I thought the music was just a case of an ill-suited licensed song being chosen for the trailer, but looks like it's an original song composed for the game Hope it isn't indicative of the rest of the music in the game. Anyway, this is apparently being developed by the studio that made Rayman Origins and Legends, both of which were fantastic! So I'm still hopeful that this is going to turn out well

That's not the Prince apparently. The game looks cool to me though. And I'm just glad the franchise is coming back in some form.

What part of it suggests that it's possible only on the PS5's SSD though? Not counting the marketing spiel from the blogpost.

I doubt Spidey's going to be gliding at mach speed in that game, man.

I mean we did have fast gliding in the Just Cause games too :/

Yeah, I really liked BotW, but I didn't adore it as much as many other folks did. TotK feels like it's on a whole different level. IGN was right in their review when they said that TotK makes BotW feel like the first draft of this formula.

It's real-time lol

No game is flawless. And I'm sure Elden Ring too has reviews where they don't go into its issues at all. It's probably because the reviewers felt the minor flaws these games have are negligible in the grand scheme of things. That's why we have so many different reviews to check and base our opinions on. It's pointless fixating on any particular one. Not sure which issues you're referring to here. But let me tell you, this is a game that most game developers in 2023 can't even dream of making.

I think it's because many of us are so used to games holding our hands and dictating how we have fun that we have forgotten how to have fun on our own. The kind of player freedom that these games offer can take a while to get used to. They give you a set of amazing tools and systems and let you loose in their sandbox. The sense of discovery and exploration that comes with it is incredible. It took a while for the gameplay loop to click for me as well. But once it did, it set a whole new benchmark for what open-world games need to be. This and Elden Ring really put most western developed open-world games to shame. All that said, TotK is much denser and a lot more fun than BotW. Would suggest giving it a fair shot over BotW. It really deserves all the high praise, man. It's an incredible f**king game!

Congrats man! A very satisfying platinum to get! It was my GOTY too until last week. It's been dethroned by Zelda now

Developer: Ubisoft Montréal Publisher: Ubisoft Platforms: PC, PS4, XBOX One, PS5, XBOX Series X Release Date: Holiday 2020 Genre: Action/Adventure, Open-World Details: The open world setting of England’s Dark Ages and Viking culture will also bring with it some key elements to Valhalla’s gameplay, perhaps most notably the Viking settlement Eivor is leading. The settlement is a key feature of the game. We want you to feel that this is your home, that you're building, that a lot of what you're doing in the game world is, at the end of the day, going to feed into the settlement so that it can grow, it can flourish. We have a ton of buildings that people can build. Each building comes with its own gameplay purpose. Valhalla will also update the combat that saw a major revision in Origins, introducing dual-wielding weaponry against a promised “greater variety of enemies than ever before.” In addition to playing Eivor as either male or female, players will also be able to customize Eivor’s hair, tattoos, clothing, war point, and gear. Meanwhile, choices will have to be made in the story, including dialogue choices and “political alliances” that will affect the world of Valhalla. The gear system has been revamped quite a lot to really push a balance between having great gameplay-oriented gear, but also the look that players can really customize the look of that gear. In terms of the grander choices, it comes down to the journey and the settlement, and what do you want to leave behind in the settlement and what kind of impact do you want to have on the people that you're trying to take care of? Specifically, he said the team is quite excited about what the reduced load times will allow for the new entry’s world. Advanced RPG mechanics allow you to shape the growth of your character and influence the world around you Sail from the harsh and mysterious shores of Norway to the beautiful but forbidding kingdoms of England and beyond. Dual-wield powerful weapons such as axes, swords and even shields to relive the ruthless fighting style of the Viking warriors. Launch massive assaults against Saxon troops and fortresses throughout England Construct and upgrade buildings that allow for deep customization, including a barracks, blacksmith, tattoo parlor, and more. You can actually quite dynamically go back to Norway anytime you want. And Norway is quite breathtaking. We have the four kingdoms within England, Wessex, Northumbria, East Anglia, Mercia. It's quite a large chunk of England.

You guys know the drill. Anything related to movies goes here. Original thread To start off, posting this sublime trailer from Wes Anderson's next. Feels like the guy's getting more and more confident in his vision. It's a thing of beauty *wipes a tear*
