Before, back in the day when this was announced I was super excited. I loved (and still do) Black Flag and it's naval combat and exploration. The things they could have done was endless- I was also hoping for PvE servers so friends can just enjoy the game without worrying about griefers.
However, with Ubisofts recent exploits of terrible releases, NFT's and mistreatment of employee's.... I have doubts this game will even release- and if it does, it'll be in a god awful NFT state.
So as a fan of Sony, but also someone who enjoys PC a little bit more. (Pc - Playstation - Nintendo - Xbox) I think they need to do something, but nothing rushed. Take time to make sure they stay relevant, but don't push things in a way to make them desperate. (also make things more available for consumers)
We need more games available as a whole, and more consoles for ps5. The PS5 is having the same issue as the PS3, alil overpriced, and no games besides a small handful. (that and scalpers are ruining it all) They need to be humbled again, because Sony tends to get cocky as all can be after a good few years of good sales.
Wonder how much they paid to have deathloop in every category for the most part. (and in one case, twice) It being there instead of Returnal shows the damned bias and checks being handed over.
I mean for me it wasn't that bad, perhaps I just found the parts over in my area for a cheaper/more reasonable price compared? I don't know what to say my man, I find it not to be too difficult to do so. And eh, I've never had trouble with getting copies of windows in the past.
@Northern_Munkey Ah and the angry spouts begin. I guess you don't know the best places to look then my dude, if you want to be angry for no good reason and can only say "make a video or lies" I guess you'll never believe me. Doesn't mean you should spout things you don't know about to others though. Good day o/
Ah yes, a troll for going against what you said. I mean if you built it years ago and it runs just as well/better than a ps5- of course it'd be pricey due to the time you made it.
Listen, getting those parts now, hell even better parts than what you had gotten years ago is significantly less today. Just because the parts were expensive years ago doesn't mean they still are today, making a PC that strong isn't hard or expensive.
Now am I saying "Oh yeah just build a pc and ignore a ps5!" Hell no, consoles have a purpose and I love playstation- But that doesn't mean people shouldn't be happy to play games on both or be happy that ports get to happen.
@Northern_munkey Bro- you're literally the stereotypical console player who doesn't understand anything about PC's. I can easily build a PC that runs better than a PS5 for a better price. Good job being ignorant though o/
Man, people on the site give an opinion on playstation events that isn't 100% positive and the fanboys come in rabid attack mode. I think this article is spot on for the most part, and fanboys need to undo the blindfold they put onto themselves for once and look clearly at things.
It was pretty terrible as a showcase, announcement wise? Yeah that aspect was great, but it showed barely anything besides "title, 15 second cgi trailer"
God of War 2, Forspoken, Ghostwhire and Wonderlands were the highlights- while I'm excited for SWTORR, I need more than a logo to be satisfied and have big hype
@Amppari Ya know, checking your comments in past news articles- all you say is negative stuff and insult others, so are you here for anything but to throw out hate?
@LordOfTurnips Honestly- agreed. I was gonna say 'better' is a word alright, but I wouldn't stick it into that. Is it impressive they were able to do so, absolutely. But it just looks- not great.
@kyleforrester87 Not at all, it can use quite a bit of improvement in it's story and plot holes. However trying to stuff two large games into a single movie is a mistake that we'll only see on screen. But the RE story at it's core is fun and would be great to see used on the big screen correctly with someone who cares about the franchise. (The director described Silent Hill when he talked about 'loving' the game as a child)
This gives me some bad vibes honestly. While it's a cool poster that's simple- knowing the characters that are going to be in kinda tells me this is gonna be a trash film. "Let's take all the most well known characters, and throw them into this plot!"
I mean- why not just remake the first game into a film and go from there? Make a movie franchise and introduce new characters throughout new movies like the games did? Sure add in new flavor texts and points to make it a bit different like Marvel does, but don't destroy the core plot. This movie won't be as bad as the other live action films, but damn I expect it to run that terrible curse.
@LiterallyDoNotCare So if it's a waste of your time, why reply with being rude like others? That just doesn't make sense to me, someone posts an opinion on the article and we attack them without want of discussion? That's childish.
@TG16_IS_BAE Way to be rude and an awful person to someone who's literally just commenting what they think. That sort of mentality is that of a bully to drive someone to what they don't want to do.
@Olmaz Judging from your comment I'll take it that you haven't played DMC1-4 which honestly doing so boosts up DMC5 to a much higher level with the characters. But these kind of over the top games aren't for everyone so I can't blame you for it, but I love it lol
@Olmaz I suppose if your not into big action games it's not for you- nor if you don't like the normal Devil May Cry storylines. And if you mean the DmC 'reboot' then no, these games aren't for you.
Although I'm not going to buy a PS5 at launch, I will still be getting it. (If nothing else just for FFXVI) Bethesda being bought out by Microsoft means nothing to me due to wanting to play a majority of their games on PC anyway- which they do sell on both platforms. So I see no point in getting an Xbox, it was good choice by them to do so but I'm not a party who's effected.
It's laughable how they think raising the price tag by 10 would destroy micro transactions. The pricing for a game could be 99$ and we'd STILL be overrun by them, it's a joke honestly. Developers will do whatever they can to get an extra dollar, and that will never change.
While I haven't played Automata yet (to my dismay) I have played the original Nier and absolutely loved it. While the gameplay could be a bit wonky at times, it was still a load of fun with a story I will never forget. If they remaster or even remake the game- I will be getting it day one.
@GodGamer And it seems you don't read comments and tend to copy paste the same argument without reading when someone doesn't 100% agree with the statement. I've been on this site longer than you kid, so I didn't just 'come on here and beg'. I'm a playstation fan and I have been for decades- that doesn't mean however that I can also play games on different platforms, PC included.
I commented on how toxic these communities are becoming with one another and how things like these shouldn't be praised. And you are proving my point in insulting my words without reading them, if you had any sort of argument to defend this whole thing I would have respected you and discussed it like an adult. But instead you act like a child who decided insults are better than words.
@Nintyfan Did I even say I was owed anything? If you had even read the majority of my comment, I had even said I own a ps4. I play my playstation A LOT- that doesn't mean that I wish that other people who prefer different consoles could also play the games that I have on different platforms. I have not 'demanded' anything and it seems your blindly raged around at seeing someone not defending a ps4 exclusive.
Isn't this kind of childish? Whats wrong with wanting everyone to be able to play the game? Exclusives are a terrible practice that makes people act like children having the bigger toy "HA I HAVE THIS GAME, YOU LOSE CAUSE YOU GOT THAT ONE" Why can't we all just enjoy the same game on different platforms? I have a gaming PC and a PS4 and I enjoy both for different genres, but I hate that they don't share the same library.
It's terrible to see how toxic the playstation community can be with these comments, people need to grow up. I'm not saying the PC community are saints, but god try to have some self worth and not insult people for preferences on how they game. This article is an insult and just pushes forward people to bully others and look down on other communities.
@GodGamer It makes a lot of sense, it's an opinion. I understand if you like the game, but if I disliked it- it doesn't mean that "it makes no sense". And each of the trailers have shown that it's changing the storyline somewhat, and I call that an improvement- which is only my opinion.
I have to be honest, I'm not a fan of Final Fantasy 7. I didn't care for the game much due to how it was presented with Cloud and Sephiroth, I've enjoyed the side content and the other characters but I never cared for the original game itself.
That being said, watching these trailers I'm very impressed with the direction it's going and honestly- I'm kind of excited. It seems like a different take on the original, enough where it seems really amazing! I really hope the Remake changes my perspective of FF7 because I really want to enjoy it.
While I don't doubt Sony did amazing this year (with amazing exclusives like GoW and Spiderman) I think a good chunk of this revolves around PS+ which I can't really say is a win since it's still a stupid market practice. Without having to pay the monthly subscription, I'd probably say that the money from the psn sales would be cut by a large portion.
That being said while probably not higher than Nintendo's entire rev of the year, I'm sure it would still be pretty dang high.
Another reason why I'll refuse to buy this piece of crap- along with the lack of games (rare notable ones at that) it's an emulator that I can get for free. What a waste of time.
@SKC_Diamond You played the bugged version. The actual beta was 45 gb, the 95 is a messed up version that screwed with peoples files and had more bugs than the normal one.

Re: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion (PS5) - A Fantastic Remaster of a Fun But Flawed RPG
My unpopular opinion, the original FF7 is boring with it's story alongside it's main character while Crisis Core is far superior.
