Anthem Twitter Thread

I loved some of his songs when i was a kid, but until now for many years a did not listen to anything from him. This game woke up my old taste in music and it wasn't been even announced

Tomorrow we might finally know this game's name and genre!

Tomorrow I am sure we will get something.

If they're smart, and they remember what happend to No Man's Sky, they should not come anywhere close to that level of detail.

But it would be GREAT if they confirmed, without a shadow of a doubt, that their "disruptive online whatsit" didn't interfere with a solid story-driver SP action game. I want to hear a statement like, "You can play online or offline" or "There's a great SP campaign too." That would be fantastic.

Not that I'm anti-MP online -- Nier:Automata has what I would call a disruptive online element, but it wasn't hyped at all, and so was a big surprise to everyone, and was a powerful and appreciated one at that, enhancing the SP experience without damaging it -- while supporting a fully offline experience as well. I just have zero confidence in Bioware's ability to do something disruptive, or that disruptive is necessarily a good thing. The online part is either going to be a me-too, or so weird that no one will understand if it has value or not.

Well there's no game on earth that's going to get me up at 5am, but I'll be sure to check for news over breakfast.

EA Play is something to look forward to at least. My expectations are super low as far as how much info we get, but it will be nice to have an actual name and possibly a new subforum for speculation. After my disappointment in MEA I've kinda lost interest in games so finding something to get excited about even if it's not a Bioware game, would be nice.

I'm just going to park in here from quarter-till on, so I can hype or nerd rage accordingly with the rest of you.

What would it take for you guys to be Interested in the game?

For me? A full single player experience. I don't mind if it requires you to be online, but it needs to be seperate from the multiplayer and have companions, dialogue system and so on.

I agree with the things you listed and would like to add an interesting world. I'm not interested in anything that looks cartoony or superhero stuff, but something Victorian like or modern with a twist would interest me greatly. I'm hoping the genre is horror or at least has horror elements.

Pretty much this. 

I'm pretty flexible on the genre front though. It's all in the execution...

It would have to be story-driven, have a dialogue system and not punish solo players.

Also if it looks like it'll be run into the ground with expansions like SWTOR then I'm out, not dealing with that nonsense again.

I'm pretty flexible myself, but certain genres or combinations are less likely to grab my attention.
