Hopefully, we get more granular data, like, I don't know - maybe how much time you spent in menus, how many deaths if applicable, how many games "beaten," most out of the norm game. Genre, time, and trophies are cool and all, but they've definitely got some strange data entries on all of us. It'd be cool to share some of that.
@B0udoir hey, I can confirm the PS Collection Monster Hunter World doesn't include Iceborne. I was wondering the same thing because the launcher graphic is Iceborne, so I'm like where is Iceborne?. But, no. You have to buy Iceborne, which I think goes on sale for 9.99USD all the time.
Games are entirely too cheap - makes no sense why they're so cheap compared to movies, music, and books. GTA6 is surely a $100-150 game. Shoot, The Witcher 3 was easily a $100 game. Vampire Survivors at $5 on PSN? That's easily a $20 game. I love the current price structure of games because I'm greedy and love having bunches of things I love, but if prices were to explore the possibilities or just trend upwards, I'd probably buy fewer titles. I'd then be pinched to make wiser purchasing decisions, but I'm not sure if that's a bad thing considering the presence of an ever grow backlog that will never be managed at this rate. Greed vs putting money more proportionally into where I put my time is a thought. Thoughts on thoughts.
Another great month! I usually spend probably close to $1000 dollars a year on games, but at this rate I'm not sure I'll even break $300 (ps+ included in that number😬).
Whoa, nice! A couple updates back made the platinum unobtainable (the craft everything trophy was messed up), then the following update "fixed" it, but your existing world didn't pop it. You had to start another world, craft everything, boom. And before this, the wall decor trophy was messed up. They've had some issues, but it's nice to see it happen in the reverse for a change. I know that game has been driving some people insane.
@Golem25 Yeeesss! I'm always up for trophies tied to 100%ing a game. This went from a I'll get to it type of game to a must play (as long as what's collected registers properly). Well, I guess as long as it's fun on some level too😝
And here I was wishing there were more platinums that require 100%ing the game😝. Like the AC Valhalla list just makes my mouth water or the Yakuza series of course! Crash 4's another that's got dope list.
@ChrisDeku I was thinking the same thing. Right afterwards, they felt the demand was high enough in the West to include a PS3 Yakuza 5 case in some collector's edition of the remastered PS4 versions - a case for a game that was previously only available digitally. I'm pretty sure Gio Corsi is the major catalyst in bringing Yakuza to the West.
I'm glad you liked it. Arkham Origins was very good, so I'm more than happy to throw some money WB Montreal's way. I just hate this took an entire generation to get out. Coming from a gamer who has played games, I'm so confused on the 30fps point. 60fps is cool and all, but a solid 30fps has never once bothered me. Maybe I'm not a good enough player.
Man, I'm mega excited for these upcoming racing titles. WRCgen, Dakar, this rumored NFS, Wreckfest 2 has gotta be cooking, too! And now this!!! Shoot even these upcoming kart racers might be dope. We'll be eating good soon.
Lol. No. If those newcomers are having questions about their box, they should stop being lazy and read the user manual they just threw to the side and not waste the customer service team's time. They literally send help with every box.

Re: Ubisoft Suggests More Development Time Required for Future Assassin's Creed Games
