Re: With the Steam Deck Announced, This Is What a Next-Gen PSP Could Be

RavenWolfe81

I reserved a Deck and a big part of why is because Sony are putting their games on Steam. I don't think we need a next-gen psp now but I used to really want one. What I want is for Sony and Valve to work together to make sure PS Studio games have a preset config to get the best experience on the handheld.

Sony won't have to go through the money and time to create a next gen handheld but can still focus on selling their games in a new market.

Re: Poll: Does Sony Need a Big PS5 Showcase This Summer?

RavenWolfe81

They need a big show whether that's soon or at a PSX later in the year but if they plan to do that, they should announce it. They're out of touch with a lot of the community that's getting tired of their current strategy and announcing an event would negate some of that. People want to see games that matter in the bigger picture.

Re: Sony Fans Bicker Over Ghost of Tsushima PS5 Paywall

RavenWolfe81

They could have just hide the charge for improvements in the expansion, charge $30 "for it" and let PS5 owners with just the base game have the improved version minus the expansion for free. Then when players buy the expansion, Sony would get their money anyway. Yea some would say the expansion isn't worth $30 but that's just more of a personal opinion. The bad optics could have been avoided, lol.

Sony is getting cocky and dumb again.

Re: Reaction: Messy Ghost of Tsushima Upgrade Makes PS5 for the Payers

RavenWolfe81

I don't mind paying to upgrade from the PS4 version to the PS5 since it has an expansion and improvements. I don't expect them to have to do any of that for free. It's just crazy that if you don't own it already, you'll have to pay $70 straight up.

I bought the game on sale so I'll be in it at between $55-60 or something all together but you'd think Sony would have done it like Sack boy, $50 and $60. That $10 means more to some people than Sony realizes.

Then again Nintendo can repackage Wii U games and sell 20+ million copies at $60. What tf do I know.

Re: Abandoned Trailer App Delayed Yet Again, This Time to August

RavenWolfe81

I guarantee you someone has asked him to all but kill this until people start to forget or lose interest. Then we'll see it at Gamescom or The Game Awards, something like that. There's no way the dude can go forward with the original plan of how this whole experiment was meant to be after all that has happened.

Re: PS5 Game Abandoned Now Proving Its Outsourcing Studios Exist

RavenWolfe81

I always want to believe but rarely actually do. I want to believe but now I think it's not Kojima, Silent Hill or an indie game from a small dev outsourcing assets from a AAA asset farm when all they have made is an early access Steam game that rips at Fatal Frame, that came out end of 2020 that noone has heard of.

Idk what to believe. I can't even believe Sony thought this is the guy we want the next No Man's Sky from.

Re: This Abandoned and Blue Box Game Studio Thing Is Getting Out of Hand

RavenWolfe81

Why does it have to be Silent Hill? Hasn't there been a rumor of a remake of MGS for quite some time? Kojima did some blatant MGS referencing in the Death Stranding DC trailer, I mean MGS music was in it and I doubt Sony wants to get sued. So it could be a hint of some deal with Konami and Sony for MGS games and I could easily see it being revealed in the Director's Cut, if we're just making stuff up based on vague clues.

Didn't BBgames themselves say Abandoned was a cinematic survival game? They didn't say survival horror. MGS has been a cinematic survival game since Snake Eater.

Re: Hideo Kojima Fans Investigate PS5 Exclusive Abandoned, Reads Like Conspiracy Theories

RavenWolfe81

The studio's Twitter has said the BLUE in their name stands for something that isn't the color, as in B.L.U.E. Whoever guesses it gets early access to its alpha and people are guessing blue for PlayStation which does not really fit but the account said someone's close and they'll announce a winner in 24 hours. Yea, something's happening, even if its just one Turkish man's publicity stunt.

Re: Poll: Did E3 2021 Suck?

RavenWolfe81

Overall, yes it did but Nintendo did great and were focused on the near future for once. People singing Xbox praise but they mostly had cgi, including a cgi trailer to announce they had nothing to announce about a sequel that surprised no one. Xbox needs to be careful revealing games so early or they'll end up the house of vaporware.

Re: Bethesda Apologises to PS5, PS4 Fans 'P*ssed' at Exclusivity

RavenWolfe81

I think then you shouldn't sell out if platform exclusivity sucks so bad but I get it. Some businesses deals make sense for the people involved and PlayStation has always been third-wheel to Bethesda's relationship to PC and Xbox.

All a non-issue to me because I'd still probably play their games on PC anyway but the fact they sympathize with PS only gamers is interesting.

Re: Reaction: Xbox Game Pass Is the Thorn in PS5's Side

RavenWolfe81

I'd still rather buy a physical copy of a game. Those exist still which editorials like this across many websites today seem to have forgotten. Sure, I like Gamepass for indies that are digital only. The devs probably make more money with a Gamepass deal.

I think games like Destiny or The Avengers should just be on a service like that but something like Returnal or Ratchet & Clank I'd much rather have a copy of. Gamepass can't do that. I hate how gaming media tries to push everyone in a singular direction.

Also, Nintendo - right now - is tops globally and can they afford to copy Gamepass? No. Will they abandon physical media? No. There can exist different models.

Re: Talking Point: Did Sony Lie About PS5?

RavenWolfe81

I don't think they lied at the time they said they believed in generations, I think they changed their minds this year due to a lot of people who want these games not being able to get a PS5. And I'm not saying that they're doing this for fan service like they alluded to today, it's more a revenue thing.

If the majority of God of War fans are still on PS4 because they can't get a PS5 but want to play the sequel and would buy it if they could, well you probably should sell to them.

I don't care myself, as a PS5 owner. As long as I get the occasional showcase title, then I'm not upset. I just want to know what exclusives are coming. I assume they're all 3rd party this year after R&C.

Re: Biomutant (PS4) - The Classic Case of What Could Have Been

RavenWolfe81

Reminds me of Fable both in ambition and how polarizing it is. Only this game actually attempts to deliver on its grand ambitions instead of outright cutting most of them. I know a lot of people hate the Fable games but I loved all three. If any game gets me to buy an Xbox, it'll be the new one. So I'll still try this game.

And I'm not saying that I'm going to love the game for sure and agree with PSU or AOTF before even playing it. It reads like a 6 or 7/10 to me but I'd also rate plenty of games I've had fun with the same, like most PS3 Ratchet games, Jak 2 and 3, Uncharted 1, The Order 1886, Dragon Age 2, Fable 3, Just Cause games, etc.

Re: Poll: How Excited Are You for This Summer's Gaming Events?

RavenWolfe81

I'm expecting big stuff from Sony and I think Microsoft will show a lot of stuff that won't release until 2023 at earliest, but it will be nice to see. I think this E3 is most important for Nintendo. I know the cult expects every game on their wishlist to be shown and have release dates for later this year but... yea. I don't even have faith that Botw 2 will release this year and without hardware that can run it at least at 1080p60 natively, I'll probably skip anything they show. But yea Sony will hit us with some surprises, for better or worse, idk.

Re: Technical Issues Restrict Biomutant to Just 1080p, 60fps on PS5

RavenWolfe81

I don't care, I'll still enjoy it. My worry is that people think this a AAA game but it isn't. It won't be very polished or have the fastest patches for fixes. It's a small team making something more ambitious than anything Ubisoft would be brave enough to do. I'm betting this will be a rewarding game with a ton of jank.

Re: Leaked Document Reveals Xbox's Opinion of The Last of Us 2

RavenWolfe81

I get why they do this, it's smart but the actual conclusion they draw is dumb. It's not bad gunplay, it's different. Ever since Halo 4, Microsoft has been all about a more standardised feel and control scheme for shooters and it's bad for the industry. Not every game has to feel like COD or Gears and Microsoft thinks they should, they even changed Halo and it was a big mistake.

Different is good. I'd rather play something experimental like Splatoon and use gyro controls even, than play another game that feels like COD or Gears.
