Why not remake the original AC instead? Its aged pretty poorly and could do with a ground up remake. I get Black Flag is very popular but it really doesn't need a remake.
@Americansamurai1 I mean it worked for World. As long they keep the monetization levels around World and Rise's levels and still allow offline play i have zero issues if they decide to fully commit to a live service.
@HonestHick I actually like how the online side works, i was worried a shared world could cause issues but its all pretty chill. Its fun seeing other players roaming around doing their thing or everyone in the same area teaming up for an event, really makes the world feel alive.
As i said on PX i call BS here from Jim, he's basically using the "my friend said this so its true" card. I'm not saying what Phil says about GP numbers and profit are true but i would take his word on it over the man who runs the rival gaming corp.
@HonestHick The annoying always online stuff aside i'm loving Diablo 4, i'm around half way into act 4 and very close to Lv 50 but already its my favourite entry.
@HonestHick Honestly i think i prefer Red Dead to GTA nowadays, Red Dead 2 is R*s masterpiece in my opinion and it really annoys me it can't get a 60fps patch for current gen. As for Red Dead yeah i have it on Series S, bought it during a sale last year and it was great playing it again as well as the incredible Undead Nightmare (best DLC ever).
Not for everyone but i loved it on Xbox especially as i'm a big fan of Giger's work and Alien. Again its really not for everyone though but if it clicks with you it very much clicks, i may double dip it if it hits PS5.
@daveofduncan If FF7R is anything to go by i doubt FF16 is hitting Xbox especially as Sony owned tech when into the making of FF16, its getting a PC release but its confirmed it will be a while even after the timed exclusivity wears off.
@tomassi Its never getting a 3rd person mode, the game has been scaled for a 1st person view hence why 3rd person mods look terrible. It would require a ton of work and wouldn't be worth it for how little would use it.
@JSnow2 They have been doing this for years. Both Horizon games, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank, both God of War games, Demons Souls, Days Gone and more all had content locked behind the Deluxe versions.
@MattBoothDev The auction house that was dropped? You don't have any evidence to prove this stuff is coming, its been stated multiple times seasons and future story content is being "funded" by the cosmetic shop and battle passes, they have actually been pretty up front from the off how they are doing things
End of the day though you're not playing the game, clearly haven't researched the game and clearly don't care to do either so why even bother commenting when you know so little about it. This nerf is isn't even that bad, the people effected are the people who were grinding certain dungeons for hours on end for a couple of extra stat points that make little different.
@MattBoothDev and you got evidence that non cosmetics are coming? Blizzard have stated multiple times the MTX and Battle Passes are only cosmetic based, anything that affects gameplay barring future expansions will be free.
@MattBoothDev How are they ruining the game? Its just a bunch of lackluster skins you barely see the game due to the view that are worse then the many many transmog skins you can very easily obtain in game, in fact my current look is way better then what the store offers.
Still pretty mild in open world size then as while the map of the first game seems massive its actually way smaller then you would think. I'm fine with this as it suits the game plus i expect like the first the map will be dense.
@GodofCapcom I never said i dislike Aloy i just dislike how she's become the blueprint for "strong female characters". As i said i loved Abby and i love Ellie and and speaking of Ashly Burch i love Chloe from Life is Strange. Also i wouldn't call Kassandra, Abby and Batgirl sexualized. Back to Aloy yeah she's as realistic as any other gaming hero, she certainly lacks the raw depth of Ellie or Abby for instance and she's largely a fantasy hero like Nathan Drake, Dante, Ezio and such in yeah they're great for that Hollywood action hero feel but as a reflection of real life and its people? Nope not at all.
@GodofCapcom Kassandra from AC Odyssey is one of my favourite characters in gaming and maybe in my top 3 ever. My avatar in SF6 is female, my Sorc in Diablo 4 is female, FemShep in Mass Effect is canon for me, Bayonetta is one of my favourite characters in gaming along with Lara Croft, i adored Abby TLoUP2 and i hope ND bring her back for Part 3, Batgirl was my most played hero in Gotham Knights and giving a choice between choosing between playing as a male or female i almost always pick female. Yeah implying i prefer male characters doesn't work here dude.
As for this and Starfield? Two completely different games, one is a 3rd person action adventure open world while the other is a space exploration RPG with near limitness scope that looks like cross between Skyrim and No Man's Sky.
@Grimwood Cal is far better then the Aloy clone in this game in my opinion, he actually feels like a person with depth while this new character feels like a focus group designed her.

Re: Monster Hunter Rise Another Colossal Hit for Capcom, Tops 13 Million Sales
@Agramonte This game was made for Switch firsr as the series has a massive fanbase on Switch, PC and other consoles were never the focus.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023 Leaked Early
@Darude84 If you haven't played Control yet i highly recommend you play it after AW as its in the same universe and ties in into it.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023 Leaked Early
Good month even if i own Alan Wake already.

Re: New Korean Rating for Red Dead Redemption Has Fans Hoping for a Remaster
I would kill for a remaster in the Red Dead 2 engine and i would kill for a 60fps patch for Red Dead 2.

Re: Crash Team Rumble (PS5) - A Pleasant Surprise That Might Not Last Very Long
@Markatron84 Yep and a Battle Pass is coming as well.
Re: Crash Team Rumble (PS5) - A Pleasant Surprise That Might Not Last Very Long
This should have been F2P. It sounds pretty decent but i have no interest in buying it.

Re: YouTuber Yong Yea Is the New English Voice of Kazuma Kiryu
@Judal27 Sure and i've been watching his stuff for years as well however he is a proper pro voice actor now and he's pretty damn good at it.
Re: Full Final Fantasy 16 Takeover on PS Store for PS5 Launch
Its going to be 2 weeks before i can get it, the wait will be painful.
Re: YouTuber Yong Yea Is the New English Voice of Kazuma Kiryu
@Judal27 He's pro voice actor, he's been doing it for years and has been in lots of stuff including voicing a key character in the JoJo anime.
Re: YouTuber Yong Yea Is the New English Voice of Kazuma Kiryu
@RBMango He's actually been very good of not using his real voice when voice acting.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.63 Out Now on PS5, Get All the Patch Notes Here
@Beerheadgamer82 Most of the updates have been replacing files rather then adding them so the size has stayed mostly the same.
Re: You'll Need Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Digital Deluxe Edition for Those Extra PS5 Suits

Re: Finally We Know a Bit More About Capcom's Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess for PS5
Its a modern day Capcom game so i have high hopes.
Re: Blizzard Nerfs Dungeons to Stop Rampant Diablo 4 XP Farming
@MattBoothDev and you got evidence that non cosmetics are coming? Blizzard have stated multiple times the MTX and Battle Passes are only cosmetic based, anything that affects gameplay barring future expansions will be free.
Re: Blizzard Nerfs Dungeons to Stop Rampant Diablo 4 XP Farming
@MattBoothDev There's no way to buy in game currency. The only things you can buy is some premium cosmetics and the Battle Pass.
Re: Blizzard Nerfs Dungeons to Stop Rampant Diablo 4 XP Farming
@Zuljaras I mean D2 and D3 were practically live services and D4 offers more content then most "complete" games.

Re: There's Growing Concern Over Persona Dev's Metaphor: ReFantazio Being an Xbox Exclusive

@Grimwood Cal is literally his actor Cameron Monaghan, you say generic i say an amazing likeness of the guy voicing and motion capturing him.

@EchoRange Saw enough to know what Ubi were going for.
