phil bottle got a reaction from Riff Machine in GTA 6 - Trailer 1
I've seen some Bonnie&Clyde, True Romance type comparisons. Looking forward to finding out more but yep, does whet the appetite.

2025 Q1 seems about right but yes, a polished and finished game on release would be appreciated and buck the recent trend...

phil bottle reacted to J4MES OX4D in Starfield
They certainly can't be turning up in 2027 with the Creation Engine, 2D character interactions, visuals from 2012 and no facial animations againπ€£Β ES6 is probably still another 5+ years away - I get the impression from interviews that they announced it way too early and then let it take a backseat whilst they were halfway through Starfield development. After the reception this game got especially from a technical and outdated standpoint, they may go back to the drawing board because releasing another archaic and unambitious game later this decade will not sit well. Their reputation is beginning to wane and people ain't as forgiving.

Bethesda developers have been working overtime all week responding to negative reviews and telling people they were wrong and how they didn't play the game right. Some of the responses seem really unhinged and remarkably out of touch.Β
Β
Here's one infamous take:-
Some of Starfieldβs planets are meant to be empty by design - but that's not boring. βWhen the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there. They certainly weren't bored." The intention of Starfield's exploration is to evoke a feeling of smallness in players and make you feel overwhelmed. You can continue to explore and find worlds that do have resources you need or hidden outposts to look through.
Β
Comparing a real-life moon landing which was one of the biggest achievements in the history of humanity to their shitty procedurally-generated copy and pasted planets to justify their emptiness is one of the most insane things I have ever heard from a developer. It's just one of many really weird responses. Surely they would thank the players for their feedback, understand the critique and take on board what has been said for future titles but no, they have to tell the players that they should not be bored because the game is 'realistic'.
Β
It's also a damning insight into their design philosophy through development.Β

phil bottle reacted to tronic44 in Teardown Gameplay
Iβve been playing this a lot lately, love the look and mechanics of the game. I got properly stuck on a mission but managed to finally get passed it after the millionth time of trying and only beat it by .6 of a second.
Β
I just love driving through buildings and watching them crumble haha

Powerwash is a decent nice little distraction if you can't figure out what to play.Β @Rumelyladytore through it all and the DLC and loved every minute of it.Β If only I could get her to do the same to the fucking car.Β π€ͺπ€π»

phil bottle got a reaction from Riff Machine in Lethal Company
It's still in early access and is online co-op which is the only reason I've held off.

Looks great though.
