Re: When Is EA Play Live 2021?

Heads up, you can watch the livestream in 4k for 2.99 extra. By purchasing the diamond livestream, you get an avatar and early viewing access to EaPlay 2022. Finally, for 9.99, you can access all EA trailers in 4k for the next year and receive an avatar and digital lanyard for digital EA keys that your avatar wears on their hip.

Re: Poll: Does Sony Need a Big PS5 Showcase This Summer?

I'm in the minority here I guess. They only need to show what is almost ready. I think it's pretty clear at this point that only Horizon and Deathloop can be shown at this point and I'm okay with that.

I'm hopeful that we'll get some GT7 info by end of year, but if it happens it happens. I do expect there to be a pretty big marketing push in September through November, but will more than likely be focus on what is already out or releasing at the end of year.

@PossibLeigh The gameplay may be tight, but I'm afraid the content will be light. That's what I mean about underdeveloped. Like they thought, hey let's focus on 5 hours of gameplay and just make them play it over and over. Don't spend much time on making it look next gen either. Those 5 hours (stretched to 15-20) may play well, but we should definitely expect that anyways, and we should expect a PS5 game to look and feel like a PS5 game. This just doesn't to me at all.

And hey, thanks for understanding opinions are that and not being offended. It's cool to see both sides.

@PossibLeigh
Sure, I don't care for the art direction and as I mentioned the graphics don't look PS5 at all. To me, this is an underdeveloped looking game that they are trying to hide behind thinly veiled play-the-same-thing over and over mechanics, just dripping you little upgrades that help you get past the next barrier after dying 10 times.

And yeah I played the first Dishonored and didn't really get into it. I actually remember I was super excited when it came out, but thought it was boring after spending some time with it. I did however like the feel of the game much more than this funky looking style they have going here.

@mrbone This is what people keep forgetting. The grass isn't greener on the other side. Sony actually makes more than 3 games a generation. Microsoft relies on 3rd party multiplatform games and indies to carry them. Not falling for it again.

Just need to program your mind to wait for sales even if it takes 6 to 12 months.

@Floki Sure but it goes both ways. Some people talk like they think he's the second coming of Tom Hanks. I think it's a product of him picking roles that are "cool" to the gamer crowd and less about his actual skill in acting. In my mind, dudes don't just start out as awesome actors from one job, they have to earn that praise. It's okay to be a fan though. All I said is I'm worried about it. Hopefully he/they will prove me wrong. I want it to be good despite my criticism.

I know a lot of people here love him for some reason. I haven't watched Narcos, so maybe that would convince me. It is just one show and one character though. Sometimes actors are good at only one thing. I'm still worried, hopefully he proves me wrong and WW84 was just a crap covered blip. It had a terrible Director so that could have had something to do with it.

@nessisonett I don't know man. He was pretty awful in Wonder Woman. The only role I thought he was good in was Game of Thrones, but that was a pretty straightforward role and he didn't have much time and character building. Mandalorian is a role lacking much emotion. He has not proved to me at all that he can act. WW84 was one of the worst performances I've seen in awhile.

Re: GreedFall PS5 Version Available to Download Now

The game was average but I spent quite a bit of time with it. I didn't like how there was basically the same layout of the buildings in every city. I liked the gameplay, and the loot system though, though could have used more variety. The story was mildly entertaining. I expect a lot from this team going forward, they show some promise.

I'll buy a used Xbox in a few years when they're cheap and all the Bethesda stuff is on GamePass (if they're not a buggy mess which they probably will be). Will spend a few months playing through them, then will sell the Xbox to someone else.

Right now, these games are all a ways off though. But yeah Microsoft won't really make any money from me except for a few months of gamepass piddles.
