Absolutely. I haven’t been following this game and I’d be thrilled if it was solid at launch, but we gotta keep CS:2 in mind.

A good man, this Ape.

I should play Skyrim again.

The issues sound patchable to a layman like myself. Embrace patient gaming and enjoy in a month or so.

You heard what he said. Fred.

True other games have had that, but it really wasn’t a goal for Elden Ring and I don’t think it really hinders it. The immersion into a real world was clearly a tentpole design decision for Rockstar in RDR2, but not Fromsoft. Which is fine for you to miss in Elden Ring, I just think we gotta manage expectations sometimes where not every game can have every thing.

I’m glad they’re showing more extended sections of gameplay. I was worried after the last few trailers featured mainly quick cuts between cutscenes and seemingly canned animations. This is shaping up to be promising despite the somewhat worrisome delays.

Maybe! I don’t think there’s a right answer until hindsight shows us how the game does. I can also imagine it has a lot to do with what the folks holding the money think will sell better, a sequel to a poorly received game, or a (potentially) lower risk remake?

The Bioware we knew and loved has been gone a long time. DA2 was hardly Bioware, let alone Inquisition.

To me it’s kinda the perfect game to remake (hopefully it IS remade and not just rereleased) because it had a lot of potential that it just did not live up to. A graphics and content pack would not improve the game much at all, because the let down was the gameplay and mechanics. If they can re-tool that, they may have a solid game here.

You’re right I forgot! I only remembered the headstone in the hunters dream just being there.

Closer to Bloodborne’s Amygdala, though it doesn’t take you to the DLC it does transport you somewhere else. But hey ER, BB, same difference.

I think it’s just a matter of trends and design theory. For a long time you couldn’t escape the orange/blue combo like in the Battlefield series artwork. Plus I don’t think all these titles really released at the “same” time.
