  • Arkane is dead, long live the WolfEye!
    @ZaidH Localization is challenging work. Especially in cutscenes, you not only need to translate the text but also edit it in such a way that the time to say lines in original and localized is as close as possible. It is sometimes hard, I would imagine especially in Japan/English audio localization... ver más
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH I am really not sure why they decided to make it that big, it could have been 2, 3 times as small and it would have been fine. I mean, it even has roads. You know, with cars that drive and can hit you. That's a rare thing for Yakuza games. Normally you are in pedestrian-only areas with very... ver más
  • Check out Blizzard's WoW "Threads of Destiny" trailer!
    @Saka They released another trailer for the upcoming expansion: ver más
  • Arkane is dead, long live the WolfEye!
    @ZaidH I have some NDAs that bind me for life from some of the other places that I worked in, but gaming companies did not have them for quite as long, and it never forbade me from revealing titles after the release. Though my role was in translation and localization, I was working on... ver más
  • Epic Games Store Free Game 15-22 August!
    @Aapje Thank you for this! @halonfire, you may want to take a look at Death's Gambit: Afterlife, it is another metroidivania. ver más
  • The Borderlands movie is bad...people say.
    @DracoTarot I hear it pokes fun at current social media culture in a clever enough way (most of the time), and it addresses a specific issue that is prevalent these days. So it may be one of those series that are better watched when they come out because they are not as sharp further down the line. ver más
  • And finally, Disney's other plans!
    @Saka This whole production has so far been so full of controversy and other issues, that I wonder if it would not be easier to just pull the plug. It may be another Borderlands waiting to happen. Then again, Disney is a bit wobbly to me in general lately. I hope they follow through and start... ver más
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH Well, not only as cleansers, I mean, other genres and games are good in their own right, too. But they also happen to be a remedy for situations like this. No, no such luck, it is actually quite widely spread and does not have more interiors than older Yakuza games. It does have dungeons... ver más
  • And finally, Disney's other plans!
    @Saka I do not follow him all that closely, I only know him from GoT and that cameo somewhere in Avengers, not sure what else he is up to. But it may be that the issue is more complex than that. I mean, in a balanced and stable industry, no one person should be able to determine what is good and... ver más
  • A few animation news!
    @ramax It does give dimension, I agree, but then, One Piece has so many special effects with those paranormal abilities that characters have, it is long and extensive to make live. Anime is much cheaper and faster in that regard. But Netflix did a decent job with the first season so far. ver más
  • A few animation news!
    @Saka It is a Middle Dutch tale, I do not know it either. But hey, we will not have spoilers then, eh? 😉 Just as well, One Piece is so long, it will take a while for Netflix to work up the episodes unless they cut out a lot. So you may as well wait until there is more to see. But then, you may... ver más
  • A few animation news!
    @AmrAli1 I do not trust Netflix because they keep cancelling some series that I think should not be cancelled. But for you, maybe it's because they failed with Cowboy Beebop? ver más
  • A few animation news!
    Hello Legion Gamers! A bit of news for our animation connoisseurs. @Saka, @GoLLuM13, @ramax and @AmrAli1, that means you, among others! The first news comes from the Netherlands, they are working on an animated version of the legendary tale of Karel & Elegast, it will be called The King & The... ver más
  • Epic Games Store Free Game 8-15 August!
    @ChristianRasmussen Really? As far as I know, it changes on the last day at 18:00. So it would be different now, but it should have been still going this morning. Maybe they changed the rules, I will look into it. Thank you for the shout! ver más
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH It was tough, took me between half a year and a year to recover... LAD is more tactical, yeah, the more common JRPG tactics. So it feels different. To me, it also felt a bit...I want to say empty. It is set in a very big area, normally Yakuza games are packed in a relatively small... ver más
  • Arkane is dead, long live the WolfEye!
    @ZaidH I was involved in several game developments in a few different companies, and in my experience it is a much more hectic process than it may seem. In big teams, often left hand does not know what the right one is doing, there are changes on the go and plans for day-one patches months before... ver más
  • And finally, Disney's other plans!
    @Saka It is fantasy, but to me, computer animation is not on that flawless level yet. It occasionally looks creepy to me. But I guess the Grimm Brothers would appreciate, unedited versions of their fables are rather gory. About dwarves, they kept changing them, yeah. I thought the first time... ver más
  • Farewell Game Informer...
    @ZaidH I had a Yakuza burnout when I had to format my disk in the middle of Yakuza 4. Took me a while to get back into it and do all that all over again. For me, changing the genre helps. Like going tactics or metroidivnia or something other than RPG for a while. ver más
  • Arkane is dead, long live the WolfEye!
    @ZaidH Probably, but as you mentioned, functionality is there already, game allows one respec. I would think changing it would not be too time-consuming. Even if not deeper in-game integration like ripperdoc service, just changing that menu function from single-use to multiple uses should have been... ver más
  • And finally, Disney's other plans!
    @Saka Maybe snow is of a different colour in that fairytale land 😅 Which trailer do you mean, the new one with CGI gnomes? To me, it looked too computer-animated, makes me wonder if they used any real locations at all. I guess it may be a less significant change indeed because, as you said, one... ver más
