Cool. I'm more interested in how the greater Marvel Universe will be connected into this game. SP 1 & MM played it pretty contained with Spidey associated characters + Taskmaster. I wonder who we will be seeing in this one
Personally, I want to see Daredevil, Luke Cage, Dr. Strange, mayyyyybe an X-Man or so
@KundaliniRising333 how many exclusive games would you like to see per year? Like what would satisfy you, because although I agree you don't need to like everything that Sony do, I've never seen you under a comments section liking anything that anyone does.
Don't take it as an attack, or as me praising Sony, I'm just interested in what you actually want to see
@NEStalgia well, he's not going to be there foreve, I meant more in terms of the role. And I'm not totally convinced that Fairgame$ will be a dud. I am 65% convinced it will suck but there is part of me that is saying, 'hold on, let Jade cook.'
Big name brands sell very well. That is what Jim Ryan and co have realised. Maybe they should restructure and have a head of PlayStation business and then Herman Hulst do more for the gaming branch.
@NEStalgia honestly, I miss those days. I'm not one to wish on a person's unemployment but I'm hoping Jim's reign is ending soon and the future president of PlayStation can be a little more open with communication and more ambitious than whatever this crap is. If 'phoning it in' was personified, it would be the last few years of PlayStation.
@NEStalgia it's like they want to wait until (when?) to release big big VR games but really and truly, you should have them in there first and later adopters will buy those games. Start as you mean to go on Sony. I am not going to complain about this year because we've had some good releases for VR 2 but after that, who knows what's happening
The head haptics could be used to simulate wind and depending on where it's coming from, you know what direction to travel in. Honestly, GoT on VR NEEDS to happen. It makes too much sense.
And yeah regarding HL: Alyx I mean it did release on Quest 2 so that gave me hope but looking more into it, still only accessible through steam. Would honestly make me consider selling my headset and just getting a Valve Index just so I can play it.
Take notes Sony that's the importance of system sellers on your platform
@NEStalgia yeah that would be amazing, a fully open world game in VR. Honestly, just port something like GoT into VR and print some money
And yeah there's probably exclusivity contacts on those VR titles because we'd have definitely seen an announcement at the PlayStation showcase. I wonder if HL: Alyx will ever come
The show apple put on made me think Jim Ryan's PlayStation are trying to copy apple's mysterious, low communication vibe.
The reason why it works for Apple is because they annually put out a great show where they show off what they've been doing. Expensive or not, they've been innovating like crazy these last few years.
@NEStalgia an assassin's creed co-op looter shooter sounds like nightmare fuel. It would be a missed opportunity if they didn't make an immersive sim but it is very niche so understandable. It would be insane on Sony's part if this VR title didn't release on PSVR 2
@NEStalgia I thought it was gonna be a heist game at first and I was really excited but it just devolved into another rainbow 6 siege looking game
I think the next logical step for assassin's creed is to switch genre to an immersive sim. It seemed that's what they were working towards and then they went a different route after AC 3. It has all the ingredients for it
@NEStalgia yessss the first assassin's creed games including the Ezio trilogy had crazy controls but it just added so much to the immersion, gently pushing ppl so you don't stumble was an art in itself
@TheArt honestly, I have a hard time with all these games where running is the default. Of course in action games like GoT or Spider-Man it's okay but for games that feature a lot of indoor locations or are really immersive, you need to have toggles for speed
Hey come on now, one of the cool things about the HD series was the mobility. GTA IV did it best. Default is walking, hold x for a fast walk, slowly tap x for a jog and go ham on the X button for a sprint. Why do games have to be dumbed down
Hope GTA VI doesn't go full assassin's creed with the analog stick controls all the movement speed
@Impossibilium I think it's meant to be the accurate portrayal of a nerd like Peter Parker trying to sound angry or "bad". I liked it. Has heavy Naruto Shippuden emo Sasuke vibes
@Bez87 I think there are plenty cases where it makes sense but for me, I seriously would've Day 1'd something like this a few years back.
I know a lot of people that carry their tablets around just to do remote play while hotspotting with their phones so this would be an instant buy for them. Also as mentioned, it's great if you have 1 TV and it's constantly in use or you're on holiday away from PS5 or whatever.
@Korgon a small part of me can see it getting delayed to early 2024 but whatever was shown is not going to be exactly what the final game will be like.
The gameplay reveal missions for both predecessors played slightly different in the final game. And what was shown here is bound to be several months old
@Bez87 I see the vision for that, they're giving people more options. I for one loved remote play on my Vita. I hate playing games on my phone. The Project Q thing would be perfect for people like me if I had more time for gaming. These days I'm okay with sitting in front of my TV every now and then rather than gaming on the go.
@twinspectre90 I'm sorry but that was clearly being shown on the easiest difficulty. If you played on Ultimate or Spectacular difficulty on Spider-Man or Miles Morales you'd know the games AI is tough
@Tharsman I remember everyone loving the showcase. It was definitely the best showing when it was revealed. Remember the horde of zombies and them chasing you up the sawmill. The negativity only started when it got released and the buggy launch and reviews came in
@KidRyan yeah that's what I'm saying. Re-read what I wrote. If the show is delayed due to the writers strike then there is no rush for then to get the third game out before the season that portrays it releases.
And that's good because there's no way part 2 can fit into 10 episodes of television. Would be cool to see ND do sci-fi. That savage starlight rumour has been going since like 2014
@Old-Red yeah definitely, not just him it's also Herman Hulst. But look if no one is playing it, if we're literally in the minority, the few million people that play it then really and truly it's a waste of money for them. That kind of cash loss would lead to major problems for them
But on the other hand, they rake in billions so what's a little loss eh. Those games like puppeteer and tearaway and gravity rush are genuinely what capture people's hearts and make memorable experiences. Those games still come but without the polish and marketing but this is why you can't limit yourself to one console

Re: Square Enix Doesn't Think You've Seen Enough Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Gameplay
@KaijuKaiser personally I think the gameplay shown isn't anything different to what we've already seen. Just more combat, and it looks great
But yes some of the comments have exuded so much hatred towards the game 😂
