Re: Former PlayStation Boss Saddened by PixelOpus Studio Closure

Pepsiman_100

@KaijuKaiser Its the same thing all the time. People sleep on all the unique creative stuff with a weighted blanket and warm milk but are wide awake when sony annoucnes another cinematic hyper realistic game, when capcom announces the 34th resident evil or 78th street fighter, or when fromsoft announces their 40th souls game. Its not until we lost those great developers that everyone wants to finally acknowledge them

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty?

Pepsiman_100

I'd give it maybe a 7.5 or 8. It's pretty good but I wish they added just a little more of nioh's mechanical depth. I appreciate it being easier tho. However I'm getting burned out on these souls games from Team ninja. They've done 4 of these now and it's getting very tiring. They're still enjoyable but it's tiring. I'm glad they're finally doing something new with Rise of the ronin next year

Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About Final Fantasy 16?

Pepsiman_100

So here's the thing. I'm hype as hell for it cuz it simply looks great and we could definitely use more stylish action type games but on the other hand I don't exactly wanna see everything become a hack n slash either. Part of me would've liked if this game also used 7remakes combat system. I think that system does a great job with action and strategy. It doesn't allow you to just mash away. You gotta utilize your party to overcome which is great.

I'm not a fan of turn based combat but I really do enjoyed valkyrie profile and Indivisible's combat where a character is assigned to a face button and you press that butt9n to attack. I'd love to see FF use a system like that too. But either way I'm still hype for this

Re: Metal Gear Rising Fans Handed New Artwork Instead of a Remaster

Pepsiman_100

@Beerheadgamer82 They're just celebrating the awesome game they made. It's cool that they still acknowledge it imo. If you wanna question anyone question konami. It's all up to them for a sequel to be made. Platinum has said many times how they wanna do sequels to their past games but as usual it's up to the publisher. If it was up to Platinum we probably would've had metal gear rising 2 and 3 by now

Re: Like a Dragon: Ishin's PS5, PS4 Trophy List Will Destroy You

Pepsiman_100

@Golem25 yea I definitely get what you're saying. I honestly like when a games Platinum is pretty tough cuz it does feel good overcoming those challenges. But there's challenge and then there's tedium, grind, and cheapness if that's even a word.

There's having to learn entire mini games like mahjong, black jack, koi koi, there's those same mini games having god awful RNG or insane difficulty like puyo puyo, there's drone racing where even with the best build there can be you slam into one wall and it's all over while the cpu drones have perfect steering, perfect durability, perfect everything really. I can keep going but I'm just saying that with these Plats/achievements you have challenge and you have chore and the yakuza games are definitely chores imo

Re: Like a Dragon: Ishin's PS5, PS4 Trophy List Will Destroy You

Pepsiman_100

I'd really love to know why RGG is always so bent on making the platinum trophy foe these games the most unenjoyable experience. I get that these platinums aren't gonna always be a walk in the park but that doesn't mean they need to be the most awful experience either.

At this point Y6 will probs be the only yakuza game I ever platted

Re: Wanted: Dead Brings Big Bargain Bin Vibes in PS5, PS4 Trailer

Pepsiman_100

I genuinely w9nder why people have to give such "compliments" to games like this. Bargain bin vibes? You could just say it looks like a ps2 era title, or maybe a sleeper hit or something. I've seen others call this game the "coolest looking trash" they've ever seen or a janky mess that they can't wait to play. Yea it doesn't have the graphics or animations of a AAA Sony game or anything but it still looks good. Can't people just say it looks cool?

Re: Metal Gear Rising 10th Anniversary 'Event' Teased

Pepsiman_100

@nomither6 Agreed. MGR's fun factor definitely surpasses the likes of gow and dmc. Dmc may have the deepest mechanical pool, but nothing in the series compares to being blitzed by cyborg gorillas or the katana wielding enemies, skipping across a stream of missiles, or any of the boss battles. It's hard to top Platinum when it comes to pure fun and hype

Re: Fans Are At War with Street Fighter 6's PS5, PS4 Box Art

Pepsiman_100

My issue is more with Capcom box art in general and not just with this. They have a good number of talented legendary artists that they can have make cover arts for their games but for whatever reason refuse to use them. Kinu Nishimura, Shinkiro, Bengus, Ikeno, Edayan. Did they all retire? Do they just not mess with Capcom anymore? Are they too expensive now? Like what's the deal?

Re: Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive Reboots Planned at Team Ninja

Pepsiman_100

@rawzeku I love P* but idk about this. I'm sure they'd do a great job, but certain games need to stay with their og developers. Team ninja made ninja gaiden as fun as it is and idk if P* can make it feel the same way. Same way I wouldn't want Capcom doing a bayonetta game cuz it's P* who made it as fun and hype as it is. Yea Capcom would probably do an amazing job with the combat and mechanics, but can they make the same kinda hype boss fights? The same kinda level design?

Re: Arad Chronicle: Kazan Has All the Trappings of a Worthy Soulslike

Pepsiman_100

Yea the mire I think about it the more upset I get. They really said let's scrap this cool, colorful 3D dungeon fighter game with multiple playable characters and go for a more dark and dreary souls like game with one dude🤦

Hope to see gameplay soon cuz if it still resembles the BBQ gameplay than that'd be great but now there's a chance it'll have huge bosses with huge attack ranges that kill you in 1-2 hits, enemy layout where you have an aggressive enemy up close while 3 shoot at you from a distance, flippin stamina bars, and the good Ole frustrating difficulty that the devs might think is "tOuGh bUt FaIr" but is actually just bs.

But hey hopefully I'm wrong. Hopefully it'll just have a few souls like features and is mostly its own thing and still ends up being really fun

Re: Colossal Flop Babylon's Fall Hasn't Changed Platinum's Plans for More Live Service Games

Pepsiman_100

I wish only the best for them. Maybe it'll actually work out. It's not like every gas game ever made was a flop. An anarchy reigns type game can work pretty well as a gas game. Just add more characters, stages, weapons, and make sure it plays well. They're regular action games, as amaz8ng as they are, just don't sell well enough so now they're trying something new. What else do people expect them to do? Like the author said just cuz Babylon fell doesn't mean their other attempts are guaranteed to do so as well. We'll just have to wait and see

Re: Sony Wasn't Interested in New JRPG from Ex-Wild Arms Devs

Pepsiman_100

You know people would always say sony isn't the same and they lost their identity and all that (I was one of those people I admit) but at the end of the day these games just don't sell like that anymore. People don't buy em. They all want the same stuff. Its almost as if a dev has to get lucky for their new IP to sell well. And that's for any company really.

Fromsoft keeps doing souls games cuz that's all people want. Sega keeps doing yakuza cuz that's all people want. Capcom keeps doing the same RE's, Monhun, and Street fighters cuz that's all people buy. If they made a Rival school with as much love and budget that sf6 seems to have I bet it still wouldn't sell enough.

Platinum has mostly put out various unique bangers their whole career yet they're still struggling to this day.

Sony is still a business at the end of the day. They're just doing what brings in the money. It's very unfortunate especially for people like me who love Japanese games and variety but it's just how it is.

Re: Immediate Backlash as Sony Asks Players About Purchasing NFTs

Pepsiman_100

Regardless of any survey results or feedback they're still probably gonna do NFTs. Surely they've seen the backlash against them and I hardly even see nfts being brought up anymore yet they're still here like "you guys interested in nfts? Are you suuuuure? Are you really really suuuure?? Breathe if yes, recite the Bible in Japanese if no"

Re: Poll: What PS Stars Rewards Do You Want?

Pepsiman_100

I think the digital figures sound pretty dope. Would be a cool reward for getting a Plat. Maybe give the figures different poses. 3 or 4 poses should be fine. They can have some kind of virtual display too like how smash bros melee and guilty gear Rev 2 had.

I would like to earn credits for games and dlc but I'm sure the requirements would be insane. Probably earn 1,000 platinum trophies or having to have been subscribed to ps plus since it first came out or some ridiculous bs

Re: Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura Touches on the Future of Final Fantasy in Kingdom Hearts

Pepsiman_100

I know the FF characters weren't that important to the story, but it was still cool to see them there. All you need to do is just give them a world where they help sora with whatever enemies would be there to push the plot forward a little bit just like they did in traverse town and Hollow bastion in KH1 and 2.

They could be party members and sora and cloud could have a double omnislash limit break. COME ON NOMURA. COME ON.

But fr even if you don't wanna include them in the story how about just giving them cameos? Making them summons maybe? Secret boss? There was no need to completely scrap them. To say that the basis of the series isn't ff x disney is silly cuz we all know about the elevator conversation all those years ago and how the series came to be.

Re: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Also Coming to PS5, PS4

Pepsiman_100

I just hope this isn't another nioh. Let it be closer to ninja gaiden or something different. I don't mind a few similarities but I just don't want yet another nioh type game. At least drop the loot system. Kinda weird that they said they were done with nioh but make 2 games which are basically just that 😅

I'm still buying this regardless
