EA poured a lot of resources into this game. They sacrificed ME: Andromeda so that Bioware's A team could focus solely on this IP. I ran through two hours of the game yesterday and found it boring and a chore to finish at times. There's no enthusiasm from the community over Anthem. I posted a video on my Twitter account and followers said it looked like Destiny.

I don’t get it what the issue is. It is a loot MMO shooter. They are all very similar in ways. The Division included.

And it’s not like destiny. The gun play isn’t crisp at all in my opinion where in destiny that is the one piece that makes it shine and where bungie ****s on every other developer.
Now to get back to anthem you probably aren’t playing it right. It’s a game based on abilities where the guns come second. It’s about priming a target (say freezing it) then unload an R1 hit or your up ability. Now when your abilities recharge you can use your guns but guns shouldn’t be your primary damage. By doing combos with abilities your finishing up ability recharged even faster.
Second of all like Ohleo said, it’s a MMO looter so I don’t see where the problem lies? It’s exsctly as it was advertised to be. Plus Andromeda is considered probably one of the worse games Bioware has done in recent years so I don’t see your anger there

The only think I can critique is the performance of the beta.
Server and frame rate issues.
But it is also the beta and things that we know will be ironed out.

Andromeda failed because out of the five year scope, it had 18 months of development time by a team that has never done a full AAA title. They were the DLC team. This is well documented that Bioware's A team was put on this IP.
I've played The Division as well. Got rid of it after a month. I'm not some new jack who expected to be blown away. The E3 reveal got a very lukewarm reception. I'm not the only one who feels this way about the game.

So you didn’t like the division which is another looter shooter and then said well maybe anthem is different maybe I’ll like this? Do you see your shortfall? Maybe you just aren’t built for that MMO type game life which is perfectly understandable.
Everyone of us gravitates to certain games. Now I probably won’t buy anthem because the end game feels boring based on what they said. If it’s just harder strongholds then it’s just meh to me. But at the same time to totally **** on the game isn’t fair because the game seems fine. Plus this is an old build of the game. Probably from November-September if it was my guess.

D Double did you just say that the PS4 will breeze by the PS2 or do you mean they’ll breeze by the Wii and PS1?
I don’t know when we’ll see another system surpass the PS2. Backwards compatibility and cheapest DVD player around at the time of release just might be a little too much for a new console to overcome.
I meant breeze by Wii and PS1
PS2 is too high a target. Consoles these days have way too much in them to be sold for $99 like the PS2.
That being said PS4 is ahead of the PS2 for the same time frame and has been $299 for ages so who knows
I think when it's all said and done PS4 will land around 120-130 million LTD.

All this Anthem talk reminded me of the PS5 reddit leak from the guy who leaked that Sony wasn't going to have an E3 conference.
This is the bit about Anthem:
I haven't played the game but wondered how the performance of the beta is.
I'm basically trying to verify the leak
For those who missed it here's the compilation of the leaks.

Obviously take with a grain of salt.

Yeah for sure.
It is even harder because we don’t know how to play
But everything else is there IMO and it feels like a legit anime

What are you trying to confirm about Anthem? That it runs terrible on consoles?

Naw we really want a release date for PS5 so we can know when to stop buying games that will definitely be remastered next gen. Information on Final Fantasy XVI would be dope too

How many flagship games were remastered for the PS4 from last gen? GTA, Uncharted, Shadow of the Colossus, Silent Hill, TLOU, KH, FF, Resident Evil, God of War the list goes on. I guess you should stop buying games now because they will all be remasters again and again.

Anything we should be looking forward this year?
Announcement of a new game (maybe a classic game being remade like dinocrisis or syphon filter) or a new console?
