narrative is the author's intent to make me commit war crimes, I'm unfortunately not going to be receptive.

They split the expansion into 2 parts.
Part 1 released a long time ago. Tuesday is Part 2.

Evilore had a pretty good response to that post.

I honestly don't mind seeing that poster getting the boot, he has a tendency to shit up threads like that.

In a universe where only Borderlands 2 exists, it's the best writing that ever existed.

You can't argue with this.

Sounds like that's the universe where Borderlands succeeded in destroying all other media.

I doubt the inhabitants would praise it too much, either.

i thought both were out

For reals though why y'all hype for quantum break? After rise of toom braider i aint in the mood for cover shooters.
Then again i am playing uc4 as a matter of principle whenever my brother buys it

Maybe when it actually releases on PC. Might take a while.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'm not even that interested in Uncharted 4. I just play the big AAA releases since for the most part my main tastes lie there.

 

[Servizio]

I think Handsome Jack is a pretty effective villain. A compelling blend of charismatic and loathsome. What does that count for?

Tales from the Borderlands shows that universe wise borderlands has a good set up. Though I wil say that playing Borderlands 2 ATM with friends on PS4, that you have to be invested to get story out of it. We've played a bit and I couldn't tell you what is going on. The story delivery is really bad in that game unless you're on it. Too much of it is through radio chatter whil you're in the middle of a fight petering to do other things.

Even though I'm not really high on Quantum Break I'm interested in it because of Remedy, I know they can make good games. I fully expected Rise to be the mediocre game it is after playing the reboot.


I'd play Uncharted above any of them though as of right now.

I've only gotten one hate message ever, I did get an invite to a group called "I'm sorry :^(" after I lost an invasion in Dark Souls 2 by getting pushed off a ledge though, that was pretty amusing.
