Well yes but truth be told Japonisme didn’t become in vogue again until quite recently. Before that it was ninja games.

Nah, same can be said about about western games on PC. I was so jelly when RDR1 didn’t release on PC back in the day, all we ever got was GUN and the Call of Juarez series (which weren’t open world but still enjoyable).
Sure you can say we had the Desperados series but only the first game was good and the rest were mediocre until Desperados 3.

Sad about that. It was because the code was more volatile than a tub of nitro-glycerine if I recall.

I think the first two were decent enough, especially for someone that likes the wild west, though the first one had more jank in it :stuck_out_tongue:
Yeah, Gunslinger blew it out of the park, especially after that mess that was… was… huh, was about to mention something but I’m pretty sure that thing doesn’t exist :grin:
Aside for those, GUN and Dead Man’s Hand which I never tried, there weren’t many western games on PC so I couldn’t be picky about it.

oh, i’m a huge western fan too. i just wasn’t big on the first two. not sure why; i thought red dead revolver was great, so it’s not like i had a particularly high bar :grinning:

i liked gun but it was stupidly short. never tried dead man’s hand though.

Development apparently going extremely well (but more importantly still going). That is good to hear.

I still rather play Ghost of Tsushima than watch Norman Reedus drinking Monster Energy, i think :sweat_smile:

This is cute and everything, but will it arrive on PC as well? :pleading_face:

Finally, some actual gameplay and explanation of what Deathloop is actually going to be.

I’m really torn by this, because it looks like there is loads to like, but as someone who doesn’t like first person shooters (mainly because I’m no good at twitch-reflex gameplay) the actual core gameplay loop kinda puts me off all the really interesting stuff surrounding it.

Shouldn’t be a problem in single players games, you can die and reload as much as you want and there are no teammates breathing down your neck for playing bad like in online FPSs :grin:

I’ve never played an online FPS, my dislike of the genre is born solely of playing single-player FPS games. I want to take my time! :grin:

(Actually, that explains why I do like Superhot…)

my man!

if deathloop is anything like arkane’s previous work, it’s less twitch and more planning and executing; not a million miles away from hitman.

Then surely you would be fine with some more tactical FPS games? :wink:
