Insomniac Games: Story of Resistance 3 won't be so Complex

Jon Paquette, the lead writer at Insomniac Games (Resistance 3) is not necessarily believe that stories in games too complex to fail because people do not like consumed movies. "A movie, you sit down and you say, 'I'm going to watch this from beginning to end.'".For a game you sit down and you play 30 minutes, or five minutes, etc. This way, you can quickly lose the thread when the story is too large, he said. Therefore, he thinking that if you keeping story easy, game will enjoyable to play.

No disrespect to fans, but complex and a game story still don't belong in the same sentence.

Resistance games always had more complex stories than your average shooter but of course they dont mean that was actually complex.

Learning about the Chimera while playing R1 SP was a pretty cool thing.

MidnytRain4648d ago

Why is the grammar in the description so bad? Is it Google Translate? If it is, I'm not clicking on it.

Anyway, I think R2's story was needlessly complex. "Complex" may not be the right word for it, but it was hard to understand nonetheless. It left too much to the player to figure out for himself, like they assumed we always knew what was going on at any given time.

This really discourages me from buying the game.

e-p-ayeaH4648d ago (Edited 4648d ago )

cheer up, resistance 3 story is probably only about survival and having objectives along the away which makes sense since the game is called resistance.

It may not be complex but it doesnt mean it will be actually more enjoyable.

Sometimes simplicity is for the better.

PixL4648d ago

I've just thought about it and you're probably very, very right! Thanks, I mean it.

CaptainMarvelQ84648d ago (Edited 4648d ago )

sometimes a straight forward story is better than a story that 'tries' to be complex but fails and ends up in being plain stupid.(im not talking about resistance,but games in general)

TBM4648d ago

As long as its still enjoyable IG I don't have a problem. The game is already paid for and i'll be enjoying this game just like the others in the series.

'Spider-Man 2' video game director teases potential Venom spinoff: 'We're gonna listen to the fans'

The game's narrative director Jon Paquette explained whether Insomniac Games is planning a Venom spin-off after "Marvel's Spider-Man 2."

darthv72221d ago

I'd def be down for that. Maybe its you causing havoc and occasionally running into the webcrawler, but otherwise you meet up with some of the sinster six and just go from there.

Tex4242220d ago

A Venom game would be cool, but I'd prefer if we get away from Spiderman for a bit. Maybe reboot Infamous or Sunset Overdrive.

Resistance 3 is such a great game. One of my all time bests.

cooperdnizzle699d ago

Couldn’t agree more. Still love It as a shooter to this day.

Just something about that game. I really wish they would just do a remaster, don’t even need a remake just bring it up to todays out put, touch up a few things if any, and I am there to buy it day one.

Of course I would love a remake built from the ground up. As long as they treated it like Shadow of the Colossus, or close to those type of remake. Wouldn’t want it to get the RE treatment…. Just because the game is already paced so perfect and hits all the right beats that I wouldn’t touch that aspect.

My take:

Single player
3, 2, 1

Multiplayer
3, 1, 2

Overall
3, 2, 1

I beat the lengthy single player in 1 multiple times and spent hours in the online too. Plus 1 featured my home town! Special mention to the audio design in 1: playing that with surround headphones blew me away.

Note: I have the platinum for Resistance 2.

Eidolon756d ago

Resistance 1 MP will always be my favorite. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but that was my jam, felt more balance, natural.

Miraak82 756d ago

i have the platinium too , 10k kills in online ranked matches was no joke . Took me 3-4 months straight grinding but it was fun . To put it in perspective you only got like 25 kills per match if you were 1st place every match that's at Least 400 matches in 1st

Sciurus_vulgaris757d ago

I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2

GoodGuy09757d ago

Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

fr0sty756d ago

Resistance, Warhawk, MAG, Motorstorm, there's so many first party gems on PS3 that Sony has just left to die...

P_Bomb757d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey602756d ago

Burning Skies was about 3 hours long and rather inconsequential. You haven't missed anything

porkChop756d ago

Honestly, Burning Skies was shit. There's no two ways about it. At first I thought it looked terrible, then I second guessed myself. Big mistake.

darthv72755d ago

Retribution has this really cool feature where you could use a PS3 to link a controller to it and play. So if you had a 2000 or 3000 hooked to a tv, you can use a real controller. All of this predates the PSP Go's ability to sync a sixaxis to it via bluetooth.

Yui_Suzumiya756d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.
