Played some rounds of zombies and also MP. Lots of fun.

Hadn’t played zombies in an eternity, but damn, I don’t remember the zombies being this fast and…smart in World at War zombies, lmao. These fuckers in 6 can jump, onto platforms, can climb and are noticeably faster than BO1 zombies.

Great stuff!

I’m very much the same. I do use image gen to brainstorm, AI in those areas is more impressive when its ā€˜invisible’ like expanding an image in photoshop, adding or removing something from a picture, upscaling etc.

I find it all very useful but will stick to the free copilot, can’t see myself spending 20 odd bucks a month on it.

Looks good. I do have a nitpick and it’s the ingame sunglasses look odd, unless they aren’t sunglasses?

I think they look like something from a commercial and they likely did it that way for the sake of comedy.

Played it in french as well. The voice actors are soooo good. Had to turn on subs also after hugely overestimating my french skills lol.

I just can’t take british accents passing of as every medieval european language anymore lol.

Lol the terrible West Country accents in Kingdom Come Deliverance make me cringe, as someone born and raised here - but it did weirdly grow on me in the end.

I normally have to use the English dub as well as subtitles as I can struggle to pick out voices from background noise - but I dislike having to use subtitles sometimes as if poorly done they can often give away a surprise if you read much faster than the characters talk.

I do wish I could handle the original dubs though - I’d love to play a game set in ancient Rome for example and have the characters speaking Latin, alongside the usual French and Japanese examples here, I think it would be great for accuracy.

While for fantasy settings any language dub is fine, I do wish for English dubs in real settings they used actors from the country also - for those of us unable to use the original dubs, at least hearing English in the right accent can help feel like it’s real but the locals are talking English for our benefit, a bit more like when travelling (after you make an effort to use the local language first)

Between Jesse’s review and impressions from some of my friends it seems that BO6 is one hell of a campaign…and since we don’t get many such high profile/quality FPS campaigns these days I am even more excited to play this one! really happy to see that Raven did one hell of a job with this game, they were always a great studio and they delivered again! :partying_face:

About the VO in games I am used in reading subtitles so playing games like Yakuza in Japanese, A Plague Tale in French and the Metro games in Russian feels the right way to me! :stuck_out_tongue:

Reminder:

Available now for PS5, but the actual relevant bit (:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:) =

Thursday, Oct. 31 to Sunday, Nov. 3** (All PS5 players, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC Steam players)

Super excited! God I love Monster Hunter World.

Will XboxEra be posting a Dragon Age review today?

I think I have two more missions to go but BO6 is fantastic, I might even replay this campaign a second time which is rare for me.

I really hope that Raven revisit Soldier of Fortune one day, I absolutely love those games.

For a game set in the 14th century, modern French probably isn’t a whole lot more accurate than modern English, I’d imagine. :wink:
