Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

[30+GameOvers]

The only positive thing we might get out of this is temporarily seeing an increase in popularity of other, actually good Indy games like Infernal Machine or Fate of Atlantis
Hell, Lego Indiana Jones wasn't half bad, probably better than this game.

 

[Snekposter]

Didn't they do the same thing in nu-Wolfenstein where da jooz created or hoarded some sort of advanced technology and nazis stole it, or am I getting confused with my slop again?

Nope, that's literally the case. All of the Nazi superweaponry you see in The New Order and follow-ups was reverse-engineered from pillaged Jew hoards of secret technology they refused to share with anyone, even the Allies as they were losing the war.

That's totally not the reason for the lower player count. No sir, it's because of the WOKE GAY NIGGER VIRUS #GOWOKEGOBROKE (cue 10 minute ad revenue certified ragebait video)

All the retards in the Synthetic Man suck off Thread are absolutely melting down over this game not being an absolute shitfest is hilarious.

Ponies & Fake Anti Woke tubers are also having shit fits because the game isn’t crap.

Seeing you of all people defend this game just makes me lose even more hope that it's anything salvageable.

Infernal Machine came out before Emperor's Tomb and I have really fond memories of this one - mostly because it works as a quasi-sequel to Fate of Atlantis which I really loved.


LucasArts used to make really good movie-based games.

Honestly, if they had just fixed the janky controls, they could re-release Infernal Machine and I'd happily buy it. It was fun, just very difficult to get the controls to work right. Especially when going down the river sequences.

Honestly, several parts of this new game feel like they were copying Infernal Machine, but with a way worse companion, boring combat, and a lame ending. Can't have Soviets as the bad guys though, I guess.

The person who wrote it is an insecure male in a dress using she/her pronouns.

That's pretty much all you need to know.

>early access that requires the $100 premium edition

Nobody had a problem with paying $70 for glorified BotW DLC, so no, it's not because of $100 for a premium edition and indeed woke gay nigger virus. Maybe a little of both.

I't say both are contributing factors.
Absolutely atrocious movie that came out last year doesn't help either.

I was so glad that shit flopped. Hoping for this to at least underperform, but gamers are the most cucked of all media slop pigs.l, eating up whatever is shit into the trough unless it's comically bad like Concord. Hell, even then it's a coin flip sometimes, Dragon Age: Veilguard sold much better than it had any right to and wore its woke on its sleeve nearly as much.

I've barely seen anything about the game but I'd be surprised if it's not a shitfest. I'll have to watch a review from some uncucked YouTuber, but none of the ones I watch have reviewed it yet. It's almost impossible for a fat tranny faggot director to have not injected his disease into it, I'd almost be tempted to use xer neopronouns if xey managed that level of restraint.

I get your sentiment about countless grifters humping the DEI/ESG/woke hate-wagon and milking it to death, but they're not wrong. Sure it's getting repetitive now, but if the problem didn't exist in the first place, it wouldn't be talked about.

The bottom line is most gamers hate the "modern audience" tier crap and have made this crystal clear. However, the woke fags and their Larry Fink type backers know this, but they don't care and continue to bombard the industry with this garbage. Its important that the spotlight is kept firmly on their agenda and for us to resist in the most effective way, ie by keeping our wallets closed, otherwise this demoralising goyslop may potentially became the accepted norm and much like modern movies and tv shows, gaming will be ruined.

We have two premium edition early access precedents in recent memory - Silent Hill 2 and Space Marine 2. However Indiana Jones is more expensive than either of those examples. Unfortunately I can't get accurate numbers for either of those prior examples in early access. What I found for Silent Hill 2 was 13k, for Space Marine 2 I found 135k. So in comparison, Indiana's 4-5k is kinda paltry, but I'd probably attribute that to the price more than anything. The guy who made that video about its abysmal player count is a colossal, low-effort faggot and he looks fat underneath his suit, and thus would not have sex with him.

From what I've seen, I was honestly surprised you apparently actually get to play as Indy and won't be bait and switched to a stunning and brave stronk womyn of color for whatever pretense after 30 minutes.

To be honest, I don't think they ever portraited the Nazis as super smart in the old movies either, so it's whatever, but that "insecure male" line is still pretty bad. (Btw, the direct translation of what he says in German is more "weak willed men", not "insecure males", - there is no separate translation for male as a noun and man in German - so it sounds less like current year nonsense to me.) It also feels like they had to add quite a few "omg evil archeologists stealing from other cultures blah blah imperialism" lines, which is pretty annoying because you are here to have fun, and not to be lectured.
The female sidekick is probably a bit girlbossy, but at least not super hideous. (People might disagree, but she looks like a standard Italian.) Of course the Egyptian lady and the sidekick's sister had to be lesbians or something (at least that's how I understood it), but it's only part of the dialogue. So I guess we have some tranny faggotry in the form of obligatory lesbians. Dunno if there is much else.

Honestly, the gameplay looks not too bad and it seems to run well, which is almost a miracle with all the half-finished, buggy, badly optimized games that are often released nowadays. I also appreciate that they are using proper German voice actors for the Nazis.

 

[Punished Borzoi]

Everyone is talking about the game being woke but it's just incredibly padded and boring.

There are a ton of unskippable pointless cutscenes, glitches where you have to lose a lot of progress to fix, tedious time wasting objectives in the larger areas (go to these places and take four pictures, go to these four places and collect these four objects etc), and enemies that take way too many hits to kill. (Its still easy just feels tedious)

When I think about Indiana Jones I don't think about people sitting there and talking, at some points between several minute long cutscenes you do one action before triggering the next unskippable cutscenes.

There is one fun chase sequence with planes and a bad one with a boat that is worse than ones in the first Call of Duty and the dungeon like areas have braindead puzzles that take too long to complete.

It feels like the game could have been decent at about 6-8 hours long paced properly, but instead they dragged it out.

This right here -> "Its important that the spotlight is kept firmly on their agenda and for us to resist." That is the most important, so we need everyone we can get to hump the DEI/ESG/woke hate wagon. If these people stops now the woksters and their Larry Fink type backers will win. The fight is not over because we got a mediocre Indiana Jones game that was not woke enough. Dont forget this game is made by this guy(photo below), these types of people hate you.

Fuck that river.

I read it more like glowies (represented by Sophia's boss) and military-industrial complex in both USSR and USA bad, scientists good.

 

[Commander X]

The game's graphics make it look like the most middling Xbox 360 game, it has no color grading and looks like any run of the mill Ubisoft product. Soulless. From the footage I've seen, it lacks any of the tension or atmosphere of the original films and the actual item at the center of this boring quest is more boring than the DIal of Destiny. The final level is a retread of what happens in Raiders (Divine wrath and all that) but done very, very badly. The NSDAP member who had the "insecure male" line has MCU-level dialogue and the side characters are even more boring than Indy himself is in the game. Indy's VA makes him sound like he's deeply depressed and is considering suicide.

I see a lot of people soy'ing over the ability to take photos of cats, in the game, it looks like the people praising this annoying looking pointless padding side quest are the sort of people who use "pupper", it's fake Reddit cuteness.

 

[Montalbane]

The indiana jones doom mod is honestly better.

 

[Sargon's wife's son]

I just watched a guy play the whole game on stream on five times speed looks aggressively mediocre don't buy it also who cares about Indiana Jones anymore Indiana Jones has basically been ruined by all the terrible movies they've released dial of destiny with dog water.

From what i've read, a huge talking point of theirs is that men turn to the dark side because they're afraid of everyone else besides them empowering themselves.

What do you have with the Republic stagnation infighting inefficient government what do you have with the empire efficiency and end to the slave markets the dark side also gives you the ability to shoot lightning on your hands I would side with them just on that principle.

The female sidekick is probably a bit girlbossy, but at least not super hideous. (People might disagree, but she looks like a standard Italian.) Of course the Egyptian lady and the sidekick's sister had to be lesbians or something (at least that's how I understood it), but it's only part of the dialogue. So I guess we have some tranny faggotry in the form of obligatory lesbians. Dunno if there is much else.

Yeah that always took me for a loop when watching someone stream it you would be literally stabbed or shot in Egypt for being a homosexual it's one of the most conservative countries in the world

 

[regalterry]

Hell, even then it's a coin flip sometimes, Dragon Age: Veilguard sold much better than it had any right to and wore its woke on its sleeve nearly as much.

I think Concord caused people to have unrealistic expectations about what a gaming failure looks like. Not every game can be a spectacular fuckup as that one, and we're unlikely to see something quite as comical in a long while (unless Sony has invested a few hundred millions into Fairgame$ as well).

That being said, Veilguard was an objective failure by any metric you care to use.

Even the developers themselves, no matter how reluctantly and obliquely, admit the game has (massively) underperformed. It was always going to sell more than Concord based on the IP alone because, yes, lots of gamers, even here, are cattle that seem not to have gotten the message the previous two Dragon Age were trying to deliver (BioWare sucks now).

Take into account that the project was in development for close to a decade, with massive overheard since BioWare is a big studio, and that EA took away SWTOR from BioWare, which was their sole remaining source of revenue, and they're feeling the pinch now.

Concerning the Great Circle, I'm not sure it's going to do too well. On the one hand, Disney have done everything in their power to alienate the built-in Indy fanbase, on the other hand most younger people have no emotional attachment to the movies or character, as they didn't grow up watching them. Indy has always been a much more niche property compared to Star Wars.

Also, the game itself looks unpolished, and hasn't been marketed all that much, certainly not nearly as aggressively as the three dogshit Wolfenstein games. It kinda seems that MachineGames are a much-reduced studio that is strapped for resources, and this is best that they can come up with.

I don't expect the game to bomb as spectacularly as some of the more recent AAA flops, but I don't expect it will do much to improve the waning popularity of the Indy IP, the woes of MicroSoft's gaming division, or the financial fortunes of MachineGames.

 

[BetterFuckChuck]

Bit weird when Indy turns to the camera and goes "Israel has a right to defend itself" near the end

 

[Sigmund Freud]

Didn't they do the same thing in nu-Wolfenstein where da jooz created or hoarded some sort of advanced technology and nazis stole it, or am I getting confused with my slop again?

No, you're right. The jews had a secret cabal of highly advanced technology that the nazis stole and used to win the second world war.
Later on you meet a member of this cabal and you actually ask him why the fuck they didn't give some of the same technology to the allies. He just shrugs and says "idk lol"

 

[Spud]

The plot for the Wolfenstien TNO is rather funny looking back on it. The allies lost the war cause the Nazis got their hands on Jewish super tech that is purposely kept hidden from the Gentiles, but then for the sake of plot convenience they're given access to help fight back against the Nazis when it would have made more sense to give the allies access either when the war started or perhaps when they started rounding Jews up onto trains? It's somehow a game where the Nazis are the bad guys but proves their opinion about the Jews being correct by showing that the Jews will hoard civilization changing technology from everyone for contrived reasons even at the expense of their own people.

Maybe the game is just ok?
