It looks ok. Something to play with my son maybe while he’s away at college .

The animations look smooth but as usual overly demonstrative. Not personally feeling the attraction. That could change but not at this point.

IanTH1485d ago (Edited 1485d ago )

I'm having a tough time figuring out what you mean by the animations looking "demonstrative". I'm not familiar with any usage of the word that really lines up, so I also did a quick definition check since I know words can have more meanings than I'm familiar with. But when I looked it up, I still didn't see anything that I felt fit. I'm not trying to catch you in a "gotcha!" or anything petty, just trying to understand the usage :-)

morganfell1485d ago

Its something you see in many games. The guy in the forefront of the screen is an example. He seems to be working on something and it isn't going correctly. Putting his hand to his helmet as if he is puzzled, throwing out his hands and such. It doesn't look human. Its more Marcel Marceau than real. You see characters in games nod way to hard and far too much during conversations or they gesticulate wildly. Its as if the developers are going to far, trying to hard to make us feel that a character is alive and they end up acting like a mime. Particularly when they want us to understand what a NPC is thinking just by watching them.

The 7 Best Co-op Games on PS5

There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.

For coop, get a used switch instead

jznrpg122d ago

I own a Switch and have never played co-op on it. I do play Elden Ring , Demons Souls and some other co/op games with my friends on PS5. Baldurs Gate 3 is the next game I’ll play co-op. Can’t do that on a Switch

Cacabunga121d ago

I was thinking for couch casual immediate fun.. not online coop games that require some adaptation.

played it..de-installed it after 30 minutes.

Lighter9693d ago

I got pretty far, and just stopped caring. I uninstalled it as well.

Profchaos693d ago

It's extremely generic. It's not bad but it reminds me of the period between 2007 and 2009 where gears introduced cover shooters so almost everyone went out and made a unreal engine 3 cover shooter.
It feels like that to destiny

IanTH693d ago (Edited 693d ago )

For some it is. At launch, I expect more people felt that way. It also had tons of technical issues back then, at least on PC. I tried it after the New Horizons expansion later last year. I found the campaign enjoyable enough, even if not an amazing one. The gameplay was pretty fun, the story was pretty pants (but how many games can say otherwise lol). Still had some bugs even then, though.

I've no idea what is in the newest expansion, but if it ever piqued your interest, I'd suggest giving it a shot. It might give you 20-30 hours of fun before it fizzles out. Maybe I'll look into this expansion, see what's what.

MadLad692d ago (Edited 692d ago )

I'm having fun with it.
Originally avoided it having heard of the issues around launch.
It has been sitting on Gamepass so finally downloading it the other day.
I'm about 3 hours in, have my Trickster class at level ten, and it's a pretty good time.

Don't know if I'll end up beating it or not, but I'd give it a solid 8 so far, personally.

Livingthedream692d ago

Nah it’s fun, first 30 minutes ain’t enough. Give it a go!

Terry_B692d ago

Bad...nah. Its simply super boring

I played through the entire campaign. It was very generic. The story was mediocre and the technical issues on PC were pretty bad. They patched it up quite a bit. It plays better now. I can say the only reason why I enjoyed it was because I missed Division 2-type gameplay but was was tired of running around the same areas in New York. The endgame is just an enemy hitpoint multiplier where a tiny creature has 20,000 HP. It's too bullet-spongy.

Call me when it's free to keep.
