Sure took EA a good while than Hogwarts Legacy.

Is the narrative of peeps playing a remastered version of these renditions without knowing it Day One still on-going? 🤭
Personally, didn't get on these games yet not until I get a 699 in my hands 🌱🌱

All of the intern-kuns working on remasters while boomer veterans working on live services. Sounds about right 👍

I must be out of loop to miss this, will watch it later after the dailies. Thanks @get2sammyb

@themightyant
Does feel that way here, Hollow is getting pretty daunting to deal with after a while. Crammed deadlines are usually the culprits for Hoyo games. What others do you play by the way?

PS5 community: Can't wait to see extra blades of grass 🌱

PS5 Pro community: Can't wait to see more strands of hair👌

Pushsquarians: Can't touch them grasses and losing hair over every kerfuffle 🤨

Brainrot living rent free is beautifully amusing. ✨🍿

In regards to all-digital doom-posting, I urge you to come back after next-generation launches.

I'd more than happy to see my disc drive to be reusable for next-gen. . . unless ... you're not?

Ray tracing is expensive, but PS5 Pro is still cheaper at 699. 👌

PS4 mains, it's time.

That's right, no one knows we exist. Let's keep it that way. Carry on ..🍿

Sammy, PSN is a live service that everybody use.
No point going any further my chad 🤫

Live service is amazing in the right hands 🤝

Not sure what's with Predecessor rebranded from Paragon and its changes that differentiated them apart, after from what I remembered was a long hiatus..

For this case, don't know how the project can be salvaged at this particular time, given even going free model together with characters recast going forward..

At least the developers will be given a second chance moving forward is my take on all this, whatever they will be working on next 🤞

@naruball

How could you forget Infinity Nikki, I'm fairly disappointed.

Live service for people like you and me is known for content delivery, instead of some stereotypical genre.

My days with live service multiplayer ended with Overwatch and started with that pepega live service SP, Jenshin Impact.

Needless to say, trends are very volatile when the games made today, might probably age like milk, 8 years later.

But hey, one thing that always age like fine wine is the schadenfreude pick-up lines👌

General population at large: Unprecedented! 👀

Gacha gamers: First time? 🤓

Also me: This Changes Everything!

Actually all I could see is a ripped man with very nice shoes is low-key flexing on his love for Lego sets 💪🤳

Real question, would Quidditch sell better than Conc...

🙏Just jesting 😅, I'm down to taste testing everything except the sim

Things I'm okay with:
1. If the digital games price revamp and more frequent addition/subtraction to Plus benefits
2. Option to upgrade 🎮
3. Forward compatibility disc drive (cross-gen)
4. Identical pricing as launch slim models
5. Bring back PS Plus Collection for newcomers + more for everyone
6. More quality live service games
7. 🤭

Things to look out :
1. Better and frequent showcases without cramming hype (🙅 overwhelm & underwhelm)
2. Let us choose our own PS Plus Essential titles (e.g. 3/5 selector)
3. Try not to gate-keep DLCs especially / next-gen games from current-gen through marketing contracts under pretense of technological divide if can be helped
4. Don't be afraid to try new things/genres with expendable income, as a company

These would be my genuine feedback.
Now let me go back and read some of the comments 🍿🍿
ㅤ

@Enuo selector runs for another 40 days, take all the time you need

As for me, it's C3 Flame Mane and C0 Forrest Ranger. Got my yearly Zombie quota out of the way from Mualani banner 💩🌊

End of Service? out of the blue didn't see this one coming NGL
Had always remembered this first and foremost an MMO than a Jenshin contender.
Project Mugen on the other hand ...

In other news, Nikki has gained yet another million of grown men since PushSquare's article, easy does it 💪👍🤭

Seems like era of AAAA has just really begun 👏

Not gonna lie. Kind of impresses me knowing that a lot of those same people are playing Love and Deepspace.

🤭

That Furina music in the BG I just can't 😂

I don't think an article like this will go well with dwellers on the site here because they are not real fans ahem ahem - I mean 4 years of lost context within the sphere.
Evolution taken place when people gave positive feedback over the course of the game they love turned into not-so-positive feedback.
They produced multiple games and at the same time mails in-game surveys (more than every game in the industry, with total clarity of the issues of the game events listed upfront somehow) ... goes ahead and repeat/design those pitfalls.

Every casual gamer has their limits.
QOL on that/their other game doesn't even compare, yes?
I would only say, before all these debacle ended, the team done suspicious things in tldr.

The most important thing is . . . It's not "Dev Listened".
It's "Devs Learned". That's all to it 👋
ㅤ

The ray tracing in that trailer is so good that I don't know what I'm looking at 😂

Feels like yesterday (2018) when I bought my Pro just for MHW.

Impeccable timing once again, Capcom ✨

Came here & stop by because Indiana Tunes was playing in my head as I saw this article 🎶

Best live service impression?
MH Wilds.

imo, people who isn't acquainted w/ ZZZ will be just as confused of that teaser at the end ngl.

Jenshin news on Xbox bewildered me.

Overall, only Infinity Nikki and Wilds are already right up my alley.

yes.

Also ngl, news to me this isn't current gen exclusive since I've been eyeing this one since first debut.

I've yet to experience current gen let alone worry about storage issues 👉👈 can't help but wonder if GTA6 would top the storage charts once again 🤔

Just so we're clear, both they're live service games.

If we're talking about ''that'', everyone oh so worried about how much revenue cod are losing out/sustainability instead of their real long term strategy of revenue making before making bank on another sequel after the milk runs out . . . just mind boggles me.
Comparing a chocolate factory versus a diamond artisan.
Both equally successful in their own way.

MS bought Bethesda & the likes and let's be honest, they had plans like these coming after contractual obligations fulfilled. They bought the company and it's resources, so it's fair game for their money.

TL;DR: too much speculating in some comments from T2's one neutral remark.

At the end of the day,
only they have their own financial revenue, we can only speculate.

On a side note, I'm looking forward to Tomb Raider news without unhinged expectations.

Proud to be that 25 %.

People always want the Neuvillette of all things and bench every obsolete unit "by their standards".

When significant amount still using decade old Oppa Xiangling until Natlan comes out, either or the contents inevitably power creep the units.

I will say, .. not every investment always brings value.
Whether that value comes late on, you can always look back and say, '"hey why would I need a PS6 this soon when I could still run medium Ray Tracing on The Witcher 4?"

Ahem anyways, yes price reduction will always definitely happen if the competitors wills it.

Originally a PVE expansion to Part II would do fan service very well, but I guess they tried too hard to find success in capitalizing beyond single player baseline audience.

They still could, just with a better unique new IP that could showcase their live service/vision novelty.

Ooff.. I honestly miss Gravity Rush 2's live service aspect.
Enjoyed those fun little treasure huntings.
ㅤ

All I see is Star Rail with realistic graphics and big bad looking bosses

Rip to those cursed to make this game happen

Imagine if the expedition 33 broke the turn-based at the end to break the fourth wall

@get2sammyb
Nice touch with that PTSD on He Who Must Not be Named haha

Or should I say also ... she who must not be named . . .

I'm hopeless hreheeh :'P

It'll release next year, trust me bro.
ㅤ
They could've found an in with the live service way imo, Star Citizen and NMS, even Genshin could..

If they had so much content like they said..

LSA left most people the impression of combat foremost, not the story. Story can always be continued in a live service way, not another 5 years mind you!

When done right, with their scale of ambition I don't think it cannot be done.
Most games market them in Part 1 into Part 2 to make cash, doesn't always mean it's always going to be one-and-done or waiting for another full blown sequel.

They are indie, they can be flexible. It's not corpa.

That being said, PS5 Pro could not be a better time for it to ride along with.

hhmm, what makes a souls a souls experience?

Come to think of it, I've always treated my gacha games as a ''souls experience'' (if you will), and how is that even souls you might ask..?
If I must explain, well, resources. They come and go if you're not prudent. Skill whereas can manifest in different forms, not just reaction, but understanding of the landscape.
Now if someone comes along with the obligatory ''g word", then clearly didn't read between the lines on how some of us play our games.

Food for thought!

Just adding (very, very late) this here, Elden etc is considered a live service at least to me. Traditionally, games as a service is heavily reliant on 'version updates', and nowadays, even offline games are going to be semi-live, just not to the degree of No Man Sky .. just yet.
Live service is very prevalent in everyone's lives, in fact, so to speak.

@Savage_Joe
Now that reminds me of what GenDesign and Kojima is cooking on the other end, and when can we finally get a look-see

Certainly do! Doesn't hate them though.
Bloodborne might the only one I ever gone through and enjoyed, and that's fine, because I know I'm more of a gacha gamer than anything else.
If the Phantom Blade Zero I've seen feels anything near like Zenless Zone Zero, I'd welcome it any day.

It's good for the rewards you get compared to other similar genre, especially on anniversaries updates like this.
It's not free lunch is the only downside (events grind), but hey, it's enough for me to keep me playing it.
Each to it's own, always.
@BIG3

Wished Kuro devs would support PS4 rendition because UE can be very flexible if they want it to.
There's a whole audience like me still waiting on that, waiting to jump from Pro to Pro.
Granted, it would take time and expertise for every patch porting but it should be profitable if there is ongoing demand from the get-go.
Personally, I'd still hold this opinion even when I do get a Pro.
