    This is so crazily original that I can't help but want it, although I'm really not sure why it's wearing the Far Cry 3 name based on the media so far.

    I can only assume its because it wouldnt sell otherwise.

    New trailer today for Blood Dragon, and it is now up on Steam for prepurchase. Release on May 1st.

    This is fucking awesome.

    I do think this looks cool and will likely give it a go, but at the same time I'm a little disappointed that the original rumours of the DLC being basically FC3 + Dinosaurs aren't true. Maybe that's boring of me, but I liked the original island setting and this doesn't really look like the same game at all.

    I really don't think it looks that great. I understand they're going for a 80s, VHS vibe, but it just looks overwhemingly colourful, and not in a nice way. It's kinda hard to see what's going on.

    I was ready to throw my money at Ubisoft for whatever expansion they wanted to add to FC3, seriously enjoyed it. But this? I mean, as Thrik This is a mod, it's cheeky they slap the label on top of it.

    I was loving the colors in the screens, love the ambience and vibe... but as I saw the leaked playthroughs my interest nosedived.

    I think that my immediate, much more conspicuous, hype in finding out –thanks to the YT thumbnails at the end of the trailer– that Ubisoft is also about to release a remake of Flashback... says it all.

    I would take this over FC3 any day. Besides its a standalone experiement to get them different style of games, taking risks, etc. By using the FC3 name, which I said before, I assume is the only way to generate enough attention to do so. I really hoping this will branch into its own thing.

    For the art? Because gameplay seems perfectly the same, probably leaning much more toward shooting but looks just like a re-skinning.

    While the art, as I said, I like it; I'm annoyed by some animations that look choppy and I'm not a huge fan of gratuitous offensive animation+sentences (i'm afraid they'll be quite repetetive instead of punctuation marks).

    I totally get that, but can you blame me because it pisses me off? I'm feeling cheated, as well as lots of gamers posting elsewhere.

    I personally encourage spin-offs, but I like consistent and cohesive experiences, not blatant commercial operations. But maybe on the flip side, some execs there are thinking they are being straight with us "look, this is the same game reskinned, we tell you, you know it". Either case, this doesn't seem to me going so far as taking real risks. (Talking as a gamer here.)

    Not blaming you for anything, just explaining, because I know, the reasons it got made.
