Arkane don't miss.
Not true. I counted about 28 missed shots in that trailer.

Let's wait and see on this one. It's on GamePass so might as well give it a shot.
The vampire vibe is still pretty cool but maybe a little too cheesy and zoomer like honestly. I think this could have been more well received with a more mature tone to it

I am sorry, but this looks terrible. And this is coming from someone who was really interested in this originally.

i'd almost guarantee it's the latter. covering up multiple deaths'd be the only reason to further mess up an already messed up 'promotional video' (smh)...

Fortnite is actually a good game though. Valorant is a solid PvP game with a mix of Counter Strike and League of Legends.
This just looks like it doesn't know what it wants to be.

Glad to see the guy that does the Halo Brute voice got to branch out to a new character.

So he did Craig. Now he's doing Rook. Raig? Rookaig? Crook? Ah yes. That's it!

my only concern is that he's becoming somewhat typecast...

I think they're somehow making a mix-bag of everything but I think they're trying The Division formula here of PvPvE. Overall, not my cup of tea.

I try not to be harsh on exclusive titles because of the response it elicits, but this is probably the most uninspiring gameplay I've seen from an Arkane title, and I say that as someone who isn't a fan of their games. I feel like I've seen this kind of co-op shooter gameplay too many times before and nothing presented was interesting. I could be totally wrong at release, but everything I've seen of this game is just passable at best.

The Gears of War team is like Raig?! Fuck yeah! We got our new guy!

they were struggling (niche games that didn't sold well).

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
This is beautiful.
It's weird that people can look at a video & decide if they like a game or not lol
But it's only 3 weeks away & I'm not seeing a big lead up to it's release but I think it's going to end up with a big following on PC. Not going to make people go out & buy Xbox Series consoles like some people was hyping but I think it's going to get good word of mouth

First I was not hype. Then a month or so ago they released some previews that said "hey this can be a single player game like Far Cry" so I got a little hype. But seeing the latest round of previews has once again diminished hype to near zero. RIP Arkane. You were one of the good ones. Hell of a run last gen.

While I'm still looking forward to it I can't help but agree with this. Gunplay itself still looks a bit underwhelming compared to similar shooters (even something like B4B).

What in the actual fuck are the people playing this game doing. That was rank.

I don't get how anyone at the studio can play this and not even consider that this game feels generic as hell. This feels like a game being made by a new and upcoming indie studio.

Yep that looks like a typical GaaS game boss battle alright. At the very least make it exciting. Theres nothing exciting about it. The shooting seems to lack impact, even on the red bar enemies. The player abilities are boring. The boss itself isnt that aggressive and lacks interesting moves/attacks. I dunno, maybe the one playing is making the game looks worse than it is. Who on earth uses a sniper rifle so close to a target and go lock picks doors midst boss fight?

Looks boring but the game will get 9's across the board

Is the game only online co-op? Or is there a singleplayer campaign that could perhaps be worthwhile?
I haven't paid much attention to the game (I'm on PS5, don't own an Xbox), so I don't know much about it. The footage turns me off, but I'm wondering if we're only seeing one side of the game (sloppy co-op) and there might be a robust singleplayer campaign in there, too? Just asking.

This may sound extremely small, but something that has really irked me is how this is a game about vampires, has blood all over the environments, but there's no gore when you shoot enemies? Wtf? Shooting enemies there's no visual sign of impact at all, lmao. Wtf? I remember thinking, "Eh, it's early, maybe it'll be added later", and nope. It's so odd, lmao.

Starting to think Prey was a fluke
Let me guess, CUPHEAD was also a terrible game because of that one fella who couldn't get past the tutorial.
That's probably easy to do if you just make up nonsense about a game. REDFALL isn't and has never been advertised to be anything close to "The Division" least of all with PVP (like where do you even get that).

I don't think bosses will be the games main selling point. Given I've watched other gameplay footage I think this will make a good solo shoot em up game with a half baked Vampire aesthetic. The Vampires seem more like evil wizards/witches then typical Vampires. The lack of blood is disconcerting in a Vampire game but it kinda looks like Borderlands + Vampires to me.
I'm willing to give it a go but Deep Rock Galactic has spoiled me too much. Cautiously optimistic.

Nah it's the game pass effect

But the advantage of not having GamePass is you'd spend your gaming time on a better game that you actually wanted to buy.

I don't know if it is so much shitty gameplay as it is shitty gamers. The guy playing just seems to throw shit randomly and at :53 in the video he has the "Bellwhether Operator" guy lined up and takes out MOST of his health but then turns away isntead of finishing him off. I really don't understand what this guy is doing at all.

The Division is of course a much superior game, but talking about the PvPvE element here.

oh boy. watching this thread tells me 2 things:
1. This game is no way near to the levels of expectations/hype some people are making it out to be.
2. IF this game falls in the 70s on Meta....you know what kind of narrative is going to circulate online.
I think the reality of the situation is that this game was green-lit before the acquisition and Bethesda needed to make a "popular" game.
...was this game meant to have MTX's?
i don't see a strong Arkane identity. and the co-op doesn't feel well-integrated or meaningful.

70 million copies sold. Xbox is back baby, pack the caravan, we are driving Phill right off that cliff like the good old days.

no baby. 70 Million New Game Pass Subscribers LET'S GOOOOOOOO
It was altered and cut down to fit Gamepass. Gamepass is all about AA games right now (25 million subs) because the subscription #s don't warrant AAA.
Xbox needs 100 million plus imo but I don't see that ever happening.
