I know people on Era like to hate on AC, but Origins and Odyssey both allow you to free climb on anything. The only thing that BOTW has over them in that regard is the level of traversal you get from the glider.
Yeah I think I used my travellers outfit like 95% of the time to clear map fog. I only switched armors for boss fights which luckily you can do while fighting.
Is this game just messed up in terms of contrast or do I have some settings wrong? There are moments in the initial sequence where you're sneaking through a town at night where it legitimately felt like I could barely see things. My picture's set to Limited/Low and I'm using an LG C9 with fairly 'optimised' settings yet it seems to be way overblown.
I had the same exact problem. Even fiddling around with the settings never really fixed it for me.
It seems they only lipsynced one spoken language and picking Samurai Cinema ( what a a name ) it's really off, I believe even more so than usual in other games for some reason. It's like one of those Jackie Chan movies but with Japanese dubs instead of English ones.
Lol
Also, man, there's a rather thick layer of jank on the combat, at least when playing on hard. I dunno why they tought having fights on cliffs was a good idea, when combat breaks when there's difference in elevation
Austin on Waypoint Radio was saying the same thing. Said he would wear the Travellers outfit until he got to a fight. Would switch out then put the travellers outfit straight back on.
I'm a serial map clearing addict so I assume I'm gonna be the same.
I think you'll find most people in the world do not, in fact, live in the United States of America.
It launched 11 hours ago in Australia for instance.
Is it just me or is the Home Cinema audio setting and every other setting just 2.0 Stereo? I'm getting no Rear Audio.
Haha yeah I'm one too and just playing that way basically put me around 95% towards the platinum at the end of the game.
If you told me this was an Assassin's Creed game I'd believe you. It even has janky traversal issues that are nearly exactly the same as assassin's creed. Game is funky when it comes to edges of ledges, and in tight environments, game gets cofnused aobut what you are tring to do.
Here's early clip of me... just trying to go down a ladder:
This is exactl the same kinda shit we've been dealing since like, AC3 at least.

Okay everyone saying this game is easy, well I think we should stipulate that sentence that it becomes easy after doing some story missions. Trying to clear camps before doing any of the missions is much harder. Wandered into a god damn duel before I even got a "level".
Lots of fun though.

That's a yes for me but tlou 2 didn't put my ps4 in wind tunnel mode, so hopping for the same.
So close, a few hours to go.
Wonder how long my body will last this late, it's been over a decade since I stayed up for a midnight release.

So is there a general opinion on whether it's worth playing it with the Japanese VO? Is it better to just go English since they didn't even bother to lip sync it to the Japanese VO?
I would have liked to have played it in Japanese but I know the lipsync not matching up for the entire game is gonna be an eye sore.

Played three hours straight. Having a lot of fun with this so far. My main complaint is that targetting specific enemies during battle can be strangely awkward.
The early game can be kinda hard if you get into a fight with an enemy leader with barely any upgrades, one of them would take out 3/4 of my health bar in one strike.

This video really shows how bad the AI is. It is like each enemy has a pre-assigned pecking order and only one of them fully engages in attack at a time. One other AI make take a swipe, but it would of been great if the AI worked together to take on the player. Still looking forward to tomorrow to get the game...but this kind of bugs me.
Huh. Weird, then. Maybe it's an artistic choice or an issue with the game's HDR implementation
I am going to keep to normal no telling how hard it gets later, someone even mention that.
I was actually surprised that other reviewers didn't encounter this issue. It's especially apparent when walking into buildings and at times it was just crazy dark. I just made it into an inside joke that lanterns back then really were crap.
Bummed there's no audio profile for the platinum headset. Been pretty disappointed in how infrequently first party studios have been having one for their game
'There's a universal 3D headphone setting that's a much better of doing it than locking it behind their own headsets like they do for a lot of their first party games.
I've founded the Uncharted 4 profile has been excellent in most instances. If that helps.
Oh for sure, I've gone on my scooter before so they'll either have a line outside and bring it to you or let you just bring your bike in to the customer service counter. I've done both.
Since I got disc copy I have to wait of course.
Could be low priority right now
Does no one know if we can change the time of day? I hate playing during nighttime in pretty much any open world games, especially when the biomes are so varied and colorful. :(
Agreed. Say what you will but both recent AC games let you go anywhere you want.
Played up to the moment you do your first assassination and calling it a night. Love the aesthetics and characters so far. My only downside so far is that the combat camera should have had a lock on option.
