If I go digital, I own physically nothing. If I get the physical copy then I have to have a disk inserted and listen to the drive do its thing. Decisions.
A non-GoT action, open world game. Sign me up. At least with Souls games, you get a sense of accomplishment that others cannot. I’ll take this method of gaming over the twitch mechanics of Sekiro and GoT.
@Danloaded No. it has an open world, but the controls suck and while it’s atmospheric, things just drag along with little explanation. Not much of an exploration game so much as a try, try, again to figure out things. Like tossing a seed at plants and rocks.
Honestly, having beaten the game, all the missed opportunities for side content that wasn’t there, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Too little, too late.
So to have online anything, you’d need PS Plus, then you’d have to pay another exorbitant fee for game pass? No thanks.
Seems Xbox may be realizing that their small base and whatever the PC gaming base is, are not enough to garner a profit. Compared to sales from Skyrim which was shared across everything, to the current limited projections, Microsoft may be admitting defeat.
To early to tell if they relent and allow the exclusivity to end on their part. Brings the hardships of Sega to mind.
I just want a go-kart to collect trash, play the real estate market, meet beautiful ladies and kick some ass without hearing “so itchy” every 5 minutes.
Seems to be a generation gap with this one. As a Gen X I find this stuff hilarious and fun to play. Of course we grew up with C64, so games pushing the PC envelope are refreshing.

Re: Turns Out You Won't Lose Access to Those Discovery TV Shows on PlayStation After All
Good because games were next on the list. The one fault with digital media is it doesn’t physically exist.
Re: Nomura Promises Death Won't be Cheated in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Maybe the death won’t be a human one this time.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Is Huge, May Take 100 Hours to Do Everything
Pushing 268 hours on Dying Light 2, I have no problem with this.

Re: 19 Amazing Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
Shadowrun, Tinykin, Grime (action adventure dark rpg), Proteus. The indie games look a bit more fun than a rehash of GTA or a FF dud.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla?
It’ll come to extra at some point, I’ll wait.
Re: PS Plus Extra Game for December May Have Leaked Early
With Rebirth around the corner, why not?
Re: E3 Is Officially Dead
It followed G4. It’s a gamer revolution rotating rigmarole.
Re: Fortnite Fans Can't Believe the Price of the Game's New PS5, PS4 Microtransactions
Never change gacha games, show that sin of greed.
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Rise of the Ronin Out in March 2024
Oh good, a GoT clone without the small trigger window. Worst part of Ghost, never made it out of tutorial.

Re: Earth-Sized MMO Light No Fire Is the Next Title from No Man's Sky Dev Hello Games
Day one purchase.
Re: PlayStation Fans Quickly Noticed Solid Snake's Fortnite Booty Nerf
Kids don’t care or notice such things. It’s adults who have the problem.
Re: Feature: We No Longer Accept Cash Stored in Underwear, and 8 Other GTA 6 Easter Eggs You Missed
The dirt bikes in the intersection scream’s Philadelphia.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Massive Update 2.1 Out Now, Featuring Metro, Expanded Romance, and More
More secrets. Great. Why not add some sightseeing locations? Oh, did that too. How about fishing?
Re: Final Fantasy 16's First Expansion Should Be Revealed This Month
Honestly, having beaten the game, all the missed opportunities for side content that wasn’t there, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Too little, too late.
Re: More Resident Evil Remakes Are on the Way, Capcom Confirms
Can we not? 5 is passable, but 6 is just awful.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.1 Adds Metro System, On-Person Radio, Car Races, and Much More
I’d expect a New Game + around the same time you’re able to skip the intro. So probably never.
Re: SPINE's Cinematic CQC Gameplay Will Send Shivers Down Yours on PS5
Waiting for people to compare this to Cyberpunk
Re: You'd Have to Be Insane to Watch This Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth 10 Minute Story Trailer
Played the last game dubbed, will play the next one dubbed. This argument is old.
Re: Random: Yes, Netflix Really Is Getting GTA for Christmas
Can my phone run this?
Re: SEGA Wonders Whether Releasing Sonic Superstars Next to Mario Was a Good Idea
If you think it’s too good to be true, it is. Common Sense seems to be lacking from game companies, too many strong egos.
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Update 5 Is Monstrous, Adds an Entire Epilogue, New Difficulty Settings, and Much More
If they didn’t fix that leaky faucet, it’s not complete.

Re: Silent Hill: Ascension Was Written by 'Real People', Not AI
“I like to make jams.” I’m guessing these berries are naturally fermented.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Player Finds Unconventional Way To Free Roam as Venom
Same movement and attacks of prototype.
Re: The Last of Us 2 Remastered's Bonus Levels Incorporated into TV Series
It makes sense. Tv needs that touchy/feely aspect while the game didn’t need that added baggage.
Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster's Anxiety-Inducing Lost Levels Revealed
The sewers. A dark, moist environment perfectly suited to molds, fungus and spores. What fun.
Re: Oh No! Ubisoft Appears to Be Testing In-Game Ads in Old Assassin's Creed Titles
Anarchy Online did this to go FTP. Although it was mostly just limited to monitors in game, it also blended in enough to be safely ignored.
This updated version would be better served as a banner or a splash page at title (DL2 does this).
Re: Players Point Out Destiny 2's New Crossover Cosmetics Probably Cost More Than The Witcher 3 and All Its DLC
Probably will end when the Sony Digital lawsuit gets going.
Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster's Roguelike Mode Reportedly Comprises 12 Levels
I’d go with 12 different environments rather than levels.
Re: Forget Kong, GameMill's The Walking Dead: Destinies Could Be Amongst 2023's Worst
The only positive is the “What if?” Storyline. Oh and shooting someone in the face 20 times with a shotgun, to no effect.
Re: Magical PS5 FPS Immortals of Aveum Is Probably Coming to PS Plus at Some Point
Expect this, the other desert/magic title (for something), Gollum, and good ole Superman 64.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for November 2023?
Always nice to see how quickly I can lose at Nobunaga’s Ambition.
Re: Star Kaitlyn Dever Could Be The Last of Us TV Show's Abby
@Jireland92 In this scene we need you to mercilessly beat this old man..
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth ESRB Rating Teases Swearing, Alcohol, Impalement
All I want is to impale a Marlboro. A nice Flare, and we got a vegetarian delight.
Re: Rumour: Dragon Age Dreadwolf Really Is Set to Release in 2024
How will Dragon Age ever top BG3 with the romance of characters?
Re: Activision Pulling Modern Warfare 3 Maps Already Due to Grim Spawns
What was fun in many PvP fantasy games now comes to modern. Never gets old.
Re: Like a Dragon Gaiden Is So Confusing Even RGG Studio Got Mixed Up
I just want a go-kart to collect trash, play the real estate market, meet beautiful ladies and kick some ass without hearing “so itchy” every 5 minutes.
Re: Konami Is Creating a New Silent Hill Production Team
I’m going to hold my breath. Then I’m going to get into my air car and goto my job at the 10 star resort where I do nothing. Konami is a pipe dream.
Re: PS5, PS4's Monthly Active Users Is Increasing
That’s a lot of PS plus users.
Re: Only Sony Will Allow Crazy PS5, PS4 Indie Horror Christmas Massacre
Seems to be a generation gap with this one. As a Gen X I find this stuff hilarious and fun to play. Of course we grew up with C64, so games pushing the PC envelope are refreshing.
Re: Assassin's Creed Mirage Patch 1.0.5 Finally Adds Option to Disable Chromatic Aberration
Depends on game, film grain tends to work better in samurai games where the environment works with it.
Re: All PS Plus Members Handed a Movie Discount on Sony Pictures Core
Why bother? It’ll all be on some streaming platform in a few months or on YouTube after a year.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for November 2023 Announced
4/10, and 2 6/10 games. Hard pass, pitiful choice.
Re: Still Wakes the Deep Is Dripping with Atmosphere in New Gameplay Trailer
Hopefully something other than the Rapture where, memories and anomalies are the mystery. Looks like a more horror based walking simulator.
Re: What the **** Is This Insane Animal Crossing-Style Game in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth?
What if all the mini games are this in-depth? Could be that you’re able to take an active part in the real estate business.
Re: Rumour: This Might Be Assassin's Creed Red's Main Character
So which character is this on Ubisoft’s anime Laserhawk?
Re: Skull Island: Rise of Kong Given Just a Single Year of Development
A one year development cycle is akin to ET for the 2600’s 8 week development cycle.
