Anybody still playing this or have updated thoughts on it? I was very interested before launch but it seemed to be a bit of a disaster by some accounts (although others said they enjoyed it to a certain degree)
I am having an amazing time with this game. Its clicking with me more than any other RE game I've played. I am usually not a huge fan of the inventory management or the combat but for some reason this one finds the sweet spot for everything. Beautiful visuals as well and smooth performance in my experience
I am probably way more excited than I should be for this given the unprecedented development hell the game has been through but everything they've shown looks really awesome. I love the art style and the gameplay looks really satisfying. Day 1 pending reviews of course
@WavesOfActivity I was unaware it was only going to run at 30 on console, that is majorly disappointing! I might be holding off as well now thanks for the info
EDIT: I just read this on the EA website: we’ve heard community feedback surrounding the fps of the game on console. As a result, we’re examining the ability to add it into the game in the future.
Hopefully that's a good sign of a performance mode coming sooner rather than later
This game is a fun and unique experience for anyone that hasn't tried it. Nothing groundbreaking but its something different and its a lot of fun. Great atmosphere and environmental visuals as well and the DualSense support is maybe the best I've ever seen
This game looks really good. I am trying to hold off on buying it at launch though. I was annoyed paying full price for Tekken 7 at launch with the limited amount of content it offered and I don't want to make that mistake again
I got the platinum on Friday night and I will say the collecting everything to complete all collections was a bit tough by the end but it felt very rewarding once it was over. Starting the game over 3 times is annoying given the tedious nature of learning the same spells over and over then running back and forth between the same places but as stated earlier it only takes about 2 hours for each house
Super stoked to see Legacy of Thieves! Can't wait to play Uncharted 4 on next gen hardware. Ghostwire Tokyo is an awesome and underrated game for anyone that has not played it
@Loamy Glad to hear that, I will certainly be giving it a fair shake but am not willing to spend full price given the wildly different accounts of how it plays and feels. The world looks fantastic though and that alone guarantees I will be playing it eventually
@dark_knightmare2 I've heard it from a lot of different reviewers that I trust and also from people playing the game. I am glad you are enjoying it though I look forward to trying it out sometime in the future
The combat/gameplay seems to be lacking from what I have heard in terms of weight and feel which is pretty much the number one criteria for enjoyment for me in a game like this. I am definitely going to play it at some point but likely once it drops below 25 bucks on a deep sale
@Toypop haha alright man I think you are the one making points up for the sake of argument, the concept of the service is simple and if you don't see value in it then don't subscribe, you don't have to grasp at straws of reasoning for why other people find value in it. Peace!
@Toypop there are a lot of games I would not buy on their own that I am excited to check out when they hit PS Plus. Calling it "effectively worthless" for not having HFW at launch is nonsense. Judging by this poll the majority of responders did not purchase it at launch and are excited by its inclusion
This game looks awesome but the main thing for me is gameplay and how satisfying the combat feels, and I am hearing that is exactly where the game is lacking. Still looks really cool but I will wait for a decent discount
Really loving it so far. Not going to rate until I am done with it but I am leaning toward a 9. The one thing I really dislike is the fog constantly used in the open world. I assume it is to hide graphical imperfections but it really takes away from the experience at times
@TooBarFoo wow I was not getting that sense at all but maybe I have not watched enough footage, the visuals actually looked far better than Rise from the albeit limited things that I have seen. I don't think it appears to be tailored towards kids at all either seeing as it seems to be relatively difficult still
Looks like a lot of fun and hopefully a little bit more accessible than MH? I'll be waiting for sale either way there is too much to play right now but this is definitely on my radar
@Flora2122 VR is a much more niche market than games made for the general audience, it would not make much sense to allocate top teams to projects most people are not going to see
@ZoSo Appreciate the feedback! I just didn't know if I should invest four hours into it if it is not really going to give me a good sense of how the game is. I think this a game I will inevitably play at some point down the road given its reputation
A ton of people loved this apparently but it felt like a completely different show to me and a bad one at that. I thought the acting was weak, particularly the guy who played Frank, and the pacing was all over the place. Not well made at all in my opinion but I will keep watching of course as the first two episodes nailed it for me
@kryptozoologist Dude thank you. All I am seeing is people heaping praise on this and I hated it every minute of it. I loved the first two episodes and this one was nearly impossible to get through
@DaYdReAmEr86 The frame rate issues for me have been really noticeable with RT enabled so I have been playing exclusively in performance. Even the cutscenes have very noticeable drops in the RT mode its pretty bad. Horrible pop in too where entire mountains will disappear and reappear in the background
