it is square enix's fault hitman had such terrible marketing and bizarre sales strategy though. could've sold a lot more if there wasn't such a negative buzz around the game because of the episodic, always-online shit.
By WoodenPapangu Go To PostPretty much. IO is fucking huge, and produces very little and sells even less.I couldn't even bring myself up to pay £10 for it.
Latest Deus Ex was very disappointing as well.

Sure. But a publisher rarely blames themselves for this.
On top of that Hitman was never a fantastic seller, not even with lots of positive vibes around it. Blood money eventually managed to sell 2 mil, after having been released for 5 years. But that's not exactly the fantastic selling franchise they wanted, even if it's decent. At least not from such a big developer. Absolution ended up selling 3.6 mil and was still not living up to sales expectations. :lol
This was always their last go at it, and I guess that's also why they were forced to make it episodic.
By Fergie Go To PostYou're welcome to m8. Need deadly finishers.
By Kidjr Go To PostI know I said it last season, but legit going to follow napoli this season for enjoyment, following juve would just seem like bandwagoningWelcome to the Abyss, lad.
Love the new Deus Ex, though I would have preferred more places to go to, even though I cant argue they really did pack their worlds well.
On Hitman's sales strategy, was it SE's idea or IO?
Keep thinking it's IO's though, since it was a pretty left field strategy when it was first announced.

I already learned my lesson on the first Destiny.
Not wasting my money on the same shit again.
I'll pass.

Life Is Strange is fucking awesome. Can't wait for the new game.
Max works best without the sexual relationships, I reckon. Chloe relationship is cheesy and the one with Warren is even worse.

Yeah, I'm not gonna get Destiny 2 but it looks like their fans love it. Know a lot here feel the same way, indifference.
Truly the Real Madrid of first person shooters.

By FortuneFaded Go To PostNeed a *couple of deadly finishers.
By Marston Go To PostDestiny 2 looks…underwhelming. I put a decent amount of time into the first one too.
I put hundreds of hours on it.
And the new game looks like the same shit. Small number of locations to explore, same classes, same races, pvp with 4x4, dlc'd as fuck for the future.
I'm out.
By Pele.gif Go To PostI put hundreds of hours on it.Did you play with friends or did you solo?

How many raids did you complete?
By Ushojax Go To Postlol Sissoko is starting tonight
It's finally safe to put him in the shop window
By Pele.gif Go To PostI put hundreds of hours on it.tbf the locations do seem to be significantly bigger this time

I always played Destiny with friends. I completed every raid till the first season pass dlc that i bought before the game launched.
It is fun, but it gets extremely repetitive over time. This looks to be on the same road.
People give Microsoft shit, but if they would have prevented Destiny and Mass Effect Andromeda
I guarantee it
@Kyoufu
I guarantee it
@Kyoufu
By Perfect Blue Go To PostBold also hyped up No Man's Sky.No Man's Sky was overhyped and shallow - its improved, but thats not saying much.

But, seriously, if you guys want to consistently play together and have bantering good times, Destiny is your game. Stop sleeping on it, you are missing out - especially raids.
I would pay good money to watch Cola, Hitch, Hixx, GQ, N8 and Ninja tackle a raid blind.

Well Bungie left them because of Destiny, wasnt it?
By Pele.gif Go To PostI always played Destiny with friends. I completed every raid till the first season pass dlc that i bought before the game launched.The first seasons pass - The Dark Below is from 2014. Everything has been revamped and brought up to Light level 400. There are 4 raids now -

The Vault of Glass
Crota's End
King's Fall
Wrath of theMachine.
Not sure how many of those you've done.

The first 2.
I saw someone earlier mention that they heard the PS4 and PC will share saves. No clue if true but would be neat.
By Killer7 Go To PostHitch you getting Destiny 2??Course not
Only finished the first one cos I didn't realise you weren't enjoying it either. We were like a married couple staying together for the sake of a kid we fucking hated anyway, and would rather have been disowned.
LIFE IS STRANGE THO
By Bungie Go To PostEvery game should have text chatnot sure why single players games should, but sure.
By NinjaFridge Go To PostWhat a save!Okay.
What a save!
What a save!
By Hitch Go To PostCourse notChloe sucks

By Perfect Blue Go To PostChloe sucksYou suck.
By Bold 2 in One Go To PostNo Man's Sky was overhyped and shallow - its improved, but thats not saying much.I would rather all of us (30 people) posse up and go hunt bears on horseback or shoot up a whore house in Red Dead 2. At least that will have a semblance of organic non-predictability to it.

Destiny is one and done for me. The idea of loot and co-oping is fun, I get that, but how many times can you replay the same scenario's over and over again? You obviously like that, I think it get's old after a few runs. That's all.
By Hitch Go To PostYou suck.These two things are not mutually exclusive
By NinjaFridge Go To PostWhat a save!
What a save!
What a save!
Whew.
What was that cunt of a mission called in Destiny post-game with the green Rancor looking thing chained to some pillars? Me, Killer, Odd and a footballgaffer whose name I can't remember banged our heads against it dozens of times, but the number of strong enemies just became ridiculous near the end.
Wonder if I'd have stuck with it if we'd completed it. Never had that relief of overcoming a challenge in Destiny that drags me through the Souls games. When it was hard, it was just annoying. And the less said about the story and structure the better. That stuff could legit hardly have been worse.
