I thought it was pretty interesting. Not bothered in the slightest. Happy others het to play a Horizon game, even it’s a Lego one

Pretty meh to me. Didn’t help that the secondary host was dull. They probably should’ve found someone with more hosting experience. There were some nice indie titles in there, but nothing that made me crazy excited like when TGA announced Hades 2

@BeerIsAwesome @freddquadros thank you both!! I’m really looking forward to it then! Appreciate the quick help 😎😎

That Persona question is going to give me unwarranted and absolutely unrealistic false hope about a Persona 6 announcement. It’s gotta be coming eventually… right?!

Is there a single player component to Halo? I’ve never played it before so I have no clue. If there is, I’d be interested

They’ll drag TLOU2 out but they short changed TLOU1? So much great content emitted that could’ve bought them at least a few more episodes

I’ll go with things I know won’t happen because yolo:

Persona 6 | LAD 9/Judgment 3 | FFXVII | Mass Effect 4 | Witcher 4 | Bloodborne 2

If any of these unlikely reveals/updates happen, I’ll be a happy wittle gamer.

If they do dynasty mode right, then I’m there Day 1. I spent countless hours as a kid making irrelevant colleges national champs. Hopefully dynasty is still going to be fun to play

@ShogunRok as you should have. You did the right thing 😎

I’ve been actually craving to go back to OT2 for awhile now. So if this is the case, I can gladly wait for OT1. Pretty awesome news if it happens

I’ll give it a shot as well. I’ll probably like it since I am easy to please

I’m putting it in my will that my dog gets my PSN account. Then if she dies, I guess my future children can have it. But my dog is probably immortal so good luck to them fighting that one out in doggie court

Can someone tell me what day the “main showcase” is for SGF? I know they have other ones like Microsoft (I think) and Ubisoft. But I have no clue which one is the main one since it’s worded weirdly on their website. Thanks!

Pretty clearly Astrobot for me. It looks phenomenal IMO

@Savage_Joe oh I had no clue. That friggen blows.

Seems like Sony is pushing Astrobot to be their next big Platformer mascot. I’m all for it 😎😎 Admittingly, I’m not breaking any “stage/level” records, but it’s still super fun regardless. 80 levels will surely keep players busy.

Is this really a big deal? Seems so minor with how many sign ins people have nowadays

80 levels??? I didn’t catch that before. This game looks like it’ll be worth every penny. I’ll probably support it Day 1 because it’s clear how much love the devs put into the first game. Here’s hoping the 2nd is just as great!

I was really hoping for at least a little teaser of SM2 DLC in the State Of Play. I wanted to wait for all of it to release before diving into NG+. It felt really good playing it. It also looked beautiful on my OLED as well

I’ll probably replay one of the first two games soonish. My summer games are really only SMT V and maybe Elden Ring DLC depending on how much content it has. I’m probably missing something though 😂😂

The only “Warrior-esque” type game I’ve played was Persona 5 Strikers. I absolutely adored it. So I’ll give this one a chance. It looked fun

It looks like it improved on so much from the first game which was already awesome. Tempting Day 1 buy for me. Looks excellent

I didn’t feel like this State of Play was necessary if that’s what was being shown.

@nomither6 I’ve never owned a PS3. I skipped that Gen due to college/sports and work.

I’ve been tempted to buy this since its release but I’ve had some amazing self-restraint. Playing Days Gone, DQXI S and a replay of Yakuza: Like A Dragon has kept me busy. But I don’t know if I can resist much longer 😭😭 And I haven’t even bought Baldur’s Gate 3 yet. Too many great games nowadays 😍😍😍

PS2 games on Premium is a great step forward. But I’d love it if they’d just let me download the PS3 games on premium instead of streaming. For some reason, every time I stream, it lags so hard. My internet is fine with non-PS3 games. But damn, it’s hard to play GoW when you have to button mash and it doesn’t recognize you destroying your fingertips because of the lag 😭😭😭

Replaying Yakuza: Like A Dragon. I was itching so bad to replay Infinite Wealth. But I want to get the PS4 platinum of it (already got the PS5 platinum) a year or two later. There may not be another game out for a bit in the franchise so I want to hold off on a 2nd playthrough until news is announced

Happy weekend everyone!

I’m already sold because Atlus. But I’m going to watch this anyways during SGF. I’m sure it’ll hype me up even more

I still need to play Unicorn Overlord. Bet I’ll love it though. Vanillaware is awesome

Yeah there’s no way they aren’t making a sequel for this game.

Can’t wait until 2125 to see what Madden calls it then

Dragon Quest XI S: Definitive Edition

I am FINALLY almost through all of Act III. What I have left is: 5th Wheel Trial thingy, pretty much all of the evil Tickington stuff (I’m missing 3 Pastwords so yay, gotta find them ), 3 final costumes left (Rab/Serena/Jade), the actual final boss of Act III then the secret boss. Not sure I have much else to do. Already completed all of Drustan’s 5 trials, most quests are complete, etc. Oh I’m saving the last puff puff for the platinum trophy because… uhhh, well…. Puff puff puff puff pufffff 😈😈😈😈

Funny thing (to me) is I played DQXI (original) back in like 2018 maybe. Could’ve been 2020 tbh. Anyways, I reached Sniflheim, completed its arc then decided it just didn’t click with me. I tried my damnest to love it but it wasn’t hitting with me. Fast forward to 2024 and I gave DQXI S a proper second try. Absolutely adore it now.

Just a reminder to folks that not every game clicks the first time you play it. Take some time (or years) off and retry it later. Maybe you’ll end up loving it! Have a great weekend, everyone!!!

I can’t imagine how beautiful GoT would be on an optimized PC. Still one of my favorites from the PS4 generation (including 3rd party releases)

I just want a Bloodborne 2 announcement 😭😭 But I’ll take any Elden Ring I can get

SE has a budgeting/marketing problem. Their expectations are unrealistic. If they keep this up, it’s only going to lead to more lay-offs. I can’t imagine what huge expectations they will put on DQXII whenever that releases in the future.

I hope SE can rebound and adjust their strategy because they’re in the top 3 for my favorite game studios (probably #1 or #2 with Sega). Some of their smaller, niche titles are brilliant.

Why not just make the “modified outfits” original style a variation/secondary option? I don’t personally care about it but I could see why people feel misled and slighted. If I was one of those people, I’d probably be hesitant to pre-order a game from them a second time around.

I bought the game because the combat looked like a blast. I was not disappointed.

@Luigia On most things I’d agree with this sentiment. For this scenario though, I’d rather wait it out even if it never happens.

I would love some new IPs. Right now, it’s pretty much just continuation/sequels of last gens’ games. Hopefully Sony comes out swinging soon

I’m waiting for a proper Sony handheld. Might be waiting forever, but still :’)

Glad I played Stellar Blade first. Had a feeling it’d get another update fast. Playing a ton of DQXI S before I jump into Fallout 4 so I’m happy about this 😎😎

I’m playing what probably everyone else is playing… DQXI S

Jokes aside, I’m working through Act 2. Loving it again. I’m playing 1 Act at a time so I took a big break from it after Act 1. Funnily enough, I played this originally years ago (not the Definitive Edition) and didn’t enjoy it. Bought the Definitive Edition and got hooked. Funny how games sometimes don’t stick the first time

I really don’t think it means a mainline game every year. The easiest way to do this would be to just create a spin off series for each of 3/4/5 and 6 when it comes out.

I bought Stellar Blade as a pre-order physical release. Well worth it for me at least.

Absolutely loved the game. Its hardest fight was the last battle by far (which it should be). But it was a lot of fun. Combat is fluid and not overly complex. One aspect was clearly influenced by “Spartan Rage” in GoW which was fine 😂 Idc about the censorship stuff because I wasn’t interested in this game for the horny horny 😈😈 aspect. I kinda liked that there weren’t 100s of characters in it as well. Focused mainly on the 3 protagonists which worked very well. You got enough depth with all of them to understand their views and personality. Story wasn’t anything revolutionary. But not every developer has A+++ story tellers. Still no excuse, but whatever

Only major flaw (to me) is any swimming section where you had to push boards in the water. Or just water sections in general. Some terrible controls would get Eve stuck. It really isn’t a major flaw but just something that was terrible to deal with It also sucked when I’d fall somewhere and die that I couldn’t just use a WB pump to respawn at that spot I fall from. Minor gripe though

Overall, loved my first play through of it. Waiting for NG+ because they’ll eventually release DLC. Plus more suits.

Every man for themselves though

Honestly, I’m fine with waiting for it to come to PS5 until it’s fully ready to go. They’ll nail this game just like Hades. It got me into roguelites. Take your time! Worth the wait 😎😎

It’s going to be a 10/10. Pretty obvious. Just give it to me already 😭😭

They air balled a layup

It’d be great if they brought it at least to online retail eventually. I don’t care to get the deluxe edition for a franchise I’ve never played. Plus the shipping is $20 so I’m paying $100. Just give me a normal physical release 😭😭😭

Absolutely fine with this month. Tunic will be near the top of my list. Ghostrunner I could never get into. I’m not big on first person games for the most part tho. So I doubt I try the sequel. I’m just happy I have something here to play :’)

I hope this doesn’t mean no Octopath Traveler III (if that was ever going to happen). I love a lot of Square’s “niche” titles

@PapaGlitch Gollum with tits would sell like hotcakes tbh
