Re: Cash Rewards Still Unavailable for Millions in PS5, PS4 Rewards Scheme PS Stars

Elodin

Just to clarify the way you state cash rewards sounds inaccurate. Cash rewards implies that cash can be given and spent freely by the account owner anywhere. To be more accurate it would be better to state store credit as a reward, as this implies that the credit earned can only be spent on the stores website vs anywhere. When I first read the article, I thought I have never been given the option for cash rewards, but then noticed you meant store credit.

Re: Video: 2025 Is Shaping Up to Be PS5's Best Year Yet

Elodin

Wow! So many great games. Im Sure a few will push into 2026, but still a great amount. I'd pay full price a third of these, a small sale on most and a few id play for free. Only couple I won't play are the group games as I mainly play solo or with randoms if groups.

Re: Fans Appear to Be Coming Around to PS5 Pro

Elodin

The poll seems about right, being a Playstation fan website I can see polls being a bit lower for buying one with the avg. Crowd.
I won't be buying one. Ps5 is suiting my needs. I think I'm good until mid ps6 cycle as long as games keep coming for base ps5.

Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?

Elodin

Too expense for what I want. The main reason I jumped so quickly to ps5 was for loading times. I have that and while impressive specs, something I won't upgrade too until the ps6...unless GTA 6 runs like crap on base ps5 then I might consider the ps5 pro my ps6.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for September 2024 Announced

Excited to play MLB. I'm terrible at these games, but still enjoy it. No matter what view I choose for the batting view I still can't read the pitch well enough. I see if I can take my Brewers to the lead in the division like they are now.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Reveals Utterly Ridiculous Player Stats for One Year Anniversary

Doing a 3rd playthrough at the moment. I'm going with a Dwarf monk named Kwai-Chang Caine, seeking to find balance in the area. Although he is having trouble being smitten with Laezel. Also in my group is Shadowheart switched to Life Cleric and currently Gale, but may go Halsen as I've used Gale everytime. Waiting for the new patch to go Dark urge for my 4th.

Re: Sample Rise of the Ronin in New PS5 Demo Available Now

Elodin

I'm having a great time with this game. I'm currently in the middle of it I believe. I really like role playing the wandering ronin in my head. I rarely go to a main story mission unless I stumble across one. Being as easy as it is and the fun wandering make it a great chill game for me. Glad others are at least able to try it and see if they like it.

Re: 13 More PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Are Available to Download Now

@vikramsingh if you have played pen and paper d&d games it helps. If not the learning curve is higher. The simplest way is to watch beginner guides on YouTube. That way you will avoid pitfalls or wondering why something doesn't work. The nice thing is you can set many variables to easy in difficulty settings. That way as you slowly learn the systems and can increase the difficulty as you get more comfortable with the systems. I recommend playing turn based instead of live action with pause. It gives you time to see what is happening and how best to use all the magic/items at your disposal. I recommend the angel mythic path for your first playthough as it seems the story was most meant for that choice. Once again youtube guides can help you there. A big difference between pathfinder wotr and bg3 is bg3 stops leveling. Pathfinder you can get into god like powers, especially with the mythic paths. It is all part of the story. It makes sense in game as your taking on strong demons.
There is also 2 parts to the game. The large overview map where you have battles vs demons with armies to unlock paths and then just your main group which is more traditional. I recommend having auto for your play through for the large army battles. It keeps it simple and the ai does a decent enough job. Hopes some of this helps feel free to ask for more specifics.

Re: George R.R. Martin Appears to Tease Elden Ring Adaptation for Film, TV

Elodin

It could be done well, just not from the Elden Ring game protagonist. The show could start from so many places. Before the breaking would be best. Or even slightly after, with all the factions fighting for the shards power and slowly being corrupted.
To others point I would rather have a conclusion to Game of Thrones. Martin and Rothfuss enjoy watching us all squirm for a conclusion to their books.
