Re: Don't Nod Staff to Strike in Paris, Workers Demand Redundancy Plan Be Abandoned

I hope the workers are able to meet their goals. Don't Nod is a, relatively speaking, small team, so I am more prone to believe they would be in crisis after mismanagement than, say, big companies like Microsoft. Still this industry lays off people like I throw away used napkins, that has to change.

Last thing: the cover image is from the latest Life is Strange game, which I'm pretty sure was not made by Don't Nod. I believe the IP now belongs to Square Enix. You should consider changing it, I think. Might cause confusion.

I just finished the Metaphor Re: Fantazio Prologue Demo, clocking in almost 8 hours. What a game. This past week I also got the platinum for Vampire Survivors, and I'm now close to getting 100% completion on that game, I just need to finish some adventures. I've also started The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and aside from the framerate issues, it's being very fun and whimsical. Finally, I'm finishing Secret Agent Clank over on PS5.

Good gaming, everyone!

I'm playing a lot of PlayStation titles, so I'll comment here this week instead of in Nintendo Life as usual.

I'm playing through Daxter, Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier and Final Fantasy VII Remake on the PS5. I'm playing through LocoRoco Remastered and Far Cry 3 on the PS4. I've recently finished watching the Fallout series with my partner and we're going through a bit of a fever, so we're both playing Fallout Shelter on the iPad and I've started Fallout 3 on the Deck.

Re: Concord Is Sony's Answer to Overwatch, Launches August, Beta Test in July

The reveal cinematic was incredible. It had such a nice vibe that made it look like Guardians of the Galaxy, which is perhaps the Marvel IP that I like the most. And then... it's the most uninteresting game following on from that. Who needed another hero shooter? To hell with these live service games. As expected, turning out to be completely underwhelming.

Re: The Next Naughty Dog Game Its 'Most Thrilling Yet', Says Neil Druckmann

@AKAslickdaddy40 I agree, I think the story is more mature than a lot of people were ready for. I think there definitely is a correlation between being young and immature, but sadly I see also a lot of older people being so childish that I've lost hope of some people maturing much as they grow up. Having said that, on the inclusivity side of things, I don't think age plays that big of a role. I think we saw similar kind of reactions to some of the more extreme reactions to one of the main characters in the new AC being black instead of Japanese.
