New game by genDesign!?

[Legend]

But there is always a first for anything. It could be not as good. We shall see

I expect it to be great. I just think it was a bad trailer. Outside of showing that they licensed brands and will have a melee focus, what did we get?

Eh I've never cared much for their other games.  Never really played much of them though so I don't really have any feelings either way about it

Muppets were crazy this year. I need the clip of them calling Geof a moron.

I'll say the show was great, but a lot of the trailers were bad.

I hate every time a franchise changes a face and Witcher 4 is no exception. Also new voice and a bulky body, but that's just kinda lame. Don't give me a female geralt, give me an authentic ciri that is a huge shakeup for the franchise.

genDesign teased mechs maybe. Could be cool but something feels off.

Intergalactic was super generic. Remove the ND logo and you'd think it was a rando cgi trailer that could come from anyone. I'm hyped because I love ND, but I feel way less hyped now that I've seen a tease of it. Tlou1 tease was so much better.


Outer Worlds 2 on the other hand had a great trailer imo. I got interested in the game again.

[Horizon]

Fantastic show.  Intergalactic, Split Fiction, Mafia, Borderlands, Game of Thrones, Outer Worlds,Onimusha, Turok. Probably more I am forgetting.

i'm done catching up on the announcments and for a TGA looks like it was a good show.

intergalatic looked great.  someone should ban legend for calling is super generic.   also i love that it's the new IP that got announced (i don't want to say i hate TLoU but i'm not a fan of horror and the zombie theme isn't my bag).   i love the new atmosphere and swords are totally my bag.   i see they put jak and daxtar into their creds and having looked at the trailer i hope i'm not wrong in thinking this could be more of an adventure game which is one of my favorite genres.   i'm hyped.

split fiction and stage fright looked great too.   colorful and co-op.  i'm happy for both of these.


after that things weren't as great for me.  in theory i'm excited for okami, project robot, and witcher 4.  likely i'll like the games but the trailers didn't do much for me.

maybe elden ring: nightreign is good.  i'm starting from a place of not being happy with elden ring and i know that affects my mood on the announcement.   there was clear evidence of it not being a straight up elden ring expansion though so maybe i'll like it.   many of my grips with elden ring are wrt to how terrible they made the game to play in coop so a coop-centric game might be just what i needed.   i saw the guy jump the wall too so some better movement is a welcome change too.   jury is out for me.

and everything else is a pass for me.

yep I agree. BAN HIM!

I also like the name. Its weird at first, but it grew on me. 

I think I'm expecting this to go more towards the uncharted vibe where its still character driven/emotional story, but more lighthearted than TLOU.

Intergalactic is ok imo. The subtitle is too much.

Tlou is 4 syllables. Uncharted games were 5-7 syllables. Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is 11.

Intergalactic looked ... super generic.

Yup glad we're on the same boat. All these space games as of late are retro themed. Give us something new!!!

[the-pi-guy]

I almost feel like the presentation was generic, but I don't think the game will be.
