Ghostwire: Tokyo - 18 Minutes of Gameplay
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
it has to have multiple modes, right? the gameplay demo a few weeks ago was switching between solid 60, 40-50ish and locked 30 fps. the trailer yesterday was solid 30 fps, ign demo is 30 fps.
The good news is that the setting looks incredible. This might be the best portrayal of Tokyo we've seen in games and the spooky vibes are heavy without being horror. I'm sure it will be super cool to explore.
Can't say I'm sold on the gameplay experience though. Does combat feel good? Is exploration rewarding? Is there more to do or is it full of open world cliches? I wish there was a playable demo.
I'll probably just grab Kirby that day and maybe wait for gamepass on this.

Enemies look anemic and there doesn't seem to be any music.
Also I'm kinda sad that the radio signal mechanic from The Evil Within 2 is back but this time as a dead space style gps system. Why not just have directions for mission objectives instead? It's a single city after all.

Can say that about a lot of games that most of us play in English. For example, I'd love to play the Metro games in the original Russian, but I miss way too much background talking that it's not worth it for me.
Every time I see more of this I can't get "why the hell isn't this a PSVR2 game?!?!" out of my head. The pace, visual pop, the magic combat gestures, the bow, the way the player character flies slowly through the sky and that VResque vignette surrounds the screen (lol why)... The aesthetic is so interesting and those reflections and stuff my God but it just doesn't look that engaging to play. I want to be in this game more than I want to play it.
Hopefully it reviews well but as it stands I think I'm more excited for the other two March 25 releases.

PS5 or PC, hmmm...
$53 on PSN for preorder, $47 on PC right now (which may still drop in price before launch)

Weirdly laid back for a paranormal action game. I was excited for this based on the pedigree, but it doesn't actually look very good. Enemies weren't doing anything and there were barely any of them. If you wanna make a game where most of the enemies only do melee attacks then you need to find a way for them to put some pressure on the player. Two-three enemies slowly walking in circles while you spam charge attacks is not it.
I'm still not sure if there's any form of pushback in this combat system. Can you use any elemental power against any enemy and easily dispatch them or do you need to be specific? Do the enemies have countermeasures for your attacks? How much is mobility a factor?
Game looks great, was one of the titles I was into from rip on the PS5 announcement. I wonder if the Raytracing is expanded in the PC version or if it's just Raytracing + a high framerate.
Bummed it's Sub Only though. Yeah Yeah, blah blah authenticity, whatever. I've played and watched plenty of Japan-located works in English before.

im pretty sure there's an english dub for this game. one of the trailers had english va.
Oh, word? I don't recall since the only trailers I remember were relatively recent with the JP Audio, but I'll do some perusing. Big if true.
Looks like fun, but I need the enemies to be more aggressive. Everyone is pretty much just standing around in the video. Maybe these are just the weaker enemies in the game and as you progress it gets harder.
To the user who argued with me about the low sound effects from the reveal a month or so ago. I told you so! This game looks and sounds great!
Thank you for narrowing that down for me! I have fond memories of playing that on my Dreamcast a lifetime ago and when I saw these gameplay clips it immediately reminded me of something but I couldn't put my finger on it.
This looks so good. I'm going PC for the lower price and hopefully better performance, especially with RT on.
Yeah there's definitely English audio. Two of the English voice actors for Genshin characters are doing the main protagonist and his sister's voices.
Here's the VA that voices Akito
The game looks really cool and I'm a huge fan of The Evil Within 2 so I am for sure getting this game but not feeling a need to buy it immediately. Gonna go with Kirby as a relaxing game as I continue working through Elden Ring and maybe get Ghostwire: Tokyo this summer since it's looking pretty light especially compared to February and March of this year.
I do wonder if they tuned down aggressiveness for the enemies for this video. I'm sure there will be difficulty settings
That description seems like it was written with its purpose to be weeb porn.
You want to equip some watermelon?
I was thinking the same thing. I came here to post I hope this is being played on easy/story mode because some of the enemies just back up while being attacked.

Love the lighting and the hand animations look so unique looking forward to playing this very much.
The plot is that the entire population of Tokyo has vanished. In the visual novel prequel there was a supporting cast, though, so it's unclear
Very hard to gauge the enjoyment of the loop just by videos for this one. If nothing else this looks 100% unique to what's on the AAA market.
Huh, didn't know there was some pre-release stuff out already. And it's available on Steam! Nice.
Ok yea, the only gameplay footage I've seen so far is the original announcement footage but wasn't really sold on it. 45 seconds into this video and seeing the 'backstab' and resulting particle effects...yea I I'm sold, just looks cool af
