I'm sure Insomiac can come up with their own tragic backstory for Laura. The origin they came up for Miles is different from the comics one.
It seems like they’re starting motion capture for the game pretty soon which is cool!
I’m so pumped for this. Don’t even own a PS5 but will buy one just for this game.
“Not as good as I once was… but I’m as good, once, as I ever was.”
I'm not going to get a PS5 for this but I'm hoping it will eventually be playable on PC via... PlayStation Now?
And CDPR killed it with The Witcher 3. Their last game before Cyberpunk.
I mean everybody shall do what makes themhappy but Im very careful now when it comes to getting myself hyped for games. I got burned far too often over years for that to be any other way.
The gaming scene is not a good field to work in. That much has become more and more apparent as gaming got bigger and bigger. Just look up all the reported cases of crunch times and people getting burned out. Even the big and successful ones can fail. Look what happened to Bioware or Blizzard. Devs at the top of the game at one point and now only shadow of their former selves.
Especially when it comes to licensed games things can go into the wrong direction. Sure Spider-Man or the Arkham games worked out but the list of games that didn't quite work out is actually quite a bit longer. Marvel's Avengers anyone?
Witcher 3 had too many issues when it first released and it improved upon the course of the time. The gameplay mechanics while certainly going to be different due to different characters. The scope and the direction of the game will be similar to Spider-Man games because they are both grounded characters. So Insomniac don't really have a lot of things to do While Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk are apples and oranges
We will just have to see. It's not like the game is releasing any time soon anyway.
I don’t know how comparable this can be to Cyberpunk or Avengers (yet) - I doubt Wolverine is aiming to break the mould like Cyberpunk, and I REALLY doubt it’ll be as disappointing as Avengers, seeing as it’s single player and story driven, I can’t imagine it failing as hard.
At the moment it definitely seems most comparable to Guardians Of The Galaxy and Spider-Man obviously. If the story is as good and engaging as GOTG with great combat, sets, and character designs I’ll be happy!
The only thing I’m worried about is that I wasn’t the biggest fan of some design and story elements from Spider-Man, but I think this can be avoided with Wolverine due to the fact it’s most likely taking place in a fictional setting (Madripoor). Not to mention the last Wolverine game was 13 years ago
