Today's highlights for me:
- New Legacy of Kain game + Defiance Remaster. I love the LoK series, although I could not tough it out with BO1 and SR2. I liked Defiance, but just stopped after a while and now I can just easily start over, hopefully with some better cameras + controls.
- Castlevania: Belmont's Curse. CV has always been a series I wanted to dive deeper into, but just never really could stand some of the controls and game design. I have played probably 5 CV games and only finished one (Super 4). But this looks to be right up my alley, hopefully with some modern design sensibilities (i.e. no 2-way dash with shoulder buttons and no cheaply placed enemies requiring pre-emptive knowledge, etc)
- Death Stranding 2 on PC.
- More Dead or Alive!
- Crimson Moon
- Yakoh Shinobi Ops
- John Wick game
- News/updates for previously revealed games like 007, RE9, Pragmata, Beast of Reincarnation, Neva, Marathon, and kinda Marvel Tokon (I'm still on the fence with how excited I am for the game).
Lowlights:
- SH Townfall. Another SH game not set in SH. Which I don't mind. But it better have some connection to the town of SH, even if it's only implied, like SHf's White Claudia reference. But if more and more SH games are not set in SH, then it seems to just be an anthology series and no longer a SH series. But again, kinda depends on how it's all handled. I'm not a fan of the "SH Phenomena" retcon.
