Topic: What PS5 Games Are You Currently Playing?

@RogerRoger I totally get that, I thought it was a great game so would rather play it through again than get a free platinum, if it’s worth it.

They did such a good job with the game on PS4 I’m hopeful, like you, that they will fix this. Hopefully though they will also turn their attention to doing a sequel 😁

Thanks @RogerRoger It’s a shame it seems a bit of a dud as playing the PS4 version on the PS5 ran really well. Very strange if they’ve somehow made it worse in some way!

Apparently R&C sold 3x better than Returnal on its opening weekend in the UK (physical). Probably not too surprising

What is this fake @Arugula and what have you done with the real one? 😂

Exactly what I was thinking … 😄 The fact that your impression post was more than 2 sentences means this game is transcendent! Good to see!

After the new patch, I launched Valhalla for 5 minutes and finally got the platinum trophy. Only took 6 months lol.

That Final Fantasy demo thing is legitimately really good. Playing Hard Mode and there’s so many great ideas in it. Rough around the edges, sure, but for a demo it’s made a proper good impression on me. I made fun of it a lot on reveal but I’m 100% going to be picking it up when it launches now. Release demos people!

Seconded. It's nowhere near as challenging as Nioh was despite being made by the same team but the combat is super robust and mobility is around the same. It's really polished for a super early demo that's apparently going to be improved based on fan feedback like the Nioh alphas

I still wish those base character designs looked less like they all shopped at a Macy's though

@nessisonett @TheFrenchiestFry The trailer was super bad though. Is there much Chaos talk in the demo?

Playing ratchet and Clank. Its ok I suppose, it's basically like the last one and from a gameplay and depth point of view quite shallow and unrewarding for a hardcore gamer. But I knew this going in, just had nothing else to play lol. I wouldn't pay $120 aud for it though if it couldn't sell it afterwards ( digital ps5 guys take note)

Final Fantasy VII Remake along with Ratchet and Clank A Rift Apart which is now my favourite game of all time. I swear it's the best looking game I have ever seen so if Ratchet and Clank looks this good I can't wait to see what else PS5 is going to get.

I'm playing Final Fantasy XIV again. I haven't played it for like a year and so I'm totally confused and can't remember how to do anything at all. If anyone plays this game and can tell me things please let me know.

@johncalmc Haha I remember being in that boat. I went back to it after a year, had to learn the game all over again, got bored of it and took another break and I haven't played it for well over a year again. Don't worry just run around the World get a feel for everything and it will all start to come back.

@johncalmc You've come to the right place friend , what burning questions you got?

@JohnnyShoulder There’s a bit yeah and it’s proper pants but the gameplay speaks for itself. I don’t really expect good dialogue from anything with Nomura’s name anywhere near.

Bit jealous of y'all with R+C but I'm still in with Godfall. Man what's wrong with all these reviews, the game is great. It must have been patched I have had zero issues and I'm in the Air area. The fighting is awesome as well and it's not stupidly easy like the reviews from November, had some difficulty with the boss of the Earth area and it felt more like Dark souls than Soul reaver.

It's great. In fact it's arguably the best game I've played over the last year since Detroit.

@nessisonett I was definitely apart of the chaos meme group for this game xD, I tried it last night and actually really enjoyed it. Although they need to something about the anti-aliasing because that tutorial field just about made my eyes bleed. Mobility feels like low stance in Nioh, seems like they refined the combo system, and I like their evolution of the yokai burst counter making it rewarding by taking enemy skills if you have the timing. Went in with very low expectations and turned out pleasantly surprised.

I didn't have enough time to finish last night but I'm hoping there's some player agency with sending commands to the party members. Does that open up later on or are they just there for the journey?

@themcnoisy so you've sold me in it... I've quite fancied it since it was first revealed but the critical reception did put me off from buying it at release. I've still been going back to review vids though to see if I could find any redeeming qualities to allow me to pull the trigger on it. I never found them but your last couple of posts about it have given me enough to go on.

I'm gonna order it when I get home.

@colonelkilgore And then to play it on PS6! 🤣

@colonelkilgore I've done a bit of digging and the primal update hit. So there's more to do and the tweaks they have made have been quality of life improvements and bug squashing predominantly. With additional post game stuff.

Looking at some of the reviews they have mad stutter and falling through floors. I have had none of that so possibly a great patch and the game released too early which has damaged it's reputation.
