Pretty much the only 'meh' title Capcom has dropped in recent years...I forgot it existed tbh. Hope they give us the Dino game we all are asking for next.
I'm a couple of hours in, and I don't understand the discourse in the first place. It's tough, but not more so then any other From game, if people managed to finish the campaign, youd think they should be battle hardened. Anyhow, happy it's been remedied.
Really only if its a From Software game do I embrace and even enjoy it. Any other games, I have very little patience, especially if their cheap in their difficulty, or their a Souls ripoff.
PS5
Elden Ring
Checked out the dlc for a bit. Explored the first area, beat that fire ***** that roams the fields, then acted as a summon to help people trying to beat Moog at the dlc entry point. Just taking my time, enjoying new content for this, no need to rush.
PSVR 2
Vertigo 2
Awesome game, and a big step forward from the first title, which was solid but not as memorable. The imagination gone into design and levels is really admirable, just wish they would patch in DFR support to really do it justice.
Switch
Metroid Fusion
Having beat Super Metroid recently, I dived into this one. It's fine if slight, they took out a lot of the exploration and mystery for a more streamlined experience, which has pros and cons.
Overwatch 2 is on life support, the hero shooter had its time and place, so don't see this turning it around with Concord. Then again, a lot of people didn't think Helldivers 2 would succeed either, so let's wait and see.
Legends could have the opportunity to grow on PC, since it was a pretty badass free dlc that never got its due on console, but yh, with this requierment it won't. Hopefully PC users don't punish the excellent main game as well...they probably will though.
I wouldn't call it a 'surprisingly' move, more like inevitable. At least they moved on this quick and hope they take the lesson forward. If they want to break into PC, don't piss off Steam users, it's lose-lose situation.
I fooled around with it in Game Pass for a bit years ago, it was fun for a session but couldn't really see the appeal past that, I think it just wasn't my cup of tea.
Was really excited for some gameplay to be finally revealed, its been two years since they announced. I love the idea of this in VR, but until they actually show me it, I'm still on the fence.
I wish they would stop using their non-Gaas studios to do GaaS games. I don't have anything against the genre, but it will likely just get cancelled and waste a chunk of resources and time. It happened with Insomniac, Naughty Dog, FireSpirite and London Studio. Buy Arrowhead, and let them and Bungie make GaaS games and let everyone else do what they do best.
No issue, it really comes down to player choice too, you don't have to put on her barely there outfit if you don't want to...but if like me, you probably will lol.
Well now we know which Firespirite game is done. Bummer, the rumor was they were going to have a VR mode which would've been cool, still more excited that their original narrative horror game though...hopefully still in the works.
Started this on Game Pass on launch but didnt stick with it, might give it a second go on my preferred platform, and help support more Xbox stuff on PS5. Remember, if it sells well, we'll likely get more titles from them.
Looks like its time i played the game, ive enjoyed and beaten all former From ARPGs, the open world for this initially turned me off on, but so did no blocking in Bloodborne, and that became my favourite. With that said, From DLC has a habit of making the base game look like a walk in the park...ill make sure to bring my big boy pants.
@itsfoz not likely, it came out in the Insomniac leak when they dropped Horizon Forbiden West on the service half a year after release, it sank sales majorly and ongoing. From that I assume they won't try something similar again.
@MFTWrecks do you have a PSVR 2? I have to say, I couldn't stand Surviaval titles but got addicted to Song in the Smoke. The immesive format did the trick for me and I burned through Green Hell straight after. NMS is next on the list...

Re: The Obligatory Helldivers 2 Isn't As Popular As It Was Headlines Have Started to Emerge
Is it a coincidence that Shadow of the Erdtree hit this week? I know that's why I haven't been playing Helldivers.
Re: Metal: Hellsinger VR Brings Its Heavy Rhythm Action to PSVR2 This Fall
@Futureshark certainly, you'll need some sturdy VR legs for this one.

Awesome, been holding off getting it on other platforms cause I wanted it on PSVR 2. Happy the wait was worth it, its a day one for me.
Re: Helldivers 2 Director Defends Elden Ring Difficulty: 'Always Cater to a Select Audience'
If you ordered sushi don't get upset that it's not a hamburger. The From games are what they are, if they are not for yourself, play a different game.

Kinda ironic, considering Microsoft invented the practice in the 360 era.
Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest 2024 Great or a Letdown?
It was fine, a decent watch, I know not to expect much with these, so wasn't disappointed...or excited.

Re: Sony Doubles Down on Helldivers 2 PSN Requirement by Taking It Off Sale for PC in Numerous Countries
This feels like a tone deaf move, if they want to break into PC this is just plain silly and will hurt the massive momentum they created recently.
Re: Helldivers 2 PC Is Getting Review Bombed Over PSN Requirement
Didn't they do their research? Don't piss off Steam users with launcher requirements, it never ends well.

Re: Random: Seven Years Later, No Man's Sky's Reputation Is Slowly Improving
Well deserved. For any curious, it looks great in PSVR 2, in fact, it looks the best out of any version due to Foveated Rendering.
