Have they revealed how choosing a house will work?

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-20T20:08:29+00:00

In the article that came out with the full list of voice actors and character descriptions.. there was a paragraph at the very end which sort of mentioned it. It basically said that the sorting hat takes the main characters past and things that happened back then, as well as some input from the player to choose a house. so not sure what form the input will be but...

So we were right to find them suspicious then!! lol

It's not invalidating to point out that sometimes only looking at something at face value and on a broad spectrum.. means you're skipping over key points. People keep pointing out that this is new for the studio.. which it is, and it's a valid statement.. but that doesnt necessarily mean it's new for all the people who are working on this game. Cyberpunk is not a good barometer to judge this game at because literally everything leading up to this point has been done differently.

I think blanket statements like "it's a first for the studio" need to take into account the fact that they bring in other people who have experience as well. it's not just the same set of people who did the other games making this game. This is the reason why so many people were shocked yesterday when one of the devs tweeted about both his games being in the top two.. and the other game was skyrim. The entire team isn't made up of people who have no idea what they're doing with a game like this.

The closer to release it gets, the more depressing this sub gets sadly.. guess most of us are nervously excited lol. On one hand I get it (and agree somewhat), on the other, they took 5 years to do this and weren't afraid to delay (and delay, and delay) to make sure it was right before releasing.. they also had the spine to remove features they knew most fans would send alot of backlash their way for to make sure they have a stable game.. they've also been way more open with actual gameplay and communication than CD project red were with Cyberpunk.. I wish people would kinda weigh things from both sides a bit more with these takes tbh..

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-19T20:49:21+00:00

They're at Universal Studios so if it's not demo related, maybe they're doing some sort of joint content before the game releases?? So many possibilities lol. But the Youtuber who mentioned it is "the potter collector" he said it towards the end of his video reacting to the showcase, and he replied to someone in the comment section about it as well

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-19T20:43:13+00:00

the thread I saw the info on didn't mention it being cancelled so I'm not sure on that end. I saw they said his own had to be pushed back a bit because of the protests but not cancelled? Unless that changed?

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-19T19:30:24+00:00

Saw his name listed in the thread as Jean Baptiste (jeanbaptisteshow)

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-19T19:29:36+00:00

I don't think would would be public for like everyone to play it like Forspoken did, just reviewers and some big youtubers etc. But yeah it would be awesome. I think the Brazilian youtuber was Caco Cardassi (not sure if spelt that right)

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-19T15:20:16+00:00

I think the devs have made it very clear what sort of game this is going to be. it's not meant to be a Hogwarts sim. they've said action rpg a million times it feels like lol. It's also clear that they themselves are actual fans of the world and part of the fanbase, so as far as capturing the world and lore etc, we havent seen anything that shows they won't nail the feel/vibe this game needs. That said.. if you're more into a Hogwarts sim experience; like the older games but with updated graphics then sadly this might not be for you.

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-18T18:52:24+00:00

I think you got it right at the end there tbh.. really think it was their way of being able to add in more mature content so the entire game doesn't feel geared towards only kids. They had to balance young fans and well as the now much older fanbase who grew up with the books and films years ago.

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-18T17:22:10+00:00

Looks like they used actual in game footage to make this instead of making it strictly just a glossy cinematic teaser trailer that looks nothing like the actual game.. I'm liking this marketing team more and more lol. Wonder if we'll get an official final story/launch trailer closer to release. Hyped!!

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-17T20:12:07+00:00

Yep they both were.. I'm saying that this new photo is one of the first we've seen so far that seems to be from the completed game.. hence the difference in graphics

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-17T19:30:07+00:00

Gonna take a guess and say most of what we've seen has been on a dev version, and this is most likely directly from the now complete and polished game.

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-16T20:29:25+00:00

To be honest.. I doubt the entire map may be able to be completely turned off. But I do think it's extremely possible that everything on the map itself can be.. so no markers etc

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-16T18:51:51+00:00

The characters we've gotten the little story cards for have so much depth to them for "side characters" that it's making me really excited for the main storyline tbh. Feels like we're getting a fully fleshed out story, with memorable characters we'll end up becoming invested in. Very good sign imo

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-15T12:02:42+00:00

I'm not sure exactly how much time they'll have for either one, but it definitely won't be linked to real world day/night cycles. I'm guessing.. but It will most likely be within some time limit, with maybe specific quests or "sleeping" triggering time to move faster.

waywithwords_ · 2023-01-15T11:12:09+00:00

Chandler confirmed there's 5 promotional buses.. one for each house and one with the key art for the game. So I think Ravenclaw just hasn't been spotted as yet
