@Rangers420 yeah thats exactly how i feel anout it. It started off so well too. I was on it every night until i got to the gold saucer, which i didnt like at all then after pushing through it i just cant be bothered.
Ive been playing alot of Ghost of Tsushima and GT7 lately. Ive got Rebirth that i wanted to get through before Stellar release. On chapter 10 but for some reason when i put it on now i really cant be arsed to play it so end up just putting something else on. Strange as i absolutely loved it to begin with. Helldivers now and again but i dont feel a need to constantly be playing it atm.
@Nakatomi_Uk no they carry ove. Ive been working towards the ยฃ20 for a few months now. Guessing they do fall off eventually but id imagine its 12 months atleast. May be wrong tho.
@Korgon kinda the same for me. My problem is the drab settings. I know that its supposed to be look like that for a reason but i much prefer the lush colours of something like a Skyrim or anything non post apocalyptic.
@Czar_Khastik i dont really know why to be honest. It was a long time ago that i played Fallout 3 on the xbox 360 and i just fely that 4 felt very similar but more shooty and i guess i got bored of it. If im completely honest im not a fan of the post apocalyptic settings in my games. The drab browns and oranges dont really do it for me. I much prefer the bright setting of a Skyrim or Witcher. I will give the show a go tho.
@J2theEzzo ive always thought MK11 is the superior Beat em up compared to 1. The combat was solid, good roster without cameos tacked on, fantastic customisation with regards to your characters etc and the krypt was pretty cool too.
@Northern_munkey problem is i seem to die more than i live in the Helldivers universe. Oh well, constant death is a small price to pay for democracy i suppose.
Now hand the franchise over to somone that can appreciate what made the origionals up until 4 good. This could be an absolute killer IP and the only MP shooter to actually attempt to challenge COD. When i was younger and in to FPS you were either a COD or BF fan. Now im neither.
@LifeGirl one thing that comes to mind, albeit a tiny part is Ghost of Tsushima when Jin soaks in the hot springs and it shows a full naked rear shot of his tight buns then when hes done he stands up and turns around and the scene cuts right before his pecker comes in to view from behind his thigh. I didnt hear a single uproar about it at all. Not that it bothers me, just a flipped take on an issue.
@The_Pixel_King "My biggest problem is as a 50yr old, I just donโt have the friends to game with"
There are plenty of people on here that would be more than happy to play Helldivers with you, myself included. Its even a fun game to play with randoms too and thats coming from someone that dislikes multiplayer games in general.
Good to see MK11 on there. Solid fighter imo that i put over 300 hours in to back in the day. I loved the character customisation options. Imo its the better MK game. Im sure Helldivers will creap back up and carry on spreading democracy soon.
Will be doing some helldivers over the weekend but i really must push on with Rebirth. On chapter 10 now so i dont believe theres too much more to do. Maybe some sniper elite 5 with a buddy too but the missions are really long.
Best golf game ever made imo. I even got the platinum and this is coming from someone that doesnt like sports games. Hopefully they will do a 2025 game as it doesnt look like a new one will come out this year.
After ive done some morning fishing and a little afternoon DIY i will be replaying the Stellar blade demo and i really need to get back on to Rebirth after dropping off half way through chapter 9. Ive got the new Planet Zoo and really been enjoying it but im at a point where i dont really know what im doing now. Im ok at completing objectives in the pre built parks (tutorial) but now ive got to start from scratch im all over the place ๐คฃ๐คฃ
@Shepherd_Tallon always welcome. They take 2 skill points each to unlock so very fast come the full game. I was impressed with the demo but the boss fight that unlocks after you beat the demo story section was tricky to beat. Very much looking forward to the full game tho.
@Shepherd_Tallon @Fishface45 there is a perk in the skill tree that allows for an easier perfect dodge and one for an easier perfect parry. Im guessing it extends the window of each button press. Dont sleep on these perks, especially the parry.
Completed the demo an hour ago and then the tricky liittle boss fight it gives you from the main menu. Loved it. First thing i did, like always was take a look in the settings menu. Auyo loot pick up went on instantly. Good to see lots of options and features for those that may need them tho.
Just for those that are worried by the parry/timing system that can be a little tricky there is a skill tree perk that can be unlocked very early on that makes perfect dodge easier and another to make perfect parry easier. The hardest part i found were reading if the bosses were going to hit multiple time etc. Defenately not as hard as a souls game.
@Loamy ive always wanted to work in a zoo. As a keen keeper of many reptiles in the past and just a few as of now (2 snakes and 2 tortoises) and a previous marine/coral tank enthusiast and just a huge animal lover in general this would be amazing to do. I can sympathise with your reasons to leave the trade tho. Must be very hard.
Been playing it today for a few hours. Ive encountered no problems so far at all. The control map takes a bit of getting used to tho but it seems solid enough so far. As a keeper of a few reptiles myself i cant wait to build some exhibits. Just a real feel good game.
Great Ghostbusters tag line too.
And just after i bullied my mate in to getting a PS5 last week stating the free games are usually good. Glad he managed to nab Sifu and F1 23 and these games wasnt his first month.
@Smithylfc2008 i turned the screenshot notification off so i could just snap pics on Tifa without her seeing that i had taken a load of screenshots. Good job she doesnt use the PS5 otherwise she would just see jigglers in my album๐๐
When i get time to play it will be back to Rebirth. Chapter 10 now. I did manage to snag a copy of Robocop for ยฃ30 tho but atm its all about FF. Im determined not to get sidetracked with anything else. Well, maybe some Helldivers 2.
@AhabSpampurse ive never come across one yet. Are they newly introduced or are they just on the higher difficulties. I have been playing on extreme mind you?
Im just happy to be able to play the game. On chapter 9 now and enjoying my time with it alot. By now with alot of games my short attention span would usually have pulled me on to something else but im enjoying Rebirth alot.
I have absolutely no clue what any of the above comments mean but i think im going to buy this. Ive seen nothing but praise for it. May grab it on switch tho as it sounds like a good for some portible play.
Not played this for a while as ive been hooked on FF rebirth but as soon as im done with it im back to spreading democracy and insect guts. Amazing game.
@Sgt_Peppa bit late to the party on this one mate but if it helps heres my 2 cents from a non sporting fan. EA PGA is the first sports game ive played for more than a week, first sports game ive ever got the platinum for, first sports game that has made me day 1 the new entry when its out and first sports game me and my (non gaming) wife were addicted to. We both were playing it daily together 3 months later. Outstanding golf game.
Surely it needs to be code veronica soon. If any game is screaming to be remadecits that one. I dont know what they can do to 5 and 6 to actually make them good without changing everything.
Only problem i have with this game is the stupid collecting green slime etc and the online infrastructure. Absolute mess to get in to a game with a buddy or group of friends having to all have watched the latest cut scene etc. MH rise was a much smoother expierience.
@Mostik ive always been an Akuma fan. I think hes the coolest looking character. I likechow theyve greyed his hair from his younger red head days and given him a big old beard.
