Re: Hogwarts Legacy, PS5's Spellbinding Harry Potter Spin-Off, Massively Exceeded Sales Expectations

@LifeGirl cancel culture is always a loud minority and always people who don't buy things anyway.

I don't know how much of this success is due to the funny boycott giving the game free advertising and how much is due to HP fans loving the game and spreading the good word. I'm not a HP fan and from what I played I think it's a dreamy game for them. I'd like a new LOTR game that does it for us.

First game I loved. Was really into Aloy. Second game it was pretty evident that her personality isn't so nice (were they trying too hard with the strong woman trope?). I don't think the story ever reached the first's either. They didn't do enough with Sylens and now with Lance gone it's too late.

Now we are left with strong confrontational sassy Aloy and her new girlfriend who may be the same. I think the only thing that would draw me in is a rumoured working Horus.

Re: ARK: Survival Evolved to Ascend to PS5 in August, No Upgrade Path for Existing Owners

I've played this game for years and I'm not surprised. They keep trying to release new paid content yet won't fix bugs that have existed for years. They don't actually care about the game, just trying to make money.

They already released a PS5 upgrade patch which unsurprisingly didn't have everything. A notable absence is the ability to alter the tether limit between host and joinee when the PS5 is hosting a multiplayer session. Something that already exists on the PC version and once did on PS4 before they randomly removed it.
