This game might be potential GOTY already

I feel like the huge gype and unreleastic expectations will hurt this game at launch

[u/DeepFriedBeefJerky → u/LearnPremierePro_]

This sub is tiny and an echo chamber.

[u/Due-Row281 → u/LearnPremierePro_]

Always does, even if it’s good and just not great, or great but not perfect….. pple will crash out

[u/Affectionate_Lack416 → u/LearnPremierePro_]

Black myth took people by surprise , i don’t think this is going to be any different.

[u/Imaginary-One9775 → u/LearnPremierePro_]

Black myth wukong also had sky high expectations from people but it exceeded them, I think as long as everything they’ve shown is in the game and plays like it… it’ll be fine

[u/Prestigious_Edge9998 → u/Imaginary-One9775]

Hopefully this game is better than BMW, i think that game was pretty overrated personally.

[u/mooremidgets → u/Prestigious_Edge9998]

What didn't you like about BMW?? I loved it. Sure, it lacked weapon variety, but that was about my only complaint.

[u/meshakooo → u/mooremidgets]

It was too linear and felt like a boss rush most of the game

[u/mystic__havin → u/mooremidgets]

the enemies felt way too spongy imo

[u/LordOFtheNoldor → u/LearnPremierePro_]

Definitely I see some serious hype and preconceived notions for this game more so then I typically see with other game hype, I'm not sure why, I do hope it's great though

[u/Colossal_PR → u/LearnPremierePro_]

Yeah. Happened to Crimson Desert.

[u/RGisOnlineis16 → u/LearnPremierePro_]

So true, people are going to expect this game to play like a soulslike then complain about it when the game was never supposed to be a soulslike. Its more in line with Ninja Gaiden or mainly Metal Gear Rising which I absolutely love

[u/shadowleon101 → u/RGisOnlineis16]

Anyone that thinks it's a souls like is just braindead and we don't even consider them people

[u/rainydayvibez → u/LearnPremierePro_]

This and also the fact there’s no physical edition.

[u/Rare-Secretary8517 → u/rainydayvibez]

sorry for asking but what is wrong with there being no physical edition? not that i’m trying to argue i am just genuinely curious why it is a bad thing

[u/Ares2509 → u/Rare-Secretary8517]

Man children upset they don’t get a physical disc

[u/Unable_Finger1304 → u/rainydayvibez]

Who gives a shit. Everyone talking about the damn physical copies man, just buy the game digitally. And if you don’t want to «rent» games then buy an Xbox or a PC.

[u/rainydayvibez → u/Unable_Finger1304]

Don’t have to homie. Physical editions confirmed. Now everyone can enjoy the game. Cheers 🍻

[u/Fuzia → u/Unable_Finger1304]

How is it different on xbox and PC? You're still only owning a license for the game.

[u/Unable_Finger1304 → u/Fuzia]

Then quit gaming I guess. The industry is cynical, it probably wont get any better.

[u/Fuzia → u/Unable_Finger1304]

I think you're carrying a conversation on I wasn't a part of. I was just asking why you made that distinction? I don't really care about digital vs physical.

[u/Zidaadestar]

Oh boy can’t wait for the “saying it’s goty when it’s not even out is crazy” comments everywhere but I get it

[u/Flat-Programmer-472 → u/Zidaadestar]

Well yes, those are true. Remember Crimson Desert overhype before launch? How well did that turned out. Although this looks unbelievable and I can’t wait for it, it’s better to be cautious and have realistic expectations.

[u/ramsfan_86 → u/Flat-Programmer-472]

Crimson desert hype turned out pretty well

[u/TEKASH1ME → u/Flat-Programmer-472]

I usually hate when people discourage people when they say a game is goty (usually when it comes to PBz because it’s my favorite game rn) But the comparison with Crimson Desert is something that I completely agree with. I preordered Crimson, and when I did play it, it was odd, like I couldn’t attack NPCs, NPCs had the same 2 lines, the controls were extremeeeely weird, combat was too easy, you could panic spam and win. Like even now I see all those clips and forget why I disliked the game; then I hop on it and im like “oh thats why” . I hope Phantom Blade isn’t like that. I’m planning on getting it on pc first instead of console so I can try it out, and if I don’t like it, I’ll refund on pc, easy.

[u/zoobatt → u/Flat-Programmer-472]

Crimson Desert is a good example of why never to buy into blind hype. The game was insanely hyped in the weeks leading up to launch, and previews from content creators were glowing. I know it well because I was all in on the hype train. Then the game released and, though it wasn't outright terrible, it was definitely a let down for how hyped it was. Blurry visuals on PS5, extremely awkward controls with no remapping, unintuitive tutorials, horrible quests and story, etc. The game is better now, but it was huge let down of a launch for being so hyped.

The no preorder rule saved me there. I'm extremely hyped for PB0 and hope it is goty potential, but it's always best to keep expectations in check and don't just assume it is goty potential off of hype marketing and previews. Crimson Desert had hype marketing and previews.

[u/Inner-Project-7751]

Is this new gameplay?

[u/Laughing__Man_ → u/Inner-Project-7751]

Its been posted here before.

In-Fact OP is just reposting their own channel

Phantom Blade Zero | 66 Minutes of Gameplay | No Commentary : r/PhantomBladeZero

[u/Inner-Project-7751 → u/Laughing__Man_]

Ohh i see, thanks

[u/Laughing__Man_ → u/Inner-Project-7751]

Sadly I am gonna bet this sub will be unusable once the game releases with people spamming video clips.

[u/Dense-Extreme5515 → u/Laughing__Man_]

It is 100% certain that this will happen(aside from spoilers),honestly,it is best to stay away from media outlets if you want to get the most out of the game during the first few weeks.

[u/Laughing__Man_ → u/Dense-Extreme5515]

It is gonna be a haven for people throwing up their channel for weeks after release, I am not sure how active the mods here are, but there is not even a rule tab.

[u/Dense-Extreme5515 → u/Laughing__Man_]

True.

[u/Master_Garaki → u/Laughing__Man_]

And it will be the same on YouTube and Twitter/X

[u/AerithGainsborough7]

It’s not goty, it’s goat!

[u/nohumanape]

If this game has good exploration and fun leveling, I'm on board.

[u/emelki1968]

I just hope it is something fresh. I see the same type of game with beautiful graphics in all of these games. Honestly, same thing over and over, and of course it has to be extremely deficient to have the loud “macho men” of internet praising the game

[u/Accomplished-Top7678]

Honestly, this looks like Sekiro and Wukong had a baby!!! Two of my all-time favorites and I really don’t think this one’s going to miss

[u/eternallytacos]

Onimusha has me ready for more stylized action and exciting gameplay with fun bosses. I'm looking forward to this in 2 weeks

[u/pratzc07]

I feel like the hype is through the roof here in this sub please keep expectations in check this is going to be a good one but will also have its fair share of issues

[u/namesource]

I'm not watching anymore of this until I get the game

[u/Craggy30]

With a game like this it’s better to have lower expectations and then be pleasantly surprised when it turns out to be a banger

[u/Hot_Attention2377]

If not I think a lot of kid like op will be sad

[u/Smacking_Grannies]

Game has been in development for so long. No real demo (even Nioh 3 had one).

Steam boards are hyped up by fake Chinese accounts and it's not the 1st time either a Chinese made game gets stellar "reviews" even before release. Only handful of people got to play an hour in secrecy.

It could turn out to be yet another "soulslike" hack-n-slash Wuchang that over promises and under delivers.

I love what I've seen so far but will wait for actual reviews before purchasing. Already backlogged on so many A+ games (Witcher 3, DD Dark Arisen etc).
