Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier Aims to Bring the Spirit of the Movies to Gaming
Quote:
Debut developer Imaginati has revealed Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier, a standalone cinematic adventure game set between the events of 2014’s Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and this year’s War for the Planet of the Apes. It will be released for PS4, Xbox One and PC this fall.
Published by the new games division of The Imaginarium - the performance capture studio run by Planet of the Apes lead actor Andy Serkis, who executive produces here - the game is even being developed on-site at the company’s historic Ealing Studios headquarters.
Set around a year after Dawn, the game centres around a breakaway faction of apes who take refuge in the Rocky Mountains from the ongoing human-ape war, but are forced to descend into a human-owned valley as Winter draws in and food depletes. The story takes its cue from the films, aiming for a morally ambiguous take on the ensuing conflict, with no black and white decisions or clear heroes and villains. Players will take control of both humans and apes - who, because of the game’s standalone story and cast, can live or die based on your decisions - with multiple endings possible depending on their actions on both sides.
It's really getting annoying lately, the "Cinematic games" I have no problems with cinematic stories, and as long as it has good gameplay (oldschool JRPGS come to mind) but lately with JRPGs and all games for that matter its just story with no to little gameplay. Or even sometimes alot of gameplay but its boring easy and dull.
Telltale for example, they make you seem like its choices but its not. Why not just make a youtube 5 part episode? only telltale games ive been through were the sam and max / monkey island ones. OH! And the wolf among us but it took me forever to get through it. And i still want to play the batman ones, but for some odd reason they bore the shit out of me.

. . .don't play the games then? I mean it's not that hard. Visual Novels aren't going away in either the West or Japan. There's clearly a market for them or they wouldn't be developing them.
As for expecting a new studio to offer up a traditional gaming experience. . .come on now.
