Lots of thread about shitty games but none about this game. Let's fix that.
This game will be a masterpiece.
>>341361060
Not a masterpiece, but it'll be pretty good. Unless they turn it into a shitty roguelike. Oh wait.
>>341361390
Is that what they're doing?
>>341361060
Looks great! Can't wait!
Looks good actually.
Reminder that it's a procedural survival game
might be okay, but the BNW concept seems to attract the worst kind of people. the fanbase is going to be insufferable.
>>341361512
Yeah, and if it's anything like the version that was out last year, it'll be disappointing.
>>341361060
I'm glad that Compulsion Games are still a thing.
Contrast was rough around the edges, but I think there was still a charm to it that made me want to see what else they could do.
>>341361060
Can't call it a masterpiece yet, but definitely something to keep an eye on. You can see some old dev logs of the gameplay. Some point and click/social stealth elements. Looks neato.
>>341361390
better than being a shitty movie at least
>literally1984: The GAME
get the fuck outta here
There's been a ton of posts about REEEEEEing this game for being too edgy or whatever the new meme is.
I think it looks pretty interesting, but I'm wondering what they'll price it.
>>341361972
You say it as if it was a bad thing
>>341361843
what do you mean?
>>341361060
>This game will be a masterpiece.
It's like pretty alright at best, the stealth mechanics aren't really good enough
Food demands are also on the needlessly harsh side of the genre
The drug use stuff to be undercover is pretty interesting though
Don't regret backing the kickstarter but people are overhyping it a tad
>>341361972
It's The Prisoner mate
>>341361972
The only things these two hold in common is that they're both dystopian. And 1984 is a fantastic book.
>getting this mad about a new IP
Go fuck yourself so hard.
>>341361060
>/v/ is singing praises of another walking simulator
truly the reddit menace is among us
I was interested in it, but I'm heavily skeptical because
>early access single player game
Depending on the price I may check it out
>>341361060
>HEY LOOK GUYS WE'RE BIOSHOCK!!
>EXCEPT IN A COMPLETELY UNCOMPELLING SCENARIO
>AND CRAFTING MECHANICS!!!!
>BUY OUR GAME!!
>>341361060
>"gameplay"
>It's a video of some first-person cutscenes
Ok
>>341361060
Looks like overwrought tripe. I cringed when the piñata turned out to be a real rat. This is the sort of "societal satire" that would make Jhonen Vasquez wet.
>>341362176
Fuck off with your no true scotsman bullshit, tryhard newfag
>>341362176
Looks like it will play like Condemned: Criminal Origins.
>>341362275
>Not underwater
>No bio-abilities
>Not an FPS
oh yea other than pretty much everything theyre really similar. How dare someone emulate a ten year old game.
>>341362176
It's nothing like a walking sim, the game's a fucking procedurally generated action game
>>341362375
i'm talking shit about a game and here you are invoking a fallacy you heard on vsauce a few minutes ago, aren't you a cute newfriend
>>341362779
No True Scotsman a very common phrase, why assume someone got it from a pretty shitty and relatively obscure youtube channel?
lisa already did this but better
>>341362937
if he's retarded enough to use it wrong it makes sense that he only just heard it and decided to throw it around
>>341363058
You accused them of being an invader from reddit for liking something you don't
A game neither of you have played
>>341361060
I hate yuropoor accents. I wont buy it for that alone. The Equilibrium ripoff story with Clockwork Orange ripoff styling actually seems kinda neat. But the Yuropoor accents are just gross. Had to mute the preview.
>>341361060
yeah alright, I'll give it a shotThey totally ripped the reality reveal off though.
>>341361060
This game is literally living in Sweden: the game
>>341363008
THEYRE TOTALLY DIFFERENT
The only argument against this game I've seen is half-assed comparisons to:
>Bioshock
>Various indiewares
>Dystopian books
>Lisa?
Lisa is the most retarded comparison I can think of. Literally a dark-as-night RPG about entirely different topics.
Will this game suck? Possibly.
Are any of these comparisons valid? No they're pretty fucking retarded, not to mention all the compared games are great.
>>341363180
are you new
oh yay, another walking simulator with funky cartoony aesthetics...
>>341363404
Nigga they're popping pills called Joy
Did you miss that detail
That's the only reason they're 'comparing it' to lias
>masterpeice
It can't even get colloquialisms right, no one in the UK says candy, when talking about the pinata she'd of said sweets instead
Looks neat, but the protagonist's inner monologue sounded forced, like the game was trying to tell us how deep and artistic it is. Also, no gameplay.
>>341361060
>all those posts comparing it to Bioshock
>>341362176
what are you talking about? even the pre alpha has more gameplay than any Cage's
all these shitheads talking nonsense about a game they never tried are probably nothing but a bunch of sonybuggers, sod off the lot of you
long live the Queen
>>341363621
It's set in the 50's and candy's been around as a term since the 1700's
>>341363489
You most definitely are
So a video game version of A Brave New World? Hopefully it will be interesting unlike the book.
>>341363803
This. Bioshock is a game, We Happy Few is a movie. At best.
>>341363842
American's call it candy, brits have always called it sweets. Go find an old British person and see if they call them sweets or candy
>but none about this game
>literally one up these past few days
>this game looks interesting
>did you take your joy?
>its like BNW
the most shilled game for E3 considering they showed zero gameplay but showed at PAX yet there wasn't a peep
>>341361972
its brave new world not 1984
>>341363581
I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart.
>>341364023
The term predates america mate
>>341361060
>procedural
It had so much potential
>>341361060
from the thumbnail that looked like Patrick waving
>>341361972
1984 has nothing to do with forced happiness, you dipshit. If anything, it's the opposite
>>341364037
there's another trailer where a news anchorman on tv starts directly talking to you
>>341364023
This game is obviously completely historically accurate and based on 100% true information, so that mistake really makes them look like shit.
>>341361060
>Can't read the paper at the start because the camera is showing us the guy on stage instead of the screen
God, I hate how often this happened this year. I don't give a shit about the guy with the controller, or the crowd, I just want to see the game
>>341364210
the overall attitude of the game is "everyone is happy"
1984 population was far more depressed
>>341361060
Why do they keep panning out to the guy playing?
>>341361972
But that sounds awesome
>>341364512
>>341364371
gotta prove they're playing 4 real
>>341364201
I see it. Fuck you.
>>341362407
I want to point out that five people in my theater during the sony conference last night all shouted "CONDEMNED THREE FUCK YEAH" when the mannequins popped up in the RE7 teaser.
Too bad condemned two turned into hobo punching DBZ. Such great potential.
>>341363835
this
go fucking play the alpha, plenty of gameplay in it
>>341364635
Agreed. Bear was a good sequence though.
>>341363871
"haha you are new"
great argument

You're an idiot.
That's clearly Oogie Boogie.
>it's not 1984 flavored system shock
Am I in the wrong hobby
>>341361901
>rougelike
>>341365202
It's way more Brave New World than 1984
(screams IT'S THE FUCKING PRISONER NOT BRAVE NEW WORLD)
>>341365453
(what)
>>341364392
It's been awhile since I've read it but I think you're generalising, we only ever really get Winston's outlook. 1984 is more about the dangers of an all-seeing, all-knowing body of power.
>>341365363
>it's not logans run flavored system shock
>>341365630
not him: it's a Brit tv series from the 60s
>>341361060
>calling this shit a roguelike
RRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
It's psuedo-intellectual bullshit designed for people who found "the cake is a lie" funny
>>341365870
no i mean why the (brackets)
>>341366061
Because it's ultimately a futile correction that nobody will pay attention to
they're called parenthesis you fuck
>Game shown at PAX was an early ass alpha that looked like shit and had almost no features that would be in the final version
>Game shown at E3 gave people the wrong message and now everyone and their mother thinks the game is a walking simulator
This has to be some of the worst fucking marketing.
>>341366351
doesn't explain a lot, but okay
>>341366632
Dangers of not actually having a publisher and going the kickstarter route
Desu I wish anyone that wanted to use roguelike as a tag was forced to play through Rogue, from start to goddamn fucking painful finish.
Wait, is it single player now? I thought it was going to be multiplayer and trying to find out the other players
One of if not the only game I'm somewhat hyped.
>>341364910
Just as good as yours
Fucking tryhard newfag
>>341366632
so, is this a walking simulator or not? is there some footage of gameplay somewhere?
>>341367964
No, it's a stealth survival game.
The gimmick is to survive you have to act like an NPC and if you do stuff a normal player character would normally do you will get attacked.
Also all deaths are permanent and the map randomly generates.
>>341367964
It's randomly generated survival but with a clear purpose (escape town)
The stuff they showed at E3 is basically gonna be a one time intro because the game starts right after it with you waking up in a bed in what's basically the ghetto
>>341368612
>The gimmick is to survive you have to act like an NPC
How do I act like an NPC?
>>341370174
repeat the same 3 lines every time you're asked something
No. It's garbage.
Just look at this shit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K5ol8_Bi-o
>>341370174
Walk don't run, Don't directly look at someone, do remedial tasks and patterns, don't have a weapon in hand, don't enter peoples houses, say hi to everyone you meet.
>>341370530
and be on the drug
It's not the most in depth system but I like it because it forces the player to try and accomplish their goals whilst acting in a way that makes that as hard as possible
>redpill: the game
social commentary?
>>341361060
That trailer looked really neat, but when I looked at what they'd put out last year the idea of it being a procedurally generated rogue like stealth game was disappointing
I hope they tighten it up or include prebuilt sequences that are in line with the latest trailer, because I love the style of the game and it would be a shame to see it all go to waste
>>341364162
This is the killer. A few cutscenes to make it look like the storytelling is on the level of Bioshock, but nothing after.
>>341371306
Confirmed that there are premade locations and events that give story info, including meeting up with the other player characters.
Backstory is cool too. The people had to do A Very Bad Thing to get rid of the Germans in ww2, and used Joy to amnesiate themselves so they wouldnt feel guilty. Now everyone is addicted and there's a famine.
>>341370471
A.I. looks fucked but hard to completely judge the game since the guy playing seems to have no fucking clue what he's doing or what's going on. Plus it's a Pre-Alhpa so still plenty of time to make changes.
>Double Rainbow
God fucking dammit.
>white faced people
>"joy" drug
>>341361972
It reminds me of A Clockwork Orange more than anything else
>>341372807
Just the officials seem to have the whiteface. Everyone else was just plain. You're purposefully searching for shit where there is none.
