Pre-downloaded the demo thing off the store hoping I’d have time to try it at the designated time but, well… you can guess what happened. Yep, both times.
Now I won’t bother with it. I’ll just wait until it’s RE:aady, RE:leased, and RE:viewed. 🤪😜
Killed him first try on first play through. The level itself kicked my buttocks but Adjudicator went right down from a flurry of fireballs. NG+? Nope. One-shotted me as soon as I entered the fight. After reading this article, now I now see he has a crow and stuff. I beat him so quick and from so far away the first time I didn’t even know what he looked like! I’m currently waiting for my MP to replenish itself, leaving this comment, before trying again while keeping your tips in mind. Thanks.
With Metal Gear 3 being my personal least favorite, I’ll be extremely happy with a 2 remake or rerelease. This story was mind blowing to me when I played it. And the cutscenes and Harry Gregson Williams music are like... next level.
But it sounds like it’s “4 boxes”, so maybe 1-4 are coming, like a collection for current gen. I’ll be stoked either way.
They can keep their Metal Gear Survive though.
@__jamiie I’m glad someone said it: yeah that smoke seemed real out of place. The rest looks great... I mean... I can’t complain there. But, that smoke needs some work. I feel like studios have nailed clouds, water (especially!), dirt... I haven’t seen convincing smoke yet.
@GamingFan4Lyf Oh yeah! I forgot I had Nier. I myself also just got that because it was finally cheap enough for me
I got a tad annoyed though.. I played through until I met the other character after that first big boss. I died shortly after and for whatever reason it started me back at the very beginning of the game; it never saved any progress from that (hour?) of gameplay I did. It never explained to me how saving works and I still don't know what I did wrong (admittedly, I never search online about it either). I haven't gone back to it since that first play through about 2 months ago. I will eventually but that really ticked me off and put a bad taste in my mouth. But yeah, they kinda did the bullet-hell thing in a tasteful way. That wouldn't bother me much if Returnal was like that too — very good point/example!
@GamingFan4Lyf Those bullet-hell segments turn me off too. I went through a similar thought process as this... I hope it's not what it looks like! It sort of takes me out of the moment when I see that bullet-hell stuff. It feels exactly that: arcadey.
Huge fan of Dark Souls here, I didn’t care for bloodborne. I am not one to complain or comment on frame rates but WOW it was jarring going from DS1 and DS3’s fluid 60fps. That being said, I know there’s a massive fanbase for the game and so I hope this comes for those who want it! It would go a long way to make it more enjoyable. I’ll keep playing my Demons Souls and Dark Souls, thank you.
:: shrugs :: I dunno, I think it looks good. I was watching Alison Road and that got cancelled. Was watching Visage and I am waiting to pull the trigger this weekend because it’s on sale. And now this.
To me, I still need something that plays like PT and is actually a finished game. Right now Visage looks like the best choice and it rated well, to boot. Now we have this as an option. I count 2 games and 1 of them isn’t even out yet so the market is not saturated and is in need of some pants wetting. Count me in.
Well this is exciting, sure! I never finished the original admittedly. I got really far and then I think I got sidetracked with something else in my backlog, or something new came out. Anyway, I loved it and would equally love a PS5 version or whatever. Anything Kojima does I'd buy. If Kojima farted into a microphone and the game was showing the wave lengths and noise spikes from it, I'd buy it (on sale).
I wonder if it'll be a free upgrade or a whole new release sort of.
Shade? If that's shade I've been dissing people my entire life and I need to calm down. Pissed? If that's pissed I'd have been nominated for angriest person alive EVER.
Welp.... I'm upset. But for sure I am able to recognize that it will be weeellll worth it in the end. I hold this series to a high standard so this will ensure it is met. I have a ton of other games to play anyway.
2 is the most depressing thing ever and I absolutely love it. That sounds so sick but it’s true. I also love the 1st one for different reasons but man these are some great scary, perhaps scariest, games. If something gets announced I’ll buy it day -1. I guess that’s technically a preorder. So yeah, that.
This game is the reason I got a PS5. ....ok and Demons Souls. There will be a ton of other games I know but these two are my golden gooses. ....geese. ....eggs....
Really enjoyed reading through this. And I agree: an article of this tone absolutely needs to be posted. I feel lots of gamers who never played this are going to be shocked at how it plays and the pacing of it all. But it is almost like required reading; you NEED to play this game. It's just you need to have the correct expectations going in.

Re: PS5 Firmware Update: All the Features You May Not Know About
My number one feature here is being able to hide "Games" where "Games" is a ton of demos I've downloaded. I'm so happy I can hide all that crap now!

Re: Take-Two Boss Believes Players Were 'Ready' for $70 Games
Every “boss” I ever knew I beat, and if I was lucky, without using any continues.
Honestly though, what a tone-deaf jerk... $70 a game during and after a pandemic where many lost work and jobs. Go pound sand, “boss.”
