Debra Wilson. I played Immortals a little (it's not great, the main character is a douche) and she is front and center, again. She's in everything, correct.
She is quite literally in a ton of video games right now and probably owns the record for high-quality face scans because they use her face for nearly every character she plays. It's not even her fault. Developer studios are just being lazy with character design
What every black woman in existence looks like to modern game developers. This is like their black woman version of whatever model artists used when drawing black people for Tintin comics.
Yea they wanted this. Gaming industry now banks on people who want to buy in to the "gaming culture" and the "experience" instead of people who actually want to play the game.
See Pokemon cards for a great example of what I am talking about.
Don’t you know silly? You can’t be a fan of a game if you only watch it and don’t play it, if you only watch it you’re not a true fan. The internet says so.
And if you like the streamer/let's player, you can send 2-5 bucks instead of paying 70+ for a bad game and feel like you're paying someone who is actually a person rather than a corp.
Why are y'all being so toxic about QTE's being auto completed. I didn't even know so many people liked QTEs this much. "The game is unplayable because the QTE completed itself".
I would be more understanding if people were complaining about QTEs in general, but the outrage over this seems so fake and manufactured.
Because this is one, of many, showcases how Insomniac doesn’t respect the player enough to not hold their hand. It’s basically saying “people will probably miss this so let’s give it to them anyways.” QTEs are controversial, but mostly everyone can agree if a game is just playing itself why even buy it?
But if that's the case people should be complaining about the inclusion of QTE in general, not just that it completes itself. I disabled having to press for QTE in Spider-Man PS4 and it made such a huge difference. QTE is never fun for me. So if I don't have to press for it it's just a cutscene. Big deal.
Very much the “if it doesn’t bother me why should it bother everyone else?” argument that means nothing. Glad you want your games to play yourself, but for a majority of people the reason we enjoy this medium if for the interactivity. That’s why Baldur’s Gate 3 is my favorite game of all time. At this point why even make Wolverine a game when it could’ve just been a show. Then it would’ve avoided a lot of the pacing issue the game also has.
QTEs are already the game basically playing itself. It's a trash mechanic. Might as well just watch a cutscene.
People should really be complaining that it's even included at all, not just about the lack of fail animations. So I can't really take the outrage seriously.
People are legitimately saying the game is unplayable because of QTEs not needing to be pressed. I disabled QTEs in Spider-Man PS4 and it made the game way more seamless and enjoyable.
Have you read the comments? Do you think this discourse is actually healthy? Seems like all anyone wants to be is outraged.
Honestly fuck this game, but if the biggest issue is QTEs not having fail cutscenes and that's what makes it unplayable for you, you might have a problem.
How fucking dumb are you? A person isn't mentally ill because they dislike a word. Especially a word that's constantly being abused and diluted.
Do you like how people abuse the word woke too? Are you one of those people? The way people on the internet are abusing the word slop isn't much different than the way they abuse the word woke.
You not liking something doesn't automatically make it slop because everyone has different preferences.
I don't care about people using words, I know the meaning and discern if the thing fits the word or doesn't. The problem is, you lack this ability to discern. There's objective things to evaluate in games, it's not all "preference".
I lack the ability to call everything I don't like slop. Because now it's being used the same for everything that certain people that don't like certain things call woke.
It's fucking stupid the way people like you just throw the word slop around so casually. And over QTEs.
QTEs are already a lazy mechanic but people aren't complaining about QTEs they're complaining about the lack of fail animation which essentially just makes the moment a cutscene which is what a QTE basically is anyway.
And shame on you for having the nerve to call anyone mentally ill just because they disagreed with you over the use of a word.
Shame on you. Imagine actually thinking that was okay behavior.
I definitely take issue with the fact that qtes are in the game at all, but the fact that they auto complete is just asinine. Like it somehow makes qtes worse, and I didn't think that was possible.
I wanted this game to be good, but this decision tells me that the whole studio is trash, and they'll never make another game I like.
Good studios can put out duds and it doesn't mean they can't learn from their mistakes and improve in the future. But then maybe it depends on what led to the mistakes.
If it's bad management maybe they are screwed or maybe the bad management gets fired.
I thought gamers generally didn't like QTEs though. If it completes itself it's just a cutscene. I disabled QTE in Spider-Man PS4 in the accessible settings and it made for a much more enjoyable and seamless experience.
Seems like people just want to be upset at something no matter how trivial.
I think it's a display of laziness. You would hope a game developer would go all out and leave no stone unturned with their game. The fact they didn't add additional material(death scene) is just ridiculous. Maybe it's a "boomer" thing.
Perhaps an option to turn it on or off would have been best for both parties.
