Then youre greeted with a cutscene which has a long load time if you skip it. Its an insanely easy fight which is made frustrating by bad design and I had to redo it 5 times.)
WHAT WENT RIGHT??
How come this game isn't getting shitposted to death with how bad it is?
But theres a million threads about "disappointments" like DaS3 which no one has even played yet?
>>333559560
I don't know as I'm not an Xbone owner, but sounds to me like you just want to shit on something else since others shat on something you like. Don't do that. Don't add to this problem.
>>333559560
It's not a Sony/Nintendo game so Microsoft isn't paying shills to campaign against it.
>>333559560
How many Xbone owners actually give a shit about this game?
So is it better than the order 1886?
>>333558474
>extremely short (10hrs)
At least is not 5
>>333559963
It has literally been the most hyped up and heavily marketed AAA Xbox exclusive for years now.
And suddenly the game comes out and 4chan is completely silent on the matter? Is it just because there are no memes to be had because the game is justifiably bad?
>>333558474
>>replayable once
what? does the game self destructs after you clear it twice?
>>333560310
There is no reason to play the game more than once after you've chosen both junction options and collected everything. First playthrough normal, second on hard.
Its linear, theres nothing to explore, and the experience is heavily based around the story elements.
There is no reason to play the game more than twice. Its not about the gameplay, it's about the "experience". Which is actually not well written enough to want to experience more than once. There are only a handful of short encounters which feel secondary to finding the next waypoint so you can advance the plot.
>>333560142
This game is basically Xbox's The Order, yes.
Fuck you, I like it.
>>333561338
I bet you think Gotham is a good TV show
>>333560643
>only a handful of short encounters
I'd tell you to play the game before you shitpost, but then it wouldn't be shitposting, would it?
>>333561567
Never seen it. I just enjoy fun games.
>>333560643
>This game is basically Xbox's The Order, yes.
except it isn't. and you'd know it if you played it.
It is narrative heavy, Sam Lake might be reincarnated Hideo Kojima, who died in the future, but his soul travelled back in time and got some writing ability in the process.
>>333561567
It is (or at least the first season, haven't watched more).
>>333560643
I have played both Quantum Break and The Order. This game is a fucking masterpiece compared to that trash. You know every game can't be the new TORtanic, right?
Life is Strange did time travel better
>>333560142
that game could have been so great. such a fucking let down.
>>333558474
wasn't there going to be a tv show in conjunction to the game?
what happened?
>>333563128
it is inside the game
>>333559560
>>333558474
I have not seen a single positive thread about it, or even a neutral thread with people discussing it.
100% of the threads have been saying its bad.
So I guess your answer is its not an entertaining game but someone has a hard on for hating it.
>>333560303
No, it's because the game is what anyone who has played previous Remedy games expected from it.
Unlike overhyped trash, QB at least delivers on everything it set out to do without fucking up and without attracting people who don't give a shit about Remedy's games, either.
>>333558474
>there were people who claimed this game alone was worth the purchase of an xbone
At least the graphics aren't terrible
>>333563509
There's hardly any Xbone owners here and all the everyone with a PC is shitting on it for the bad port a la Arkham Knight.
As someone who played it on the Xbone, it's a fun game with a few technical hiccups. It crashed on me once and a cutscene bugged out, but otherwise the core gameplay is great.

>>333563845
How do I know you didn't just find that pic online? Post a timestamp and your dick to prove it's really you.
Nobody actually gave much of a shit, but when it came out worst fears were verified
Sam Lake hasn't made a good game since Max Payne.
Max: replayable, harder difficulty modes make the game harder because bullets hurt like a motherfucker and Max really is living on painkillers and mullet time adrenaline
Alan Wake: replayable, in that you can get get coffee mugs and pages you missed. harder difficulty makes you hold the flashlight on enemies longer which only makes the game more TEDIOUS and SLOW
Quantum Break: something he wrote while watching Heroes. Like, the bad second season when the writers went on strike.

Don't listen to these faggots. It's pretty damn fun.
>>333564752
congrats on the 2 cents deposited in your account
>>333559963
I bought it and beat it already, I had fun and it was $48 on Amazon prime
gonna start my second playthrough tomorrow
>>333565031
WHAT THE FUCK
>>333565031
>>333559560
because the game is actually pretty good. Probably not $60 dollar good but still good nonetheless.
I know a couple people who buy practically every semi major release on Xbone, so I'm just going to wait for their opinion. Now is the worst time to get a consensus from the internet, after a month or so passes it's easier for people to look at things more objectively.
>>333558474
I don't care about any of that. I'm such a meme loving retard that I'm going to buy this just so I can quote the plane scene while I play as CIA.
>>333565031
Oh wait you were implying that guy was a shill
I just got a notification right before your post that a CSGO crate sold on Steam and I earned $0.02 so I thought you were spying on me
>>333565272
I just made the connection that the villain is CIA. This game just took a weird turn in my head.
>>333565272
You don't "play" as CIA
You walk a short distance to an item and select which path you want the story to take. That's all you do when you control Aiden Gillen
>>333559886

Xbot owners come out in around about 3-4 hours and hang around for a few hours talking about how great halo is
However shitty the plot of this game is, it can't be any worse than the Order's
It's bad when the sub-par cover-shooting is the most entertaining part of the movie
>>333564543
>throws drawn out filler fights with 20 enemies at you
>>333564005
>>333564125
Ali this xbot defense, you guys are normally so quiet but insult your only exclusive in months and you all come running out to rage and show that you are stupid enough to buy the xbone.
>>333565861
If I take that mask off would he die?
>>333566239
>>333566294
no, but it would be quite painful
>he's in pain without the mask but doesn't die without it
>>333564543
So at one point you get 4x the amount of enemies? Well excuse me while I go buy this goty
>>333566175
>when the sub-par cover-shooting is the most entertaining part of the movie
But that describes Quantum break perfectly.
As a time travel story it's awful, and I am a huge fan of movies like Timecrimes, Primer, Groundhog Day, etc
>>333566461
But Quantum Break isn't even a cover shooter in the first place.
Most you ever fight at once is like
>2 Heavies
>4 Chrono soldiers
>6 regular enimes
>2 snipers
wew lad
>>333558556
It can't be worse than the Sauron final boss QTE in Shadows of Middle-Earth yo.
>>333566547
It is?
There are chest high walls in every area that you walk up to and automatically take cover behind when you aren't shooting or using an ability.
Are you retarded?
>>333566547
it has a cover system but you're not encouraged to hide behind cover non-stop like in Uncharted or Gears
I would be a lot more into this game if the gun play wasn't so clunky, it just makes the few times you actually do get to play feel like a chore
>>333558474
>>DLC/sequel cliffhanger
NOPE
Not even going to bother watching a stream of this shit fuck Remedy
>>333566776
I really don't like people like you
>>333566803
More like you don't need to because you can just use time shield to automatically become invincible and regen health anytime you're in danger
So it's either a cover shooter with bad game design or a non-cover shooter with bad level design
>>333563531
>No, it's because the game is what anyone who has played previous Remedy games expected from it.
Fuck you, seriously. The "game" isn't even better than the first Max Payne.
>>333558474
>shit talking a game because it's obviously never ever
just ignore it sonygger, next movie is coming to your plebstation soon.
>>333567017
I agree that the health system sucks but otherwise it is superior mechanically to Alan Wake.
I would be happier if it had something like pills in Max Payne for health instead.
>>333566857
The after credits cutscene brings up a junction (same visual effects) where you would normally make a choice and branch the story, except it doesn't actually bring up the choice and just ends in an ominous "to be continued" way.
Given how much is still at stake in the story and that they are clearly advertising an Alan Wake sequel to be announced soon from easter eggs within the game, I'm almost positive it will be paid DLC.
>>333566916
Should I try this game again?
I played it for like 3 hours years ago, I think it was fun. Is it?
>>333558474
>trying to convince people to not buy a game with aidan gillen in it
dumb hotheads
>>333567392
I pre-ordered the game because Aiden Gillen was in it.
I'm trying to convince people to not fall for the meme like I did.
>>333566461
I actually like the story. All the Beth stuff at the end was pretty neat. It wasn't anything earth shattering, but it's top tier for a AAA action game.
>>333567369
Vanquish? Yes. But don't play it as a cover shooter. Slide around, punch 4 meter robots in the face, dive forward in bullet time, have fun.
It's short and light hearted.
>>333558474
The same thing happened with Sunset Overdrive.

Agreed, it's not the best time travel story ever in any medium but as a whole I felt like the characters and writing were better than most AAA games.
Made me regret my Xbone purchase a little bit less.

>>333568635
Where was that? I must have missed it.
>>333568882
There's nothing new under the sun. It's the sum of the parts that make a story unique. QB put those parts together pretty well.
>>333568882
All of them have better writing than Quantum Break which says just how bad it is and how youre only biased against weeb shit because its "cute and for kids"
So is this game is basically the Order 1886 of Xbox?

>>333569370
he mentioned more titles but you specifically targeted those anon, that makes your claim biased
and yes that has been done to death as well. so no point in going ape shit over something so trivial
>>333569247
no, it's a lot better than The Order. It's not nearly as good as Bloodborne but it's still a decent game and a good addition to the Xbone library.
>>333569515

This is a much better comparison. Both games also had a good setting with potential but neither developer actually knows the first thing about game design.
>>333559560
Shitposting about DaS3 whips /v/'s autism into a frenzy. No one really feels passionate enough about Quantum Break to get that kind of reaction from either side yet.
It doesn't even have a juvenile nickname yet. The shitposters just don't have their heart in it.
>>333559560
because it's actually a fun game, like everything remedy does. ops points are pretty shit. like op running into the death ray during the final boss. the camera points you towards the blast so you know where it's coming from and can go the other direction. he just sounds shit at the game tbqh
>>333570292

>>333566776

It's not multiplatform so those who are invested in their platform PC and Xbox especially, are going to hype it up regardless of it's quality.
The only benefit of games going true multiplat is that you've actually get completely unbiased views on the game. MGSV is a great example, you can literally pick apart who's new to the series and who isn't by their opinions.
It's just a silly thing to glorify a shit game in any circumstance though, you're sending the wrong message to the developers and building a path for more mediocre games like it to come in the future.
>>333560643
>This game is basically Xbox's The Order, yes.
Uh, no it fucking isnt.
Its not exactly a groundbreaking game but its not the fucking pig with lipstick The Order was, at least the gameplay in QB is fun and polished.

Only about 1/3 of the things you listed are true. It's a fairly good game, it deserves the 7.5/10 that it has been getting.
