Why the hype for Ghost of Tsushima? Yet we hardly seen any gameplay...
- Thread starter Kliemie
- Start date
I find it odd and not in line with industry norms that we've seen so little gameplay so close to release, yeah. If I have any trust in the project it's because Sony are attached to it, not because of Sucker Punch.
Surely a greater history than doing the same genre for over 10 years. And don't get me wrong, i adore From.
...
this is by far the best thing I've seen of this game, wtf, why didn't we get trailers that show the game like this? Or did we and I'm missing something?
I think they will. You remember the E3 gameplay demo? That was a side quest.

Square = Light Attack
Triangle = Readies weapon aka draw your katana from the sheath. You can hold it and basically charge up a heavy attack or 1 hit counter attack as seen in the gameplay trailer.
L1 = Block and Parries
Circle = Dodge
I mean all of the trailers have shown the main character riding a horse. lol You can attack from it too. They revealed all this and more back in 2018 after the E3 gameplay trailer.
So here's the thing. People are acting like GoT is a no doubt sure fire hit because of this incredible pedigree. But let's not act like this is Naughty Dog, Insomniac or From.
Sucker Punch is a fine developer who make decent games, but IMO those other developers get a different degree of blind hype than SP.
edit: also I'm hyped for the game as well. But I thought, and I'm not alone in thinking this, that infamous was a mediocre game whose score was slightly inflated from being the first decent PS4 exclusive.
-Bushido Blade/Kengo style combat
-Very unique setting
-Open world exploration that is more focused about landmarks than a gps
-Really awesome graphics and art style
-Kurosawa inspiration
-Prototype ninja combat

There is no way this thread wasnt made in bad faith.
There are a lot of reasons for people's hype:
1. The game looks stunning, the art direction is one of the best I have ever seen
2. The developer behind the game is one of the best studios from SIE and their games are always fan favorites
3. The setting is something A LOT of people have been asking for quite some time, especially being a grounded and open world experience
4. We already had a 10+ minute gameplay demo from E3 2018 and it looked phenomenal
5. We are aproaching launch and Sucker Punch has already said we are getting a blow out of info and footage very soon and we just recently had an amazing story trailer

Yes, peopel believe the game is a sure thing because the game doenst need to be a 90+ to be good, that is why peopel trust Sucker Punch because in the end, they will get a fine game.
Might not be the best of the best, but will be good.
What about an 80 reads as barely scratching well received? There are plenty of games that have lesser scores than that, that are well received. An 80 is by NO MEANS considered NEARLY a bad game. Not even close.
lol what?
Since when were these games bad? They were well recieved and very well designed.
I think Sucker Punch is honestly better on average than Insomniac. (And I prefer them over From but From games just aren't really my thing)
Man, that TGA trailer was great, hahaha. This could end up being the next Horizon to me, a game I was convinced would be thoroughly mediocre before launch, but ended up buying on sale for no particular reason and falling in love with it.
This is the same narrative some people were trying to promote in regards to Guerrila Games before Horizon Zero Dawn release to unprecedent critical praise and commercial sucess.
This is by far their biggest game yet. It is their Horizon ZD moment. Sucker Punch has been pumping out highly rated games since last gen. They are not a mediocre studio.
I'm not targeting OP or anyone in particular, but it feels like there are some people who actively want people not to be excited for a game.
I do agree that we haven't seen enough gameplay but from what we've seen so far and from their past games it's sure to be a great game.

Infamous is a well loves AND successful franchise for them, along with Sly Cooper. Sure they may not be the tier of Naughty Dog but they do have a great history of making games that are fun and well received by fans and critics alike. Infamous 1 and 2 are among my favorite PS titles.
We're not gonna have any kind of supernatural enemy in this game, I imagine? I don't mind it storywise, even sounds cool to me, I'm just wondering about what kind of enemy variety we can expect.
Well, Sekiro did make us fight a regular ass bull on fire, so they could find a way.

Could've sworn I saw this before but maybe it was the no release date/info concern until there was a trailer the next day lol.
I honestly don't see a ton of hype for it even though the game looks amazing so far. Would love to see more gameplay but people trust sucker punch and don't think they should be doubted anyway.

Third person realistic cinematic action game is absolutely an under utlized setting for a Sony game.
The Sly trilogy has scores of 86, 88, and 84 respectively. The Infamous trilogy sits at 86, 84, and 80.
That's not great?
We're splitting hairs here. You think that means good/great. From my experience (including playing ISS) I think games getting scores like that especially in a launch window are usually overrated.
No it's meant to be more grounded. The CE even has a audio commentary track with the devs and a historian about being faithful to the setting.
Also always a good time to post more GoT gifs.
The game is supposed to be grounded.
That means we will probably have enemies like archers, enemies riding horses, tank like enemies and the usual. Maybe animals too?
Not a narrative. Just an opinion. I also didn't really care for HZD, though I recognize why plenty would love that game.
I wonder if knowing whats the attack and whats the block button increased the hype for somebody, lol.
Legit just wanna dive in and spend the rest of the year in this game. And I used to be more excited for Cyberpunk. lol
I think they will. You remember the E3 gameplay demo? That was a side quest.

yeah but idk if every sidequest in the game is actually going to be like that. i hope it is but i doubt it
Is it weird that you know how an AC game is going to play? 🤔
