IGN: 44 Minutes of Grounded Single-Player Gameplay (With Commentary)
- Thread starter litebrite
- Start date
This game went from completely no interest at reveal to curious and will play after yesterday's re-reveal. I like how they've built in story elements to an online game. Seems like a neat experiment. One thing Obsidian's people know how to do is write good narratives.
The environmental and first-person weapon graphics are smooth. Having this available in preview and allowing the community to shape the game and narrative is pretty awesome. Good to see Xbox Game Studios be in a position to utilize Game Preview.
I haven't watched this yet but I have to say that I find it really refreshing that the Youtube comments on the video are all extremely positive, something that almost never happens with gaming videos on Youtube and in general has not really been a thing with this game in general.
I really think this game could really be a big hit especially when Series X and Lockhart come out as a solid family friendly first party co-op game that anybody can enjoy

Agree. I believe Microsoft has under-used the preview program. I like seeing games developed hand in hand with the community. By putting a game in Preview, it sets better expectations with customers.
From a gameplay side of things this looks like pre-alpha. Otherwise when they further give the game some more time to add the dynamic weather that for example could affect the word/gameplay or make it a bit more action orientated and revamp the current very basic gameplay loop it could be a fun game primary for younger audiances.
My dream game, a Honey I Shrunk The Kids survival game. It looks amazing. I also think they nailed the art style, it looks like an animated movie.
No offense, but that is one of those criticisms that doesn't really say much, I feel? It's a setting that you rarely ever see used in games, with a more casual and friendly take on what is usually a very hardcore and unforgiving genre. Doesn't sound so bad, no?
100%! Adding a game to preview is a positive not a negative.
Really?
How so? Whens the last time we had this setting for a game.
And if you mean the genre even then its still not exactly a copy-paste genre we have millions of titles available.
What are ya talking about? There's dozens of open world games with backyards!/s
bug smoothies, huh?
I think it looks pretty nice and hope you'll be able to avoid the big red mid-screen "wrong tool for harvest" prompt. I'm also curious if and how they are going to vary/expand the explorable world. Hopefully there's enough variety from the get-go
also lol at that Dark Souls death screen

Microsoft's new approach to games theoretically should be quite good for EA titles. I'm glad they're exploring that a bit.
Have they showed or said if there are going to be mammals? Because how do you even survive if a shrew wants to eat you?
I really like the unique setting and the end game of trying to navigate through your own back yard just to get back to your own home! Seems really cool to me.
I just wish it wasn't Early Access etc. I'll just patiently wait until the final release I guess.

Bleeding Edge. . .? I mean maybe Sea of Thieves and if I'm really far from my TV Fortnite. Bleeding Edge though. . .
I mean it's supposed to look cartoonish :P Not everything is gonna be UC or GOW
How weird...for me it's my biggest turn off. I really hate the art direction of the game. My wife yesterday while watching this actually said ew, this game is really ugly.
Ooo. I was lukewarm on it when they revealed it but after watching the video, I'm liking it more and more.
I like the "Honey, I shrunk the kids" motif.

That's what I plan on doing, waiting until final release. I'm not really into survival games, but this looks interesting enough that I plan on trying it, and I want to make sure I get the best impression as possible.
That question at 2:42 lol. Hadn't really looked at the game previously, seems neat though it's kinda just meeting all my expectations of what a survival game does, also weirdly getting some The Forest vibes from the way it seems to play.
I was going to ask what you meant by 'uninspired' Then I saw your post history.
Warz never ends, it seems.
i'm... actually interested in this? not typically into survival games but i love the setting. i'll be willing to give it a go when the full release comes
