after 6 years in development, jonathan blow's second game "the witness" is about to release next month
thoughts? are you excited for it?
>>319648193
Witness you say?
Oh shit, thanks for letting me know, I was looking forward to it. The visuals are breddy gud, and I hope that the same level of skill that went into braid went into this.
>>319648193
It was supposed to come out in 2012. Also I like braid but it is clearly overrated. I'm not a fan of puzzlers. I'll probably pirate it, play it for 10 minutes then drop it like every other puzzle game I've tried.
No. Blow is a fag and everything he does exudes pretentiousness. I won't even pirate it. Sage.
Overrated though it was, Braid was an excellent and well thought out game. This looks to be really excellent, something about it is reminiscent of Myst, which I've been missing lately.
>>319648745
Myst was shyt
>Blowhard is actually releasing another game
Good for him
>>319648193
Looks super comfy
This was the only reason I was excited for PS4. When The Witness, Rime, and Bloodborne definitive edition are out, I'll buy a PS4
>>319649253
It's not an exclusive.
>>319648193
>6 years for an adventure game
Explain. Nothing about this looks like it should've taken 6 years.

bich i will fite yu
I already own Talos Principle. Why should I care about this?
Talos principle already shat on blows hopes and dreams
>>319649626
>>319649635
Who told you you can only enjoy one game in each genre?
Sucks to be you petty children.
>>319649532
I've been assured that the audio engineering is out of this world
>>319649727
No one, but if Blowhard expects a sale he better tell me why I should care about his game.
Or release a demo, like TP did.
>>319649912
Clearly because he thinks its worth it.
Like every game made and released for money, ever.
>>319649870
What do you mean?
>>319649962
what a shitty argument. kill yourself as soon as possible.
>>319650206
Nah, it clearly hit home.
Why are you pretending to be a level headed informed consumer - when you just got called out on shitposting?
>>319649962
He may think it's worth it but I don't know if it's worth a purchase.
Why should I care about this game?
>>319650286
golly gee, this whole anonymous thing sure is hard, huh?
>>319650348
I replied to two people and you replied to me in the manner that I started a conversation with you - clearly you were one of them.
This isn't one of those cases where you can hide behind anonymity, anon
>>319650476
you see that '(14)' on my post? take a wild guess at what that means.
>>319650584
We aren't all using the same addons anon, 14 ips doesn't mean 14 posters.
But let me tell you once again - your post - the second one or as you claim, the first one - was fucking worthless.
>hurr how dare they expect me to buy a game
Its not 2005, whining about a lack of demos randomly in a specific title's thread is just plain out of place and stupid.
You are just biased against the creator and came in to shitpost
>haha but TP is better already
Heres your last (You)
Next month and they didn't even show it at PSX? This game's going to have a quiet release.
>>319650343
Find out by yourself, or fuck off?
>>319648193
>beautiful as fuck game world
>actual game takes place on little 2d puzzle things sticking out of the ground everywhere
why
I've been waiting for years for this game to come out, I'm really excited.
I'm curious to see how those "mazes" really work. You can see that some of the way they are solved aren't correct, so I wonder what kind of rules you have to follow exactly.
>>319651328
So there's no reason to care about this game? Okay then.
>>319651535
Why are you still here?
>>319651569
To tell you that you need to have your marketing material on hand the next time you try to shill something.
>>319651661
Sure buddy, now leave.
>>319651328
back the fuck off???
>>319651661
>WAAH I WANT TO MAKE UP MY MIND BY MYSELF
>but market the game to me though
>>319651904
>Are you interested in this game?
>Is there a demo?
>No.
>Then tell me what makes this game worth playing.
>How about you fuck off instead?
This isn't how you sell things. You were told this during your intern.
>>319652206
So you desperately want me to be a marketer shilling for the game, but when I don't any marketing and tell you to look for yourself you think I just suck at my job.
Just how hopelessly bored/retarded are you? I'm hiding these posts, have fun with somebody else.
>>319652354
Looks like it's someone's first day on the job
>>319652354
The damage control section of your handbook is what you refer to when things go wrong. You're not supposed to start the thread with it.
Someone's not getting a christmas bonus this year.
It's going to be interesting and memorable but ultimately not much fun.
Just like his other game.
>video game thread on /v/ turns into a cesspool of shitposting
Wow, what a surprise.
>>319648193
I got braid for 1$ in a PSN sale. I want my money back.
>>319653416
>thread for a game from a pretentious hipster turns into shitposting
Nothing wrong with that.
>hey look at this new game coming out
>why should i care
>reasons
>fuck off marketer shill
everytime
>>319648193
>>319655009
I'm not seeing those reasons. Mind pointing them out for me?
>>319651828

Braid was good and had some clever puzzles despite being an overrated game generally. Looking forward to playing this.
so much anti-indie faggotry.
i liked braid and i was looking forward to this since i first discovered it.. back in 2011(fuck).
will play one day.
>>319656918
Braid wasn't an indie game. It had a budget of millions.
>>319649517
I own aMac
>>319657712
Anybody who puts this much money into his own company is considered independent I think
>>319648193
That looks kinda like Battlefield Heroes
>>319652439
>>319652493
God bless you /v/
>>319648571
>myst-like game
what kind of skill are you hoping for? i'm not sure a game like this should require dexterity of any kind
Too little too late
>>319659354
props for not crowdfunding like that kike tim shafter
