Crytek's Last Chance to Prove Ryse is Not All About the Cinematics

"After we got over the mesmerizing graphics, we started to realize that the game seemed more cinematic than interactive. Concerns about gameplay and the overuse of Quick time events plagued the title, essentially bringing its reputation down. They've got a two weeks to change that" - Shanklish

Crytek only ever care about making the best looking game. Gameplay is an after-thought with these people.

GarrusVakarian3844d ago

Have to agree with this, its always been style over substance with Crytek.

Kryptix3844d ago

It wasn't surprising that the game would be all visuals and lack great gameplay and substance because it's Crytek. Most of the time, all you do is repeat slashes and watch executions. As stated in this article and many others, it's really a QTE fest with great visuals and that's it. Not even a unique story, they said it's cliche and has been done before.

JackISbacK3844d ago

no man i'am just shock after looking the gameplay footage provided in this link go look out the gameplay ,it looks like they have a greatfocus on gameplay,saing that cryteck never works on gameplay is false becuse you must play crysis games ,they use to have amazing gameplay and graphics but shit like story ,yeah we can also see it here its is having amazing graphics ,good gameplay ,and we dont know anything about the story time will tell is xbox worth buying or better than ps4 anything can happen,we must take a good breath,atleast i'am not a fan boy i will go for better console and reviews and my own judging skills will tell.

Platinum_Neutral3844d ago

So in real life. Do you ever catch a breath when talking? I have played Crysis 3, and to be honest the gameplay is nothing to call "amazing". I liked the game, and it is graphically impressive.
If you seek a blend of amazing gameplay AND graphics, I would stick with Battlefield 4.

RamsesNum13844d ago

Yeah, plus it seems that Microsoft REALLY wanted their own version of God of War. Although, the game looks like it could've had so much potential. It's a shame really.

AgentFlex3844d ago

yeh i have to agree with a couple of things, but the graphics will do the xbox one justice, in terms of gameplay it looks fun, especially if you have the kind of arkham batman style of fighting.

slivery3844d ago

Well surprise, surprise, it is all mainly just cinematic.. I tried to warn people when I played this and other games at Eurogamer but as always people are so in denial about the Xbox One..

Somehow Sony fans are to blame for everything apparently.. Seems the only response I hear from Xbox One fans, is oh Neogaf is to blame, Sony fans are the problem.. Give me a break already with that crap.

Delusion at its finest. When Sony has problems I don't go around blaming Xbox fans all day.. What a stupid excuse to justify a purchase.

RamsesNum13844d ago

I Agree. I'm an Xbox fan myself and having played Ryse, at least a bit of it, I have to admit that the cinematic nature of the whole game seems to have taken over the core gameplay.

The main reason for the QTE executions is to show off the kill with different camera angles and in slow mo.

Ryse has some interesting concepts but they ain't enough

Crytek Gives Brief Update on New Crysis Game; Studio Has a "Great Team" Working on It

Crytek gives an update on their new Crysis game, confirming that it's still in development, with more to share down the road.

DefenderOfDoom2166d ago

Actually would love a new Crysis campaign.

P_Bomb166d ago

Ditto. Ran through them again last year. I’ll grab the new one.

Crazyglues165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

Yeah they really messed up by not adding the Multi-player to the Crysis Triogly because while the campaign was fun I really loved the Multi-player and couldn't wait to see what it was going to be like on current gen.

They could have dropped new maps and DLC and fans would have bought it up... -But they dropped the ball and did just the Campaign's with no new content or story, which was just crazy.

Anyway still hoping Crysis 4 is the whole Chicken Sandwhich with all the toppings.... Can't wait.

PrinceOfAnger165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

Yeah It will probably be 5 years development

SimpleSlave165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

That's awesome. So how long till the studio closes and everyone gets fired?

Series S owners: "but can it run crysis doh?"

Shadow of Rome was so freaking good

Sashamaz391d ago

I'm still waiting for the sequel.

HyperMoused391d ago

Ryse was awesome, i have no idea why it wasnt recieved well and why we havnt seen another, Rome conquered so much, you could take the action anywhere, and it looked great when xbox one came out, now would be even better.
