Re: 67 Per Cent of UK Game Sales Were Digital Last Year

Blacksmith1985

Yeah, digital is the preferable way of purchasing for me too, but now I consider more buying Playstation 5 disc version, because some important games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Mortal Kombat 11 are available in physical only.
MK 11 is not available digitally in Ukraine, as WB saw risk of local law violation with some of the game's content (some USSR-themed costume for Scarlet or smth), and instead of excluding this content for Ukraine, they banned the whole game.

To workaround such, dare I say, stupid decisions of some publishers, physical is still the way to go.

I will never complain about amount of content.
I like my games being large.
Like Red dead redemption 2.

Short games are simply not worth bying for the full price.

I was quite happy about lenghth of TLOU2, but when I heard there was cut-out content I felt like I'd play it and never complain about the volume being too much.
So, really good game is never enough.
Not-so-good game is not worth time spending.

I play single player games all the time.
If I find myself a game with good gameplay loop, I play it a lot. Like Souls, Fallout series, Witcher 3 etc. Cyberpunk is also feels like being included to the list.
The Last of us 2 has perfect gameplay loop, I beat it 3 times and I am confident I will beat it couple times more next year.
But I never play service games. In fact, I rarely go for DLC content, except for games mentioned above.

I simply don't have enough time and energy for service games.

Requested a refund for Cyberpunk 2077, then hesitated, realising I can't leave my playthrough on the beginning of act 2. Wrote to Sony custoner service asking if I can cancel my refund request. Answer was negative - there's no such option tgey said.

Soo.. I bought myself physical copy with all those maps, postcards, stickers etc and enjoying it ever since.

I've made my request of refund for digital copy of cyberprank 2020. But nothing happens.
Apparently, there's a lot of them to process for Sony.

And so I sit here frustrated.

I'd like to play either Persona 5 royal, or Dragon quest XI S.

I don't know.
I'm being too angry at CDPR and still don't understand how they could fail so hard. It's unbelieveable.

Re: Poll: Are You Buying Cyberpunk 2077?

Where have you found all those PS5's???
I ain't finding s**t at retailers in Ukraine.
All stock is being bought out 15-30 minutes after release at every retailer..

So, I pre-ordered it for my PS4Pro, have no other choice.
PC is not an option for me, as I hate aesthetics of playing on PC, even I have a decent one.
