Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 First off doom eternal seems really good. The demo is from the beginning of the game but the few weapons available were fun to use and the dashing is a good addition. Now for the stadia experience, I have to say it was a bit disappointing. Doom had obvious resolution issues and the image quality just wasn’t there. The controls were definitely smooth and responsive, so technically speaking it probably still offering a the best streaming solution on the market, but there’s no chance that it’ll be a threat to consoles or any or other traditional gaming platform. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) I’m at PAX west. They actually have a bunch of triple A shit here that I wasn’t expecting. I wanted to play FF7R but the line has been maxed out since this morning. Edited August 30, 2019 by Twinblade Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,608 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Ahh cool. So you played it in a controlled environment too. Wonder how it will be , along with XCloud in a real life setting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently that’s a really nice & scenic route, but I’m not sure if I can fit into into my schedule. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m actually on the ferry right now heading home. Edited August 31, 2019 by Ike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) Other quick thoughts -Nintendo keeps on killing it. They must have the most dedicated fans in the business, people were waiting for hours to play Luigi’s Mansion 3 and the link’s awakening remake. -played the medieval remake. Meh. Combat did not feel good and it seems unforgiving. I died near the end of the first level and it made me do it all over again. -played trials of mana. Seems alright, combat feels like a mashup of tales and star ocean. -The FF8 remaster looks sharp, including even the CG cutscenes - I didn’t win any swag 😒 Edited August 31, 2019 by Twinblade 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

roflpwnedz 289 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Just finished Doom 2016 and enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. Can't wait for Eternal 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) Stadia's certainly a better value proposition than Xflop currently. Stadia even has true exclusive games which xbox doesn't. Xcloud "would you ship that?" is also nowhere close to done + reportedly inferior in quality to stadia. what a world.
