Add a hissing button, maybe an option to leap up out of the way of attacks (my poor kitty has been eaten a few times already 😥) and, of course, the option to customise your cat's look and this would be GOTY, no, GOTG.
😉
I'm really enjoying it, it's definitely lived up to the hype for me.
Judgement for weird Japanese goodness, Returnal for sci-fi blasting fun and Gran Turismo 7 when I feel.the need, the need for......nah, not going to finish that.
😉
I may or may not start something else, maybe join the Club and finally give GotG a go or maybe Little Hope. With the temperature continuing to rise, maybe I need something that will send chills down my spine. Keep me cool.
😝
Enjoy whatever you decide to play or do and don't get sunburn!
@Bismarck wrong, wrong, wrong. As I said, ALL games made are inspired by something that came before. They all borrow certain elements and traits from each other, just like any other medium. HFW is a fantastic game and looks and plays very differently from Valhalla, it really does. The core combat is proof of this. You need to stop your 'crusade' to 'save' gamers and gaming and just enjoy what you do enjoy, it's really that ***** simple.
@Northern_munkey oh no, you mistook me for him? The MS fanboy? Oh how could you!
😉
I'm sure I had this avatar first. It's mine I tells ya!
@Bez87 VIP Premium tier? You're overselling it a tad, mate.
😉
Extra is really good, Premium will be too but not quite yet. Maybe every single game known to mankind should have been available Day One but that's not the case, so suck it up. If they had of done y'all would've found something else to complain about anyway, even if you'd had to make something up.
@Northern_munkey fishing? I think you might have me confused with someone else
Only fishing I have ever done is in video games!
😉
Yeah, maybe we should all just put him on ignore.
@Bismarck 🤦🤦🤦
Horizon series is fantastic, wtf are you going on about?
You think that game was made by lazy developers? Are you nuts?!
Every game borrows from something else or is built upon that which came before. It's more that there are types of games that you don't like but others do. Let them enjoy these games and you enjoy what you do. The idea that we as a gamers need to be up in arms over everything, all the bloody time is exhausting.
@Bismarck You again? Man, you're relentless I'll give you that!
One of those gamers out to save their fellow gamers from their 'poor' choices or just an insufferable and repetitive bore? I'll let the people decide.
😉
I don't like Valhalla either but let people play what they want, without judgement from the likes of you. It's got to stop, this self-righteous arrogance. Try and be a bit more positive, perhaps. Go on, give it a try at least.
😝
A smaller, more linear and stealth-focused AC game would be very welcome. Setting is almost irrelevant. Or they just go back in time and remake the first one. It could definitely be improved!
Seems like a waste of time worrying about this. There's plenty of new games being made, buy one of those instead and forget about TLoU or any other remake.
State of some of the comments. Some people should find something else to play if they're not interested in buying the remake, and they ought to stop with the self-righteous attitude and hailing themselves as the gatekeepers of gaming or some such nonsense.
Honestly, all this hobby of ours seems to do is make so many people mad. Maybe, I don't know, take up something that doesn't cause you such distress and angst.
I've just finished playing Man of Medan through Plus Extra, inspired to do so after watching a playthrough of The Quarry and overall I thought it was alright. A tad short but it is part of an Anthology series. I understand the reasons why they didn't, but it would've been much better if they'd released them all at the same time.
These types of games aren't for everyone but I do enjoy them, from time to time. Will likely give Little Hope a try within the next few weeks. From what I have seen, The Quarry looks pretty good and worth playing at some point.
Desperate for clicks? Just post an article about The Last of Us series!
😉
Don't want it, don't buy it. It's that ***** simple, folks. Gamers are just the worst, they really are. Act like self-entitled man children whenever the chance arises, isn't this hobby meant to be fun?!
I'd rather play this than Hogwarts or Gotham Knights. I thought people wanted new IP?
😒
Disappointing news for me, but I'm sure I won't struggle for things to play until it is released. Maybe we'll all be Dead Spaced-out by Jan after playing Callisto Protocol in Dec, and what something different to play. Could do very well in Jan.
@Blacksmith1985 hmm, I don't really view HFW as a RPG though and AAA games push the envelope with graphics and audio design, ER clearly doesn't. And name a game that isn't combat-focused lol.
Also, I'd advise you to leave some time between finishing ER and starting HFW. At least that's what I've got from others that played ER.
Enjoy your gaming, it's a hobby that has helped me in the past when I needed something else to occupy my mind.
Seems churlish to point this out, but HFW had an official release date before ER. FromSoft deliberately releases their game close to HFW, not the other way round. I see this fiction posted all the time online, almost as a way of further taunting GG and Sony.
I don't see the similarities anyway, they're both open world and released within a week of each other but that's it. Might as well compare Far Cry with ER.
Everyone should try to treat everybody else with respect, not just in gaming but in life in general.
The game will release when it is ready, there are plenty of other games to play in the meantime. Hope it does come out this year but if it's delayed then so be it. It's really not the end of the world.
@Majk_SVK Hell yeah, improved frame rate, 4K options, Dualsense features etc - all of that would have me running back to it for a third playthrough in a heartbeat.
Which is why it won't happen of course. Damn you, Rockstar lol.
At least we have the improved The Witcher 3 to look forward to on PS5, another GOAT contender.
GT 7 of course, got to start tackling the Menu's again but really my focus is on the Circuit Experiences and going back to the Driving Licence tests, trying to get a Gold on each one.
Resi 8 is my 'main' SP game, taken out three bosses (House Beneviento was everything people said it was, creepy as hell!) and progressing nicely. Found most things but I'm sure there's a goat in the church. I can hear it but I can't see the darned thing. Brilliant game though, a lot of fun.
Did start Observation last weekend but only played it for a couple of hours. It's definitely... interesting rather than brilliant. Will try to put another hour or two into it this weekend.
Ha yeah, don't dare ever criticise Elden Ring. Some people really don't like that!
😝
I'm sure it's a very good game BUT I'm positive the hype was over the top (hailing it as the Greatest of All Time!).
Anyway, I'll never play it even if it ends up on Extra. No point as I wouldn't be able to finish it. Not saying I wouldn't get any enjoyment out of it, for a few hours at least, but I think it's too hard and I'm too impatient lol.
@NEStalgia maybe they should make a 2D platformer instead.
😉
I do think there's some truth in what you said, lots of gamers are genuine fans of FromSoft games, but there does seem to be an element of 'bragging' rights about playing and being able to finish their games.
@cheonseojin I know, it's getting really bloody tiresome.
Constructive criticism is fine BUT almost every single thread on this site is ruined by miserable gits. Don't like PlayStation, go to another site. It's that bloody simple!
I'm not sure VR is for me (matter of space and cost) but I hope this is a success and delivers really good gaming experiences for all that purchase it. At least Sony are trying to innovate.
TV show based on The Last of Us is announced, people on here say what's the point, we know the story, set it in that world but a new story with new characters.
Horizon 2074 is announced, going to focus on aspects not covered by the game but with new characters and be very much it's own thing. People still moan!
Cyberpunk completed last weekend (really good game, Johnny Silverhand is a legend!) so needed a new 'main' and decided time to scare myself silly with Resi 8.
Actually it's not that scary, more like the recent IT films in horror as blockbuster entertainment. It has its moments for sure (albeit I'm not far into it) but it's certainly not quite as intense as say Resi 2 remake or 7. It's absolutely beautiful though, Castle Dimitrescu interiors especially. I could definitely live in that place...if it wasn't for the scary vampire ladies, or maybe that would be the main draw.
😉
More of the wonderful GT 7 and wonder if I may start one of the games on Extra, something different like Deliver Us The Moon. Really spoilt for choice at present!
Enjoy yourselves and stay safe, it's a crazy world out there.
Edit - Actually on second thoughts, going to give Observation a go instead. It's a game I've been particularly curious about since it's release.
Paid for Extra, had fun looking through the list then searching for games not on the list but should be (Deliver Us the Moon), added some to my Wishlist, but haven't tried anything yet as playing Resi 8 and GT 7.
I bought it mainly for Returnal and Stray. Just three months to start with, will see how it goes. Give it time and I think it will grow into something really special BUT as a compliment to my normal practice of buying the occasional big game Day One and waiting for sales on others, not in replacement of.
Extra for me, main draws being Returnal and Stray in mid-July. Beyond that I'm either replaying a DC version (Death Stranding) or trying something that I probably will give up on after a few hours.
I think it will grow into something special but at present it's just a nice option to have.

Returnal and Judgement are my two SP titles and GT 7 when I'm in the mood for burning rubber.

I like Returnal even if I'm not entirely sure I'm making much actual progress lol. It's hard though but not impossible, so far anyway.
Judgement is definitely something different for me but I'm digging it for sure, it's quite relaxing to play as well.
GT 7 continues to be a lot of fun, albeit in relatively short bursts.
Have a good one, folks.
