Udvarnoky Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Guess we didn't already have a thread for this. Making one now because there's something called the "Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase" happening on Sunday, and some people seem to think there may be a peek at Indy out of the event. Whether that's true or whether they're gonna pull the ol' Devolver Special on you poor saps remains to be seen, but there it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staple Remover Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I feel like a 2023 release alongside the movie is realistic, so we should see some trailer! But then again I said the same thing yesterday too with Devolver… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 To be honest, I'm fully expecting a wannabe Uncharted from this. But what I AM really excited about (weirdly, just like with the fifth Indy movie) is the soundtrack. The last Indy game was Staff of Kings, which got a hybrid orchestral/samples soundtrack. By now, fully orchestral soundtracks are the norm for AAA games, and someone like Gordy Haab could surely compose something that at least sounds really close to John Williams.

Rum Rogers Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Well an authentic Indy experience with Uncharted vibes would still be fucking amazing, wouldn'it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 When done right, yeah. I can't fully see Indy working as a shooter (he's pretty well defined as not killing everyone in sight), though Emperor's Tomb at least had the right idea (if a bit comically executed) regarding hand-to-hand combat. If the game focuses more on the puzzles and action setpieces, I'm in. Ah, who am I kidding, I'll get this no matter what. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rum Rogers Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 MachineGames made that amazing Wolfenstein reboot, so even as an FPS we're probably in for a treat. I totally trust them, I just hope it's gonna be something that leans more toward Uncharted but yeah, I'll get it in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be happy to be proven pessimistic, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rum Rogers Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Well, the Bethesda Showcase invitation ticket also includes an Indy whip 👀 Edited June 11, 2022 by Rum Rogers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vainamoinen Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Uncharted has really developed. I started the series with part four / A Thief's End, which still had way too many combat sequences for me. I went back to play the Remastered stuff, but never finished part 1, this long long line of shooting sequences. Lost Legacy, for me, was almost perfect. The story focus was strong, the main characters great, there was the flirt with an open world (and even a map). Still too many repetitive mechanics (I am a P&C adventure fan after all). I don't think that MachineGames would ever make "my dream Indiana Jones game", which would be a FOA reboot anyway, but if they tailor it after Uncharted, it would be great if they'd take lessons from what Uncharted did not so badly in their earlier parts. And Indiana Jones was never the guy to frantically jump around, climb rock faces, go into a gun fight armed with more than six bullets. He's never been a Nathan Drake. Also, Game companies these days seem mortally afraid of releasing a game that takes "just" ten to fifteen hours to complete. That's a trend that could really change.

Udvarnoky Posted June 13, 2022 Author Share Posted June 13, 2022 Sounds like nothing Indy-related came out of the event. I don't think the game is particularly far along at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anothercustard Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 They were only showing games due to be released in the next 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rum Rogers Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Sucks. Plus I just found out that invitation ticket was fan-made, apologies for mistakenly spreading some misinformation here. Seemed pretty legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me try it this way. “I am feeling pretty confident that we will not see a Return to Monkey Island trailer today.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udvarnoky Posted August 26 Author Share Posted August 26 Keep watching your cholesterol, as the game has achieved a status of "midway". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vainamoinen Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 (edited) I love how Jason immediately draws the Beyond Good & Evil 2 comparison – a game that is highly unlikely to ever release especially since all it ever should have been will now be poured into Star Wars Outlaws. The new Indy game was clearly meant to release with Dial of Destiny. That failed. But Dial of Destiny also bombed, so there's reason number two to never even finish this. 😩 I'm so fed up with this industry.

neoncolor8 Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 'Star Wars - Outlaws' sounds like the Lucas-franchise crossover I've been waiting for! 'Grim Fandango - Afterlife' would come to mind, or 'Indiana Jones - Secret weapons of the Luftwaffe'! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
