Re: PS5 Handheld Device in the Works at Sony, New Report Claims

MasterEMFG

A pipe dream that most wouldn’t want but…

Would be awesome to launch with a wireless PSVR2. Make an enthusiasts version that could connect to the HMD and either tether to the handheld or stream.

Again… this is wishful thinking and I’m likely a
minority with these wishes haha.

Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?

MasterEMFG

@Rjak I heard there’s a way. Sorry I have no link or anything for you, but I’ve heard it’s doable.

Would be nice to have an Xbox that has that capability natively however.

No disc drive is a major deal breaker for me in addition to price. Was all for it until those tid bits of news

If I knew they had several PSVR2 AAA 40+hr games in the pipeline that were going to somehow benefit then maybe if there was a disc drive in it too

Re: How to Play PSVR2 on PC with the PC Adapter

MasterEMFG

@RubyCarbuncle it definitely needs a patch or two. I’ve got it up and running, but have tried two different Bluetooth set ups and the controllers are not agreeing with much even though one of the Bluetooth links I’m using is a supposedly approved by Sony one.

Super clear and beautiful image, but navigation is a bit wonky.

Managed to play some Subnautica, and Red Dead 2 (w Luke Ross Mod) last night. Red Dead is awesome in VR. It’s an absolute shame we likely would never get an official version.

Re: Microtransactions Don't Belong in a Single Player Game, Says The Witcher Dev

MasterEMFG

For most single player games I think there is a purist bunch that wants things initially untouched. No data mined info, no major exploits, no micro transactions.

Then there’s those players that would like to play a game but don’t have the time to grind for things. Though I’m against most mtxs other than cosmetics that don’t effect gameplay, I would be less opposed to mtx saayyyy 3-6 months after a game launched.

I get these devs need to make $$ as the price of a game hasn’t gone up to cover the cost of production and cost of living nowadays.

Re: Talking Point: How Do You Feel About the PS5 Pro?

MasterEMFG

I figured a mid gen upgrade is akin to a PC GPU and or storage upgrade

Even PSVR/PSVR2, when they came out, it was simply me investing in a second screen that freed up the tv and could do cool things. At the very least

So $400-$600 or so for either isn’t out of the question. I certainly spend less than upgrading my pc overall. Granted a pc can do a lot more.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dragon's Dogma 2?

MasterEMFG

Playing on PS5
So far so good
MTX wasn’t even noticeable and not in your face. Though I don’t like that it’s an option I think the reaction is overblown.

Biggest gripe is the frame rate which is pretty bad in my opinion. Mess with your eyes bad.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?

MasterEMFG

@Voltan agreed… though I go through spurts. Where I’ll play it every day for a game… then I just don’t want to be waving my arms around and switch to something else.

Wish devs would always support regular controller input. Sometimes I just want the visual immersion at the end of the day.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?

MasterEMFG

Red Matter 2, HFW, NMS, RE8, 4, Moss…

Been a decent bundle

That being said I wish there was a bit more in the pipeline as well as a solid media player at this point.

People seem to forget its niche and the pandemic. That and there’s plenty of regular games to play. Never expected VR to replace regular gaming. Just be an addition.

So I’ll be patient

Re: Rec Room Dev 'Can't Justify' a PSVR2 Port

MasterEMFG

Really a shame… I’m very happy with PSVR2 thus far, but feel like they shot themselves in the foot having it tethered.

Makes sense why Quest sold better. Everywhere I’d go I’d see stacks of it on the wall, it’s a standalone, cheaper investment for people, and a more thriving ecosystem.

Maybe Sonys next iteration will be portable/untethered and allow for game streaming. I know they had patents for the tech
