@LifeGirl I don't know what that thing you wrote was but I'm just going to go out on a limb and guess you aren't in fact the first and only person on planet earth who wants to be treated like s*** in a video game, on the web, or anywhere else.
@Coffeeglitch But they never did that with it. They clarified that back in October.
"Responding to a YouTube comment regarding the hero-shooter rumors, Bungie emphasized that Marathon’s Runners will have a “couple of base abilities” with a focus on player freedom and individuality, where each player can fine-tune their loadouts and abilities instead of picking from preset “hero” characters with assigned abilities. “Our goal with Runners is to give you a couple of base abilities to build your loadout around while still giving you a lot of freedom to choose what weapons, implants, upgrades, and consumables you bring in,” the developer explained. “This won’t feel like when you just choose a hero and then get whatever weapon/abilities are assigned to them.”"
@Boxmonkey If you think that's why so many people wanted the new Assassin's Creed to flop then you missed a whole hell of a lot about the new Assassin's Creed.
@Oram77 The only downside I found with it was the Team Ninja loot flood you have to deal with from all enemies. Excellent action RPG set in an interesting time in Japan's history with a large, rich game world to explore.
@Perturbator By chance did you only play the original launch versions of BF 2042's maps? Because through updates DICE eventually reworked all of the original launch maps (locationally rearranged most to all of the elements on them) improving their playability.

@breakneck If you believe you'll ever get a business to go with, "Well it'll already be profitable without this," over, "As a business we should try to make as much money as possible," then I absolutely have no idea what to tell you.
Well, I wouldn't buy a GTA game for any price, but a $50 PS1 game in 1996 adjusted for inflation today would be approximately $100. If anything we've just had it very easy for a weird amount of time.
The day before my PS5 Pro arrived I sold my original PS5 console at a local video game store, and having watched them test my PS5 console I can assure you that's the exact same boot screen the original PS5 has.
I actually find what I'm about to say somewhat nit-picky, but while I do think this feature sounds great and I look forward to trying it out on my PS4 games, I just don't understand why Sony left the description of it in the console's settings so completely vague to where we all have to find articles or Reddit threads online to figure out what the hell the setting actually does.

My condolences on confronting its title being stylized that way. Thoughts and prayers.

@Frmknst I think accounting for fantasy/swords and sorcery titles alone renders your comment more than a bit odd.

@Juanalf Disc rot will not be visually discernable but functionally.

Re: Rise of the Ronin Would Not Have Been Made Without Sony
Excellent game, would play it again on the PS5 Pro if the performance was better with ray-tracing enabled.
Re: Sony's AI Leak Reveals a Creepy Sci-Fi Future PS5 Gamers Don’t Necessarily Want
@PsBoxSwitchOwner Anyone thinks that?
Re: Sony's AI Leak Reveals a Creepy Sci-Fi Future PS5 Gamers Don’t Necessarily Want
@Porco ...the theory that anyone would be skipping improving enemy A.I. and instead would just seek to work solely on this is interesting.
Re: Sony's AI Leak Reveals a Creepy Sci-Fi Future PS5 Gamers Don’t Necessarily Want
One of the cooler implementations I can think of for A.I. in games.

@Oram77 Might be fun if you think about it.

Re: Resident Evil 6 Appears Set for a PS5 Port
@IntrepidWombat Apparently not.
Re: Resident Evil 6 Appears Set for a PS5 Port
@PuppetMaster Exoprimal's server was never shut down, all they did was end seasonal updates.
Re: Resident Evil 6 Appears Set for a PS5 Port
3/10 suggests an almost broken, barely playable game. That score is so weirdly off the mark it's sort of funny.
Re: Code Violet Takes Aim at Dinosaur Horror in June on PS5
Very cool, love the style. I'll keep an eye on it.
Re: Would You Pay $100 for GTA 6?

"Too many proper nouns"?

@PuppetMaster If you're calling it a Splatoon clone then you've never actually played it.
Re: Foamstars Support Ends in January as Square Enix Drops Soapy Live Service Shooter
@Mintie As the article says it's not shutting down, there will just be no further seasonal updates after the upcoming season.
Re: Hypnotic PS5 Pro Boot Screen, Background Worth the Upgrade
@gipsojo Fortunately not, the background the article mentioned is indeed unique to the PS5 Pro but both have the same boot screen.
