So you’re a detective and you enter peoples minds and waltz around the real world. Isn’t this the game, Observer? The one with Rutger Hauer? Seems like this idea has been used to death.
That pawn thing, made my pawn permanently silent after repeatedly saying the support statements on repeat. Still surprised that that particular taught discipline isn’t more common.
Trying to match fallout’s success may not work with a reality based Tomb Raider. Fallout is ridiculous and unpredictable, TR has to match that energy with its own wacky history. Monsters, traps, unexplored ruins and puzzles have to mesh together. It’ll never take off without that video game charm.
Having played a bit more, it seems to be a Celeste metroidvania. Some sections require perfect timing. Using a child’s toy and momentum it works as advertised, your floaty blob not so much. Timing works in some situations, not in digital torture.
So instead of taking the L quietly, Microsoft opted for the nuclear option and just closed everything. Now Microsoft is biting its thumb, huddled in a dark corner. You can almost hear it whispering “PS5…PS5…”
Poor bethesda, you score the biggest rpg in Skyrim then fallout, and then you sold your souls to Microsoft. Now soulless, you struggled to make Starfield and now come to the realization that you need help.
I get it with FF7. The limitations you had in the game, not being able to play as Vincent, pain in the butt mini games, same story as original. Not much to explore, pseudo open world, if anything I’d say it’s just getting old. Same story overall of the original, it doesn’t really add any mystery to the plate.
A better approach would be to change things up, perhaps start over with what worked. Summons especially.
Gonna have to dust off my disc and see if it recognizes everything. Intriguing development on this. Not looking forward to siding with the commonwealth, but saved it for last.
Walking across a rock slab, 2 death alarms go off. Seriously, I’ve seen pawns jump off cliffs and completely miss the landing.
Also can we fix the pawns getting stuck on everything? Walls, supports, rocks, hell even seen them stuck on nothing.
The best is them getting stuck on being unable to help in this quest, repeating it continuously. Gave my pawn the silence specialization. A real thing amazingly.
Owned it all back in the PS4 days. May give it another whirl at some point. Nuka-World and Far Harbor are must haves for the game, especially if you like Gulpers.
Well the original had that unkillable monster. Same everything else. While it was a fun game (the first one), the sequels didn’t really change anything.
Best to move forward, not back. After remake of demon souls, nobody asked for a remake of Dark Souls.
So a female Han Solo with an attitude to match, goes toe-to-toe with the big wigs in a bid for freedom of something. Stealth, action, blasters. Lotta cutscenes but no mention of choice.

Re: Mini Review: Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin (PS4) - A Monster of a Sequel and a Superb RPG
Great game with a ton of endgame content.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Will Get Free Post-Launch DLC
So, they had an initial batch of levels and the ones deemed too difficult were saved as DLC. Underhanded and crafty. Day one purchase.

Re: New World, Amazon's Big-Money MMORPG from 2021, Is Seemingly Adventuring to PS5
Well it’s no Dark Age of Camelot, but I’d give it a whirl.
Re: Halo 1 Remaster Being Considered for PS5, New Report Claims
I’d rather have Fable.
Re: PS5's Anime Waifu Dress-Up Game Headed by Zelda: Breath of the Wild Designer
So will it be a gacha game where this outfit shoots fire and lets you float, whereas the “free” outfit allows floating? Pay to win or pay to dress up?
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for June 2024?
Guess it’s time to go buy something, selection is insulting this month.
Re: Classic PS1 Platformer Tomba! Arrives on PS5 in August
I think I rented this from Blockbuster.
Re: Tweaked Puzzles, Better Combat, and Updated Enemies in Silent Hill 2 PS5
I remember the town being limited in exploration with many buildings inaccessible. Would like to see this more fleshed out in remake.
Re: Astro Bot Raises the Bar for Sony's PS Studios Intros on PS5
Genius game. Shame it was a demo first, although what a demo! This will be a must have going forward.
Re: Viral Hit Horror Series Garten of Banban Is Now Available on PS5, PS4
I wish my kindergarten was that big. Didn’t have any mascots though. We did have Romper Room back in the 70s. Missed out on mascots.

Re: Astro Bot Looks Absolutely Glorious, Lands on PS5 This September
Mario killer.
Re: Ubisoft Pirate Game Skull and Bones Gets Trial Version, Price Cut as Player Count Reportedly Plummets
Best to go down with the ship.
Re: This Is What Monster Hunter Stories Looks Like Running on PS5
Played these on the Switch. Turn based monster hunter. Crafting and a long, long RPG.
Re: 13 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Are Available to Download Now
Still have Tunic and puzzlevania Animal Well. RDR2 still runs crashtacular.
Re: Summer Game Fest Hosts New Game Reveal from One of 2K's 'Biggest and Most Beloved Franchises'
Gonna go with Borderlands as the movie comes out soon.
Re: Godzilla Invades Dave the Diver with Free DLC on 23rd May
Turn off vibration with this game, killed my R2 with the sea-doos.
Re: Live-Action Tomb Raider Series Officially Ordered by Amazon Prime Video

Re: PS Plus Adds Two Hour Trial for PS5's The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered
No I won’t try The Last of Us 2. Not on a plane or a train, and not with my green…
Re: Next Week's Huge PS Plus Purge Now Extended to 35 PS5, PS4 Games
My only disappointment was that Teardown was actually a timed bomb disposal game.
Re: Mini Review: Animal Well (PS5) - Mysterious Metroidvania a Pure Puzzle Box on PS Plus
Having played a bit more, it seems to be a Celeste metroidvania. Some sections require perfect timing. Using a child’s toy and momentum it works as advertised, your floaty blob not so much. Timing works in some situations, not in digital torture.
Re: Mini Review: Animal Well (PS5) - Mysterious Metroidvania a Pure Puzzle Box on PS Plus
This game is puzzling, chased by a ghost cat, using bubbles to get to places to get stuck. So much confusing fun.
Re: Any Hope of Vampire FPS Redfall Biting PS5 Appears Dead
So instead of taking the L quietly, Microsoft opted for the nuclear option and just closed everything. Now Microsoft is biting its thumb, huddled in a dark corner. You can almost hear it whispering “PS5…PS5…”
Re: 4 New PS Plus Essential Games Up for Download Now
It’s soccer here. Football is NFL.
Re: Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 PvP Multiplayer Looking More and More Likely
Any game with intelligent space rats deserves to have PvP.
Re: Sony Doubles Down on Helldivers 2 PSN Requirement by Taking It Off Sale for PC in Numerous Countries
Overblown. Nearly every online game has some requirement for signing something. Kids these days.
Re: The Elder Scrolls, Fallout Dev Wants to Shorten Time Between Games
Poor bethesda, you score the biggest rpg in Skyrim then fallout, and then you sold your souls to Microsoft. Now soulless, you struggled to make Starfield and now come to the realization that you need help.
Just sad at what they’ve become.
Re: Sea of Thieves Season 12 Is Out Today Alongside PS5 Version
Really think a Black Flag MMO would have been better.
Re: Fallout 4 PS5 Now Available for PS Plus Collection Owners
Nothing like jumping in again only to be promptly killed by a mosquito on jet.

Re: Confusion as Fallout 4 PS Plus Owners Unable to Download Free Next-Gen Update
Seems PC has it worse as the update broke everything.

Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed Hexe Out in 2026, More Linear Than Open World
Not interested in a limited AC game. Maybe do some research into what people want, not what your directors ego.
Re: Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered Update Quietly Removes Sexy Lara Croft Pinups
Kinda pointless as the games were marketed towards guys.
Re: Silent Hill 2 Remake Protagonist James Seemingly Got a Quiet Makeover
He looks like a Ken doll. Guy lost his wife, despair brought him to SH, I’d think he’d have worry lines and be a bit more unkempt.

Re: Strategy Sequel SteamWorld Heist 2 Sets Sail on PS5, PS4 This August
Great game series, I’ll wait the 8 months to be put on Plus.
Re: 14 More Games Land on PS Plus Extra, Premium Today
More Lego games, my backlog keeps growing due to DD2.
Re: Random: YouTuber Calculates Approximate Fallout TV Protagonist's Season 1 XP Gain
She seems to have some interesting perks as well. Maybe Iron Stomach or Weirdness Magnet.
Re: New PS5 Pro Leak Points to Significant Graphics Push from Sony
Are there any current games that would benefit from this upgrade.
Re: Harold Halibut (PS5) - Great Style, Little Substance in Fishy Sci-Fi Adventure
Unfortunately people with a creative design are usually not prone to taking criticism on their work.
Re: Prepare for Fallout 4 PS5 with the PS Store Sale Live Now
Owned it all back in the PS4 days. May give it another whirl at some point. Nuka-World and Far Harbor are must haves for the game, especially if you like Gulpers.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Rage-Inducing Retry Wording Has Been Quietly Re-Worked
After losing an hour on the final myself, having known now what to expect, it was easier. That said, worst game over idea ever.
Re: Confusion as Duelling Reports Confirm/Deny Existence of Dead Space 2 Remake
Well the original had that unkillable monster. Same everything else. While it was a fun game (the first one), the sequels didn’t really change anything.

Re: Upcoming Gacha Sensation Zenless Zone Zero Plotting PS5 Technical Test
Exploring a complicated urban environment is way more fun than a fantasy or science fiction.
Re: Stellar Blade Director Cites Taxi Driver Strike, Retro Sci-Fi as Inspirations
In America, a simple “I had a dream” would have sufficed.
Re: Players of PS5, PS4 Racer Disney Speedstorm Are Seething with Road Rage
New Disney CEO, new greedy schemes to fleece the rabble.
Re: Horror-Tinged Fishing Hit Dredge Is Getting a Live-Action Movie Adaptation
I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess we won’t be getting the bad ending for the movie. Not that the other ending is much better.
