They really need to stop trying to make every single show continuous.
Nobody wants to see these characters anymore after the story wrapped in the first season. Just create a brand new story each season with new cast.
There are already way way way too many serialized shows out there that people don't have the time or patience to follow anymore of them.
Close shows off like True Detective, it should be the future of TV series, as the market becomes more and more saturated with shows people don't have time to follow anymore shows. They should do what Asians who pioneered serialized shows do, which is close every show off with only 1 season, then move on with a different story.
The dated belief that you can keep milking a show forever doesn't work anymore.
VR is definitely the future, it will overtake traditional gaming in a decade or so, maybe even faster. Just like how home gaming overtook arcade gaming in the past, VR is here to stay and will eventually become the standard for gaming.
Biggest issue with VR is the lower non HD resolution. You essentially need 4K at 120fps to achieve a VR experience of 720p due to pixel warping, and in order to achieve a VR experience of 1080p you need 6-8k at 120fps, and that's just to give you 60fps experience. If we want silky smooth 120fps experience, you need VR to run at 240fps.
The hardware needed for VR is just insane at the moment, its really the only set back is the hardware. Everything feels like slightly better than SD at the moment.
Regardless of what you meant. My point was MGS has always been so far off from reality that its not even funny.
Old dudes wearing Octopus suits who used to be president of the United states, fat guys in rollerskates, the list goes on. I've always considered MGS games to be jokes plotwise.
I can't take any of them seriously, not for a single moment. Romanian vampires dudes. Remember that one.
@crack_baby_: WTF you talking about, we're talking about AAA games here. Who gives a shit if its sports game or donkey emulator. AAA is AAA.
I also compared it to Call of Duty as well, the last I checked Call of Duty ain't a Sports game.
Just cause you recycle assets don't make the game any less AAA. If recycling assets is not AAA then I have never played a single AAA Call of Duty game.
@elheber: There's a man engulfed in flames who absorbs bullets and shoots flaming beams out of his hands and rides a fire unicorn for crying out loud. Please don't ever use the term Real Life in the same sentence as MGS.
@cboye18: The stealth was the worst in the franchise. Because the way stealth works is, you need to create closed off environments for stealth, if you have open world, stealth is no longer an issue, because you can simply sit back and sniper tranquilize everyone before you enter the base. Which is what I did.
The original MGS games used set pieces with closed off stages that forced you to use stealth, but the new game requires no actual stealth at all, which defeats the purpose of MGS.
MGS is the only game that cannot work in open world environment due primarily to the stealth element which again requires closed off stages.
For me V is the worst MGS game, it also didn't have the humor and cinematic flair of the previous games. Its trying to be all serious, when the plot line is completely ridiculous just like every single MGS game.
@mi_hung_lo: If you watch the final scene of the trailer. Its obvious Metal Gear shows up in the end.
100% guarantee Metal Gear is in this game.
Watch the trailer again before you complain. Watch the last scene, the ground shakes, the shrieking sound, they all look up and guess what its Metal Gear.
@Xristophoros: Tons of AAA games get sold for less nowadays. Recore is also 30 bucks.
And I don't get what you mean by new assets? You can obviously tell that all the character models are new, those character never existed in the original MGS V game, and the enemies and set pieces are all new.
Of course they are using the same MGS V engine, they designed it why wouldn't they use it?
Call of Duty uses the same assets for all their new releases.
PES 2017 and this new game are all running off of the MGS V engine, so whats your point?
If a game runs off of the MGS V engine then its not AAA? WTF?! Konami will be using that engine for a long time, so get used to it. If they ever do Silent Hill again, guess what its gonna be running off the same assets as MGS V.
So in order for game to be AAA it needs to have all new assets and all new engine. BS. Every game nowadays in the market uses recycled engines. Dark Souls 3 uses the same engine as Bloodborne.
Call of Duty has been using the same engine for how many games now? Most games don't even use their own engines, most use Unreal Engine with presold paint by numbers game design, so you telling me that every game that uses Unreal Engine is not AAA because they are using predesigned assets?
Konami uses the same engine for both PES 2017 and MGS games, because they spent millions of development resources on creating that engine, why the hell would they throw out a perfectly good engine to create a new one for their AAA games.
EVERY company recycles assets for their AAA games Einstein.
So basically you are saying that none of the new Call of Duty games or any of the new Fifa games are AAA because they use the same assets? Is that what you are saying?
