I was hyped for this but imho this is looking way too whacky for me. Bold looks way too young and not refined at all, and the music is the most generic thing I’ve ever heard. Considering most Bond movies have amazing soundtracks, they should’ve put more effort into it.

Edit: I couldn’t remember what it reminded me of. Now I do: this Bond has more of an Archer vibe than James Bond. Maybe Craig spoiled us all.

Too wacky? Have you seen a James Bond film...?

[–] littleomid@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago

Yes I have. This looks more like Uncharted than James Bond. A shame for me personally, because I had high hopes for this title.

[–] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk 3 points 2 days ago

Apparently, Bond is only 26 in this story. He's only just started out as a 00 or training to be one.

Here is what i don't get: what's the point of even doing a bond game? Why would you restrict yourself to a franchise that the target audience don't even care about? They can't make a spy game that is fun to play? They can't come up with a name for the protagonist?

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

...because the people who make bond want one and it has a lot of name recognition. Are there many spy games doing well on a mass market level?

[–] littleomid@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Splinter Cell back in the day, and Hitman in the current day are both very famous games. Also I can recommend Cyberpunk 2077 DLC. That's peak 007 style spy game.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Aye splinter cell is out of the market nowadays, and the success of Hitman is what got the 007 brand to get IOI to do this.

I would probbaly enjoy cyberpunk but I dont really like fps.

[–] littleomid@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago

Try out cyberpunk, really. It’s imho one of the top 5 RPGs ever made, besides Mass Effect series and a Kingdom Come
