¡Wolverine en PS5 arrasa el State of Play! Gameplay brutal, villanos épicos y ventana de estreno
Manu und sein heutiger Gast Viet (PixelViet) haben sich die gestrige Xbox Developer Direct angeschaut und waren vom Gezeigten durchaus überrascht: Wir haben beeindruckendes Gameplay und einen richtigen DeepDive zum mit Spannung erwarteten Fable bekommen. Können die Playground Studios endlich die Vision von Peter Molyneux technisch umsetzen? Es sieht ganz danach aus. Wenig überraschend, aber dafür richtig schick: Forza Horizon 6 in Japan und auch Beast of Reincarnation wird erwartbar gut allen Anschein nach. Warum sich Viet auf das Spiel von Game Freak am meisten freut, erfahrt ihr im Cast. Kein Shadowdrop, aber kommt trotzdem bald: das auf den ersten Blick verwirrende neue Spiel von Double Fine.

IIn this episode, hosts Shaq, Neil, and Homer dive deep into the ongoing Team of the Year promo in FC26 where the midfielders get their time in the spotlight. They discuss their experiences with the promo, expressing a mix of excitement and disappointment regarding pack weights and the overall content. Homer shares his underwhelming feelings about the promo, comparing it to a lackluster WrestleMania without star players. Neil adds that the grind for Team of the Year cards has been tougher this year, with lower pack odds making it difficult to obtain high-rated players. The conversation shifts to the gameplay content and the community's collective frustration with the current state of the game, highlighting the need for better rewards and more engaging content.TakeawaysTeam of the Year is a major promo but often leads to disappointment.Pack weights this year are significantly lower than previous years.The community is feeling a collective frustration with the current state of FC.Gameplay content is abundant, but rewards are lacking.Expectations for Team of the Year often lead to disillusionment.Chapters00:00 Welcome Back to Foot and Review01:15 Team of the Year Expectations02:32 Homer's Underwhelming Experience03:55 Neil's Take on Pack Weights06:10 Community Reactions to Team of the Year10:33 Gameplay Content vs. Pack Rewards18:23 Midfielders and Their Stats23:10 SBC Choices and Future Icons25:37 Team of the Year SBCs: Pricing and Requirements27:36 Player Performance: Stamina and Attributes31:02 Upcoming Icon Swaps: Expectations and Speculations34:29 Evolutions: Current State and Future Prospects40:26 The Impact of Icon Swaps on the Community49:06 Final Thoughts and Community EngagementCheck out our socials:X: https://twitter.com/futinreviewInstagram: https://instragram.com/futinreviewTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@futinreviewpodcastQuestions: futinreview@gmail.comhttps://youtube.com/futinreviewhttps://www.futinreview.com https://patreon.com/futinreview
