Haha as expected. I mean same with last year, putting GOWR above ER. I guess a PS site has to do PS business.

Happy New Year everyone!

Knew it had to be Genshin for you but since it didn't release this year, had to go for Honkai haha. For someone who couldn't stand Persona 5's text, there's no way you were going to survive BG3. I haven't even played it but judging from Divinity OS2, the text sometimes...arrghh, the Narrator has to hit me with 1000 lines of text just for touching a statue.

Wondering if you did just one playthrough of RE4 since you said you don't replay games @LiamCroft

Merry Christmas PushSquare folks!

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Haven't completed Iceborne because I lost my 500-600hrs 1st Save which was mainly heavy sword and insect glaive and a 120hrs thereabouts 2nd save mainly long sword and dual blades, I had my system corrupt, strangely deleted all my saves only. On a 115hrs-ish run now, mainly sword &shield, so cumulatively you could say I have around 800hrs on this hard to put down game.

People aren't reading the article, it says indefinitely, so he's probably gonna be out of there if he's cured of his hacking addiction. He's hacking whilst in police custody, clearly he has a problem and definitely gonna do it again if he's not kept on a leash.

Still on that incredible loop of hunting and crafting wonderful gear in Monster Hunter World Iceborne. Slowing down on Rise till I'm done with Iceborne.

@Flaming_Kaiser Guy's hilarious. By his logic, he would even scale his neighbour's fence just to check what their hiding because inquisitivity is his basic trait, and then blame the neighbors for being so secretive. 😂

@AverageGamer How's being extremely inquisitive a basic trait... you're laughable. I wouldn't even want to play GTA6 in its state now because I know that wouldn't be what the dev intended, totally useless.

Why would you care playing something that's not even finished... Wow there are all kinds of human beings in the world.

I think this is still present even in Divinity OS2. Where me and the group have travelled a long way only to realize the one guy is still stuck at a cliff because he all of a sudden forgot how to climb vines. How these Larian games play with all characters on the screen moving together, I think it's not gonna be fully fixed, it's bound to happen occasionally, just keep checking no one's left behind.

Lol of course.

Still Monster Hunter World Iceborne Rise. MH has gotta be one of the most spectacularly animated games ever.

@LiamCroft True. Articles like this gets people's attention through Google, fair enough. I think I even came here through one of those "Top 10 RPGs" articles, so yeah people need to understand the biz.

No matter how many people vote for BG3, they'll just hand it to Spiderman 2. 😉

1. AC Valhalla
2. MH World Iceborne
3. Sekiro
4. Elden Ring
5. Divinity OS2

Mm I thought I played MH World more than Valhalla though.

At this rate you just have to choose either the base camp or the pro camp so you have some significant years in-between to tell the technical differences. I might just stick to the base camp.

Just can't get enough of Monster Hunter I had to get Rise, and I'm not even done with Iceborne. Was hesitant initially when the internet kept talking down on Rise's graphics, yet I'm impressed with the sharpness and textures. The art direction is nice in its own right, nothing bad about it. Gotta love the combat, monsters, crafting, fashion in these games, no wonder they call them fashion hunter, like fashion souls except Sekiro doesn't like fashion. Yeah so it'll be mainly Rise and Iceborne this weekend.

@Sequel @HonestHick Trust me when it clicks, you won't be able to put down. The gameplay, combat is just superb! Try to learn crafting essential items, focus on the smithy forging new armor and upgrading weapons for you. If you just head out thinking you can win, you're gonna give up and move on to another game.

@Wolfstar Such a fool you are boy.

With records like this, got a feeling R* wants a 100 million more PS5s/SeriesXs in homes before it releases GTA6, so it can break more records.

You know a game is bad if generous IGN and GamesRadar give low scores. People would argue otherwise but I always say I wonder what Ubisoft could come up with if they give respect to franchises and focus all time and resources to develop just one, like Rockstar does. I mean imagine all the time/resources used for Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla was just used for ONE.

@themightyant Exactly, background looks so uninvited like we're gifting you this car but you need to drive around with our company logo plastered on it or else...

Thought y'all would be busy with your Yakuzas till then hehe...but I mean, there's still a lot of games - backlog. Games these days are huge to keep you occupied for a long time. It's not my thing to be anticipating games years away.

@SgtTruth You're hyping the graphics too much, last I checked RDR2 & TLOU2 run on PS4, this here looks similar, only difference there's more things going on onscreen, the PS5 should run it fine.

Maybe we should be worrying about the Series S also, y'know, holding things back. They're obviously aiming for PS5 & 6 double dipping.

Mad! But I mean it's Rockstar so...

Aaron Garbut is a Rockstar veteran, he can't be in trouble.

Still...Monster Hunter World Iceborne. After all these hours still finding new combos for a few weapons, haven't even touched half of the available weapons, game's real deep. Some MAFIAIII, just trying to get that plat.

Because the original ones still drift.

Nothing against mobile gaming but nothing like a true controller in my hands.

Agreed. Being a kid and getting just a few games a year, games ever evolving would've been more than money's worth. Just remembering how you could beat The Getaway on PS2 in a day, you beat it a couple more times and then the disc just sits there useless. Though games now are so huge and there's not really much time for all of them, I still prefer them to the 6hr games of the past. But I hat microtransactions on costumes and skins though! At least let's play the game and earn it not buy it.

@Jtheripper And that whole isometric view can be annoying sometimes but I understand they want you to see all party members. I'll get back to it when I figure which easy path to go, but it's always interruptions with new missions popping up just by talking to anyone.

Seems most of you didn't read the article. It's not saying they don't want games, it's PHYSICAL games they're not asking for. Rather, in-game currencies which could include PS Store wallet topups. They don't want grandma telling them they can't have an 18+ game so they'd rather take the credits and buy what they want.

I been shortchanged, bought Divinity 2 for £20 just recently. Kinda even lost interest after everywhere I go "you're outmatched, return when you have more experience." Just continuing my 700hrs of Monster Hunter World Iceborne!

If you told me in the past I would be a big Monster Hunter fan I probably wouldn't believe, but it is what it is after our on and off relationship since 2019. Heading to 700hrs cumulative time across 3 saves, no exaggeration. I'm playing this game as much as I've played Rockstar, FromSoftware or Bethesda games. It's more MH World Iceborne for me this weekend plus any other games on the side.

@Olmaz I mean BG3 is way more advanced than Divinity on a technical level, it's highly impressive but if it's the same steep learning curve and multiple missions just popping up like Divinity...some people would just give up along the way I'd reckon.

I wonder if people have finished it tho... because playing Divinity OS2, it's great and all but you sometimes feel like just dropping it when you don't really know your focus, missions popping up everywhere.

"Early [insert new year] is going to be crazy/destroy/nuts"...where have I heard that before. 🤔

Went back to Sekiro to gather points to acquire those powerful skills just for fackin Sword Saint. Still roaming in AC Valhalla. Don't know where to go on Reaper's Coast in Divinity OS2, since everywhere I go it's "you're outmatched." Would like to take down a few monsters in MH World Iceborne also. Roam a bit in legendary Elden Ring, MAFIAII probably, I mean it's whatever else.

No way they'd give it to Zelda 2 times especially when BotW and TotK are similar. And after snubbing and nobody caring about Divinity OS2 in the 2017 Game Awards, they'll make it up to them with BG3.

@Andy22385 And chances are if this was also as popular as a Ubisoft game, you'd be calling the side stuff boring.

@Mikey856 Almost gave up on Divinity OS2 myself and I remembered it's RPG; meaning go elsewhere to level up, stock up on healing items and comeback to finish that mf. Now can't stop playing. Don't have BG3 tho, one day most def.

@theSpectre Well yeah you could be fine with it that's fine, but clearly it's not really the right direction if it's not getting a lot of nominations for a game that was highly anticipated.

Baldur's Gate 3 is what traditional FF fans wished FF16 was.

@ATaco I mean that's one of the advantages of this "slim" to begin with. This article however is talking about detaching the drive on one console and attaching to another with no problems.

Bought a fake DS4 and haven't really had extreme drift problems like an original DS4, the irony. The fake one's sticks sensitivity I think are like that of the DS1,2,3 that's why it's fine, the DS4's sticks are just way too sensitive causing drift issues.

@Yaycandy I was wondering that too..."NEXT GTA"...is it a spinoff that'll release across all consoles just so Herr Strauss Zelnick can answer to investors, and shut the people who say R* takes too long to release games up...

Article just be trolling PS4 owners. @weeniebeenie said it all, it's not about PS4 install base, this will have long legs like GTAV, so they're gonna be looking at long term profit from when people migrate to PS5 and continue that to PS6. They'd compromise too much in creativity, realism with no bugs if they consider PS4.
@Max_the_German except Rockstar doesn't release games every year, can't really put GTA and COD in the same sentence.
