Re: Rejoice! Joe's Diner Has Gotten a PS5 Patch

SoulsBourne128

@darkswabber From what I have read, the idea is that you are on a night shift, tasked to keep the diner tidy all while those spirits terrorize the place. Is a good concept but the execution is rather weak. It's mostly trial and error, and it's barely even scary. It's like it's trying to be like FNAF, but fails to understand what made that game successful.

Regardless though, it's a lot better than the dev's previous game, that's for sure.

Re: Ubisoft Shoves XP Boosting Microtransaction into Assassin's Creed Valhalla a Month After Launch

Kinda expected to be honest. Though I've seen much worse MTX practices. I guess it's nice for people who don't have enough time to grind. I get that it looks scummy but it's Ubisoft, what did ya'll expect lol

Honestly, atleast it's not as bad as locking necessary content through a paywall (not referring to standard DLC). Now THAT'S something to complain about. Like that battle royale game Don't Even Think where the devs thought it was a good idea to lock a new were class and a drone weapon through a paywall. Few months later and the game died. No longer available on the PS Store. I guess that what happens when you actually force the players to pay money just to get good or have fun.

Re: Demon's Souls PS5's First Review Pours on the Praise

@get2sammyb Agreed, though try telling that to those from r/demonssouls. So many posts there criticizing some of the changes, from the biggest (certain boss themes) to even the smallest (characters having grunt sounds). I understand where they are coming from but man, even if the remake does something that's as good, if not better than the original, people there will still find a way to complain about it.

Had to take a break from visiting that site. Reminds me of the time Dark Souls 2 got released and gained a lot of nitpicks from the fans.

@TG16_IS_BAE The reviewer did acknowledge the music and called it good but not as good as the original's. Personally, some of the tracks like Flamelurker and Astrea I actually kinda like, but then you would have something like Phalanx's theme where it lacks the memorable rhythm it had before.

What I would personally love to see Buepoint do is adding the original soundtrack as an option for those who prefers the classic rendition. If their SotC remake managed to keep the original music, then I don't think it's impossible for them to do the same for DeS.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Worried About the Future of Western RPGs on PS5?

What I would like to see if Sony could make their own Elder Scrolls/Fallout equivalent IPs. Like how about a fantasy game open world RPG based on Ghost of Tsushima Legends' take on japanese folklore.

Or maybe an open world rpg spinoff of Horizon Zero dawm where we can create our own characters and it could take in different regions around the world? Just think of fighting a loch ness monster robot in Scotland, or a dragon-like robot in Japan or China. That would be sick imo.

Re: This Is the PS3 Avengers Game You Never Played

SoulsBourne128

For what it is, I think the game actually shows promise. Although from what I have heard, they gave Captain America a gun, which was not a good idea, so I can understand why some were glad that the game was cancelled.

Still, from my perspective, it looks like it could have been fun.

Re: Chinese Action Game Black Myth: Wu Kong Is Attracting a Lot of Attention

SoulsBourne128

Not gonna lie, this looks good. Like, WAY too good. It's like Monkey King Hero is Back but more mature and, hopefully, much better. I might even call this game the true Wu Kong game.

I wanna say that I'm kinda tired seeing another Wukong game but this one looks very promising. Plus, judging by the title, if this game ends up being successful, we might get new installments based on chinese myths.

Re: Hands On: Marvel's Avengers Has a Critical Path Problem

SoulsBourne128

The best we can hope is for the developers to address these issues. Still looks like a fun game with friends but with a heavy Destiny-based loot, no interactions between characters outside of main missions and repetitive side objectives, I can't help but feel like this game would've been better as an F2P title.

Re: Samurai Shodown's Next DLC Character Is Free

SoulsBourne128

@3MonthBeef I mean, I do like her design and considering how Tencent is, I'm not surprised that they chose her. Just surprised that they added a character from a chinese moba game not many people know about. Then again, they also added Warden from a game that the japanese audience don't know about, so I guess that answers that lol.

Re: Samurai Shodown's Next DLC Character Is Free

SoulsBourne128

Apparently, she's from a Tencent china-only moba game called Honor of Kings, who later received an international version known as Arena of Valor.

Kinda strange that they chose an HoK character and not one from AoV since the latter is more popular. I guess Gongsun Li is Tencent's favorite girl.
