Video Games : Game Harder JFG Edition [ARCHIVED] Video Game • Page 122

I have heard great and not so great things. Maybe it will be a divisive one.

 

All I know is I'm going to love it

 

y’all need to hurry up and get Tsushima and tell me how it is. thought y’all woulda been having it by now smh.

 

It’s out on Friday lol

 

do it no excuses

 

......

 

You won’t play it anyways. You’ll make an excuse for why it wouldn’t meet your standards.

 

It would be a lot cooler if the LEGO NES actually played NES games.

 

Sure, but like they would ever allow that to exist.

 

jokes aside the game looks up my alley and I hope it’s good whether I play it or not

also some of my disqualifying standards are if it’s on a console I don’t own lol

 

Reviews for ghost of tsushima range between 7 and 9.5

 

Ghost of Tsushima metacritic is at 84 right now

 

I'm so excited to play it

I'm in the middle of Odyssey right now which was probably not a great idea to start that right before it lol

 

It looks like the open world of Ghost is way more manageable than Odyssey. Seems like it’s a good size but not too big.

I think open world games in general need to take more of a lesson from what Rocksteady back did in Arkham City: even a smaller-sized open world can feel huge and engrossing provided it is densely packed with points of interest and unique things to do. We don’t need every game world to be as big as Greece in Odyssey or Egypt in Origins.

I enjoyed Odyssey a lot but it’s world felt way emptier and more lifeless to me than that open world from 2011, despite it being a fraction of the size, for that reason.

 

I’m replaying GTAV right now and having similar thoughts, a lot of games could learn from how almost every single corner of this map is detailed and interesting and unique.

 

the next gta needs to have lots of interior spaces I think to make things fresh

 

I think Odyssey’s world is pretty incredible tbh especially if you care about that era

 

Plus it usually didn’t stretch out quest lines across the world, so really the different areas were little open worlds

 

Smaller world for sure. 1/3 the size of V would be nixe.

 

Yakuza still does "open world" the best.

 

To me that’s more of a hub world

 

Getting the boys back together to play Halo 3 tonight and yes I will cry.

JFG

 

RDR2 is by far the best open world ;)

 

I don't understand? Hub world is like Demon's Souls. Yakuza is open world, but instead open cities because you can travel between Kamurocho and Osaka, both have tons of places to visit, things to do like bowling, darts, arcades, missions, street fights, etc.

It's exactly the same just on a smaller scale because you're traveling by foot the whole time.

I much rather have that then a Horizon Zero Dawn (which has an awful waypoint system) where I'm traveling for like ten minutes at a time between locations just for the sake of the world being big.

 

How about just open city games instead?

That makes it a lot simpler to explain.
