P/P/S:
Hopefully waiting for BM:W to go on sale during Chinese New Year🤞

"今年入围的游戏都很出色，可我真没搞明白这次年度游戏的评选标准是啥，我特么白来了！"
literally means -
Games all round are quite astonishing this year, but I really can't quite figure out what this year's goty selecting standard was, I bloody came for nothing!"

Somewhere in there he also mentioned that in general, many will only see results and then speak of the results. What I understand is he believes of their results with good confidence thus prepared the speech years prior, but alas disappointed that he couldn't share them.
Not really their fault if they're came what they aim for and everyone else telling them better than nothing only AFTER knowing the results.
For all we know the game was probably in good shape at that point in time otherwise it's hard to think to make a speech based only on a vertical slice.

The rest is neutral stance of calming/comfort the believers crowd and just instilling positive confidence and self-respect into everyone inclusive.

P/S:
From TGA's f.a.q. -
"voting jury (90%) and public fan voting (10%)"
Staggering amount of the former comes from the west, find out in there yourselves.

Game of the Year means nothing to me if I don't plan to play those games, I only play those that gives enjoyment and if said games happened to be new and got the nomination, good to know👌👏
Also, many like me just follow news and don't bother to vote, even sometimes like the polls here

Don't think they going to repeat same history/mistake again imo. I don't think it sold well enough previously to justify delaying to do cross-gen.
Mostly I'll give is a year before next-gen on 2026. Otherwise my interest and time will be lying elsewhere until it goes on sale 😐

@Jake3103
All the limited event content is very procrastination-friendly, no content dead-locks like a certain game I still play to date. However when Rinascita drops, I hope they keep it that way~

@themightyant
Yesterday's event last two stages was something alright~ Brute forced, gave up and told myself sweaty/skill issue then call it a day 🧂🧘

Not a Honkai player but the first time I saw that new location I'm like - isn't that Rinascita? What's going on 🤣

At first I genuinely thought it was Need For Speed 😂
For someone whose' last entry was Hot Pursuit 2010, this ticks all my boxes vibe-wise so will keep an eye for sure~ 🏍️💨

I remember my first time seeing this of that protag fighting the dragon inside a vibrant ruins, reminded me of the cinematic feel of Deep Down.
Kept it under my radar ever since~ 🧡

I've always find it funny that even certain f2p games have even made it physical after release 😂

One way of them already try to discourage trading games is doing sales as fast as possible, that way it would be more competitive than what it used to. (could we complain about half-glass empty 🤷)
I mean, physical is just a means for trading, if they make digital sharing ecosystem better, won't doubt many would have a change in perspective. A Way Out is a prime example, something I'd always think of.
In terms of preservation, they are already doing that with Plus Premium.

At least they are still doing their part, regardless of what this community have in their minds~

"But it's clear... " I ain't read all the yapping in the rest no offense 🗣️✋

Keep in mind, physical media and disc-based media are two separate things.

Honestly haven't installed on the Pro despite playing Nikki on it rn 😅
Still going through the hollow tvs event on my potato phone fr 🤳

Jumping into next update would certainly be a visual feast🤞

That's uh .. 2 years old of that embedded video right there ..

Anyways, could look at these updates as a sort of NG+ either ways 🤷

If I'm right about CDPR, they would most likely market the Pro patch alongside their Netflix sequel.
Didn't buy the expansion on Black Friday due to that personal hunch.
Seems regrettable of them going the Witcher delay route, well, whatever.
Ciri cameo is too much to ask I guess 💔

@naruball #6 Well said~ 🤝

Don't forget about the redemption codes! - for the ones that's playing.

I'm kinda excited to see how this month's gacha revenue looks like 👏💦
Also, I doubt Digital Foundry would cover it but if they would, colour me surprised 😏

Oh and uh, Nikki's not on PS4 btw.

"It's completely free, so you don't need to pay." 😶
What do you mean? We're paying our time to watch ads on both platforms, to buy more products.. 💳 🕳️

Mindblown

Ananta's real competitor is officially not NTE now, .. but against all the pioneers 💥

Scary 😳

Granted NTE have its own supernatural charms, but if I'm being brutally honest, Mugen is really going to wuther some waves~

That last clip at the end of 30th anniv reel must be a tease of something 👀

Waiting for the day when physical media won't be disc-based no more, since almost every game will have patches at the end of the day~
Save the need for detachable drive moving forward, really.

Infinity Nikki 👉 无限暖暖 👉 Limitless Coziness ✨

clear throats

Can't wait for another Tencent-backed banger next year 🔥

kek🤭

Without Tencent, Wukong would just be a black myth.

@themightyant They just might not know a hidden gem among gacha games, in our experience.
Incessant yappings is the only reason Sammy, me and many others don't show ourselves around here. 🍿
For them, this is their end-game content, if you catch my drift~ 👋

And all this happening on NTE's closed beta 👀

What a week for attack of the clones 🤣

🤫🤝🤑

In other news , Nintend...

Color me interested 👍

Now, Xbox should go port Hellblade II, while Sony port Stellar Blade 🤝

I'm pretty sure Moritam and Horizon collab will do way better than Lego X Horizon did 🤭

Don't take me seriously 😆🤛

Some of them were introduced to Extra, I wished Sony would do the same the other way round so that anyone can have Extra access to the old essential titles 👉👈

Thanks for the heads up @get2sammyb 🤝
I can't wait to see what this game holds in the gacha space genre, since we're not pulling for characters or powercreep 🐳
If ShiftUp wants to make more dress-up in their game, I'm definitely wouldn't mind ~

Hoping it's a new IP involving portals.🤞

Reminds me of Francis Sinclair board from RDR2, been wanting something like that.. only one can dream ✨

Concord meets Snowbreak? 😆

I would be lying if I said I didn't bought the Pro for this and Nikki.
Also, all the BF deals right now is already tempting for my limited time 😫 despite late to the current-gen party~ 😄

Am finishing up Kingdom Hearts III this few days before connecting back online✌️
Have to say the mandatory fights gets so repetitive that I hope KH4 would tone it down for one sitting story peeps.
Will be getting into Dying Light after cleaning up Ochkanatlan after next couple of weeks🤞

Guys, this is literally an unfair comparison when it took them 11 months or so to downgrade a PS4 rendition, versus just a meagre of 2 weeks to downgrade the PS5 Pro version. 🍿

I'd say let them cook~

@get2sammyb
If Mugen comes out before Tsaritsa, it'll be nigh impossible to keep up. In the meantime, just indulge in the addiction 🥴

We'll never know what was the story behind Jenshin Switch edition now won't we?

Added late context: Given how similar it resembles Zelda entry at the time, it never materialised after being announced. Nothing happened towards Square's Foamstars. However Palworld's success just happened to be the last nerve for Nintendo, in my opinion.
If it's ain't good, let the public boycott. Otherwise, oh boy, ready the big guns.
Always the same story everywhere everytime, even into the future 🍿

Manifesting for the obligatory "not for me" comments any day now👂

Apex is that you?

@themightyant
Interesting insight, my experience was unpleasant at the starting regions and then came as natural soon as the lame inside jokes wears out.

And don't forget, "What is it, what is it? **gasp** Is it another Paimon? what a Catch!"

Oh, Ray Chase as 4.2's host? 👌👍

@Bunchesopuppies
I'm genuinely curious, switching audio resources just because of Paimon-intolerance?

Be missing out on all the english talent there buddy 🤷

🤔 TTS as a placeholder would probably not be ideal but it's something worth testing

Can't believe Ajaw was also affected but not emergency food 😏

Can't wait to bathe in ad panels at a random Cyberpunk alley and blinding myself in HDR mega-nits. ✨🤩

Swore Rainy irl pic looked so familiar and then went to find out she's from the Sanctuary Netflix series that I watched. An ah moment.

The photo mode looks to me just model animations on loop in limited functionality.
I hope all the cast have very unique ones that can be used everywhere in the world with context sensitive animations 🤞✨

@TheElectroFunky
It's not entirely your ages' fault, moreso by the internet exposure that was driven from your lifetime searches and whatnot.
Complex topic, basically you don't see much things from the other side of the sphere and vice versa.

I'm a millennial myself then came to learn of the existence of ACG culture, while many others grew alongside it.

Just like in Netflix, we get Korean action thrillers to huge variety of ACG contents that was never offered in the west, or to some limited capacity.

Anyway, you get the gist.

Like @get2sammyb had said before, always don't have to spend a penny on these offerings let alone being a wallet whale. Usually those who do so are doing for content creation career. Most of the time them content creators are entertaining on their own, it just creates community surrounding these games as a whole.

Anyways, sometimes I do feel like I'm out of place here because of the age differences, culture, and where these readers come from.

Also sometimes, when readers get political or very subjective just couldn't wrap my head around it.

More importantly is to have fun and spread happiness rather than doom and gloom all the time ready at every opportunity ✌️

@PsBoxSwitchOwner
Oh thanks for explaining that, I've only log in if I'm likely to leave a comment
I figure if I'm not logged in, could still see the whole shebang though, yes?
Can't say that feature is useful for myself particularly 😄

Overall it was good, everything in there is fresh for me until I step into current-gen.
I'm excited and terrified at the same time for the coming year.

Have mercy on those exclusives lurking in the shadows 🙏

Here low-key wishing for Mirror's Edge Raymastered or the next entry🤞

The other day I was logging in to Quidditch which blatantly required creation of WB account.
Batted an eye is all I did since the process is seamless and didn't require any input from me.

Anyhoo, Resident Evil and many others did about the same process and you could always toggle them in settings but that doesn't mean corps don't collect any metadata.

I'd be more wary of giving data to gacha companies which potentially could be very questionable than others.
Who's to say this partnered sites doesn't mine our data for all the data hungry corps?
Food for thought.

Pushsquare members: High key hoping for more last-gens remasters

Also me: Low key hoping for more current-gen remasters ✨with PSSR✨

😅

@themightyant 🤝
Guilty of this because as like you, for me didn't have much time on PushSquare 😅

Combined with their reddits counterparts and whatnot, holy time sink 😱

Personally, I'm scared to imagine what's gonna happen after Nikki comes out~

Here's hoping we can burn bridges with gacha games one day~ 🤜🤛

@AverageGamer
Not an average comment not gonna lie~

No doubt people who cared bought their first PS5 🌱 for that reasons [#15] from their last console, just as what the PS5 Pro offers~
What an unspoken predicament if I do say so myself 🤫👌
