Why is Wolverine wearing a leotard?

What in the gay Earth is that shite?

ETA: just saw this

The first vehicle segment was pretty bad. On rails motorcycle chase. They could have just kept that a cutscene. The interactive elements don't add much.

I tried to keep it on the road mostly but it was pretty easy for Logan to bounce around like pinball and there didn't seem to be any consequence for doing so.

Combat feels a little generic, but they tried to incorporate parrying and some mobility/dodging. I hope that there is some more enemy variety. So far it's mostly just Trask grunts of various shapes and sizes.

According to skill up's review, the appearance changes some, but the enemies are basically the same.

I hope he is wrong

I'm waiting for some good selling points

All we got has made me sad

All we got in this thread so far is one guy saying it's a not-as-good Spider-Man game. . .but still "fun"

I feel like some of the clips I've seen have been hyperbolic and overblown critiques, but it does just feel like a generic action game so far. I used to be a little more sensitive to culture war shite but I have started to care a little less with time. Too much grifting and too much negativity. I'm tired of that shite.

Nothing has made me raise an eyebrow yet in terms of "wokeness". Mad TV lady being unnecessarily added in as Callisto probably didn't need to happen, but she's par for the course at this point in terms of narratively driven 'cinematic' stuff especially for Sony studios.

I think the webslinging, open world, and traversal elements added quite a bit to spiderman and the lack of those elements in exchange for a linear experience with less mobility in the form of Logan's moveset exposed some flaws in current Insomniac design philosophy.

I'm not put off by anything yet, but a system seller this is not.

I have been trying to keep criticisms from "wokeness"

"Woke" isn't even a dealbreaker for me. A woke game can still be good, with effective writing.

Life is Strange 1 and BG3 prove that

Sony is not publishing any of their games to PC anymore, precisely because they are desperate for marks who will cave and buy their shite console for a couple of mid exclusive games.

I wonder how accurate this is. This does seem to be the basic gist of everyone promoting the game.

But they almost never say anything they like about the game other than "OMG graphics OMG"

Allegedly, they paid Kai Cenat to stream the game.

He played a few hours then said it was boring

I was curious if the inclusion of the Age of Apocalypse skin variant would lead to broken cutscenes. Of course it did:

Cutscene Fail

That should be embarrassing.

This is a great example of what's going on in the game industry with people working on games because it's a job, not because they love games (and thus are making something they would love to play over and over again).

That is the problem with more than just the games industry. One could argue that employers bare some blame in this mentality. I believe that they do, but as a millennial, I also feel that in general there is something fundamentally lacking in my generation and beyond.

This kind of seems like the perfect game to play like a week before GTA 6

Why soy up Wolverine?

It is like a leftist woman's fantasy. Violent and aggressive only when they would deem proper. Otherwise soft, submissive, emotionally open, cheerful, polite, and completely inoffensive.

Who prefers that Wolverine?

They could get an already soft X-man with a cool game-friendly power.

Shadowcat
Iceman
Gambit
Havok
Rogue
Psylocke
Longshot
Dazzler
Shatterstar

All soft and generally pleasant. None with any Alpha energy or traditional masculinity. All with cool powers that could play well in a game

Imagine Iceman's traversal in a Spider=Man 1 type world.
