This added level of customization makes each player's trip through Metal Gear Solid 5 as a personalized Venom Snake unique, as everyone will decide that different options are important. Missing out on certain loadouts by the end of the game can be disruptive, but overall, the ability to invest in items is a huge part of MGS5 . Then there's the recruitment feature that fuels this entire system, by picking up enemies to bring onto Snake's side and gain their benefits to unlock better equipm
Some trailers or marketing campaigns take this a step too far by giving fans too much information. Whether by virtue of the content itself or fans making inferences, it can ruin the surprise. And that's the ultimate let down: building up all that suspense only to shut it down right before the release. It's happened in every generation and PS4 is no exception, taking some of its biggest titles and throwing the high point in our fa
Every time E3 rolls around, a certain excitement is felt throughout the entire Gaming Backlog industry. Studios are excited to show what they've been working on and gaming enthusiasts are able to see what the future of video games looks like. While that excitement is certainly felt across the board for anyone who loves games, there's also a little disappointment after E3 ends each year for those hoping to see a specific game that turned out to be nowhere to be found. There's plenty to be seen next week at E3 2021 , but there's bound to be a few big games that skip the confere
One of the best moments in the game is the surprise dark moment at the very beginning of the game. Joel loses his daughter, an event that sets him on his nihilistic path. However, the trailer takes this moment away from new players as it shows off the improved graphics for the shiny new
Specifically, this would be the recruitment system that drives much of MGS5 and allows Venom Snake to build up the Diamond Dogs and empower his research and development systems. So, given that unlocking and fabricating gear is an important part of planning deliveries in Death Stranding , the same mechanic could be better refined in a world that has fewer resources and people to pull f
Fans were disappointed that the new Fable game did not make an appearance at E3 2021, though the game is confirmed to be in development at Playground Games. Little is known about the new Fable beyond its existence. Rumors and leaks have suggested that it will be a fully open-world title, but the only official look that fans have gotten is its official teaser trai
The trailer did not show any gameplay, but it did give fans some information on the new Fable . The trailer does have a comedic tone, which aligns well with the series' historically light-hearted character. The trailer also features a fairy and a medieval sword before panning up to reveal a fantasy castle in the distance. While it may seem obvious, the cinematic trailer seems to imply that Fable will return to the series' earlier setting that was more similar to a traditional fantasy world. Fable 2 introduced early firearms while Fable 3 took the world of Albion to the industrial revolution, but Fable 's cinematic trailer looked as though it will return to the days of bows and swords. However, it is unclear if Fable will be a direct sequel to Fable 3 or if it will be a reboot for the franch
One of the many games delayed into 2022, Hogwarts Legacy is unlikely to make an E3 2021 appearance . Despite initially planning to release later this year, it seems like there's still a ways to go in the game's development. There is a handful of Warner Bros. games that fans are itching to see including Hogwarts Legacy , Gotham Knights , and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League , but the only game the studio will be showing at E3 2021 will be Back 4 Blood . Some fans might hope for another look at Hogwarts Legacy in the form of a "one more thing"-type announcement, but that seems unlik
This is one of the most important quests from a story perspective, as it reveals much about Leif and his backstory . Upon defeating the boss of Chapter 4, Team Snakemouth will find a Peculiar Gem. It can be used in Snakemouth Den to unlock a previously inaccessible dungeon, complete with unique enemies and an optional b
As much as Nintendo fans might hope and pray, Metroid Prime 4 will most likely be absent from its 40-minute presentation on Tuesday. Metroid Prime 4 has had development issues that caused the entire project to be rebooted in 2020, so it's unlikely that the game will be ready to be shown off in its current state. Additionally, Nintendo clarified that its showcase will revolve primarily around games releasing later in 2021, so, despite many studios announcing things releasing over the next few years, Nintendo is focused on the rest of this year. If development is ahead of schedule, Metroid Prime 4 could potentially be showcased at a future Nintendo Direct towards the end of the year, but it probably won't surface at E3 2
