I hope they make something totally different, and not yet another cinematic game. They made some excellent platformers in the past, and wouldn't mind a new one.
It's funny how, having a hot girl in a videogame, makes the internet rage. But having a hot shirtless guy in a game, and noone cares. Western developers: Sexy girls = bad, Sexy guys = totally okey.
I don't have the body of The Rock, but that don't make me go mental on social media about, how bad it is with muscular men in games/movies.
@ajbrasel Sony should focusing on making some new single player IP's on smaller AA budgets (like in their early generations), so they can start taking risks again, with new crazy concepts, and fill the void between the AAA games, with new games, instead of remakes/remasters.
This has become the most boring console generation, when it comes to proper new first party console exclusives. I hope this remaster/remake trend dies soon. Or the PS6 gen, will be just as bad...
I'm actually having more fun discovering games I haven't played yet, on the PS2 and PS3, than I do with this one.
@OldGamer999 I wish they would focus on some AA games as well. Games that don't need 5 years of development and a 300 million dollar budget. I miss the PS2 and PS3 era, when we got multiple games in the same series. PS3 got 3 Uncharted games. It takes way too long to make AAA games now...
Finally a JRPG, I might actually finish. I usually get bored after about 20-30 hours, so this will be perfect length for me 😁👍 I wish there were more shorter JRPG's out there, as I can't stand all the unnecessary fetch and side quests, and other fluff, killing the pacing for many hours, until you can continue the story.
@Casco Yeah, we're half way through this generation, and it still feels like it hasn't started, with most of the first party games, being remasters/remakes or cross-gen... Probably gonna continue like this, during the PS6 gen as well.
How about remastering PS2-PS3 games instead?
Oh yeah, that would take some actual effort to make, instead of just rendering a PS4 game at a higher res...
Some of us have a life, and don't have all the time in the world, to waste on walking for 30 minutes to reach the next quest location, and then 30 minutes to walk all the way back again.
I miss the Japan game industry of the 80:s-00:s, when they really where on the top.
Especially JRPG:s were so much better back in the PS1/PS2 era.
There where so many new and interesting ideas back then. Hate how modern gaming is stuck in cinematic, open worlds and service games...
Yes I know indies exists, but it feels like they are also mostly recycling old ideas.
It's kinda interesting, that I'm replaying Zelda 3, for the first time in 30 years, and I'm having more fun with that, than I ever have with most modern games. Most games today are so bland and forgettable. And I just can't get into cinematic games anymore. I miss the PS1 to PS3 era...
I'm mostly playing wired now. Feels like I have to charge the damn thing all the time otherwise.
Same with the controllers for the PSVR2. In comparison, the Quest 3 controllers, runs off one AA battery each, and after one month, the battery is still at 90%. I wish there was an option for AA batteries on Sony's controllers, so you could add rechargeable ones, if you wanted to.
The AA batteries in my Xbox controllers, last for weeks. That's why a prefer if chargeable batteries always was an option. It's also easier to replace, when it dies, without having to open up the entire controller.
I was looking for what exclusives is coming up for PSVR2, before I decided to sell it (I also own a Quest 3, for native and PCVR games), and seeing the lack of titles for 2024, just made the choice easier.
Might give it another shot, in a year or two, if Sony actually makes some exclusives for the system.
Most of my friends are still using their PS4, with no interest in upgrading yet. Plus there are a huge catalogue of great games, at a cheap price, to keep them using the PS4 for a long time.
Not everyone jumps on the new system on release, but instead waits until mid-gen, when they can get a console at a cheaper price. Personally, I think the PS4 gen, was more fun, compared to the PS5 gen so far. So if I wasn't a hardcore gamer, I would probably also have stuck with the PS4, for another year or two.
Love the first game, but I was disappointed in the sequel. The dialogue was pretty bad in places, and I just didn't get hooked by the story, in the same way as the first one.
I miss old God of War. It was fast paced epic action, and felt like a proper video game, instead of a interactive movie. Now it's too much about drama and feelings. Too much Oscars/Awards bait.
I guess this is why I'm totally burned out on cinematic story focused games, and moved on to games that focus on gameplay.
But, just bring on all the comments of how wrong I am.
Good. Maybe we finally can get rid of reprojection, in PSVR2 games, and keep them running in native 90fps.
It about time as well. More demanding titles, are already starting to dip lower and lower in resolutions. Especially in Performance mode.
So if Sony want to keep this gen going, until 2027-2028, we need more power to keep up. Unless we wanna end up with 900p and 30fps for all big AAA titles, in a few years.
People who complains about the Pro. No one is forcing you to upgrade. Just stick to the standard PS5, if your happy with it.
Same as many did, during the PS4 generation.
@Toot1st Yeah, I replayed the original PS2 games, many times. Tried to replay the reboot, but got bored after a few hours. Too much cinematics and slow boring parts. The cinematics in the old games, were short and never interupted the gameplay, in the same way. Plus the platforming etc was more fun. The action was fast and furious. Also, I don't like what Kratos have become now. Too much drama.
Yeah, I can barely remember any of the gameplay, from MGS4. Just one boss fight. Other than that, I just remember how painfully long and annoying the cutscenes were. Like a pointless scene of the little girl frying eggs, etc. I don't remember how long the game was, but it felt like 80 procent of the running time, was spent with those damn cutscenes.

Wish western developers did this.
Sony uses beautiful models, but then change them to make them ugly/less attractive in the actual games.
I wish I could have seen the reaction, from Alex at DF, when these photos showed up. Because according to him, girls like that don't exist 😂
Re: When Is the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth State of Play?

Too many spoilers these days.
I already pre-ordered the game, and I wanna go in blind, not knowing anything about it.
Re: The Last of Us 3 Probably Happening at Some Point in the Future
I wish they would make something fun again, like they did, during the ps1-ps3 era.
TLoU is just too damn depressing and boring.
They should start making some AA games, in between the AAA games.
Re: Rumour: A New PlayStation Handheld Console Reportedly in the Works
If the rumors are true, which I doubt, I'll bet Sony supports it for the first 6 months, and then no more first party games...

This isn't anything new though, as stars and actors, have ALWAYS had problems with crazy fans.
Re: Naughty Dog Details The Last of Us 2 Remastered Upgrade Path on PS5
Nope. This was a game, that don't have any replay value, for me.
I hope Naughty Dog moves on now, to a new IP, because I'm so damn tired of this franchise.

Re: Naughty Dog Has 'More Than One' Ambitious PS5 Single Player Game on the Way
I hope it's something more fun, in the style of Uncharted. So tired of dark post-apocalypse games.
But to be honest, I wish they would make something totally different now, instead of yet another cinematic third person game.
