All public events took a heavy hit with this pandemic. It's unreal.
That said, there's nothing stopping the companies from making digital live streaming events however, and getting the point across. It's not going to be the same thing, but it is something.
What boggles my mind is why there haven't been similar lockdowns back with the H1N1 epidemic? I've googled over and over again, and CDC estimates that in 2009 there have been 150 - 575 thousands of people dying that year. And yet there haven't been lockdowns in almost all western and eastern countries.
So either they estimate that the death toll is going to be much higher with the Coronavirus (which only recently hit 165 thousands dead), or there is something else going on.
@Quintumply If you guys are willing to (help us) pass the time, how about a couple of polls? Like, "Which PS5 game are you looking forward to the most", or "what do you want to see in the new PS5 in terms of features", or "do you see the PS5 becoming a jet engine with such high clocks - yes or no?" or something.
This will give plenty of comments and may also give a couple of good ideas to share with each other too.
@JoeBlogs More polite? Dude, you should check out reddit.
At any rate, there is nothing wrong with a slow news day (or week or month - thanks, Corona!), but I feel the particular topic (PS5 mock-ups) has been done to DEATH. I must have seen about 10 different articles about 'what the PS5 is NOT going to look like'.
Not only is a legitimately poor topic to make a discussion on (I mean, what is there to discuss?) but it is also one that has overstayed its welcome, by a lot too.
@Uoman "Not hard to find other articles, including from Japan itself, discussing how due to the regimes inaction they're facing a potential collapse of their medical system."
Which actually proves what I've been telling you: Japan took its sweet-ass time, did NOT issue a lockdown until two weeks ago and the Coronavirus is NOT responsible for the poor job SquareEnix did on the FF7 textures, since the Japanese government never bothered to address the problem and have proper lockdowns to impede employees from doing their jobs. People kept going to work normally until the 6th of April, ergo, Corona is not responsible for the FF7 textures.
"But I'm sure you just didn't see those articles rather than just cherry picking ones that support your position."
I googled "Japan lockdown Coronavirus" and gave you the very first results I got. This isn't cherry picking at all. Here, see for yourself.
"They've done roughly 3.5% of the tests any other neighboring country has."
How is this relevant in any way to the conversation?
"Simply search 'japans reaction to the coronavirus' in any search engine you want. Bloomberg, The Japan Times, et al."
No.
Proving your point with facts is your job, not mine. Either give me links and articles proving that the majority of the Japanese employees were prevented from going to work a lot earlier than the 6th of April, or take the L and move on. I'm not going to do your work for you. If you say there are flying pigs, it's up to you to prove it, not me.
"I think we can all understand the financial implications of spending billions to host the Olympics and what having them outright canceled could mean."
Still strengthening my argument, still weakening yours. The fact that a lot of money were at stake made the Japanese government turn a blind eye to the problem and, again, take its sweet time and not issue a lockdown until it was way too late. For the last time, not issuing a lockdown means that people kept doing their jobs at their workplace, not vice versa. Stop handwaving this. This is important.
"But hey, nice try. Maybe YOU should actually take a moment and get informed."
I gave you links, facts and proof, you responded with vague and irrelevant statements which either hurt your narrative or do nothing to dispute my claims altogether.
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the console is revealed when it hits stores ... literally. You'll just enter an electronics store and poof! There it is, sitting on a shelf.
@Uoman Except that JAPAN went into a lockdown due to the pandemic on the 7th of April, which is 3 days before the game became available to the consumers.
And the lockdown was considered 'soft' because it did not ban travel and transportation altogether.
But don't get me wrong, that was an amazing attempt on your part to make yourself sound well-informed. Nice flavor of adding your personal opinion on FFXV, even though - AGAIN - it is irrelevant.
But since you seem to like personal flavor ...
I'm Greek. I live in one of the countries who indeed, acted fast in the pandemic. Japan was criticized for taking its sweet-ass time, like the US of A did. So yeah, I'm familiar with the lockdown.
Let's all just admit that Square did a poor job with the textures or the PS4 version and move on, shall we?
@Uoman Oh, please - the Corona card? Seriously? The pandemic had absolutely NO impact on the quality of the textures of FF7 - unless you think that Square started working on the textures once the game had gone GOLD (which is, suffice to say, insane). FF7 had been worked on for like, five or six years? Are you seriously telling me a couple of weeks during the pandemic is to blame for the textures?
No, there is absolutely no excuse for the lousy textures the game has. If you want to turn a blind eye to this problem, more power to you, but that doesn't mean it's not a problem.
FF7 is nowhere near the level of content FFXV was (an open world game, while FF7 is far shorter and more linear), which makes it even more absurd to have such low quality graphics (characters & monsters excluded, those look amazing).
I have no idea what that stuff you said about FFXV's chapter 15 have anything to do with this discussion, so I won't comment on that.
FF7 Remake is an amazing game and I enjoy the hell out of it. But that doesn't stop me from calling a spade a spade and call out Square on their pitiful overall graphical quality of the game. Was it unfamiliarity with the Unreal Engine? Did they sacrifice visuals because framerate dropped with better textures? Did they make the game with the PS5 in mind and the PS4 is a lesser, non-optimized port of the actual game? I don't know, and Square isn't telling.
What I do know, is that in this day and age, an AAA game which costs 100$ is unacceptable to have such visuals.
@Zinokoji I never said anything about Tifa or any of the main characters/antagonists - I think they look amazing. Monsters too.
My problem is with the backgrounds. Midgar when you look at it from the plates above looks like crap - literally. Trees and branches in the slums where you traverse with Aerith look like Dreamcast backgrounds. It's unacceptable.
THE DOOR IN CLOUD'S FREAKIN' APARTMENT LOOKS WORSE THAN THE DOORS YOU OPEN IN THE ORIGINAL RESIDENT EVIL 1, BACK IN OL' 1998!
@ILikeStake No, dude. Some textures are flat out HORRIBLE. They look like something out of a DREAMCAST game - this is unacceptable for an AAA game which is actually a remake of one of the most beloved video games of all time.
I mean, I'm a PS gamer (while I have owned quite a few other systems in my lifetime), and I make a fair comparison: Compare the textures of FFVII Remake to those of FFXV, the previous FF game made by the same company. FFXV's environment textures look ten times better.
@Neolit I'm not buying it. FFXV is a much larger game with much better quality in the textures of the backgrounds. Something doesn't gel.
Either they rushed it (which makes no sense, it is unacceptable to have an AAA game with PS4 character models walking around a dreamcast map with ENB lighting), or they intend to release a 'true' PS5 version in six months (you gave a 100$ for the PS4 version? Well f u, now pay a 100$ more to buy the version which actually LOOKS good).
Either way, unacceptable for a game of this magnitude and significance to the IP, the fanbase and gaming in general.
@duhsoares21 Yeah, this is clearly meant to make PS users buy a PS5 for this game. Their excuse doesn't make sense considering they have to tailor it for an HDD PC version as well.
"It'll either have a RE4 style of inventory, or a RE7 one". "It'll either be action horror, but it may also be survival horror." "It may have Chris, but he may look nothing like it."
Robert, I advise you to not only update your review once the day-1 patch is released and fixes the texture issue, but remove that paragraph altogether in the actual review.
That is, if there is a day-1 patch (which many people claim it will be).
@kyleforrester87 There's a chance they scrapped that project. We'll see. And if the X Series S is weaker than the PS5, it will be suicide to release it at the SAME price. It needs to be far cheaper.
Well, what did you expect the competition to say? "We're gonna get clobbered?" Of course he's got to say they've got the better product, and specs-wise, they do in quite a few regards.
Games and talent. That's what's going to win the fight. And so far, neither side has shown their cards. Engine demos and BC abilities do not count.
Even if all of Sony's exclusives turn into console exclusives … does it really matter? For me, it doesn't. You can still play those games on the PS ecosystem, you can still get an amazing piece of hardware for 400 bucks, you can still get amazing deals on PSN.
Jesus! Some manchildren act as if it's the end of the world!
I think it's quite obvious that Sony is going for full gaming immersion: A wireless PSVR helmet with 3d audio headphones to immerse the player both in eyes and ears. And the haptic triggers will try to bring a lesser level of immersion on the gamer's fingertips.
The question is: Will the gamers embrace this immersion as the next level of gaming? Or will they condemn it as a mere distraction, a niche novelty, a cheap gimmick with little lasting appeal?
I'm worried about cooling and fan noise. I don't want another jet engine. If there are reports that it's really loud, I'll either wait for a Pro version, or a version with better thermal cooling.
