@Deityjester Stealth is miles better than the first and it’s not nearly as janky. It’s much more modernized, smoother, and better QOL changes. I’ve played both and would rather play Payday 3 than 2 easily.
It’s a great game. Honestly had so many improvements over the second. Tech issues aside, I don’t know why people hate it so much. It’s like they expected it to launch with PD2 levels of content.
The game that’s giving away the season pass isn’t going to throw itself in front of a train? Wow, the train still might hit it mind you, but they won’t be as expidited.
@Dodoo I wish Lego games as they are would die. Lego game Susie’s to be different and interesting, then every single Lego game had to be a copy of Lego Star Wars and Lego games creativity have completely died eve since. The formula ran out is Steam for me with Lego Batman. A great run of three games, but it needed to stop there.
A companion dispute with no ability to pick a side was resolved by saying “hey, look you two, you could talk about plants instead and you’ll both be happy”. This isn’t Dragon Age, it stole the name and used it to try and get money because it would have failed completely otherwise.
Lies? You mana like when the you double down on Yasuke being a historical Samurai then backed out and said “Actually he really may not have been a Samurai”?
Yeah, let's not. This isn't a good idea, and MS needs to push the publishers they bought onto PS (horrible idea to buy them and it's already failing evidenced by us getting our games back), and then actually invest in some management that knows up from down, then have them make their own portfolio of great games.
I just redeemed for $10 once, but it says something went wrong when I try to redeem it again. I have almost enough points for $40, so figured I should get $20 now before anything expires or goes wrong.
@Bionic-Spencer To be frank, the game wasn’t is an amazing state at launch. The need that broke the camel’s back was the flamethrower, it wasn’t that great to start with. It was buffed because it’s a live-service game. We just had another strong weapon and didn’t notice at first because we were still figuring out all the weapons. The launch day game simply didn’t have anything “taken away”. There’s definitely tinted glasses for looking at it though.
I think you bring up a good point about some games though.
@DennisReynolds Or maybe dumb parents (only dumb ones) should not be allowed and big companies shouldn’t be able to patent basic ideas and stifle the rest of the industry for their own gain.
@PuppetMaster I’m not surprised the criticism want allowed. Some of the basic and obvious criticism of the game isn’t even allowed here because it’s considered “unpolite” nowadays. I can only imagine how much wasn’t allowed in Sony itself.
This should be illegal. i actually played Minecraft VR recently and don’t want it removed. It needs a legacy mode. You can’t just remove it. I get it, new Minecraft doesn’t work. Okay, let me play old Minecraft.
128 players wasn’t the problem, maps that made it feel like there was a lot less players than 64 player matches in previous games were the problem. Not being Battlefield was the problem. I’d love to see 128 players again done in a Battlefield game.
Okay, I think saying it's just $700 is an understatement when there's no disc drive or stand. It's a $810 console with nickel and diming customers. I was considering $700, but only $700. When it was more I was out quickly.
@FanCFeast The only people who know about/remember Borderlands are people who are skeptical of video game movies and will apply scrutiny. No who would just go see it like some people will see Minecraft on name alone because it's famous.
Payday 3 is good and much improved from Payday 2, which whole fun, is so janky and 3 is a great improvement to it. It’s gotten some really good DLC too. The fan base after a rocky launch almost wants it to fail out of misplaced spite I feel like.
@donv2135 I was honestly thinking about before I realized those details. The PS5 has a strong resell value still so it would only have been a few hundred dollars.
@LogicStrikesAgain The problem isn’t a high price, the problem is nickel and diming me for basic features with a high price. It’d be better to make it $750 and include the entire package than try to make a profit off of them,
Screw this. $700 without a disc drive?! Heck no. I’m out. I was thinking about it And the stand!? This is insane. Nickel and diming. I went from considering this to “I hope this fails like Concord”.
Of course they’re out of touch. The characters were intentionally ugly, someone wanted to make ugly things seems cool and was allowed to push that in a 200M project. The audience was suppers to like Concord despite being spat on.
This will hopefully be a slap of reality for Sony that these things are dangerous. I’m genuinely glad Concord is such a failure because Sony needed this message on many levels.
Let’s be real, some of those character designs are downright ugly on purpose. There’s a difference between not being DoA and trying to make your game intentionally ugly and then pretend it’s still cool.
@ShogunRok How many normal fights are there between bosses? I actually find the lack of exploration kind of refreshing in favor of being straight to the point.
This looks cool. I’m hoping it’s easy to join a house/guild and fight in battles that way. Let the really active players guide it more and let casuals be the grunts.
@RBMango Yeah, they know their community can act this way, so hyping flames and then nerfing them just is just makes me want to ask “What did you think was gonna happen?” It’s not even realistic either, it’s less realistic to a a flamethrower now. If it was realistic they’d buff the range of the flamethrower instead of this rework lol.
But yeah I think that would be a great convo to have. They recently put up a feedback form and I expressed my feelings, including that the flamethrower needed a nerf, but not a giant one. I also mentioned how the timing was tone deaf.

@Medic_alert They’re are also old at this point. People don’t think about PS3 games a lot, but a rerelease can drum up that interest again.

@LavenderShroud Nintendo shouldn't be able to patent anything that they are suing for here is the thing. Palworld is basically a parody of Pokemon.

I better get my money.
Re: PS5, PS4 Fans Are Worried Cash Rewards Have Been Removed from PS Stars
It’s 4% back, I think that’s pretty decent TBH. It’s the non-purchase awards that suck.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Collector's Edition Cheaper After Its Season Pass Cancellation
This game's sales are obviously shaping up to be a disaster. Ubisoft is trying so hard to get people to buy it. Keep it a disaster.
Re: Like It or Not, This Is Why PS5 Pro Doesn't Have a Disc Drive

Re: New PSVR2 Games Release Dates in 2024
@get2sammyb This article is wrong, Hitman PSVR2 is set to come out in December, and that's a huge PSVR2 release, biggest of the year really.
Re: PS5 Horror A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead Will Force You to Play in Silence if You Turn on Your Microphone
I think it’s a great idea. VR should do this more too.
It adds immersion and makes you be in-character more.

Re: Wizard of Mod Arrives in Girthy Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7 on PS5
Wow, the evil ending is still… awful and a lazy piece of crap.
This took a year? For what? To add almost nothing?
The fact that they think this is a fix and we should accept it as such is frankly insulting.
Re: Bickering Begins Over PS5 Pro's Inability to Sell Out
@zupertramp Absolutely, same with the disc drive. The pro succeeding while nickel and diming is bad for us all. Things don’t happen in a vacuum.

Re: PS5 Pro Shows Real Promise in First Expert Analysis

Re: Feature: PS5 Pro's Been Clowned on By the Entire Internet, and the Memes Will Make You Laugh
@EfYI For me it wasn't even the $700, it was the profiteering off the disc drive and vertical stand.
Re: Feature: PS5 Pro's Been Clowned on By the Entire Internet, and the Memes Will Make You Laugh
Deserved with no disc drive and no vertical stand.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth 'Hugely Improved' on PS5 Pro, a 'Night and Day' Difference

Re: Talking Point: Is PS5 Pro Way Too Expensive?
It’s not that $700 is necessarily too much, but $700 without a disc drive or stand is far too much.
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5 Pro

Re: Baldur's Gate 3's Huge Patch 7 Is Out This Week on PC, PS5 Has to Wait 'A Little Longer'
I’m looking forward to it. An ending to my game is finally getting patched in after a year of having a joke of a 40 second stand in cutscene instead.
Re: PS5, PC FPS Concord's Poor Player Numbers Have Predictably Gone Viral
Let’s be real, some of those character designs are downright ugly on purpose.
There’s a difference between not being DoA and trying to make your game intentionally ugly and then pretend it’s still cool.
