REALAIS

I will disappoint... I pre-order Ultimate edition. Shopto has sale now on, some of gift cards are with 16,7% discount 😀 And Diablo 4 is very fun game to me, especially after Loot rework.

@Nakatomi_Uk what world are you living in? TV and 1080p

As gameplay is important to game I can agree, but playing games with generic Teams/Players is not interesting for me. It is hard to break into Football because it is expensive to buy those licenses if those are not Exclusive in first place. Look at eFootball, buying up some Italian clubs and League name exclusively.

VRising Early access will start in 6th of June. I will be early to the party

@Solingo_Bill You don't get it.
Imagine you have Steam account your registered in your country. You invest money to buy games.. and then Sony releases great games and you are not allowed to buy them with your steam account.
Understandable that is small part of gaming community, but still those are 180+ countries/regions.

Most of Helldivers 2 playerbase has linked accounts, it is stated by Helldivers ex CEO.

@LordVile it is not having even 50% discount. 38% for couple times already. That game is kept Premium for as long as they can. Probably still is selling good enough to not give even for PS Extra.

@BigJoze Umderatand. But I don't mind this type of games. I rather jump into game time to time and continue to grow my garage rather than just get again New NFS soon after with meh Story telling and grind from zero back again. And there is evolution in game. They are experimenting with stuff which as they say will greatly give feedback for future NFS game/games.

I'm excited. I came back to game when they announced Year 2 plans, after not playing it for around 10 months. And it is great. Audi update bringed interesting couple cars and now BMW M3 Touring will go h2h with Audi RS6.
Game is awsome for arcade style street racing.

@BigJoze they alreade moved on. 95% of team was moved to next Battlefield.
This is passion project from few who probably was passionate enough to convince upper floors to continue to support this game with more content.

Already Pre-ordered. Blasting Diablo now, and will blast V Rising from 6th of June.
I am sold for this game and bought Complete Edition.
Shopto + PS Stars Cashback value = great price.

@BHPM you can create PSN account without problems in other countries/regions. It is just in Sony Terms of Service that they could terminate that PSN account if they wish. They are not doing that in real life. Many players are using PS5 consoles for decades like that.

I am coming from Latvia, now living in UK. And whenever you buy Xbox/Sony, you just pick which regions is easier to manage. UK, US, Finland, Germany are main ones that people choose. It depends with wich currency you are willing to deal, or you think will provide best choices for pricing/deals etc, buying gift cards for psn store etc.

@Fiendish-Beaver doubtfull. Helldivers is online only game. There is no reason to release Story type game on PC day one. It will not perform so good on PS5 if they will do that. If ever would Sony create their own Launcher on PC to avoid Steam 30% cut from all sales, then more likely they would bring to PC day one.

@Korgon it was already delayed. They said previously 3 months ago and 6 months ago, that they will earn around 7-8 billions from 2024 1st april till 2025 1st April. Now it is 5-6 billions prediction for same period.

@PerpetualBoredom stand where you want. Not I am calling other people as mentally ill. You are just ranting to me/others first. And then you play dumb and don't understand why I am negative towards you. You are not creating conversations, you are just callingpeople in bad wirds because they don't think same as you. Thank you

@PerpetualBoredom i am siding with common sense. Delusions are for you, maybe. Time goes forward and things changes. I am not buying Ubisoft games day one. I don't pretend that I care for Ubisofts physical releases. You really care what Ubisofts does? Best way to vote is vote with wallet, you don't like something what company does, don't buy it.

@PerpetualBoredom maybe read what it means first before you are throwing around big words.

I like all these online complaints. Most games are sold in digital versions. I buy only digital versions, I am one of those creating problems. As less people are buying physical copies, as harder it is to provide physical copies around the world. It gets more expensive aswell then.

Physical copies aswell has to be done very early to do shipping on time, and tends to need day one patches. It is easier to provide digital download closer to release date.

Yeah, I am bad guy for not ranting on Ubisoft for all of this, so you can take out your anger towards me too :●

@FuriousMachine you need to bring back your childhood play times, where your imagination created stories very easy

It will be polished, but that mtx is outrageous. If you want to enjoy all bits of game and it is priced over 1k £. Sims 5 will go Free to Play, it will get more creative to charge for anything small.
Look what they did with Sims 4, you want Animals? Ranch? Cool! 35£... but there is no horses. And no wonders, shortly after they released Horses dlc for another 35£.
50% discount is at max after longer periodnof time. Just milking Sims fans professionally

Increase price, increase revenue. Very happy.

@Godot25 in US it is 50/50

@WolfyTn It depends. Your situation provides option to have Quality mode with 40fps, rather than only 30fps for regular TV. I tried myself and it still wasnt good enough for me, I choose Performance mode and 60fps, because that is more comfortable for me.
If you can play game in quality mode without issues, than it would be best. Yes, it is old game and in close up there is no big difference, but quality mode shines in long distance rendering in Fallout 4 game.
I am 34 myself ) I am playing on Samsung S95B for 1,5 years. I am dreaming to upgrade to S95D in next 12 months

@Icey664 check Digital Foundry comparision video. There are some changes but in general, those changes are minimal. It is never promoted as remaster or remake. So there is not significant enough changes.

If PS5 is connected to 120hz TV, then Quality mode targets 40fps. Similar as it is in Sony 1st party games.
In general PS5 has all options available, only in Menu settings it is not clearly stated. I expect this update will provide clear info in menu settings.

@MikeOrator Game has still so many spicy costumes. I already finished and some of those outfits was too much. but I only got like 60% of those. Need to find all Cans to see how looks lingerie outfit

@TrickyDicky99 then maybe continue where do they make money

@TrickyDicky99 instal hoyoverse games on integrated graphics cards. You will be surprised what is possible.

@AdamNovice they are not officially. You will still be able to buy it there. Because it sells.

@TrickyDicky99 if you imply that those games will be poorly optimised, then for sure, it can be poor experience

@TrickyDicky99 you will be surprised what type computer can run those games in 1080p. Mister 99,9% PC player, but knowledge does not support that.

@Fatewalker when Steam will understand how multiplayer part will work, they will do the same. They don't want to be liable for wrongfully sold items on their store. That is big problem.

@TrickyDicky99 your comment is waste of time. Helldivers 2 playerbase is 75%+ on PC.
Sounds more that tou are salty, that you have to pay PS+ and PC don't.

Does someone is talking about that Ghost of Tsushima is refunding already Directors cut edition pre orders in those same 170+ countries from any retailer, because they can't sell game where multiplayer needs PSN account. Sony is ridiculous. And it is not only about Steam. That is from other stores already.

@EchoRange yeah, PC gamers should solve that issue with starving and dying. Such great idea.

@glennthefrog and then those players are using Finland, Uk, US or other regions to play. Which in general is breaking ToS. But if for all is only in mind how to earn a lot from every country then yeah, nothing will change. And people will strugfle with PSN linking in future, especially on PC. Ehere for example "special" regions can only create PSN Account through consoles PS4/PS5 itself. Don't have console, but want to play PC game? "Sucks for you"

I am embarresed for this all situation and most people stance in Pushsquare. You are entitled ones, living in major countries and don't even try to understand bigger picture.

You would rather see around 180-190 countries delisted from PSN required games than blame Sony for their lack to unite all gamers in the World. Sony should be ditching their archaistic PSN style and open it up for everyone no matter where they live and play.

Amd then there would be less outcry for that PSN account requirement. Make it to make sense rather just pat PSN active numbers and keep people hostage for playing game.

@LieutenantFatman Helldivers 2 discords mods even told that best way to deal with this situation is to leave steam reviews to give Arrowhead upperhand in talks with Sony.
Now fight is over, they can ammend it.

I dont get where is your pleasure to block this game around 190 countries in world if PSN requirement would go ahead.

People made their voices heard, people are going back to revert.

Dont blame players, blame the Game. It is Sony fault for not implementing PSN in the World for everyone.

@EchoRange what real issues? What is real issues to you? People has different needs and different problems.

@themightyant and you do, on consoles? I don't get why you blame PC users for that? Not all helldivers 2 players are playing games with predatory MTX. I dont get this hostile approach to PC users who are calling BS out.

@Flaming_Kaiser oh, thats how it works. Show fingers to something worse rather than improve existing?
Somehow Microsoft has PC Gamepass available in more countries than Xbox consoles has, but it doesnt matter, no?

@PsBoxSwitchOwner it is not hypocrisy from Sony? That those players have to break ToS just to play games? Sony easily takes money, but if something will not be up to Sony minds, they will easily choose to ban account by breaking ToS.

@Pat_trick Yeah, if you don't live in Top world country. Don't you dare even looking up to Consoles and how dare you even thinking about playing games. Go back to your cave.

It feels that Pushsquare and Playstation users are so entitled at the end. I look up in Youtube and nowhere I can find positive videos about Helldivers 2 linking issue. But here, in comments, 80% is blaming PC kids. Self-criticism is 0/10

@Nei @Nei Yeah, lets look at the game. "I like that game". Oh, I better don't buy that game, because it is illegal to play that game in around 190+ regions in the World by Publishers ToS

If you are community which doesn't do everything you are told, then you are kids. But when you accept and swallow everything, then you are real adult gamer. Don't ever say what you think. Just shut your mouth and do what you are told to do.

@starbuck2212 Yeah, you have to kneel before Sony for any reason they said so.

@Ainu20 what? If it would be like that, then there would not be Review Bombing. It happened because of review bombing and Steam pulled game out of 177 countries and started to issue refunds. Money talks.

@get2sammyb And better would be to cover lot more countries with regions. Microsoft especially created new regions for PC Gamepass. Country I am coming from, I can create official Microsoft PC account, but Sony not. Country which is 20 years in EU and 10 years with Euro. Same apllies to neighbour countries.
I can understand that Sony wants all online games under PSN. Even can use same PSN Support staff to resolve any games issues etc. But 69 regions ins total is not great at all. They need to evolve, change something to mainstream that. If I buy Playstation in my country I have to create UK, US profile in general, because of Language. It is easier to deal with English. Tho I now live in UK. UK account is natural for me.

@get2sammyb Why you have so much hate for that? In general why players would do that for 0 incentive? Why Sony didn't provide in game bonuses for that, like Ubisoft does. Why almost half of Europe can't create PSN region profile? Steam blocked game in 177 countries, and none of those were regionless Europe countries. It would be close to 200 if they would do that.
Sony wants only metrics for investors from that. They released BS reasoning for that.
Sony/arrowhead lied in face for that need. And that was huge reason it get more negativity. Who needs PSN account to ban cheaters and griefers? You are not in their shoes, PC players, and your negativity towards them is non less as their negativity for PSN account requirement.

When Sony doesnt even support most of European Union countries with dedicated regions. They should then abolish such Regional thinking if till now they can't create those or merge together.
