Eh, I agree it's fucked but the rest of their content is on point. That interview is kinda a mess though eh.

Yeah, it's a positive. Just not eyecatching or exciting, or at least it hasn't been yet. Marketing might make a difference for hype next month.
People called horizon zero dawn a far cry Ubisoft clone too pre-release. Spider-Man didn't do nothing new nor innovate but it was still an extremely fun game. I never expected Bend to innovate but I do expect a very solid game and enjoyable experience.
But you know a studio that hasn't worked on a modern AAA game I don't have overblown expectation some do here.

Kaz, in already freaking out! We need a stealth game back.. Splinter Cell is MIA this gen and MGS is done for
We need Syphon Filter back
The worst interview i ever read in my life...
Garvin was great with the "great questions" zinger at the end lol.
The IGN video preview bashed the game for having yet another white male protagonist, kind of agree, it is a tired trope, seems to be getting lot of backlash though.
To me it is. Read a lot of previews and the game looks to deliver loads of fun with cool mechanics to play around with.
But you're probably one of those guys that will still shit on the game even if it scores 90+ on MC, so that's cool. It's probably not for you then.
How good is the shooting? Enemy reaction,animation, ragdoll, visible wound, gore, hit detaction etc.
In this trailer you can se a freakers eating a newts, i will make a gif of that.
It seemed particularly negative, pessimistic and rude, almost like they were less interested in answers and instead more focused on wanting to insult or demean the dev, their choices or their work. It sort of diminishes their credibility somewhat.
Also, how does Deacon represent the generic bald space marine type exactly? Yes he's white, but how many video game leads are tatooed up actual biker gang members dressed the way he is? I wonder if Metro could name all these other apparent similar examples.
Seems like a mostly positive response thus far, though let's face it, previews tend to be. The general impression I'm getting is that it's a mechanically-able game that does well by the open-world format, but plays things safe and isn't aiming to innovate in any particular way. I predict lots of 7s and 8s on the way.
Given how critical you've been of Days Gone in the recent past, to the point of being both mass accused of shitposting and catching a ban, I figured you'd be fully on board with this line of questioning. As someone who thinks Days Gone looks relatively run-of-the-mill, I think these are pertinent queries and don't see a problem with them being raised.
This sort of thing is par-the-course for the Metro journo anyway. He never shies way from asking the hard questions. Y'all should read the interviews he's done with Jim Ryan, they're way worse!

Any new gameplay video without commentary?
I'm on mobile right now, so it's hard to look for one...

No, and I'm not shitting on this game. My first post you replied to was partially about how Days Gone might be a big success precisely because it has qualities of wide appeal.
This is music to my ears. Looking ambitious with its open world systems.
Also I'm digging the bike more every time I see it.
Fine for you not to like the interview, but painting gamecentral with the same brush as the rest of the metro site is ludicrous.
MASSIVE story spoilers in the beginning of this preview, ffs.
Or maybe they found the game dull and generic and thought they would reflect those thoughts in their questioning?
In the past the devs confirmed that deacon doesn't meet any friend or family or important character in freaker form.
How are they lukewarm? That's just a couple of them, the majority are very positive.

Always.
I wish demos were still a thing but I guess people accepted "beta" in the place of them.

Which is too bad.. Betas a month before a game comes out makes no sense.
Anyhow, I applause Capcom for doing so with RE2 and DMC
It sounds like the GTA3 of zombie games. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
This are quite good news, too bad no performance mode after that 60fps trailer :/
Yeah it is just a buzz word to make people believe they aren't getting a paid demo. I saw through it the first time but I wish other people did.
Agreed on Capcom, especially RE2 R which only hyped me to get the game.
Metro's interviews are always like this. They ask the real questions.
i havent seen anything personally outside of the trailers that show on the playstation channel, but i hope in the next couple of we get this massive ad campaign, billboards etc..
Hope this game becomes huge!
