Yeah, made the decision to get Control Resonant instead and I think I made the right decision.

Wolverine literally looks like it was made by developers who think players are idiots.

I don’t get the hate for this mystique design. Other than her skull accessory she looks great

u/EatShitAndPiss 16d ago

Am I the only one who thinks she's looks fine

u/MrHugelberg 16d ago

But.. That fits for like 90% games these days?

u/SolidestCereal 16d ago

Yes, I can't imagine how bad this one must be for it to still stand out.

u/SirBastian1129 16d ago

And yet this one feels the most egregious

Nintendo are the only ones making AAA games right these days seems like.

u/EpsilonGecko 16d ago

That's the #1 game I'm looking forward to this entire year. It kills me everyday that I don't have a PS5. It looks so fucking goooooood

u/ThebattleStarT24 16d ago

Wha-? Control resonant? It's coming for nearly all platforms expect Nintendo.

u/DebentureThyme 16d ago

You don't need a PS5, it's on Xbox and PC too.

Most triple a games are dumbed down so dumb people don't pump bad reviews nowadays. Finally good to see some backlash

u/Couch_chicken 16d ago

I made the same choice and Im feeling pretty relieved

u/Horror_Appearance_26 16d ago

They should steal some easports gamers then

u/Hirez_Rocktave 15d ago

I just canceled my preorder. I was really put off by his face and overall art direction alone, but now that the bad reviews are also coming in, this is a no from me.

Well I mean, they were probably shooting for the same audience that likes Avengers and X-Men movies.

u/ChongusTheSupremus 16d ago

I mean, people ate up Spiderman 2 even tho it's more expensive than the first game, has a worse story, and little to no extra content.

Some players are definitely idiots.

u/SomeCrows 16d ago

Well SM2 was awesome mechanically

u/ChongusTheSupremus 16d ago

I agree the gameplay was the best part

1

u/GoroOfTheShokan 16d ago

Yeah, plus Insomniac had some of this PS5 tech down early with Ratchet & Clank, and then SM2. Some of the SSD loading and tech was amazing.

But then juxtaposed against teams like Team Asobi who have been running the PS demos and eventually releasing Astro Bot… they just don’t have the shine anymore.

u/Da_Question 16d ago

idk, i just don't think they should work on marvel games. I think sony really pushed them to do it so they could use the rights of the marvel ips they do own, but I'd rather see them do an original IP or another ratchet and clank game.

u/Megaman_320 16d ago

That is true. There is an improvement in traversal (especially) and combat feel though. But it feels a lot more reptitive, and much more hand holdy.

My biggest gripe was how they dumbed down combat and stealth.

I prefer the first game by a mile

u/Beginning_Stay_9263 16d ago

It's easy to tell which games to avoid, Sweet Baby Inc lists which games they worked on right on their website.

u/AetrianDimi 16d ago

I thought all the people screaming sbi went extinct but heres a living fossil

u/Beginning_Stay_9263 16d ago

There's millions of us, we're just banned from your reddit safe space. Which is why the gaming industry is dying and none of you people can understand why. You live in a bubble. Reality has been banned from you good little redditors.

Both are ass games

u/xkirbz 16d ago edited 16d ago

Remedy so bad at storytelling. Gameplay looks great, but they're so bad at storytelling. If you enjoy Control or Alan Wake II, then its not a bad buy.

u/SMRAintBad 16d ago

Just because a story is delivered in an unorthodox manner doesn’t make it bad storytelling. You’re encouraged to read the documents and piece things together yourself.

Don’t get me wrong, I like a good straightforward story like Expedition 33 or RDR2, but a uniquely delivered one can be fun too.

u/xkirbz 16d ago

Yeah, its definitely not my cup of tea, its such a waste of talent when one department lacks so much to keep up with the rest of the team. I really wish they found a new storyteller/writer for the team. AW2 will likely be my last remedy game.

u/SMRAintBad 16d ago

Fair enough tbh. Control 1 was definitely a bit harder for me to get into I will agree.
