I wonder if the f2p model for this will be well done? I’m of the mind that God Eater should’ve tried a f2p version, with microtransactions for cosmetics (Lord knows there’s TONS in that game). Just to shore up the online community and build mind-share/brand awareness for that (those, since Resurrection and Rage Burst are often bundled together) title.
I don’t know if Dauntless will be able to match up God Eater or Toukiden Kiwami (I hear the PC Port is a bit butt, but on the PS4, it was fantastic), but I do hope it pulls off f2p well at least. That’ll be a pretty major accomplishment for this subgenre of action-RPG, tbh. Hope the game looks good in the end; their early stuff has looked too early if you ask me, with rough looking models and empty, bland areas desperately in need of 2 or 3 more art passes. And heck, even if they polish that up, the visual “target” revealed in the announce trailer doesn’t look spectacular unless you like angular, western, CG cartoons. But I’m crossing my fingers and hoping for the best 😀
I hope the boob and dong physics are on point for this. Conan Exiles has ruined me.
If the characters don’t hang like a horse, like Zatara and me, then I’m out.
Free to play? i dont care atll all then it will ba a crap game. As for requiremnts iam sure that my i5 2500k gtx 970 and 12 gb ram will run 1440p maxed perfectly!
I have a GTX1060 and 16GB ram which is good but my cpu is an FX8350 which is a bunch weaker than a i7, hopefully I can still run the game at 1080p60 at high settings! Admittedly a game inspired by MH and DS sounds like my dream game, I wish I didn’t hear about it till it released though as I hate waiting!
There are gameplay footage out now, but the game in its current state looks boring mmo grind.
