JJ2

Ha the more I think of it the less I like it tbh.
The characters are all subtlety and their attitudes convey a lot. I can already feel this Joel will be more pathetic and not inspire respect. I dread to see the opening scenes with Sarah.

@thefourfoldroot1
I mean it’s not hard to understand being passionate and wanting what you really like ASAP
Some games I can wait and some I can’t. It’s human.
If the price is an issue there’s a moderate middle ground depending of course.

@PoeticJustice
Exactly!
The characters being likeable and relatable was key. Also the enjoyable story making sense and calling for intelligent discussion.
I think any father could relate to Joel in the original.
Instead in part 2 I think they got presumptuous in wanting you to hate these characters and then reflect on your hatred in some mind bending teaching experience from what I gather. Then complain about gamers hate in denial (of what they what they were aiming for in the first place).

@twitchtvpat
Yeah I just need a good ambitious (large scale) mp tps and I feel they might deliver on this.
I don’t play fps because I can’t stand first person view only.

It looks fantastic. Really. I’m sorry to be that guy but the original art style is better though. Especially Joel looks more like any (less subtle) angry guy now, In two words less likeable.

Best part of the show. Looks like gunplay will feel great too. Probably day 1

All sounds really exciting.
It was announced way too early with no info though.
I’ll take this as the real announcement I guess.

@OrtadragoonX
Respectfully disagree. Joel was great in the original.
Already there was too much unjustified hate for the character. (I believe they picked up on it and found a good idea if he became a villain) With what they made of him in part 2 I fear indeed they’ll make him a horrible character. Joel was as in the original, one of the best iconic PS character and an absolute badass regarding gameplay.
They’ll also probably make those fanatic fireflies and their mengele look like heros.
And they ll go full on with the ridiculous take of Ellie being a chosen one whereas the original let room for rational explanation.

A pc port would make sense but a remake taking away from the original story is yike from me 🧐

@NEStalgia
Yea right. A broken clock can be right and Yadi yada.
They just need to calm down with rumours right and left and wait for official announcement.(which is very soon I think)
Literally a few hours before there was an article on IGN saying ‘confirmed’ this September
https://in.ign.com/god-of-war-ragnarok/172624/news/god-of-war-ragnarok-playstation-store-listing-almost-confirms-a-september-release

‘It's all been very quiet since,..,’
Your ‘forgetting’ the accessibility video

Edit
I think gamereactor isn’t very reliable. They often post ‘news’ sometimes weeks after everyone.

Really nice. There’s a disc edition just announced too. I hope the price is right.

English version would be nice.
I appreciate mention of Detroit because it was a superb game. Very underrated because of naive or woke critics who didn’t understand much of the story. Even push review didn’t know the difference between android and cyborg and thought androids similar faces were a bad thing when the whole point was appearance doesn’t matter 🙄.

I’d bet it’s revealed at Geoff event with GOWR trailer too
Don’t care about console warriors bragging rights 😅

With all due respect.
I don’t miss it at all. It’s typical reporters saying it was great but failing to report on the full show floor when it was there. Only reporting on pre E3 conferences and disregarding important info because they were a few minutes before the conference.
Oh yeah I get it was very cool to get all those pointless clickbaits about ‘who is going to win E3’ ‘Who won E3?’ ‘Why did Sony failed to win E3?’ Etc etc. (Jesus I’m so glad the press were forced to stop that crap) pretending it was only about the conference smoke and mirror and ‘pacing’ circus.
plus marathon sleepless nights to keep up were awful.
(Of course nostalgia makes things seem better than they were but it wasn’t that great really. Too much fluff in so little time. It would factually have been better if each publisher had their event spread)

@Toypop
Then you should be relieved they didn’t go on rushing the rumoured cross gen multiplayer ‘sequel’ using everything they couldn’t ship in the first game.

They regularly have livestreams. This sarcastic article is being silly in an unfunny way. A bit like Trump playing dumb thinking he’s very clever but is actually really dumb.

@Flaming_Kaiser
Your right a lot of people on this site are NEVER happy. However I don’t blame them. I even don’t blame any subscription/console/platform warriors. It’s cool if people feel better expressing whatever they want. Im all for freedom of expression.
I’d blame Push for not seeing the forest for the tree and being content with their usual negativity about everything PS. This site is pushing people to be negative without reason and gaming is a rare place people in the world can unit in entertainment and have fun together in these sad times.
Most PS gamers are still on PS4 and don’t visit this site. (And don’t sub to rental service). It’s a recurrent issue with gaming reporting focusing on a loud minority because that’s where they get their clicks from.

Let me get this stray so Push was ‘pushing’ people to be unhappy because of the rental subscription that you call ‘higher tier’ whereas this is the usual base ps+ that millions of PS4 gamers have. (As opposed to the other services)
Talk about being narrow minded. It’s cool that all PS4 gamers get GOW to KEEP in their library forever. And I’m %100 sure the majority of gamers couldn’t care less about the ‘higher tier’ rental services.

Edit
Yeah No. A push poll doesn’t mean much.

‘It’s important to remember that….’
Push that’s a phrase you keep using but need to stop repeating and apply to yourself instead because you often get it wrong and always fail to see what’s important.

‘Interesting!’ Typical troll phrase.
Push surfing on pointless negativity. I remember when the negative spin was to have a tantrum because no AAA in PS+. What a surprise. 😎
Oh go on mob.
🙄

I predict 3rd party and VR announcements.
👀👀👀

Some games might be exclusive and some might not be.
I also predict a riot.

COD really would be a great way to push VR to take off.

@AdamNovice
There’s also Bungie new IP that strangely Push doesn’t want to acknowledge. Haven studio is making 2 or 3 games projects 1 of which is GaaS. Deviation new IP I suspect is Sony IP. And a few others but I think there’s some ‘platform’ war fud and mind game going on with the negativity. I don’t believe everyone is as silly as to think Sony will stop doing SP story driven games. Heck they even insisted that’s their strength and doubling down on new IPs.

@dark_knightmare2
Ha good to hear. Yes I don’t know why. I still have the cool comic book that was with SE3 launch. Really nice to keep.

Nice. I’ll probably get a used copy of SE5 at some point. I liked 3 but really couldn’t get into 4. Not sure why.

I don’t get ‘ It’s worth remembering’. That Bungie remains ‘independent’ doesn’t change the fact that it’s going to be Sony $. Their games are part of the live service games they mentioned, aren’t they?

I guess people gonna be angry when they show COD. Haha
AARRGG. 😅
Nah Its going to be a cool SoP I say 👍🏻
And I can watch this one

GOW might be cool. I’ll check it out.
I mean I hope it isn’t dad and boy relationship ‘story’.

@torne
It’s alright. I feel as if Push is an Elden Ring catacomb sometimes.
😅☠️👽👹 happy gaming 😅
Oh I’d like an update on project eve and Stray. I enjoyed those September events.

It’s actually more than I expected. That means there’s going to be another State of Play about GOWR and then a bigger show in September.

@WadeIsInsane
Indeed. Misinforming clickbaits butchering the quotes and taking them out of context.
Even Cerny said that phrase a few times before.

@lolwhatno
Nice. It’s a great option for gamers and not talked about enough. Ideally every game should give the choice.

@WadeIsInsane
There was no ‘ plan on stopping first party cross-gen games in 2020’.
It’s just a ridiculous lie constructed out of misinforming clickbaits or console war fud.

@torne
I agree with you but there’s no point trying to reason with the internet. It’s like when people were complaining about indies at the beginning of PS4 gen or about VR games.
People are often just expressing an emotional state with no real logic.

What I’m interested to know is how it plays. I really like the way you can easily switch from third person to first person view while aiming and back which makes for an enjoyable gunplay / gameplay and a pro consumer option that should be more common in most games.
FPS only games feel awful to me. 🤢

@KidBoruto
Yes. I mean I don’t see why a September event would be a problem. The way I see it is State of Play is for games coming very soon like Stray and GOWR
PS event like future of gaming is more for games starting next year and beyond so whether it’s shows in June, July, August or September doesn’t really matter, does it?

Overall PlayStation looks strong, healthy and with a bright future unlike what doom and gloom reporting would have you believe. 🧐

A lot of good news.
I wish push was more positive but It’s like asking the impossible.

September. 👌
State of Play in June.
👀

The reality is often very different than the overblown internet drama these days.

@get2sammyb
I don’t know why you don’t consider Bungie and the new studios acquisitions in the equation. It makes sense 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Toypop
There’s been no ‘u-turned on “generations”’ 🙄
It’s a false narrative.

But but. I thought we should listen to what Intel is saying instead? 🤔😅

Sony acquired a few studios making multiplatform games. Push needs to evolve with the perspective here. 🙄
It’s not just about ‘ports’.
No doubt Bungie (and other new acquisitions) is going to be huge $ on pc.

@WallyWest
Morning man. Not really at you there and just chilling.
I think what people go on about resolution these days is misleading though because they talk about (dynamic) resolution scaling. I feel resolution scaling on Xbox has been less performant than on PS (like sluggish, not aggressive enough ) and that’s one reason PS5 has had consistently better framerate but slightly less resolution in a few cases. So a better resolution average isn't always a good thing.
In any case it’s clear a console isn’t about tflop but a complex puzzle where all the pieces come together. Even Spencer, the tflop hype master, admitted so when the xb1x was revealed. Even more so this generation with the PS5.
I’m not an expert and not a tech guy at all. Just using common sense and information here.

@WallyWest
Please don’t go on again with the teraflop non sense. We’ve had the internet experts go on about it since 2019 and explain to Cerny how it’s done and all. Haha
🙄
😅

Ms might do it just to have more cool names 🤔

@NEStalgia
Still with your fantasy I see. 😅
Well we could talk about ‘Kennedy vs USSR’ (which I already disagree on the therm you put on many levels) and what came from that period of time with strong personalitieS on both sides actually. I’m sure we have different opinions but really have not the time and not the place to do so 😂
Silly analogies are bad ideas and dont get anywhere most of the time.
