SoulsBourne128

About time we got news about this game lol last time we heard anything about it was probably back in 2019 or 2020. The game looks very promising. Hoping this turns out to be atleast a decent souls-like (and hopefully not an unfairly frustrating one unlike say, Lords of the Fallen).

I hope it ends up being decent. From the looks of it, I just hope it pays respect to the original source material given the possible new setting.

Love how Diablo 4's is just christmas related pngs on top of the game's cover art lol

All of this wouldn't have happened have they just made it into a normal MP add on mode like with Ggost of Tsushima Legends but I'm guessing due to Sony's emphasis on GaaS, the project was too ambitious for its own good. It's a shame because I would have love ro play the game's combat against or with friends.

The more I see a lot of these new LotR games fail, the more I start to think about the cancelled Whute Council game and how awesome it could have been.

@GamingFan4Lyf same can be said with unlocking new characters. Buying new characters that should have been at launch will ever be as satisfying as unlocking characters in Smash Bros Brawl.

First avatar, then king kong, now walking deas. Is Nick All Star Brawl 2 the pnly good game they have?

I still wonder what's taking them so long to add actual new PS2 games. I'm glad we're getting new PSP and PS1 games, but still...

Though nice to see Thrillbille again. I remember playing off the rails a lot as a kid on my wii. Kinda surprised to see that the psp version is kind of the same as the cpnsole version, which is great because I was worried that it was the same as the terrible DS port.

For once, a rare Elon win IF he actually keeps his word.

But then again, this Elon we're talking about, a man child who constantly makes the worst changes on Twitter because one or two people made fun of him.

From what I have heard as well, the infamous "no russian" scene is a step down from the original, and felt more like a glorified cutscene. It definitely feels activision went for a safer route for this game, at the cost of making it boring than the og MW3.

Yikes, this is NOT a good sign. This is what people feared about the use of AI.

Aside from being yet another extraction shooter (remember Hyenas), it's really just another sign of the live service struggle Sony is going through.

Please, just let this game to rest. There are alrrady rumors of a Black Flag remake. At this point, why even have skulls and bones now?

If that's true Sony then where's our PSVR games from China Hero Project? We haven't gotten a single new VR game from that since the first batch and the only one that's still in development might as well be cancelled. It's a shame too because flaws aside, I did have an enjoyable time with the PSVR and even met some new friends. The fact that they coudln't even bother giving us a PSVR2 port for Dreams before they dropped the game still leaves a mark.

That, and I'm still salty for the lack of backwards compatibility. If the PS5 can do it with (most) PS4 games, why can't the PSVR2 with PSVR games?

Happened with Naughty Dog too. I just hope it doesn't lead to the closure of the developers...

Atleast Gollum had some budget with the voice acting. This game feels like a steam shoverlware sold for $40 lol

Actually rare to see anime songs used for anime games. They usually have to compose new songs instead of using ones from the anime probably, so this is a pleasent surprise.

Also, haruka kanata too? INSTANT BUY.

I recall there were rumors of Sony working on another souls-like exclusive. Hope it isn't Rise of the Ronin as I really want them to have another Bloodborne, specifically a metroidvania one as RotR is open world.

Reminds me of Transformers Devastation. Damn, I miss that game a lot...

It's really sad to see the state that Factions is in. I really enjoyed TLoU1's Factions mode so I was looking forward for the sequel's spin on the multiplayer feature.

The one good thing to come out form this is that hopefully, Sony will realize their view on live service games just isn't enough and will instead focus on single player games with or without multiplayer add ons (that aren't necessary to enjoy the base game like GoT Legends). Still, a shame to see. Whether yoy like TLoU2 or not, you have to admit that the combat itself is really solid and I would have loved to try it out in co-op or PvP.

I'd be glad if it's not Returnal 2 cause I really want to see what other wild new idea they'll cook up soon. I just know it's gonna be hard as nails and I'm so down for it.

I still keep forgetting that this game was a thing lol

There's a clear difference between multiplayer and live service games. Instead of focusing an delivering us fun chaotic games that we can all enjoy with or without friends, they are all too focused on planning roadmaps, microtrnsactions, multiple currencies, lootboxes, battle passes, etc. Not every multiplayer game need to last more than 5 years. They just need to be good enough to ensure more people to keep playing it. Before the servers were closed, I had way more fun with Killzone 2's and Uncharted 2's multiplayer than with mostbrecent live service games, and those didn't need to last that long to be enjoyable. Just a few dlcs and add-ons are good enough.

The one live service idea that Sony could atleast tackle on is bringing back Playstation Home.

@MagisterMagi aren't there rumors of Naughty Dog working an rpg or Santa Monica making a scifi rpg? I'd take any of those than a KOTOR remake at this point.

Can someone please upload that gif of spiderman saying "good riddance"?

Callisto protocol being offered for ps plus before a year has passed and after many articled adressing the commercial failure of the game is kinda funny, I will admit.

It's a shame that the only one in the hunting genre that's still alive and kicking is monster hunter as always. God Eater, Toukiden, Soul Sacrifice, sadly not many of them have managed to meet a similar stride as MH. The only exceptiom is dauntless but I barley hear anyone talking about it. Plus, revamping the game's systems to force the player to constantly grind for somewhat minimal upgrades put me off.

Yeah, this lineup isn't doing it for me. Largely more of a FF14 fan so I'm not interested in another mmo at the moment. Not interested in the new saints row game either. I might give generation zero a shot out of curiosity but I doubt I'll be playing it for a long time lol i am kinda surprised that it has been receiving a lot of updates though. One of those few rar elive service games that's still alive for some reason.

Love the style. Though I'm usually iffy on multiplayer PSVR2 games. Not because they're bad but because unless tehy're firewall, their online activity could dwindle at any time to the point of having the possibility of a server shut down, due to how niche the PSVR still is in the gaming market. A shame cause there are some pretty good multiplayer psvr games. Sadly, not many of them managed to mainting a healthy playerbase.

I'm convinced they're doing this to make Playstation look bad by comparison to Xbox, which you can already play Red Dead through backward compatibility with higher resolution and framerate (and at a cheaper price too).

I'm fine with that. Better to not hold the game back because of last gen consoles.

Really saddens me that it's just now that Sony is fully acknowledging the game. At this point, what does it gotta take to finally convince them to port the game to PS5 and PSVR2? The latter especially.

Considering one of the earlier projects was Project X which was similarly billed as an action chinese epic but was sadly cancelled, I'm glad that sony asia didn't quickly abandoned the concept and saved it for the later batches and from what I have heard, my time at portia was pretty good, though seeing them go from a simulation rpg to a hack and slash one could be a bit risque. Then again, same thing happened with F.I.S.T. and that one ended up surpriisngly solid, so who knows?

I was sorta expecting this to happened. Last time I played, there was a severe lack of balance with some of the mechas, and the map layouts aren't as well designed as Overwatch's (or heck, even Paladins'). Another thing I didn't like was how you were forced to be thrown on random modes, as the game didn't let you choose the mode you want. It really made the game just tedious to play, which is a shame because I could see potential here.

Also, because the game didn't have that many support mechas, the whole "team synergy" just didn't work here, especially when the game gives little explanation on which mecha does well.

From the looks of it, probably gonna be based on the new season.

I honestly just hope it's made by a competent developer. Don't want another mediocre 2v2 arena fighter like knights of britannia lol

I presuming they're making this in case Skulls and Bones fails lol

Why not just make a Black Flag sequel?

Not gonna lie, I didn't even know the game even released months ago. I put the blame on how poor the game's marketing was.

The PFPs are okay but eh, something about them look off to me lol I am kinda surprised that Tchia though, and I really do like the wallpaper. Surprised to see Zeus and Locoroco there.

I'm just disappointed we haven't seen any cars. Vehicular combat has always been the heart of the franchise. I'm fine with TLoU tv show not using too many infecteds, but for TM? It's just not the same without vehicular.

Honestly, I'm fine with them adding Siren 2 to PS Plus Premium as well as Blood Curse (with all the episodes). It's the best they could do because I highly doubt Jim Ryan would be interested in bringing back the franchise, depsite the resurgance of horror games right now.

I was surprised that they never bothered to give another update to one of their China Hero Project games. Hell, Pervader is the only PSVR game that's still in development and IS part of the program. Would have been a better time to announce it instead of giving us another VR shooter.

"Scifi PvP first person shooter"

I swear, if this is the kind of innovation Sony is striving for its live service games, then I'm not interested lol at this point, just give us a live service ps all stars game or a Ps home alternative. Not every live service need to be PvP shooter games.

Genuinely makes me wish Forspoken took a somewhat more linear approach to begin with instead of settling for a tired open world approach.

"Modern day robin hood"

So it's literally just Hood Outlaw and Legends but as a shooter? Good to know that Sony automatically saw this as innovative, I guess.

@Fuzzymonkeyfunk That's actually on point. It was varied. Just not the kind of variety we were expecting from Sony themselves. Especially due to how scarce the first party content was. No PSVR first party game, no news on Sony bend's new project, no update on TLoU2 nor Horizon multiplayer, nothing from Bluepoint, etc.

I'm still disappointed with the catalogue of PSVR games that were shown. Did we really need a trailer for crossfire, beat saber and arizona sunshine 2 when they could have been shown at any point after the showcase?

Also, out of the 5 psvr games, only one wasn't a shooter game. So much for variety I guess.

God I love these fake leaks. Sometimes they can just make my day for the wrong reasons lol

It's not even a sequel anymore. It's just free-to-play Overwatch 1 with a new exclusive patch lol

I'm guessing it's to raise more the HL's sales, which is funny because the game, like it or not, was a breakout hit, with already a sequel possibly underway too. Literally what's the point of this lol
