That’s a bold claim with Gollum on the field.

This real actual cutscene from the game might sway your opinion: https://v.redd.it/jdc6sdq4pqub1

I stand very much corrected. There’s some real competition out there this year.

Yeah. What’s even happening. It’s like it was put together by one intern who didn’t know the animation software.

Here's every cutscene. I'm astounded that they were able to make Kong feel smaller and lighter than any human actor in a costume ever has before

Thanks in advance, piped bot

Wait this looks amazing. Is this video supposed to dissuade me because now I'm interested.

What do you mean. This looks like the most amazing 2am game night waiting to happen

As always lawl

Mega removed from a trash site. Do you have a mirror, I’m’ super curious!

Well. That's impressively bad. Like genuinely impressive that they managed to make a game bad enough to give Gollum some competition as the worst game of the year.

[–] Targox@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Visually this might be a 0/10 (1/10 for me because it reminds me of Gmod) but who knows; gameplay-wise it might be a 6/10. That’s still better than Gollum, which scores 0/10 on both criteria. We’ll see

[–] dandroid@dandroid.app 3 points 1 year ago

I watched some gameplay, and it looked like a 0/10. Combat was just spamming the same button. A boss fight was just roll, attack, roll, attack, roll, attack, and you'll never get hit. Falling through the map when jumping. Asset placeholders not replaced. Animations not finished. It looks like a game that should have had another 2 or more years in the oven.

Wow. That's laughably-bad.
