I want to talk about the shark game/stealth Jaws Unleashed remake game.It's looking to be the most fun game made in years, a throwback to before open world games like GTAV took themselves so damn seriously.
Maneater (Killer Shark Game):
In Maneater you play as a shark who swears revenge on an evil fisherman after your mother is killed by him. Surprisingly story driven open world shark RPG where your journey as a shark will take you from the Lousiana Swamps to the bays of the big city in pursuit of your quarry.
Much like Jedi Fallen order or a Souls-Like game. You can level up your shark in various ways that will make the gameplay experience completely different from player to player. You can have a Bio-Luminiscence power up that gives you electric eel type powers, while killing your stealth stats. A Bone Armor power up that gives you incredible defense while at the same time killing your speed, and of course the mandatory pre-order power up.
The voice talent for this game is incredible too. They got Jim Cummings to voice the bad guy.
There are also various boss battles that your shark can engage with. Ranging from Hammerheads, to Saltwater Crocodiles, to Orcas.
There are also various other human bosses in addition to the animal ones. Much like GTAV you have to get your infamy meter up to the top of the gauge in order to draw them out and feast on them. . . how do you do that? By eating tourists. Real jaws shit.
>epic store exclusive
Was curious but sorry nah, maybe in a few years if i remember if it exists.
It's also coming out on PS4, Xboxone, and Switch(although expect that one to be delayed because of the coronavirus).
Also. All of this content for half the price of a normal AAA game. only 30$
Seriously? Nobody wants to talk about the man eating shark game?
I’m looking forward to it. My dad bought me Jaws on PS2 and I played that to death. The graphics were great. I can’t decide which platform to get it on.
I cant wait to go to the open ocean.
I am also excited for all the boss fights and evolution's although I have a feeling they will both be lackluster
I'm a simpleton so i'll have to wait an extra month or two for the switch release because I want to be able to play it on the go.
I might get it on console for the achievements. Is the game gory?
Unrelated but anyone remember that one online game where a couple of players would be scuba divers and one was a shark? Did it ever come out?
Extremely. Hilariously so, like a Quentin Tarantino movie.
Yeah you mean Depth. It’s super fun.
>Maneater shark
>Is not great white
Pretty good so far
Yes it did. I forget what exactly it was called though.
They made it a fictional species of Bull Shark so that they could justify the shark fighting in freshwater levels like the Bayou Swamp, or the Inland manmade lake, or the Seaworld style theme park.
The kill animations for that game were super grisly.
>Yas Forums - shilling
I'm just trying to share the game with everyone because it seems coverage for this game is super light vs the forthcoming 'AAA' titles.
Games these days are either super high budget and boring or super cheap and exploitative. This seems like a middle ground.
Haven't heard anything about this in so long I thought it was dead in the water.
le future hiddem gem
>expect game to be delayed because of virus.
Ok lol
This desu. I honestly thought it was silently cancelled until this thread.
Is this still an EGS exclusive on PC, despite them using other platforms like Steam for advertising purposes?
its just hungry shark 3d
whats the fucking point?
It recently released a Demo trailer. They were gonna show it at E3 but after that ended up not happening. We got a trailer online instead. Looks pretty good too.
What's the point of anything really?
>Whats the point?
>Dark GTAV/Saints Row style dark comedy.
>Blood and gore
>fun over the top characters.
>Open world ocean with tons of creatures
>Engaging Darksouls-esque combat with the added benefit of three dimensions to make the gameplay more tactical.
This threads reads so blatantly like a paid ad that I respect how straight-forward it is. You're either a marketer that doesn't give a shit about obscuring it or somebody legitimately thinks the game looks good enough to shill it this hard for free, so all power to you.
Game seems cool but I'm actually not much of a fan of open-world games. I'll see if the movement and combat look good before getting it.
You can't exactly market a killer shark the way you can Mario or Fallout.
I don't mean to be rude but I don't really see much appeal in a game like this.
I was just trying to think of shit to post to get the thread over the edge so I could get people talking about it. and yes I do think it's a game that is worthy of your time.
It reminds me of the old days when PS2 games were much more risky but also much more fun when they were actually good.
Wow, this looks like SHIT. I hope they're paying you well because it must be killing you inside to shill this piece of trash.
Obvious troll is obvious. and no. I'm not shilling it at all, at least I'm not being paid for it. I actually think it looks interesting.
Got it on wishlist since last e3.
I actually forgot this was coming out soon, I had a lot of fun with the Jaws PS2 game and this looks great too. Once I beat Doom Eternal a few times I'll look this up in a month or so when it is on sale.
so when is it actually coming out
This year for the PS4/Xbone. 2021 for the Switch version.
Game looks great I don't mind the shilling nobody here knows about it yet.
Steam says may 22
For the Switch one?
>darksouls-esque combat
>parrying, backstabbing, and rolling through the ocean as a fucking shark
What did he mean by this?
Parrying and backstabbing work by the shark using his tailfluke as a weapon to slap the opponent when it dodges you. Aiming it from below to knock the opponent out of the water to stun it. among other things,
GTAV definitely does not take itself that seriously
Looking forward to this, liked Jaws Unleashed and even the peyote plants on GTA V which you could play as various sharks and other sea beasties.
More animal games plz
looks mildly interesting, but ill wait for more videos to determine if i bother
also fuck egs
>also fuck egs
Well it's coming out on consoles too so at least there are options.,
If this is a hit it's possible the creators may expand into other games of this kind. Imagine Maneater: Bear Edition, Maneater: Killer Lion edition, Maneater: Bigfoot edition. The possibilities are endless.
>consoles
lol
fuck consoles too
I'll probably get it once it comes to steam. I really enjoyed the PS2 Jaws game and this just looks like an updated version which is fine by me
Tripwire sucks and has run all their relevant franchises into the fucking dirt. Suck my nuts you ain't getting any more my money.
I'm surprised Playstation is getting a fun looking game, a welcome change from moviegames
What happened?
Killing Floor 2 is a soulless monetized husk(hehe) of its former self. Rising Storm 2 is dead with under 1k players and the last update(novermber 2019) was for Green Army Men mod which no one plays. Tripwire got the gay and aren't going back it seems.
Well there were the remasters for Spyro and MedEvil
>Tripwire has simply given up and is making shovelware now
Fuck this gay earth
>Switch
Huh. Maybe I’ll check it out
Too add to this, TW outsourced development of KF2 to another studio. I imagine so they could get this hunk of garbage ready to ship so they can move onto the next pile of trash.
Looks pretty gud. I played the shit out of Jaws Unleashed on the PS2
this is the most transparent advertising i've ever seen
I assume this game was handled by different team from KF2. For one, it actually at least looks polished
To those who played Jaws Unleashed, was it possible to get to the blue whales? That was the only animal I don't remember eating in that game.
I was hoping something like this for the Meg movie as a tie-in game but we never got it.
