I gotta say, EA was merciful. If they opened up with that cinematic, people would have RAGED. | ||

Gotta be a gutsy game director who says "exploration, combat, multiplayer and gearing were the best parts of Mass Effect". | ||

These perspective cuts every 10 seconds is making this very difficult to follow. | ||

Anthem just looks like a Destiny rip-off except with Iron Man suits. Genna Bain is still doing Snarkathon. It's worth it to make this kind of presentation watchable. | ||

Gotta be a gutsy game director who says "exploration, combat, multiplayer and gearing were the best parts of Mass Effect". SWTOR is their push into that market. Anthem isnt an MMO. And if that's what Biogames have historically sucked at those things, I think they're changing it completely around for this game. | ||

Lucky for them they still have the moral high ground against Rotti Hydrobot from last year. | ||

Anthem looks extremely generic, definitely waiting on this one. The only true highlight for me was Sea of Solitude, that looked pretty cool. 3/10 for EA overall | ||

I just wish developers would combine these awesome engines with some actually interesting gameplay instead of the safest open world and combat design possible. I would think every game developer deep inside wants to push boundaries and break the mold with gameplay and mechanics, but the reality of +$50 million budgets from studios like EA means they have to play safe and appeal to the majority with iterative designs. | ||

I think the gameplay does look interesting compared to similiar games. Its a game with more class identity (at least with the Division and Destiny, I cant speak for Warframe) , it seems to be way more vertical, and theres a lot more momentum involved. | ||

They said no lootboxes, no P2W, and microtransactions on cosmetics. That's pretty good if they don't change their minds on this. | ||
