Man, I have become waaay too cynical and jaded in my old age. I see a statement by Sony that sounds like they want to step back and let serious matters take center stage, but immediately go to the place of thinking "Pffft, they don't have anything good ready to show and are looking for a good excuse to stall!"...
I don't think it's the case since today they were actually advertising the event on tv, so they did want to show stuff (also, they announced it 1 week ago). If we wish to sound cynical and marketing-wise, it's more like "1/3 of our global market is busy rioting, better postpone everything when people will actually watch the show and be willing to buy our console".Man, I have become waaay too cynical and jaded in my old age.

Also, this move is good for the company's image.

But I'm not blaming Sony for this, I'm blaming the situation (and don't want to go political since it's forbidden by the forum rules).
At this point I hope the situation will be fine by the 11th and that the night city wire won't be affected as well.
EDIT: GODDAMN, I was right.

This pretty much sums up how I felt when I first watched the trailer.
GOT reminds me more of Assassin's Creed than anything, which isn't a bad thing. I've been hoping Ubisoft would announce an AC game that would take place during that feudal era of Japan since probably AC II or Brotherhood. I've also been seriously craving a more realistic samurai game that doesn't have so many of the fantasy elements like you see in Nioh or Sekiro for quite some time now. The atmosphere in this game seems great as well, which is always a big plus for me.
It does feel at least slightly underwhelming, though. Not even entirely sure why. A lot of aspects of the game do seem like they're just copied and pasted from other open world games. Makes some things feel very basic and recycled, or rushed. Would be nice to see something new. Also, the game looks great overall, but as a graphics whore I can't help but wish it looked a little sharper.
It's the only upcoming game I'm excited about aside from CP2077 so here's hoping Sucker Punch delivers.

Playing VirtuaVerse. Pretty good Cyberpunk adventure game: https://www.gog.com/game/virtuaverse
Soundtrack is very good too: https://masterbootrecord.bandcamp.com/album/virtuaverse-ost

I should play this one someday (on PC), if only for its comedic charm at least.
A very good game, even though it was a bit buggy experience on Linux. They never updated it on GOG though past certain older version. Steam got all the updates, which is annoying.
Just finished VirtuaVerse. The ending was strange.
Great soundtrack though!

Hey guys,
I am currently writing my Bachelor thesis in the field of Linguistics and would greatly appreciate your help. In my study I want to investigate the perception of different language varieties of English (accents ) spoken in the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and examine in how far these perceptions affect the creation of characters in video games.
Conditions to participate:
Must be English native speaker
I am looking for both people who played or did not play the game and the questionnaire will approximately take 15 min.
Please click the link to be redirected to the questionnaire: https://forms.gle/hogvMJoyXdeY4RseA.
Feel free to forward the link to any person that might be interested in the study and if you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me via patricia.meier@hhu.de.
I would really appreciate your participation

Ubisoft = leaks.
Just a reminder that the PS5 event will start in 1 hour.
I thought it was valid only for CDPR stuff, not other games. Sorry!
Thanks...once I knew what I was looking for, didn't take to long to find it. The Switch version of Odyssey looks great!
