Re: Reaction: Sony Flubs First Proper PS5 Presentation in Over 18 Months

OmegaStriver

It was a 4/10 at best for me. I NEVER imagined it would be this bad after waiting so long. No Factions, Twisted Metal, Wolverine, Sony Bend game, Ghost of Tsushima 2, etc. I usually don’t bash these shows, but man that was garbage.

I miss the days of Uncharted, TLoU, Infamous, Resistance, Little Big Planet, Motorstorm, The Puppeteer, Sly Cooper, Twisted Metal. Todays show was so damn aggravating.

Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You for the PlayStation Showcase?

@OrtadragoonX Uncharted could be completely rebooted telling an entirely different story, with different cast, in a different decade or century. I see the Uncharted universe as bigger than Nathan Drake. I see Uncharted like the MCU, Nathan is in its universe, but there are other stories to tell, there are other adventures to be had.

Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You for the PlayStation Showcase?

OmegaStriver

For whatever reason, I’m not really that hyped. I expect to be disappointed. It feels like there is no way they can get me hyped after being quiet for so long. They’ve annoyed me too much over the past 3 years.

I hope I’m wrong though.

I would love an Uncharted game with a brand new everything. Uncharted is bigger than Nathan and his friends and family. It could take place in a different decade or century.

I’d love for Motorstorm to return, even though it would be with a different team. Sony shutting down evolution pissed me off.

I could write a book on what I hope they have at that show and how they’ve dissatisfied me, but it is what it is.

Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Announced for PS5, Out 19th September

OmegaStriver

@Realist Im with you. Cinematic’s do NOTHING for me now if there isn’t some gameplay here and there. Most time when I see a new game trailer I immediately skip to the gameplay to see if it’s for me. Don’t get me wrong, I love stories, but I need to see gameplay.

Re: Deviation Games' PS5 Exclusive Project Doesn't Appear to Be Progressing Well

OmegaStriver

@nomither6 If the project sucked and was in poor condition and wasn’t likely to be improved without bringing in another team and burning more cash, why would they want to do that?

This easily COULD be the best decision but considering you and I DONT know that state of the project, we can’t make an accurate statement.

With that said, there is no reason to bash Sony in this instance since again, you don’t know that state of things.

Re: Mortal Kombat 12 Teaser Trailer Hints at Series Reboot for PS5

OmegaStriver

I always assumed that’s basically what was going to happen according to the ending of the MK11 DLC.

I don’t know why some people would be surprised.

It’s been years since I beat it, but I believe it also alluded to going back in time.

So, I n ver understand all these people begging for characters when if it actually took place during the great Kung Lao era, none of the mains would be present, but this could just be locked to the story mode and regular modes could have some of the traditional favorites.

Re: Soapbox: I No Longer Think Subscriptions Like PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Are the Future of Gaming

OmegaStriver

I still stand by say I hope not because either the prices of the subs will have to rise or quality will have to take a hit.

I prefer traditional games with traditional experiences at a traditional price.

I paid 70$ for Mortal Kombat 2 back in the 90s. I have no issue with games being 70$ or higher, BUT, like then, I only buy them if I really think they are worth it. I’d give 100$ for the newest GoW, but I wouldn’t give 50$ for that newest Saints Row.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?

OmegaStriver

@KaijuKaiser I specifically looked into the PS5 version and people are reporting that it’s fine, not good, but still has quite a few issues.

I’m just over letting these companies think it’s okay to release a game with the intention of fixing it in the future.

I’m not going to give them their day one week one success sales numbers.

Re: Destiny 3 Begins Trending on Twitter As Fans Are Fed Up with Current Game

OmegaStriver

I played Destiny 2 for a few months after release and then quit.

After it went F2P, I hopped back in for a very short time but deleted it soon after.

I’m just not a fan of what’s required to keep up with what’s actually happening in it, and now, things have been removed and if you haven’t followed it closely you will be lost.

I prefer they soft reboot Destiny 3.

Re: Sony's Long Anticipated PS5, PS4 Showcase Could Be Scheduled for May

OmegaStriver

@AFCC With Sony deciding to focus on GaaS and PC, it will be a very long time before the PS4 dies.

From here on out, innovation and pushing games forward by utilizing new tech like the PS5 and eventually the PS6 in all regard is out of the picture.

We’ll probably be halfway into the PS6’s life before we see the PS5 tech maxed out.

Re: Flagship First-Party Naughty Dog Will Develop for PS5 and PC Moving Forwards

OmegaStriver

@EhronLocke I was speaking for myself and my friends where money isn’t much of an issue.

I bought 3 PS4s, 2 PSVRs, and 2 PS5s for me and my family over the last 10 years. I truly have no idea how much I’ve spent on games.

If I move to PC, Sony will lose out on hardware sales, and a ***** ton of PlayStation store sales that my family and I make. Remember, Sony makes money on ever single purchase made in the PS Store as well including mtxs and dlc. So, if I move to PC they will miss out on me buying Assassin’s Creed for example. My friends are the same way as myself.

Heck, Sony may not care, but they EASILY stand to lose 10000s of thousands of dollars bare minimum just on us with the direction they are pushing us.

Re: Flagship First-Party Naughty Dog Will Develop for PS5 and PC Moving Forwards

OmegaStriver

I called it a long time ago. There won’t be much of a reason to buy a console in the future and if they have to cater to weaker PCs it’s going to hinder quality going forward as well. Hell, they are already push GaaS too.

I’m absolutely despise the direction PlayStation is headed. These companies are also pushing subscriptions services which will also attribute to the decline of top tier quality as well.

I dread seeing the state of games in 7 years.

This is just absolutely ***** news.

Hell, they already hindered the PS5 for these past few years due to PS4 crossgen and now they are going to make it a permanent path with weaker PCs. We won’t see a true PS5 game until halfway into the PS6’s generation.

Re: Microsoft Thinks It Hasn't 'Pulled Any Games' from PS5, PS4

OmegaStriver

@get2sammyb It’s a slightly different subject but I’ve said for a while now, Microsoft will offer many games in a traditional manner but it will get to the point to where they won’t sell them, you will only be able to play them on GamePass at a price of 25$ or higher a month, and when it comes to other competitors like Sony, the only way they will be able to have the games is if they allow GamePass on their consoles. That way they never lied, they’ve offered their games to competitors.

Microsoft will eventually strong arm everyone.

You wanna play COD? You will have to subscribe.

Give it 10 years, it will happen.
