    Didn't even know Alyx was recast until I saw the thumbnail for this video

    which is clickbait cos the video doesn't actually explain it. Still incredibly weird have Merle voice 95% of the game to then recast. I dunno, I couldn't tell the difference between the original and the new voice in the trailer (they say she's still in there), I just assumed there was a bit of processing to make her sound younger.

    I am not understanding much of what's going on https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/topic/22298-th…&comment=453706

    feels they are keeping things too high-concept for me (kind of to stay true to the books – dunno if it makes sense of what i mean)

    What an awesome movie! (trailer does not do it justice)

    Stallone nailed it in this one by going back to the roots of "First Blood" from 1982. No over the top hero stuff, just a war vet with PTSD and a past, trying to cope, but life manages to throw a hard curve ball at him by drawing first blood.

    The story is heartbreaking, the fight sequence is very tight, brutal, nostalgic, and reminiscent of the first movie, and the end credits sequence with shots from previous Rambo, especially "First Blood" almost brought a tear to my eye.

    I watched the previous ones as a kid in the 80s, and with this last one concluding the story after more than 35 years (no spoilers), one feels like losing a close friend.

    This makes me feel better. Maybe is the movie we actually needed... I've read the Rambo book (tens of times!) and spoiler alert, if it was for David Morrel, there wouldn't be any Rambo series to talk about.

    Watched the first three episodes and being uber tired doesn't help... but also my partner is saying she's not understanding anything about the show.

    I mean I got a few bits but the plots feel as apart as ever rather than converging. I hope it'll make sense by the end, cos I'm not going back and rewatch from the beginning just to get the full of it.

    Feels like a discount version of GoT where they needed to get some action right off the bat instead of building the characters.

    The announce trailer looked great, then I skimmed through the Tested video thinking it would get better, but it was like watching the video of an early alpha. Makes you think Valve did it again, presenting a completely fake trailer of a game there is not made yet.

    I don't plan in watching the Tested video properly, it just riles me up and makes me doubt everything. And anyway I don't have a VR device so I don't need to worry about it for now.

    My thought exactly, although it sounds he created the map really to have material for a video and just really with no aspiration, so I guess expectations in terms of gameplay must have very low.

    I’m really surprised the 50-50, but I can’t remember the split for Mapcore maps I participated testing (was a long time ago), not sure how telling a test in very early alpha is… like I was reporting in another discussion, you look at pro results and the average shifts overtime.

    Oh did you use WallWorm? Is it just for some models or you redid the whole map in it? Or you can edit the original with it?

    I never went over the first chapter of this game, it's near the top of the games I need to play next in my back catalog... but if you don't own it, you can get it free on Epic games store now.

    After all these trailers I’m less hyped than when they announced the project, but I guess we’ll give it a try for a couple episodes

    All I want is a solid engrossing storyline with decent game mechanics/gameplay, and I'll be fine :)

    It would be a bit not fun? I mean the Predator is OP and you can’t kill it before the end of the game so… you just shoot the air, like in the movie?

    They already made the Alien game where you can only run away as well…
