Re: E3 2017
It's time to move on from the following tropes:
1) Zombies
2) Unrealistic stealth and/or brain-dead, deaf, peripheral-unaware AI
3) VR
4) Melancholy cover versions of 80s pop songs to set the mood
5) Quicktime events
6) Lists

Re: E3 2017
For me, BG&E was a PG game... one I could play with my kids and after watching the trailer for BG&E2... wow, I was cringing at every curse word. Does UbiSoft think that since the audince is older (since they took so long to make the sequel) they've got to pull stuff like this just to get folks to buy it? Darn shame.
Flame away.

In film, PG-13 gets you one f-bomb. T should be pretty similar. I'm with Goldberg, the constant use of "fuck" was the first thing that stood out to me. The first game was a wholesome game with a great female protagonist. All the f-bombs on this were unnecessary.
Then again maybe that's Ancel getting some agression out on a 14 year development hell game.
1. meh. Skip 'em then. Days Gone looks pretty cool to me.
2. I hate stealth so I, for one, am more than open to dumb AI in stealth sections in games that don't need or shouldn't have stealth to begin with.

So uh, Crackdown 3 huh. Fool me once... once the trailer gets past that god awful Terry Crewes nonsense, it starts looking decent... but I bought and played Crackdown 2, which was a steaming pile of cow manure. I want this to be good, but I can't see myself buying it on day one. They're going to need a bunch of glowing reviews to get me to even buy it on the cheap.

It's not your creation. Who are you to say they're unnecessary?

Re: E3 2017
If you can lift them from the script and still accomplish the same tone then they are unnecessary. There is nothing in that trailer that suggests that any of them are needed.
Someone should ask Ancel about it because it is a curious design choice.
After 10 years in development, anything is welcome.

Re: E3 2017
No reason. I was just on a roll of hating on things.
All these games are looking exactly the same and I blame, in general, the dumb AI which is offset by hordes of "straight at ya" bad guys. Zombies are just the default version of this. It's so boring and uninspired. It would be different if the humans were more aware when you tripped their perimeter alarm system or could see beyond 3 yards around them.

Okay, in that one game, they're more of a weapon than a threat. But just because some game figured out a way to "28 Days Later" them doesn't mean they're not completely played out.

Heh, my dislikes as of late are:
1) FPS
That's it really, I'm just tired of an entire type of gameplay.

*I reserve the right to enjoy Borderlands 3, Days Gone and Far Cry 5 though.
