this game looks so good! its so damn hard not be excited for this awesome looking game!

Edit: @ below: head on over to IGN, they have a sweet preview of the game. It will most certainly pass the original and is looking to be a GOTY contender for 2009!

This game looks amazing. I hope it surpasses the original in every way.

Did he finish the last guy off by hitting him in the crotch? :o

DAVID BRENT5364d ago

over exaggerate soo much on n4g?

SaiyanFury5364d ago

This is one of 6 games I'm looking forward too. The first game was great, but if they can improve on it, then so much the better.

It had little replayability though due the long-unskippable cutscenes (the same problem half-life has) so i only played it once. I did however find it as one of the few action/adventure games tht i do ejnjoy. The fighting in more popular games like god of war seem to be boring and repetiitve to me, pushing the same button combinations over and over gets old almost instantly. The fighting in Assassins creed was a lot more fun to me, as it was more about timing and skill and less about button mashing.

Right now, this game is at the top of my "maybe" pile, really close to being a "yes"

The glowing people make it look kind of weird. But otherwise, this game is gonna assassinate!

DARK WITNESS5364d ago (Edited 5364d ago )

ya, i think they over did it there...

is it just be, but this gen it seems in an effort to make everything as noob friendly as possible, everything seems to either glow or have "orbs" popping out of it.

I find it a little annoying...infact looking at it again.. i find it very annoying. I hope they give you an option to switch it off. I mean everyone you fight is lit up like a xmas tree for no reason.

the game still looks great. I thought AC was one of the best looking sand box games this gen, it was just s shame the gameplay didn't quite match up.. this looks like they are taking it in all the right directions.

Immortal Kaim5365d ago

Simply amazing. Can't wait for AC2.

swiftshot935365d ago

The lack of hype for this amazing game will only play in favor for AC2.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's Scope Was Impacted by Xbox Series S Limitations

Wccf tech writes: "Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's scope was impacted by the Xbox Series S hardware limitations, as developers could only make a game that was 25% bigger than its predecessor."

This is the issue with things like this

Xbox Series X is apparently to MS the worlds most powerful console

However the Series S is obviously a limitation because it’s underpowered and developers have to go for parity.

So what’s the point of the world’s most powerful console if you are holding third party developers back? They aren’t going to push themselves if they have to think about the weakest console.

The issue wouldn’t be as bad if it was just Xbox but you are also affecting the PS version aswell

I think developers need to start just taking advantage of a console and if one of them can’t do X Y and Z then f*** them…why should the others suffer. What’s MS going to do? The bigger the franchise the least chance MS are going to tell them to f*** off. Baulders Gate 3 seemed to have stood their ground and suddenly their “strict” parity rule didn’t really matter. We suddenly got super optimisation efforts for the Series S that got things sorted.

I agree, and the sad part is use normal folk saw it the second they announced their plans.

More info from the author of the article, I think: https://www.reddit.com/r/ki...

Quote:
"1) I was told this info from the producer of the game Martin Klíma.
2) He specifically said the game will have only one mode.
3) And this mode is 4K 30 on PS5/XSX and 1440p 30 on XSS.
4) He said that the game is already running north of the 30 FPS cap so the performance should be stable on launch, much better than KCD1.
5) The limitation was XSS because of the 10GB memory. He said that's why they wanted to make the game 25% larger.
6) Speculation on my part: the output resolution is probably upscaled and the reason why there won't be a 60 FPS mode is because it'll most likely be very CPU heavy, like Dragon's Dogma 2 for example."

Doesn't seem like they're adding a 40fps mode on PS5/Series X for launch even if they can handle it.

Sgt_Slaughter32m ago

I'd much rather have 1440p/60fps or even 45fps. Having just one, even with the Series S in mind, is disappointing.

I uninstalled d4 after they kept screwing over the sorc build and I beat the game. I also uninstalled immortal after reading the end. I actually went back to d2r here and there.
