Cool. Gonnma give Greedfall a go since I'm looking for a rpg to take the place of cyberpunk

@TheArt well it sold really well and a lot of people were happy with it so I would say it wasn't a bad move. Maybe they shouldve discontinued it a little earlier but perhaps they didnt expect the amount of day one sales that the PS5 had. I think corona meant a lot of people were sitting at home bored out of their minds so sales were very good.

@TheArt it was never supposed to be necessary, just an option for those that wanted to.

Deleted it off my harddrive so I wouldnt be tempted to play it anyway. Was going to wait at least untill the february patch but the way things are looking this will be at least a year before they fix the technical issues AND the balancing and cut content etc. Bummer.

@TechaNinja isnt that from Mars Attacks! ?

@Wazeddie22 dying light 2! For the love of god what happened to this game

@ObserverGamez yeah its funny how the other characters were a lot more interesting than the main character. I liked Juna as well and I thought Jin acted like a right a****** to her, convincing her to stay all the time. "Promise me to keep fighting". Oh come on! Just let her go allready lol.

I refuse to play games where I have tockill the same enemies again and again before a bossfight.
Also I dont have a PS5....

I make a point of only completing games before I buy new ones so I never have a huge backlog although I offcourse have a wishlist of games I want to play. This keeps it more manageable. Liveservice games however you can't ever complete so they don't appeal to me for that reason. I think you should tell yourself to only commit to 1 or 2 at the most live service games if you're into them.

@KevinDS88 hey thanks for the tip. Didnt know about desperados. Its not quite the same as RB6 but I really enjoyed shadow tactics as well so I put this on my wishlist

I wish we would go back to the format of the original RB6 games, those were some of the best games I have ever played. The planning and tactical skills required were really pushing my skills as a 12 year old but I can honestly say they shaped me as a person. Having to make decisions whether to continue the campaign when you end a mission with 2 dead and a couple wounded, putting you in a bad position for upcoming missions. So many choices to make.
Not to mention the awesome feeling when you execute your plan perfectly.

Unfortunately to me the franchise doesn't exist anymore. I can never see myself playing this counterstrike look a like. Especially after articles like this.

@ObserverGamez I agree its a great game but personally I found a few faults. Jin was too dry for my opinion. Allways this sober dude, no laughing. The ending did give me goosebumps though.

And the side quests were very bland. Person in distress needs help, go kill a handfull of enemies, receive charm you allready have a dozen duplicates of. The other open world collectibles like fox dens etc were a dime a dozen as well. You did one you did them all. So while the world was gorgeous it didnt push me to explore it.

Ill stop complaining now, like I said its still a great game and I'm glad you enjoyed it

Didnt play it but will pick it up later when theres a good sale. For a remake I think the price is a bit high.

@carlos82 completely agree with you. GoT is objectively a good game but the open world fluff they couldve done without. My main gripe were the lacklustre side quests. And the infinite thunderstorm because apparently I didnt play as it was supposed to really bothered me as well.

Doom Eternal I had high hopes for but imo it suffered from 'sequel syndrome' and went too far over the top.

TLOU2 could do without the woke characters that felt forced in, especially in a post apocalyptic world. But I think especially gameplay wise it was a big leap forward from TLOU1. And the first half was one of my favourite gaming moments of this generation. The 2nd half took me a while to get into but eventually grew on me. However the game as a whole outstayed it's welcome a bit in the final act (imo).

@Ashbo anything is possible at this stage lol

Score pending? The situation is pretty clear right now. You can't possibly recommend the game on Playstation so it should not be higher than a 5 at most, despite it's potential.

Cyberpunk at half price? XD

@Jimmer-jammer same here. Had one crash in about 5-6 hours of play. Im not playing for many hours on end though. I try to hold myself in and wait for more patches but it's hard since we just entered another lockdown..

@Mpquikster there totally is. This will very much hurt pre orders for their next game

@carlos82 exactly this, thank you.

@jmac1686 What is the problem with these XP boosters you ask? Because they will make the game intentionally grindy just to sell XP boosters, rather than just giving you the option to progress at your own pace.

Take Ghost of Tsushima for example, there are no level or 'gold' requirements to advance the story. If you just want to play the story and skip all side content you can do so without paying a dime. As it should be...

Just look at Far Cry New Dawn or Ghost Recon Breakpoint (not incidentally both recent Ubisoft games). Suddenly they implemented a leveling system for weapons when its predecessors didnt. Why do you reckon that is? Do they really think it will 'improve' the gameplay for you? Or is it there so they can sell XP boosters and time savers?

@sanderson72 yeah so if you really must I think you can play now but apparently besides the performance it has glitches and crashes as well. Didnt encounter them myself but I suppose its best to wait at least a little while before buying.

@sanderson72 took a while before my copy arrived and I had time to play. But played a few hours now and in my opinon the performance is pretty decent. I have a pro with an SSD and play on a 1080P 40inch screen without HDR. Maybe if you have a 60" 4K screen it doens't look as good as one would expect.

Loading times and controller response are fine. Some outdoor areas can be a bit rough and especially when driving your car through these areas the framerate can drop a bit.

I haven't had any hard crashes and major bugs, so all in all on PS Pro I'm confident that they can fix these issues with a couple of patches. I'm going to wait untill the february patch releases and try again I think.

@Skywalker1080p yeah same here. playing on ps pro and performance is decent enough in my opinion but I just played through the prologue. I'll deinstall and wait at least untill the february patch to give it another go.

My preorder copy hasnt arrived yet. Will see for myself how well it runs but its likely I'll wait a few months for some patches and theres a slim chance I might even wait untill I get a ps5 after a year or so.

Looks fun. Allways looking for games to play with my gf but she's quite picky. She tried life is strange last week but she hated it. Apparently she doesnt have the patience for story driven games XD this seems to have plenty of action though

Awesome. I played all ME games and enjoyed all of them including 3 and Andromeda. The combat in Andromeda carried allmost the whole game for me, so if they keep the combat intact and improve on the story and quests it can only get better

@sanderson72 hopefully I'll find out today

Cool. I have a pro with SSD. I think it'll be fine. I'm more.interested in the story and dialogue anyway. The shooting and driving isnt something I expect too much of

@ApostateMage you could join your own party and it will mute all other chat audio.

@Flaming_Kaiser I allways look at average user scores (5, 6 or 7 out of 10) because they tend to weigh in the pro's and the con's. a 10/10 or 1/10 is usually just something like "best/worst game ever" with no arguments given. Same goes for all reviews btw, airbnb, restaurants etc.

@StonyKL well said, man

@Cycologist unfortunately I agree with you. At least GT Sport tried to do something new with the formula and while it never really hooked me I have to admit I had a couple of fantastic online races with randoms in it.

I'll probably get it eventually in a sale or something but it's definitely no longer a day one purchase for me.

Bummer. Was hoping this would be good

@SlyASpiE It allmost feels like you're not supposed to play this way, even though the whole plot revolves around it and you're constantly given new badass 'Ghost techniques'.

If I read that the thunderstorms are patched out I might give it a 2nd playthrough someday.

@wiiware yeah that thunderstorm is getting really tiresome. Just finished the game tonight but the last act I rushed through because of the constant thunderstorm.

Useless mechanic imo and very poorly communicated to the player. I feel like Im being punished for playing a certain way.

Other than that a great game

Im perfectly fine with the game being fairly small as long as there are loads of interesting characters, well written dialogue and different ways of apporaching quests. And that seems to be the case

@Justifier if anything they probably had too much money and time. But too little focus meant they squandered it

Helldivers was so satisfying. Especially when fighting the bugs, all the weapons felt very powerfull. Superfun game.

@djape spoiler much..?

I agree this practice is a lame money making scheme at the expense of genuine fans of the product. I also appreciate some people really badly want a PS5. But at the end of the day it's just a toy guys. Just wait a bit and stock will replenish.

@jess3a3 and that's released on the PS4 as well, although it's not clear how well/bad it will perform.

@Grimwood even an open world is still bound together by, hopefully, a decent story. But I agree the impact is not as big as a purely story driven game.

To be fair it was given to him, it's not like he went out of his way to obtain one just to sell it on for a profit. He doesn't like it enough to keep it so he sells it. And demand is high so the price is too.

Just spend close to 90 euros on a bunch of indie games last month and I preordered Cyberpunk so Im keeping my wallet closed for at least a few months. Happy hunting for all you others.

@Medic_Alert Yeah but who the heck wants a Xbox

@naruball Nope. But it has a couple of very distinct advantages (and disadvantages ofcourse..). Maybe some day in the future it will actually work for the majority of people and instant game installs and updates will make our life objectively better for it

I like to keep as many games installed and up to date as possible because installing and updating a game can take up to a full day sometimes because of massive update files mostly. If they did something about that then maybe 650GB would be enough.

Remember that thing called Stadia, you can add infinite games to your library and launch them instantly. You have to admit that is pretty sweet.

The previous spider man just barely kept me entertained. Im just not much into superheroes and in open worlds so that was still better than I expected. I did enjoy the heck out of Batman Arkham Asylum back in the days. Man that game was good.

@deathaxe yeah to be honest that's the main reason right now why I wouldn't buy one. 600-somehting GB is just not enough to be practical. Funny how they introduced a 'multiple quick resume' option when you can barely fit 4 games on it

@Papasears man, I envy you if your local bars are still open nowadays
