The_Wailing_Doom

Despite being a massive Borderlands fan, I waited for a HUGE sale before buying the game due to all the crap with the Epic Game Store. When I finally did buy the game, I did not really get into it because I prefer the crafted characters such as in the other Borderlands games rather than generic characters you create yourself, though I understand why they went that route. I didn't like the more simplistic classes with a focus on multi-classing, either, because it took away from each class's uniqueness. I ended up uninstalling the game and didn't play it until just recently. I must admit, I actually really liked it. It's not up to the quality of the mainline Borderlands games, but the gameplay was fun and the presentation was very good. I would definitely buy a sequel, either at launch if it launches on Steam or after a deep sale on Steam if it doesn't.

I certainly did. I really liked it.

Helldivers 2 is so awesome. I am excited to try out some of the new weapons.

NOOOO!!! I liked him in the excellent The Dark Pictures Anthology games.

That is beautiful.

An unremarkable game like Overwatch with an unremarkable Marvel skin. How unremarkable.

Considering how awesome the PS5 is already, any improvements are just icing.

@Yousef-
Just a fun fact your comment made me think of: Only the collection of planets, moons, and other bodies orbiting around our sun is called the solar system because Sol is the name of our sun specifically.

Hell yes! More Helldivers is always a good thing. The game is so good!

I am anxiously awaiting my statue!

@Enigk
I imagine it's more for crossplay.

What an absolute clown show Xbox is.

Consumers are their own worst enemy. <sigh>

I hope fire-resistant armor is included. I love using fire weapons, but hate lighting myself on fire.

Maybe this is a sign PlayStation is finally leaning into its Japanese roots more. They definitely need to do that.

I hope this battle station is more effective than the Menkent Line of defenses we established. Those defenses were overrun almost immediately and didn't do a thing.

@GamingFan4Lyf
The game has major orders and personal orders. The major order usually relates to the story and is a community-wide goal. For example, there may be a major order to liberate a planet for whatever reason. Sometimes, the reason is to get a new strategem (a weapon or ability you can call upon like an air strike or a defensive turret). Other times, that major order exists simply to unfold a bit more of the story or set an event up.

Every time you successfully complete a mission, you liberate the planet a fraction of a percentage. When the planet is fully liberated, it means it's fully in Super Earth's control.

A personal order is a personal goal. Sometimes, that is something like getting 100 kills with a machine gun.

It's an incredible game. Hopefully, I helped with some of your questions.

@SoulChimera
That's the right way to handle this. Anything less would have been unacceptable.

It's good to see Guilty Gear Strive up there in third since that is considered a niche fighting series. Tekken is my favorite fighting series, personally, but I end up playing Mortal Kombat and Injustice most of all just because that is what my friends like most.

It's wild to me Sony owns Evo, but has no fighting game(s) of its own.

I used to play every night for an hour or two, but there was a period of two weeks I could not play because I was on vacation. Now, I play a couple of times a week. There are a lot of other great games to play and I realized my backlog was only growing as I was fixated on Helldivers 2.

I have Borderlands 3 on PC, where I own all the other Borderlands games, so I'm not exactly upset about having that game on PlayStation, too, but it's not giving me any value. I have no interest in Among Us or NHL. I also don't have weirdly high expectations for my ~$7, though.

@KidRisky
I would be surprised if points are not awarded retroactively, but I have been surprised before!!

Set up alerts on www.PSPrices.com and thank me later. You'll know when the games you want go on sale and for their historically low price. Win!

@Victor_Meldrew
It would likely be profitable, but the opportunity costs still remain. Time spent by anyone porting or remastering Sunset Overdrive is time not spent on other projects that could be even more profitable.

@Haruki_NLI
I think you totally nailed it.

I wish. That would be nice.

Nice! Thank you for the heads up.

If this is true, it will clearly hasten GAME's death.

My body is ready!!!

I hate this. It didn't always land, but I really liked when PlayStation was everywhere really trying to drum excitement. State of Plays may be more trendy and more cost effective, but they are not nearly as exciting.

@WhiteRabbit
100%. People are crazy.

I am glad we saved the kids, but it is a shame those adult and pre-adult workers at the mine factories are out of a job at the moment.

I really wanted the mines, but I (correctly) figured saving the children would be better because the kids would grow up to be future Helldivers.

@WolfyTn
Sadly, single player only.

I rarely pre-order games, but this is the first non-God of War game I've pre-ordered in a long time that didn't come with a statue.

@Ulysses
How about the first article they wrote when the game was announced?

@Khayl, the children were saved and Arrowhead made a large donation to the Save the Children charity! There should be an article about this, so more people are aware of how awesome Arrowhead is.

@Toot1st
Can you? With the exception of Bungie (which I believe was a knee-jerk reaction to Microsoft's destructive spending spree) most, if not all, the studios PlayStation buys were cultivated and grown by PlayStation.

@Ergoshotz
Imagine believing Microsoft made Doom simply because they bought a studio that was already making Doom. Ha. Do you believe they made Minecraft, too?

It's an incredible update! It felt like Christmas because the PS5, Helldivers 2, and the Pulse Elite headset all got improvements today.

Space Marine 2 and Astro Bot are my most anticipated games left to release this year. I will definitely be getting those, but will likely also get Mechwarrior 5: Clans, Lego Horizon Adventures, and Starship Troopers Extermination.

Thank goodness they improved PlayStation Link. I hated how my Pulse Elite would randomly disconnect about once every dozen hours of play or so.

I am very excited for this game! We just know it'll be great!

Nicely done. I'm looking forward to playing Rise of the Ronin, but I have a few games standing in the way first.

Sumo Digital did such a great job with Sackboy. I was saddened when Sony didn't pick them up.

Those sick children are future Helldivers. I hope the community saves them. We will get the mines eventually.

I'll definitely rock Spiderverse suits on both! Nice!

@razorhanzo
They'll wait until it comes to Game Pass as they have been trained to do.

You love to see it.

I'll play both. They are different enough. I frakkin' love Helldivers 2, though.
