It would have been better if it were a live service
Shame itās made by EA
It's published by EA. There's always the hope that they learn what people like and stop doing the lousy things, which they have done in a handful of different things, but then when they don't, you just shop elsewhere.
Can't seem tot buy it without paying for the EA subscription shite on Xbox so I'll wait.
My partner and I have played 4 hours so far. It is definitely a good game, feels smooth platforming wise. Also isn't 'easy' (casual gamer standards) since it has a lot of different types of gameplay that they throw at you and makes you think on your feet. For instance, my partner (who is a gamer, but only for certain genres) had trouble with flying/driving in some sections.
So far a 5/5 game. I did come across some bugs, but nothing annoying or game breaking. Just funny 'hiccups' like sticking to objects that can be fixed by just button mashing or something.
Does anyone know if the writing is any better than It Takes Two? My gf and I loved the gameplay in that game but the writing was just awful.
It's way better in my opinion. My fiancƩ and I have the same opinion about ITT as you described, and we both enjoy Split Fiction much more!
Itās not.
Iām still pretty early on but the dialogue is awful, and the two main characters are authors whose best ideas for novels amount to trolls and cyber ninjas. Not exactly unique or inspiring books guys. (Maybe this is some sort of point or satire I havenāt hit yet but I doubt it)
At least, like It Takes Two, the gameplay is reasonably enjoyable, particularly if youāre playing with someone who doesnāt play games a lot. Itās flashy in that Uncharted sort of way that will make them go āwhoa coolā.
It has perfect review scores so it must be way better than ITT, which, I agree, ended horribly, as if maybe they were rushed or out of budget by the end or something. I look forward to SF way more.
I don't know if it's amazing writing, but I was cringing less often with this one than i was with 'it takes two'
I canāt compare, since Iāve never seen or played ITT, but the dialogue in Split Fiction feels natural.
ITT's ending was extremely disappointing and some of the writing felt artificial or plot-forced, like not how the characters would behave based on how their values were developed earlier. It doesn't seem like SF has this problem.
Well deserved. Iāve been watching friends play it on Twitch, and theyāre having a blast
This is exactly the kind of game I love to watch others stream, but I know I wouldn't get through the tutorial.
Hazelnut has a lot of potential and their previous games are absolutely awesome. Cannot wait to grab Split Fiction anytime soon.
Not the kind of game I enjoy playing very often, but it's been great watching streamers try it out. It just looks fun.
I tried the friend pass in demo with MKB + controller, it looks awesome so I didn't go far because I don't want to spoil me anything.
My partner and I will definitely be getting it, but for now we're deep into Wilds.
