Don't let the cringey Ubisoft like interaction get you down. You will need to communicate and strategize and all those things in the video will 100% happen too.

There was some bad moments for me personally, im not a Roblox fan and Baby Steps didn't need to be shown lol. Still the other games held it up for me than I listed and it was short so it's definitely getting a passing grade from me. Sucks I gotta wait til February for Helldivers 2 but maybe i'll learn to hibernate for a few months after Spidey-2 lol. And despite the cringey like interaction in the Helldivers 2 video, it's not fake in a sense that you will need to communicate and those things will happen to you like that. Spidey-2 has me really excited now, that trailer did it for me more than the others. And of course Final Fantasy VII Rebirth looked excellent.

For the Shareholders

Despite all the hype and love this game has been getting it hasn't really been on my radar lol. I guess it's because ive been playing a bunch of other games constantly(including backlogging) and I haven't seen anything in particular from it that would put it at the top in terms of my priorities. 2023 been a great year for me. I'll try to get around to this eventually, I just don't know when currently.

As I said in the other thread, I think they're banking on renews offsetting and making more money in the end for them even in the event of the potential loss in subs as long as the sub loss isn't catastrophic and they get to set a new floor in the process. it's the latest Jim Ryan money squeeze.

She has some cool looking moves. Definitely picking her up as my second character. I like her alt costume too.

@EMQZ Because I think it seems to be aimed at the person who is already subscribed too. So even if they don't make any significant bump in subscriptions, they'll still bring in more money from a renew because they jacked up the prices. That unless they start losing a lot more subs that aren't willing to re-sub.

Remember, it's not need. It's greed! The Jim Ryan effect. All while showing up with a crap showcase that provided crumbs after skipping a year . Been singing it for years, but Jim and Hermen are the worst thing to ever happen to PlayStation.

I'll catch it on a discount maybe but no thank you. I'm not paying that asking price for Premium nor Extra. I'll try to play and finish whatever game on Premium that I want to play and let it lapse without renewing. I'll think about Essentials but I can't think of any game I play online anymore beside SF6 every once and a while and I don't need to that, im fine just playing offline. Don't play Battlefield anymore other than 4 and I haven't played that in a long time. So even Essential isn't worth it now(for me).

Technically you are getting value here so it's technically worth it but that's more so on whether you out paying for games to begin with. PlayStation wants to be full greed all while providing crumbs on whats on the timeline. PlayStation under Jim Ryan is a wannabe Apple without the premium products to be Apple.

2 million in a month is high for a fighting game. Very few can accomplish that. Only games like Mortal Kombat, Smash and maybe a few others have in this era. Capcom's goal is to sell 10 million lifetime. Street Fighter 6 is going to be supported for at least 5 more years so it's well on the way to reaching that goal which I have no doubt it will reach.

There won't be different sku like SF4, it will be like SF5 so everybody will be on the same version. But it will be up to you whether you want to buy the dlc. The game offers a lot out of the box in terms of content. Capcom did a really good job this time around.

And yeah, you're not bothering people in this game. At the end of the day, it's about "you" having fun. There's plenty of people to find of your skill level and that will be the case through this game's life cycle. I seen plenty of forever bronze players that just love playing the game in SFV. I don't see that changing in this game. And if you don't want to be bothered with and feel like you'll get harassed by some weirdo, there's options in the game menu to set your profile tag to private and private your online status plus only accept invitations from friends. And you can block people too.

Looks weird and looks interesting.

Trailer is awesome. Yep, they kept the hilarious(helldive on your head) stuff intact lol.

Taste Democracy!

You tease and torture us with this short clip.🤣 Upload a full mission ASAP lol. There's going to be so much fun to be had in this game going by the first one.

You won't see me moving over. I don't touch anything that garbage Meta makes.

He looks amazing but he's going to be a pain to deal with🤣. Capcom going above and beyond with his animations. They did a fantastic job with him in this game.

Japan need to stop doing this crap.

I'll take it, but i really wish there was a Selene(Returnal) variant. I wish there was more choice in avatars in general these days.

Delayed🙁............Still hyped😊😎

I'm not putting any stock into this demo. I already know the full game will be greatness. So this demo will not determine whether I buy day one because I will. I'm downloading right now more so to check performance and see how it looks on my LG C2 and QLED.

Well, I need to make the time somehow between now and the end of September to play the main game lol. With all the good games out and coming out, that's going to be tough.

I thought it was Onimusha at first lol. I'm definitely interested...no, im excited.😀😁. I didn't think Capcom had any other game to announce outside of their own showcase so this surprised me some.

It was better than PlayStaton's trash but even then it was still mid imo. Talking from a 1st party/exclusive perspective, that's what I mostly judge these showcases on.

Kinda has a Redline(anime) vibe in a way. Interesting.

River City Girls 2 finally got it's 60fps patch.....after 6 months so I started playing that again.

Going to play Street Fighter 6 also. So i'll have these two games in rotation.

Square with the two hit combo(FFXVI and this) coming up. This is the best timeline for me.🎉🥳

Of course, it's all about Street Fighter 6 for me til Final Fantasy XVI arrives which is GUARANTEED to be another hit this year. So at that point im going to put Street Fighter 6 aside for weeks til I finish Final Fantasy XVI. It's not like Street Fighter 6 is going anywhere since the game will be fully supported by Capcom til like 2028 lol.

I have 0 surprise from the review scores. Everything I saw in trailers (and played in the beta) screamed that it was going to review extremely well. Capcom continues to deliver for gamers.

Im still a traditionalist when it comes to multiplayer. Sell me the ***** game with a decent amount of maps/unlocks and we'll go from there.

I really hate the fortnite/apex etc etc model. It's why I just play Battlefield 4 still til this day when I want want my multiplayer fix. I hate this balancing act Naughty Dog has to do. And Bungie is having to oversee it and all the other gaas projects. It freaking sucks. It's part of the reason why im not looking forward to any of them despite not even knowing what most are.

Not exploitive enough long term. That's all you need to know about that model. It's unbelievable where the studio is now. No ETA on nothing. NOTHING!

On Gotham, Sony should be thanking their lucky stars they bought Insomniac. From PlayStation's mvp to PlayStation's best studio. Period.

Insomniac got lower back pains from carrying this gen.
Naughty Dog ***** around way too much. Should have moved on to the new IP after TLOU2. Instead they started doing an unnecessary remake and messing around with project that initially failed. Now we are multiple years in and with no time table for anything new from them. Gross.

Biggest winner: Capcom. I mean I don't really have to explain why lol. Id put Helldivers behind them because it was a fantastic trailer that even though it's third person now, it still gave me that feeling the first game had and I expect it will have a lot of the same things in the end that made it really fun(and hilarious).

Biggest Loser: I accidently voted FairGame$ but I really meant to vote for PlayStation Studios that of course includes FairGame$. It should be obvious as to why if you watched that showcase expecting to see some good updates on 1st party projects.

It was poor. If I include all games and just judged based on that, id give it a lot higher score but this is the PlayStation Showcase. You starved us for more than a year and a half. I want to know about the 1st party exclusives. You showed up with 4 live services, NONE showed gameplay. Spider-Man 2 was the lone single player. Helldivers 2 was your co-op. So basically after all this time you show up with Spidey 2 and Helldivers 2. Epic fail.

Dog ****. 100% a reflection of how devoid of personality Jim and Hermen are. I could only speak up for a few games either because I played the first game or I played the beta of it in some way. Kaz, House, Tretton, Layden and Shu(in his PlayStation jail cell) are rolling over in there beds right now looking at how just unfun a lot of this crap looks.

Expected the change when I found out it was basically AAA now. Excited never the less. Spreading Democracy this year!

I expect no less from PlayStation's most valuable studio this gen thus far.

My man Silva dropping Dishwasher on PS5 but not PS4? That don't sound right.

Hades with an é. Nope.

Firewalk working on a Killzone? I thought they meant "new IP" when they said "original" AAA multiplayer. That don't sound right neither to me.

Japan has great taste

Encountered this last year. I restarted the game and restored my licenses and it seemed to fix it. Then it started happening again yesterday. I think it resolved itself but then again I may have been done playing the game for the day and not realized it hadn't been resolved. Will turn on the game later to see.

Off tops, im disappointed by the news but we'll see.

That sucks. They have their reasons but that's two games down already. Games that will not get made and will not be in PlayStation's lineup.

Ratchet is great for the lineup.

They're not playing with the Syphon Filter games lol. I think they're only missing 1 game at this point.

I have to check my library because I think I already bought Sakuna: Rice of Ruin. I have so many games that I bought but haven't played so I have to be check these lists half the time in games im interested in.

Going to try out Humanity though at some point.

Im on PS Premium and funny enough will likely re-up it come November when time to renew. But the reality is that I rarely ever play PS+ games on it other than PS1/2 classics. And even then i've only played the Syphon Filter game and Hot Shots Golf. It's not that there's not a great selection of games. Quite the opposite, it's just that the games that I actually buy end up taking priority. Something about buying my games makes me want to play them more.

The last game I played on plus was DMC5:SE. I usually just redeem the monthly games and go back to what I was playing. Sometimes I'll download a game on Premium with the intent to play it soon after I finish the current game im playing only to not play it and play another game that I actually bought whether it's new or in my backlog.

The plates are far too plain for my liking. They could have at least tried another color if they're were going to go that route of just slapping a basic picture on it. I'll just keep my galactic purple.

Come on Kaz, say it with me. Ford GT90. Ford GT90!!!

@Acquiescence Agreed although i'm still in the belief that this deal will eventually go through somehow. MS been trying to play the little guy role when they're not and have plenty of resources at there disposal to get where they want to go but instead want to take the easy/lazy route because of their own incompetency over the years. They shouldn't be rewarded for that.

Some timestamps for the stream link @KaijuKaiser posted.

11:11-13:14 Gameplay

1:00:27-1:02:18 Eikon vs Eikon More RPG elements in april. There were plenty of more info but I mainly stayed on the parts that contained gameplay.

Seriously felt like ive seen too much already at this point lol. This is going to be a goty contender.

The animation is cool but the sound sucks.

Decent update. Still wish I had activity feed back along with PS community. Discord integration is just meh. I dunno why I thought it was going to be something greater than it is when it was first announced lol.

Looks cool. Like I said before, im going to try it out based on the who the studio is. I'm more excited interested in/excited about Arc Raiders though. Having said this, these titles will face the same uphill battle other titles have faced with me because they're free to play. I don't play nor like any of them currently.

I tend to not like what im given as base before paying nor the monetization of them and non of them gameplay wise has been good enough for me to tolerate it. When someone announces a game and says it's free to play, that's a strike against it automatically in my world. So I'll see if Embark can buck that trend.

She looks fun, hilarious, troll-ish all in one. Yep, this is my new main lol.
