Kotaku: Gears 5 Developer Says It’s Riskier Than The Last One

thats not what i said.
i said how "holding out until x things happens" doesnt make sense?
when half gears of war 1 is waiting for jack to rip a fucking door.
That's not at all what I'm implying, and I think you might have taken my post on face value. Based off what Rod has said so far, allowing for more player choice and wider open areas is akin to at least one element that God of War switched up with its formula.
Designing a pseudo open world to push actual exploration and discovery in the series was certainly a significant factor in God of War feeling different. It obviously wasn't the only factor. God of War 2018 would have felt very different if it was completely linear like games prior. Cory and crew said as much, and anyone can rationally understand that.
If you disagree then, well, that's that I guess.
God damnit health bars above the enemies? Seriously? Why does every game have this now. Nothing takes me out of a shooter quicker than when a health bar pops up above an enemies head. Far cry new dawn had them to and it helped to make the combat fee totally weightless, just like the divisions.
I feel like Rod says this every week.
But why keep the campaign so hidden until the last minute :(
Show, don't tell. Which is my message to the Xbox team in general tbh.

For me the issue was the original trilogy had a compelling story arc that concluded. Gears 4 did not kick it off in the same way.
I have 4 and played a good bit of Horde Mode but the main character just does not look or sound interesting. Gears is one of the few series where I really enjoyed the characters (Never cared about the plot, kind of like askewverse Kevin Smith movies). I only hear people talk about meeting the old characters in this game. Do any of you have any fond memories about the new characters from Gears 4? I just remember how flat the new characters that they added for Gears 3 turned out to be, as much as I wanted to love sam.
Damn, didn't think people felt this way about Gears lol.
I'm looking forward to experiencing Gears in a more open fashion with single player. Was E3 2019 disappointing? Sure. I'm over it, honestly. I trust TC to deliver a polished experience from start to finish.

Ya if you don't like the CQC of the gnasher in Gears then don't beg for somthing different because we all know you're only going to play the SP and never touch the MP. Changing the game to satisfy people who only play this game for 10 hours is bad news.
Gears 4 was the first Gears game I didn't complete more than once. Started a second play through and just couldn't be bothered.
So yes, bring on the changes!!

Not loving the health bars and really not loving the control changes. I hope that stuff can all be tweaked.
Waiting for Jack to rip a door makes more sense than earning currency while you fight off a horde and a timer that tells you when they're coming. You obviously love those parts, but I don't and that's okay. We can have a different opinion!
you dont even earn currency on those parts.
the builder has a set energy pool for every wave.
i still dont understand how "it doesnt make sense"
Really curious to see what changes they make for versus. The chainsaw button change is going to take some getting used to for sure.
You might be surprised which game won last year or the one before it.
But no let me throw my baseless insult at cinematics because how dare they put that in my video game.
Great. Looking forward to it.
I really can't wait to see how they tackle the controls for the new vehicle (The Skiff). I hope it's very intuitive.
I completely disagree. The only improvements that need to be made are in encounter design.
Gears has the best third person gameplay loop other than MGSV. They absolutely had 'play it safe' gameplay-wise since that's what most of us serious Gears vets wanted after the shitshow that was Judgement.
It was true. Now, in the world of Max Payne 3, MGSV, Uncharted 4... that's not true at all. It's time to change the formula
I disagree with Max Payne 3 and I also played that game with a mouse. Honestly, Max Payne 3 isn't better than the Gears games that came out in the same generation (Gears 2 and 3 both say hi).
I can't speak to MGSV or Mac Payne. Never finished em. However UC4, the worst part for me is when they throw a bunch of guys at you and you run from cover to cover. I really enjoyed the game but whenever I'm shooting for awhile that's the worst aspect of it.
It's possible sure but from what I've played of Gears 4 (about an hour after you get to Marcus' house) I really have little hope.
