Since the new tiers started, I've only ever been able to get a discount on upgrading from Extra to Premium. So this year i let my sub lapse and then got a 3 month sub, and let it expire again so i could take advanage of the Days of Play sale for new memebers. Probably shouldn't have to do all that just to extend my sub at the descounted price. I understand they don't won't people stacking for a few years at a time, but surely they should give existing memebers more options.
I thought it was decent myself, I thought the way it handled grief in the story and the layout of the land sets it out from other similar games. I even got the platinum, which is rare for me.
Some of the backlash this game received was truly baffling. The trolls were certainly on form and and really pathetic.
Most likely won't go back to this as already completed it. Not played the dlc, so maybe. But yet to play Burning Shores and would rather give that a go instead.
I dowloaded the trial last night. I enjoyed the first game, but did not like the 2nd game at all. Cool that they are supporting the game with free stuff.
I played this on my tablet last year, and quickly became addicted to it. It is one of those games that when I show it to people or explain it them, they turn their noses up at it.
I've yet to play this, but is top of my list when I next play one of these games. As I've just finished Shadow of the Erdtree, it is going to be awhile.
Is there supposed to be an expansion released, or is that not happening anymore?
Some of the worst bosses in the series and some questionable geography decisions, but I still enjoyed it despite it's flaws. Definitely my least favourite of the FromSoftware games I've played. The DLC is so good though.
I skipped this at the time, as I was a bit bored of series by then and felt like I had outgrown them. If a PS5 version become available it would be up for giving it a go. But would prefer they did IX first, as that one I didn't play either.
Maybe it gets way more difficult later, but I've not found it any different to the main game so far. Some enemies can destroy me, others have been no problem.
@somnambulance I'm level 188, so hopefully should be OK. Normal enemies I'm managing OK with, but there are 3 Ulcerated Tree Spirits all bunched together in the Ashen Capital who are destroying me lol. I've got the item though, so don't really need to face em again. Those little albino dudes outside Mogh's place are good for farming.
I would prefer a Lego Horizon game to a remaster of the first game, that has also been rumoured. I suppose Sony would like a Horizon video game of some sort to coincide with the upcoming TV show.

@rusty82 Thank you for the recommendation, I will definitely check it out.
Re: 13 PS5, PS4 Games Set to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
@Aelynn I will give it a go after I've finished with Dead Island 2. Will be nice palate cleanser and something a bit different.

Re: Huge List of 18 Major Games to Leave PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Month
Only Chorus from there for me. I got caught out with Gotham Knights leaving, and I'm really close to finishing it. Which is annoying. 😕

Re: Silent Hill 2 (PS5) - The Horror Great Remains So in This Excellent Remake
Oh wow, was not expecting this to review so well. The only Bloober Team game I've played is Observer: System Redux, which i really enjoyed.
This does follow the current trend of the good news/bad news yo-yo Playstation is having. Whatever comes next is is going to be awful lol.

Re: Don't Worry, Tales of Graces f Remastered Is 60FPS on PS5, PS4
Something to keep the FPS whiners at bay. I'm sure they will find something else to whinge about, like a blade of grass mixing a pixel.

Is there supposed to be an expansion released, or is that not happening anymore?

Re: Random: Divisive Dark Souls 2 Is Seeing a Resurgence and Some Revisionist History
Some of the worst bosses in the series and some questionable geography decisions, but I still enjoyed it despite it's flaws. Definitely my least favourite of the FromSoftware games I've played. The DLC is so good though.

@Th3solution Me too, I thought your super power had come into play again and had bought them!
Re: Beloved, Sekiro-Inspired Action Platformer Nine Sols Rated for PS5, PS4 Release
Fighting Cowboy played and i think rated it, so that has certainly sparked my interest in the game.
Re: Poll: Is the Astro Bot PS5 Controller the Best DualSense Yet?
I like the God of War one the best. But I try not to spend crazy amounts of money for console peripherals.
Re: Randy Pitchford Says Fans Will Be 'Very, Very Happy' with Next Borderlands Game
After completing the third gane, I'm kinda burnt out on the series. Will most likely give this one a miss.
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Boasts Ubisoft's Biggest Ever Marketing Budget, Strong Launch Expected

Re: 'PlayStation's Blessed with Marketing Budgets We're Not Able to Enjoy,' Xbox Bigwig Bemoans
@DETfaninATL Thanks man!
Yeah they are my faves too. Saw it was 30 years since the release of Jilted Generation... which makes me feel reeeeeealy old!

Re: 13 New Games Land on PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
@Th3solution Lies of P or Wild Hearts please! Or though I do think that the former game will come over when ever the gamepass deal for it ends
Re: 13 New Games Land on PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
@Th3solution I immediately thought of you buying Crisis Core not long ago when I saw it was being added! 😂
Re: Lore Tome Grace Given: The Mythology of Elden Ring Looks Absolutely Stunning
I've got a few of the design works books for their games, which are really really good. This looks lush, but out of my price range unfortunately.

Re: Elden Ring Dataminer Reveals True Face of Shadow of the Erdtree NPCs
Zullie's vids are usually a good watch, although these particular ones are probably my least favourite.
Also recommend CarbotAnimations. Those always makes me chuckle.
Re: Broken, Battered Elden Ring Players Review Bomb Shadow of the Erdtree for Being Too Hard
Maybe it gets way more difficult later, but I've not found it any different to the main game so far. Some enemies can destroy me, others have been no problem.
Re: Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Release Times: When Can You Start Playing the Expansion?
@somnambulance I'm level 188, so hopefully should be OK. Normal enemies I'm managing OK with, but there are 3 Ulcerated Tree Spirits all bunched together in the Ashen Capital who are destroying me lol. I've got the item though, so don't really need to face em again. Those little albino dudes outside Mogh's place are good for farming.
Re: Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Release Times: When Can You Start Playing the Expansion?
@Silenos You are good to go, as I've heard the recommended level is at least 150.
Re: Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Release Times: When Can You Start Playing the Expansion?
I'm hoping PS Stars will be back up so I can redeem my points for some store credit to use against this, but it is not looking that good.

Really enjoyed the first game. I did find it a bit depressing to play though l
