Clarification: Some are getting it a bit twisted about the mocap part. It's not that fights are all 100% mocapped, the combat animations are. So that's my mistake for the confusion.

This looks great! UE5 is HEAVY though, so not surprised with the 30FPS target. Looking forward to continuing Senua's story

Why if series x is the most powerful console, is it still limited to 30 fps? What's the point of having a next gen console?

Expeditioners, Here’s an extended combat clip from early in the game, featuring a Nevron called Évèque. This footage contains no story spoilers—just pure combat. 🤝 Évèque begins combat with multiple shields, meaning the first hits in combat will be blocked. This Expeditioner uses the free-aim system to target its weak point, which would usually be an excellent opening move. However, due to the shields, the impact is minimal. That said, thanks to an equipped Picto, the attack at least applies stackable burn. You can see the full power of parries and the way that perfect timing can shape your encounters. For both parrying and dodging, you’ll rely on audiovisual cues from enemies to master the timing. These change quite drastically between enemies, the speed that they are attacking, or the spell they are casting. When Évèque builds up chroma, it can use it to unleash a devastating attack that can be much harder to counter. The game offers three difficulty modes. Story Mode is more forgiving when it comes to dodge and parry timing. Expeditioner and Expert modes are more challenging, and increase the damage inflicted by enemies. As you progress, you’ll unlock new skills and Pictos, which will expand your moveset and enhance the effects of your dodges and parries. Damage is increased or bonuses are applied upon landing perfect hits, and for accessibility, an auto-QTE setting is available for these. What would you like to see more of next?

Doom: The Dark Ages | New Hands-On Impressions and Gameplay Full Video ▶️ ▪️"Doom 2016 was focused on run and gun, Doom Eternal evolved into jump and shoot, the core combat principle of Doom: The Dark Age is to stand and fight" ▪️The story is very prominent this time, with 'lavishly realized' cutscenes and twisted looking characters ▪️Gothic castles loom over battlefields, enemies use a mix of medieval weapons and sci-fi guns, characters are donned in plated armor, etc ▪️Previewers still found themselves moving and strafing, but the new shield allows you to hold your ground, block or parry attacks and deflect projectiles ▪️You can't deflect every attack (red means you can't, green means you can) ▪️The shield bash attack lets you speed across the battlefield and deliver a powerful crushing blow ▪️You can rev up the shield like a chainsaw and throw it, where it can bounce between lesser enemies such as Imps like a pinball, or lodged straight into stronger enemies to stun them ▪️The shield is also useful against other enemies with shields, where you can hit them with super shotgun rounds to the point their shields are molten, then throw your shield to ignite the entire group ▪️Shield is the center of combat, guns have upgrades but no more alternate fire modes so your choice of guns is "one of build synergy" (examples: rapid-fire bullets can ricochet off an enemy you lodged your shield into or bullet superheat enemies so they explode when you throw your shield at them, etc) ▪️"Seriously satisfying" using the giant Atlan assault mechs to take on Titan demons ▪️Atlan Mech Combat: Use the right trigger to unleash combos, starts to fill up a special meter, at halfway you can deliver a powerful stomp that sends a shockwave that splits open the ground where lava spills out and hurts the enemy. Filling it completely allows you to deal a finishing move ▪️You also use giant airplane hanger sized machine guns with your giant mechs. Perfectly dodging incoming enemy attacks powers up both barrels of the gun for extra power ▪️Doomslayer rides cybernetic dragons complete with twin cannons and laser wings above cities, where he battles Hell Carrier airships ▪️After taking out each carrier's defenses, you can land on them, leap off your dragon and fight through demon hordes to their central power core to bring them down ▪️On top of directed action sequences, there are also large, open ended levels that you can return to at any time that give the player the freedom to tackle objectives in any order and progress at their own pace ▪️Scour the landscapes in different directions where you can discover brand new guns to add to your arsenal, gold to spend on upgrades, health and armor, etc ▪️The large areas but "still dense with breathtaking discoveries and diverse encounters" ▪️There are mini-bosses that are locked behind a 'morale meter', where you have to take out dozens of lesser enemies before your attacks can hurt them ▪️Some areas feature almost no combat at all, like caves that challenge you to use your shield to solve environmental puzzles, and others are super dangerous like a swamp area where a giant tentacle emerges and kills you in an instant ▪️Reaver Chainshot: A new weapon that fires a charged up cannon ball attached to a chain, which you can retract and use again, "deliriously good fun" ▪️6 levels of difficulty to choose from, from Aspiring Slayer to Ultra Nightmare ▪️You can adjust things like parry timing, attack damage, speed, etc Previews IGN ➡️ Gamespot ➡️ Eurogamer ➡️ #DoomTheDarkAges #PS5 #Xbox

Avowed | Hands-On Preview Details ▪️You play as the "Envoy", a fully customizable character traveling to the "Living Lands" (the setting of the game) on orders from the leader of the Aedyr Empire, a nation of humans and elves ▪️The Living Lands have a sort of Wild West frontier vibe where people head there in search of a better life, full of "rough and tumble" type inhabitants ▪️As the emperor's Envoy, most people immediately look at with mild distrust or full hostility as they see the Aedyr Empire trying to establish a foothold there ▪️You are sent there to investigate the "Dream Scourge", a soul plague that's infecting everything, and you need to learn how to stop it ▪️The game is not fully open world, but is made up of "open zones" that are large and interconnected, similar to The Outer Worlds ▪️Obsidian has made it a focus that each area is fully handcrafted and has interesting things to do, bandit camps, ruins to explore, half-destroyed hovels, undead soldiers, etc ▪️Features an open class approach to combat, where your backstory (war hero, arcane scholar, etc) determines your starting weapon, but you can find other options as you play like spears, swords, shields, pistols and can freely wield them ▪️You can store two weapon loadouts at a time and swap between them instantly, including mid-attack combo ▪️Hitting enemies damages health and also builds up a stagger meter that leaves them stunned when maxed out, allowing to do weapon-specific special moves for a lot of damage ▪️You can sneak around stealthily and get enemies from behind or use the environment to your advantage (like shooting fiery berries to start a fire) ▪️Some encounters can be bypassed entirely through stealth, or through dialogue convos if you have the right stats ▪️Combat is described as fast and fluid, managing your stamina meter to dictate your attacks, dodging unblockable enemy attacks, charging up your weapons for stronger hits, and being able to dual-wield like double swords, spear and pistol, etc "always feels like you have something up your sleeve" ▪️Some previewers however felt the combat was also "undeniably on the easy side" ▪️Eurogamer worries the Living Lands might not be as strange as Obsidian hopes it feels like, as there was nothing that popped out as unique or wildly original ▪️Structured leveling system, spend skill points in named skill trees like "Fighter" or "Ranger" ▪️Unlock special abilities that run on cooldown timers, mix and match different skills like the Fighter's dash-tackle and the Ranger's magic vines that entangles enemies ▪️There are many choices to make in the game, like happening upon a smuggler in a cage in the first outpost you encounter, whereby she's immediately distrustful of you, and it's up to you whether to release her or not ▪️One of the first places you visit is "Paradis", the main hub/point of civilization in the Living Lands, and you have to find the "clavager", essentially the town's mayor who went off to investigate some Dream Scourge reports ▪️After that, you're free to explore wherever you like, sidequests immediately become available, and they will impact your main story and vice versa ▪️Choices in sidequests "heavily impact individual characters, groups of characters, and entire settlements, factions of people, and the states of the regions that you go through. They will also impact the choices that are even available to you. Later in the game, you'll be locked or locked out of or presented with new choices based on the choices you made much earlier in the game" ▪️Exploring off the beaten path can often be rewarding, like happening upon a ruined tower that doesn't show up as any icon on the map. Investigating it triggered tripwire traps with swinging blades, inviting phantom enemies, and climbing up to the end revealed a chest with a high-quality piece of armor ▪️You can set up camps in different areas and talk to your companions, learn their backstories, etc which are all optional ▪️Writing is more grounded compared to the "relentless zaniness of The Outer Worlds", though still retains Obsidian's trademark humor but feels more natural to dialogue and less pressured to be quippy and quirky ▪️Kai, the bluish-green "Aumaua" companion from past footage, accompanies you early on. Companions are a 'constant presence', commenting on landmarks you pass by, during combat, and "generally feeling like a fellow traveler rather than trailing quietly behind you" Gamespot: Eurogamer: IGN: #Avowed #Xbox

Blades of Fire | Hands-On Gameplay Impressions ▪️Recap: New action-adventure IP from MercurySteam (Metroid Dread, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow) ▪️Coming to PS5, Xbox and PC on May 22 ▪️Around 60-70 hours long to complete ▪️You play as Aran de Lira, a forger and warrior who, after suffering a personal tragedy, "finds himself in possession of a magic hammer that lets him enter the forge of the gods to create the only weapons able to defeat Queen Nerea’s forces" ▪️The world is "squarely in fantasy territory", "rich, overabundant, lavish fantasy, as well as occasionally brutal and twisted" ▪️Magic courses through a land teeming with flowers and buzzing with wildlife, and creatures like trolls and elementals romp around ▪️Soldiers sort of look a bit like the Locust from Gears of War, chunky, loitering around. The whole game feels like it has a "chunkiness" to it, a bit like Blizzard games (hands and arms are oversized, buildings/walls are double thick). Combines to make a pleasing visual picture and give a sturdy, hefty feel ▪️"Wildly customizable weapons saves it from being just another action game", "combat is refreshingly different" ▪️Combat: Rooted in directional attacks that use every face button on a controller. On a DualSense for example, Δ aims for the head, X goes for the torso, while ⏹️ and ⭕️ swipe left and right respectively ▪️An enemy holding up a blade to protect their face for instance, can be overcome by aiming low and skewering through their gut ▪️Example: A troll boss can have a second health bar that can only be chipped away after dismembering it. If you use your right hand attacks, you can cut off its club-wielding left arm or cut off its entire face, leaving it blind and aimlessly flailing until it can regrow its eyes back ▪️Your attack and dodge stamina must be manually restored by holding the block button instead of automatically regenerating ▪️You can swap between 4 different weapons on the fly, wield your weapons via different stances, either slashing with the sharp edge or thrusting with the pointed tip; assess enemies to determine which methods are the most effective ▪️Rather than finding new weapons out in the game world, every weapon's life starts in the Forge ▪️You can create up to 7 different weapon types, from twin axes to polearms ▪️You start with your choice of a basic weapon template and tweak and modify and name, for example you can adjust the length of a spear's pole and the shape of its spear head which affects its stats ▪️A longer pole increases the spear's range, while its head shape dictates if its better at slashing or piercing ▪️Different materials also affect a weapon's weight which has an effect on your stamina pool ▪️You then physically hammer out the metal in-game on the anvil through a "remarkably involved minigame", where you control the length, force and angle of every hammer strike ▪️There is a curved line onscreen that represents the ideal weapon, you arrange a series of vertical bars to try and match the shape of that curved line with each hammer strike. Overworking results in a weaker weapon. You're rewarded with a star rating, the more stars you get, the more you can repair your weapon before it permanently breaks ▪️You can instantly remake weapons you've made before to save time ▪️Some found the weapon forging system to be "frustratingly obtuse", as there didn't seem to be a clear connection between the areas struck and the resulting shape of the metal; hoping for better tutorial or improvements before launch ▪️MercurySteam wants you to feel deeply attached to the weapons you create and carry them with you for the duration of your journey ▪️If you die, you lose your weapon upon respawning, but you can go back to where you died to retrieve them ▪️After playing for 3 hours, some hands-on impressions were unsure if the game can support a variety of a 60 hour game ("within 3 hours I’d fought the same gatekeeping miniboss 3 times") ▪️Others also felt there were uneven difficulty spikes, the game chucks multiple types of enemies at you, sometimes in confined areas. Can sometimes feel like you waste precious weapons, rest at an anvil to reforge and then enemies respawn again ▪️One previewer noted that when they started slowing down and nosing through the game's menus and built-in tips to see what they were doing wrong, they learned the game's nuances and it clicked Previews IGN: Full IGN Gameplay: Mirror: Eurogamer: #BladesofFire

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle | Previews & Details ▪️You can feel the DNA of Chronicles of Riddick/Wolfenstein games ▪️Surprisingly a bit like Hitman in stealth systems and the way levels are designed ▪️There are many mysterious locked chambers, complex ancient mechanisms, and ritualistic challenges to solve ▪️Examples of puzzles: stealth section to find a golden medallion inside a Nazi base, unlocking a door that unexpectedly opens up a spike pit under your feet, reflecting multiple beams of light across a room to retrieve a mask ▪️Linear storyline, but there are open areas which include side characters, hidden secrets, added rewards, and photo opportunities ▪️One open area sees Indy in an Egyptian bazaar, passing through crowds and finding a stall, which offers up a conversation with the owner and an opportunity for a side quest ▪️These sections are "packed with detail", hidden passages, scattered documents, etc that add context to the story ▪️You'll be able to revisit these areas once you’ve unlocked them and return to find more at a later time ▪️Whip: Useful combat tool, can drag onrushing Nazis in a fight, and also used to grab object in the environment, smash them, swing with, or use as a climbing rope ▪️Camera: Indy packs a film camera that players can use to take pictures of their adventure for "Adventure Points". It also helps offering pointers for puzzles and deepening the story ▪️Journal: Acts as a sort of de facto hint system, with Indy's own notes helping to guide you. Discoveries, documents, photos, physical maps you find in the game world are also stored there ▪️Lighter: Can help illuminate dark places or maybe ward off some snakes ▪️Indy also uses other tools throughout the world, like picking up a spear to throw into a wall that acts as a swinging point, breakable bottles to distract enemies, hammers to use in combat, etc ▪️Skills: There are dozens to unlock but not through a traditional skill tree. You'll find "Skill Books" hidden in the world, each of which open up the ability to unlock a new skill ▪️You can unlock a skill through earning and spending "Adventure Points", which you get by making discoveries, taking photos, etc ▪️One skill book teaches Indy "True Grit" for example, which lets him take a fatal blow in a fight but then retrieve his hat, dust himself off, and keep fighting ▪️Disguises: Throughout the game, opportunities arise where Indy can change into different sets of clothes to blend in and enter forbidden areas ▪️One example sees Indy dressing as a worker in Giza to enter a Nazi HQ at a dig site. There he finds a group of enemies playing cards inside a tent, and is immediately forced to fetch them a drink. You can go undetected by playing your role ▪️Another example has Indy dressing as a priest at the Vatican, though your disguise won't fool everyone ▪️Not centered around combat like past MachineGames titles, but gives you many ways to defend yourself ▪️UI is very light for "true immersion" in a fight, fistfighting is a mix of punches, dodges, grabs, pushes, blocks and parries, with the aim of breaking down an enemy's defenses until you can deliver a 'custom finisher' ▪️You can also use the whip to create more space in a fight or use environmental elements to finish enemies off quicker ▪️For tougher fights, Indy also has his revolver to finish off a threat quickly, though ammo is limited, as well as temporarily grab enemy weapons like a machine gun Previews IGN: VGC: Xbox Wire: #xbox #gamescom2024 #IndianaJones

I played 4 hours of The Blood of Dawnwalker - and it's damn good. My full thoughts below 👇 The version we played was in beta and running on some powerful PCs. It was from the beginning of the game so I wasn't able to explore the entire map. It felt pretty polished overall and I didn't experience any bugs or performance issues during my time. The game takes place in Vale Sangora - it's a beautiful valley near the Carpathian Mountains full of lush trees, bogs, mines, and all kinds of wildlife and villages and communities roughly comparable in size to The Witcher 3's Blood and Wine but packed with detail. There's a lot of neat history everywhere you look and explore, with references to Genghis Khan's hordes, the Tatars, and more. There are also little details that help make the setting a bit more real. Because Vale Sangora is run by the vampire leaders, silver is forbidden to have in your possession, and not every merchant will buy or sell them. It looks great visually, but I wouldn't say in a way that blew my socks off. Environments look good, trees, bushes etc all swaying in the wind, good lighting, character models are nicely detailed. It's not pushing things on a technical level but I found that perfectly ok. From the beginning of the game, a series of events introduces you to Coen's family - his parents and siblings. His father Pieter is a strong and stern caretaker who knows his way around a sword but deeply cares for his family. Coen's mother Esme is stricken by an illness that the whole family is trying to wrangle with, and his siblings are playful and endearing. As the vampires don't tolerate 'weakness', you start the feel the weight of the family's plight that gives off an aura of despair. At least in these initial hours, I found myself surprisingly growing attached pretty quickly. While there's an ominous metaphorical 'cloud' that hangs over the valley, there are bits of lightheartedness thrown in too. One charming quest saw me play tag with my siblings and go fishing in the old family hangout spot. Character performances and voice acting are excellent. There weren't really any characters that felt out place or miscast. I especially enjoyed the gravelly voices of Pieter and Brencis - the leader of the vampires. Brencis comes off formidable, and events in the game gave me a motivational drive for revenge, which I always like in games. The story is set up in a way that each of the vampire leaders needs to be taken down, with Brencis as the head honcho. You can attack them in any order, even going directly to Brencis from the outset, but you'll probably find you'll have a bit of trouble with that approach. While I've always been a little hesitant about plots that have open-ended structures, the team at Rebel Wolves told me that each vampire 'captain' is unique with many quests tailored to their specific stories, and there was a lot of effort and care put into each. They urge players to play through each storyline to get the most out of the game. There were lots of endearing characters in just the first few hours. Anca - a local herbalist and a witch, reminded me a lot of The Witcher 3's Keira. And she's a romance option. There are other sentient races as well, like the Uriash which I would say resemble something like the Qunari from Dragon Age. They're big, tough and brooding and are seen as monsters and somewhat shunned. There's a nice variety of monsters too, like kobolds who are basically ghouls that talk smack, and I came across the "Great Bog Wurm" in a swampy area which was it's own mini-boss fight. When I compare to something like The Witcher 3 (because many people understandably do with Dawnwalker given how the game looks and the makeup of the Rebel Wolves team), movement and navigation in the game felt fairly fluid overall. Walking, sprinting, vaulting ledges, etc were smooth. There's a bit of clunkiness when it comes to jumping, where I'd sometimes starting sliding jumping down a hill or onto rocks. There's also an ability that Coen automatically gets after he becomes a half-vampire called "Planeshift". It lets him teleport dash around the world so he can reach higher areas or across gaps. It felt a little clunky and imprecise when scaling things like towers and trying to land back on solid ground. There's a glossary/beastiary that's structured just like The Witcher 3, and the soundtrack is basically, you guessed it, The Witcher 3 in all the best ways. And like one of my favorite parts of The Witcher 3, there are plenty of points of interest that lead to unique little narrative beats or quests. One saw me come across a villager searching for his brother. Following that little quest line led me to a buried tomb which led to a boss fight with an ancient warrior and cool loot at the end. One abrupt encounter in the world saw me chase the village asshole talking shit about my family. When his drunkard father catches us arguing, he scolds him more and tells me I should teach him a lesson myself and beat him with a stick. I can choose to partake in it, stand by and watch, or stop the father in a physical altercation. There's been a lot of questions about combat and from what I played, I liked it, moreso than The Witcher 3's. There are two ways to play: directional and traditional. With directional combat, you hold down a shoulder button to block while aiming in whatever direction you see an enemy attacking from. That's either up, down, left or right. It's simpler than something like Kingdom Come and I got used to it real quick. It sometimes got a liiiittle overwhelming when multiple enemies are attacking at the same time - and they do that a lot. Enemies don't wait around for their turn, instead opting to gang up on you to take you down. There's also the traditional or 'standard' combat, which is basically pressing a button that blocks enemies no matter what direction (your standard action game). You can also expectedly parry enemies that open them up for more damage. There is a stamina meter that depletes with blocks, and it depletes faster if you're playing standard, though you can upgrade your stamina as you play too. There are active abilities you can put into quick slots for faster use during combat. As there's a day/night cycle and Coen is a 'dawnwalker' - meaning he's human during the day and a vampire at night, you can switch between your swords in daytime and bring out your claws at night, which are more powerful. There are many abilities, though because I was playing the first hours of the game, I didn't get to see them all. One that I got to use was a powerful charge attack, and another was a flurry of deadly slashes with my claws. You can drain enemies to regain health with 'voracious bite', though enemies won't wait around while you're doing it so you have to be mindful. There are shrines dotted around the map that you can use to fast travel and upgrade your skills. There are tons of resources and items in the world just like The Witcher that you can use to craft potions and the like. Some can only be done during the day or at night. In terms of time progression, there are 8 time 'segments' per day and certain quests and activities can push the time forward a set amount of segments. I thought I would hate it at first, but it actually makes for some compelling choices in how you choose to progress the game. You're always shown when an action will progress time by the way, so nothing will take you by surprise. Running around and exploring the world doesn't push time forward. When your vampiric health drops really low, you become hungry and start to really crave blood. You can even lose control during dialogue and drain the person you're talking to - including friends. I didn't encounter that myself but the devs said those can have lasting effects throughout the game. This has definitely jumped up my most anticipated list for the rest of the year. It's practically The Witcher 3: Medieval Vampire Edition with its own flavor and unique mechanics and honestly...that is something I'm quite happy about. #BloodofDawnwalker
