I know all of you guys are good ol' Battlefield vets, and that's why I <3 you!
I think I understand why there hasn't been a lot of discussion around the newest battlefield title, Battlefield Hardline.
(Speaking very broadly as I'm in the middle of my exam session, but hoping to dive more into details as discussion starts)
In my opinion the fact that it's not made by DICE, it's visually so similar to BF4 but drives so far from what normally the BF series are, bringing them into a more playful zone is not making it a very attractive option for me. Looking at those pink weapons REALLY makes it feel like it went through a massive process of "casualization".
But the truth is, I have barely followed the news on the game. Usually by this time I would know which weapons the game would have, I would be exited about new features, I would be digging for more and more info almost every day. So the fact that I don't know as much about the game doesn't let me criticize it? Or do I know enough, and does it truly drift away enough to not make me feel interested?
With the years I have felt less and less hype for games in general, and the last game I was truly hyped about was BFBC2 as it felt truly like a new game. I think the only game that could hype me now would be a BF2142 with destructible environments. (Or Battlefront 3 ).
I will 99% surely download and try the open beta as soon as it is released, but I also feel 99% surely that I won't be buying the game.
