Hey, folks.
This is basically going by our intuition, but you can bring up reasoning for why you feel a certain way about an upcoming game coming out this year, next year, or the year afterwards, and so on. Basically, what is your intuition and your knowledge of a certain upcoming game both telling you about how it'll turn out? Or how multiple games will turn out? Do you just have that special feeling that's telling you that a game, that may not be all that well-hyped, is going to blow everyone away?
For me, I would have to start first with Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. Yes, it's another Musou game but Musou games have been getting genuinely better on average by Koeti Tecmo and even their biggest dud, Dynasty Warriors 9, was a game that I enjoyed immensely. Plus, they have a lot of material from unused concepts of BOTW 1 that they can use for Hyrule Warriors, like Link's father and sister. Not to mention I really thought that the original Hyrule Warriors game was going to be a fan-favorite and it absolutely was. Again, I just have that "itch" that's telling me that this will be a good one and we're in good hands with Koei Tecmo.
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is another one. Even though I have yet to finish the original game (it's incredibly long) I'm enjoying it quite a lot. And I just have, again, that "good feeling" about this game given that the original developers struck good with their very first game. I really feel that that in itself inspires confidence. But more than that, I just find the setting to be interesting and it seems that they won't put a damper on their gameplay with any kingdom building, which was very much take-it-or-leave-it.
The Geneforge remake also seems like a good place to start with the Geneforge series as I'm currently really enjoying Avernum (the first one). But also, I just think that the setting is very interesting and so far the games that ResetEra has recommended me have been great so far.
Tunic also seems like a great Indie game and I always like games that take at least some inspiration from Zelda. Granted, it's been a while since I played a game like Darksiders but since I've had the time to get back into gaming (I went on a hiatus from playing video games for several years) I'm very much interested in seeing how the game unfolds. But this game is one that I know less about compared to the others. But suffice to say that when I saw it, I kinda thought that it was going to strike a really good vibe with a lot of people here.
I'll give some more, but I've just had a really good feeling about gaming overall, especially with next-gen just around the corner and especially now that I have a gaming laptop after not playing any video games for several years up until this summer.
What games do you have that "intuition" for, that you just "feel" will turn out good or even great?
