Hi all,


I thought that it would be great to start a thread on the topic "What upcoming new games (any platform) are you looking forward to!?"

I'll start with a few (in no particular order)....

Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O.
Virtua Fighter Project (6)
Resident Evil 9
Okami (Sequel)

Ghost of Yotei

Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines II (maybe this will finally come out in 2025...? 🤪)
 
I like RPGs, but is it me, or are these all dark, gothic plots? Some big strides in cinematics and facial animation, but nothing here that grabs me at first glance. 2 names: Witcher 4 and Dawn of Bloodwalker. In my old age, consistently dark environments are turning me off. 🤔

Steel Hunters- Two player team, 5 teams, Extraction Shooter in early access. Play it on The WarGaming Portal or Steam. I’ve been playing World of Warships for almost 10 years, by the same developer, cursing frequently, but continue to play because even though you rely on 11-14 other players (your team), against another team of 15 players, the gameplay is more strategic, than frantic tactical. And I can play solo with a group of strangers.

Yes, frequently your team sucks and you lose, but I find this easier to deal with instead of teams of two which you find in SH, which I have not played only watched trailers.





Teams of 2, possibly paired with strangers who refuse to respawn if they get mad. I’d think spawning would be automatic, maybe their players are just quitting the match before it’s over leaving their teammate hanging. I don’t want to be tied to one other stranger nor be forced to play coop. At least with a team of 15 such as WoWS, you can mitigate one bad player most of the time or you’re just faced with a bad team. Your chances seem better with the larger team instead of paired. Also, I imagine they’ll be people living on this game playing together and you won’t stand a chance as a casual player. Of course, maybe I’m wrong.🤔

Star Wars Outlaws 2024 has been marked down to $35 (from $70) on Steam till 5May. Would you recommend it? I'm playing the Demo, nice graphics, nice atmosphere. You have a critter as a companion.

I loved it. I didn't play it until after the 3rd major patch, and by that point I think a lot of the "clunky" stealth mechanics had been fixed.


I mean it's still trendy not to like it because they made the main character ugly and because you can knock out a stormtrooper by punching them in the helmet, but then it's a game. I don't think strict adherence to reality is THAT important.

I enjoyed it. It wasn't prefect but by the 3rd patch I thought it was good.

I like RPGs and action RPGs. This was a typical Ubisoft action RPG.

Did you play on the PC? If so, maybe you could help me with my Grapple Hook issue. :)

edit: The grapple hook issue may have been completely operator error, but not sure. A big giant E appears when you are in position to use the grapple hook with a grapple point, and before a patch, when thinking I had this issue I never saw an E. It’s possible I was not in range of the suspect grapple hook, that I could not get to work. 🤔

Crosswind on PC, especially after Atlas was abandoned by that horrible company Snail Games USA. I’d love a good modern pirate survival game.
 
Witcher 4, Vampire: Bloodlines 2, followup to Cyberpunk 2077 and Larions next game.
But I guess Vampire Bloodlines 2 will be far from the amazing original, it takes a rare dedication to come up with something like that.
