Yeah... that took so long i lost interest in the game. 😅

Yeah... the problem persists that it's still a glorified base building game. 😂
But the reduction in load times is the best feature imo.

@DennisReynolds Not necessarily, but there is a lot of negativity around it which makes me think it likely won't.
Also, it's resources compete with devil may cry which sold 7.8m copies.
So... i don't think the future of DD looks so rosy until DD2 gets to the numbers of it's predecessor and DMCV.
But, as you say, the original didn't sell so fast, it was a slow burn. We'll see how this does. I think that is what capcom is happy about for now. It's started ahead but the tail sales will determine the future of this one.

Does it look bright? It's still nowhere close to outselling the first entry.
I guess we will see the tail it will have.

What about load times?
Graphically it looks identical, but it does seem slightly smoother on ps5.

So many studios and so few games.
Lot's of waste on dead on arrival live service games.

Given how long it took cygames to release granblue relink... who knows when and if this will ever happen.

I don't care tbh. This series was stained from it's inception with the false reveal.

Can't wait for them to be bought and shutdown by the parent company again.
Sadly seems to be a cycle in UK game development.

Will give it a go, but ain't got the time atm.
Will wait for a good deal on it. Hopefully it meets my expectations as a Suikoden fan.

What a perfect opportunity to port revenge of death adder eh sega?

I hope the game is awesome. Konami denied us the future of the great Suikoden series as they did with their other beloved IP. Silent hill, metal gear and castlevania are in the same boat. Terrible management.

Anyways, hope this is a banger and creates a sucessor series to Suikoden.

There is a front page featurette with Fallout on the ps store. So it's not surprising.
I don't see the point of hyping up a microsoft IP though.

Would be nice if they released remasters of 3 and new vegas though.

I don't know. But i have been wondering about giving the first one a try given it's like 5 euros.
But i'm not sure it's for me. I find overly hard games to be a waste of my time and that is the impression i got from early reviews of the game.

Very excited to go back to it and replay the game with all the changes and the season pass content.
But, i am too busy with other games atm.

That much was obvious from the ending. 😅

That's good to know... but i still hate the story told in the show wasn't on a fallout 5 instead. It has major revelations for the whole series and many won't even know about them.
Like... why were the bombs dropped? Who dropped them and why?
These are very core pieces of story for the franchise and to see them dropped in a tv show is sad.

@DrVenture69 That is true. If you play something long enough, your brain will get used to it.
I was playing monster hunter world and the game is slow and i played for many hours and wouldn't notice anymore. Once i went to play a regular action game everything seemed way too fast and i had to get used to it again.
Like seriously... slow games are not good for the head and low fps isn't either.

With that said... the fps in ffxvi is fine. People exaggerate. I never even noticed an issue. If it's like sub 30fps it's a problem though.

@nomither6 Is that what you tell Mario and Sonic and their million sellers?

Everyone wants more Rayman but they were also quick to want it's creator fired.
I don't know how it's gonna happen now.

@__jamiie Yup. These cuts are not to save on costs, they are to increase profits.

@Martijn87 To be fair i have not looked enough into this game to know how it's structured. But thought i'd warn as a persona fan that tried other SMT games that ended up feeling very different.
Even persona 5 strikers feels off cause it's missing the life sim part.

But yes, i imagine this one would be more like a tales or star ocean but with the Atlus feel.

@ATaco That is a good point. I totally forgot. haha.
But yeah, kaine wasn't the main character.

@Nepp67 That is also a statement you can't make. Sorry, don't mean to antagonise you but that is just what a minority of vocal players is saying. The companies have the actual metrics.
Also, my position was to have difficulty levels, not to just have easy. I know FFXVI has difficulty levels. Dunno about DD2.

Now they've done it. Shadow will be more popular than Sonic. 😂

@Martijn87 Be careful. SMT and even Soul hackers are persona like. But they feel very different. The life sim and story make persona very engaging. Without it, the games feel very different. More dungeon crawler like.

@Nepp67 That is not a call you can make for every player. Some people like to roflstomp enemies and feel powerful with increased stats and are happy enjoying the story.
But, more importantly different players have different skill levels. It's impossible to make one size fits all. Which is why it's best to start easy and have difficulty options for those wanting a bigger challenge.

And now for an unpopular opinion.

I don't think that is difficult at all. Nier Automata was a more boring Nier (gestalt). The story was not at all very different nor the save shannenigans and the world. I guess some robotic rear end made it more appealing for the kiddies that missed out on the first one.

I still want to know where the dlc slots in.

This is nonsense. It's basically a ps6. It will create the same problems microsoft has with the S and the X.

I loved it, but can we try ATB again? Please? I really miss controlling a party of characters rather than just one.

I thought the difficulty was perfect.

I don't get the fixation with very difficult games. That's what higher difficulties are for. Normal story playthrough should always be accessible.

Fallout 4 is the worst of the bunch though. It's a glorified base building game.

Fallout 3 is the one i recommend.

They really should remaster it.

I smell a complete edition coming soon.

Anyways, great excuse to replay the game.

Ok finished watching.
I start to think they may indeed retcon new vegas. But new vegas itself, the location and it's leader are very much re-confirmed.
I do wish this story was in the games. It's kind of too important for a tv show. Unless the TV show is It's own universe.

I watched the first episode and it was ok. But, it's not the same. That vault story would've fit a game much better.
I found the other stories less interesting.
I will probably watch more and see how it develops.

Well... i would more quickly assume the TV show isn't canon.

I didn't play either one. But stellar sword is a bigger curiosity cause it's a new IP.

If i'm understanding this well and it's 2 million active users, the game sold way more than that and that's a gigantic number of simultaneous players.

I doubt sales numbers aren't at least on the 6m mark.

Sadly it won't ever be like Fallout 3 and new vegas. There was too much focus on settlement building and less overworld content.

Well... it is a copy of Splatoon, it makes sense it wouldn't have longevity. It didn't really bring anything new to the table.

I mean... it is likely. Capcom tends to do things like that and i actually like it. For example monster hunter always gets an expansion now (though not stories, annoyingly enough). I always liked the expansion model and it's much better than bite sized dlc.

I would say this poll was loaded if the point was to make that statement.

Of course everyone prefers a game that performs well. It isn't news.

It's like polling. Do you like if your game has good graphics? There is no excuse not to, it should be the target, i prefer good graphics but it's not a deal breaker, i don't care, no. What are these options? 🤣 Most of these options are yes or not important.

More interesting would be: How important do you feel 60fps is for you?
Scale of 1 to 5 on matter of importance from very important to not important at all.
What about 30fps?
What about a locked stable fps?

Etc.

Then you actually get a number worth something.

Oh kill it already. Nobody cares. Nobody cared ever since it was revealed. This was just a dumb exec decision that leads to money loss.

Well i don't know the details of the case, but it is outrageous if a work note is used as evidence in japanese courts.

1080p 60fps is what is required from me. Everything above is extra.

There really isn't anything i want from MS games. 🤷
TES6 maybe, but they will play coy with it.

It's shocking how much the japanese market shrunk with the years.
Or well... shifted to mobile i guess.

I remember the ps1 days when we saw hits every week and it wasn't uncommon to see 100k+ numbers.

This is a UK chart, so yes, it makes sense.
