RAGE 2 Launch Trailer
- Thread starter AgentStrange
- Start date
Such a great trailer. After recently playing Sekiro, Red Dead 2, Nier Automata, Inside... Rage 2 looks like exactly what I need right now. Turn off my brain and have some great stupid fun. Day one.
Tuesday can't get here soon enough, find out if i'm having a boy or girl on Sunday, then Rage 2 on Tuesday. Going to be a great week!
thank you! I'm ridiculously excited (for both of course)!!
There's some Mass Effect biotics vibes in there.
Also, it's one of Best Buy's $10 rewards games.

the extent to which this marketing campaign has managed to put me off a game I should, by all appearances, be at least somewhat excited for, is really quite remarkable.
like, it's mostly the shitty late-2000s sexism of almost completely ignoring the fact that you can play as a woman that's doing it, but even outside of that, the whole 'tude in these trailers narrated by ranger-bro fuckin sucks.

The gameplay looks great but the aesthetics kinda bore me. Looks like the similar zany post-apocalyptic style that FC New Dawn, Borderlands, etc have. Ill probably still pick it up though.
Wow, that's certainly a trailer to grab people's attention. Think Bethesda have hit exactly the right tone, just need to spam that trailer in as many places as possible and I'm certain they'll have a hit.

The marketing for this game has been incredibly consistent — and to me — very effective. I usually spurn these kinds of ultra "meta" video game trailers, but here, I find the editing style and absolute deranged gameplay to work so well together.
I hope to Christ this game is good. It's hitting the right notes for me so far.

Probably the best ending ever to a trailer.
And on the PlayStation channel it's a PS3 at the end đź‘Ś

you know, it is meant to not be taken seriously and it knows that...the marketing might have thought that it does not really matter if you play as man, woman or an alien in this game and focused more on hilarious stuff and the action. and this is ok.
Between the Walmart leak and the Rage 1 ending, I love how self-aware and meta the marketing for Rage 2 has been. Not to mention how awesome and bombastic the gameplay looks. I've had a good feeling about this one ever since it was revealed, Bethesda has been on a roll in terms of fantastic single player games this gen.
I have no hype for this game, but it looks like it COULD be great. COULD be.... I played the first one through. It was alright, i guess.... If the reviews come out positive I'm back on board. Fingers crossed :)
"Lame ending"
"Thanks Walmart Canada"
But a cat licking a lollipop giving birth to the earth? Had no idea.

if the marketing thinks it doesn't really matter... why has every trailer featured the male protagonist, near-exclusively? 'cause that's a heck of a coincidence, gotta say.
Sure would of have been nice to see the female protagonist in the marketing Bethesda. I didn't even know who voiced her till I looked at the Rage 2 livestream.
Funny thing is the devs on the stream couldn't even remember who voiced her but they remembered the male voice actor just fine. Someone offscreen had to tell them.

Who voices her? I'm really curious. Been crossing my fingers for Laura Bailey.
Is it just me or can anybody find a non-white npc (questgiver, important person) ?
I really liked the trailer and preordered the game but i find it strange that out of many "important" npcs every single one is white.
That can't be true for the whole game can it?
