Re: The Witcher 3 PS5 Patch 4.02 Improves Performance, Fixes Bugs

WallyWest

@Max_the_German Well the RED engine is a big reason why as its a difficult engine to work with hence why CDPR ate ditching it and going full Unreal 5 going forward. TW3 is also a massive RPG with tons of moving parts and systems. As for Nintendo well Pokemon S&V currently has a bug that corrupts saves and the fix is due the end of next month so they aren't flawless.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty?

WallyWest

@KundaliniRising333 To be clear i only sub to the basic Plus package as i own most of the games the service offers. I use Gamepass more as an extended demo to try games i'm unsure off or play indies i might have missed normally, if i like the game i usually just buy it on PS5 soon after. All that said if i owned zero games and had to pick between the two i would pick Plus as again i find it more diverse, both have great selections though and GP does have that advantage of stuff like Starfield and Redfall coming Day 1 this year.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty?

WallyWest

@KundaliniRising333 I have a Series S and i sub to Gamepass and i feel games wise Plus is better, Gamepass relies heavily on 1st party stuff, EA's output and Bethesda's output to bulk up the list. Yes they do great Day 1 releases but comparing Plus and Gamepass's libraries i feel Plus is better and more diverse.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty?

WallyWest

@KundaliniRising333 I mean the reason MS gets away with 1st party day one releases is because they release so little of them, spend far less then Sony does on them and can afford to take the loss. Right now Gamepass and Plus are around equal and if the 1st party stuff like Halo and Forza isn't your thing or you don't like Bethesda's games then Plus has a clear edge.

Re: Monster Hunter Rise's Sunbreak Expansion Arrives on PS5, PS4 in April

WallyWest

@KundaliniRising333 Why are you lying? There's no battle passes at all in the game and the game can be played offline with ease. The only monetization in the game is Sunbreak an expansion bigger then the base game and some cosmetic stuff you can easily ignore as the main game has way more then enough already. Also Rise isn't a live service.

Re: Resident Evil 4 Remake's Chainsaw Demo Cuts PS5, PS4 Today

WallyWest

@Yyy If you think the remakes Capcom are putting out are lazy then your crazy.

I will always laugh at gamers when they complain about remakes and remasters because most of them have shelfs full of Blu Rays that they owned on DVD and what they owned on VHS prior to DVD. Dude if people didn't want remakes they wouldn't sell and if you don't want them then don't buy them but don't tell other people what to do with their own money.

Re: Disastrous PS5 Demo Leads to Suicide Squad Delay

WallyWest

@Grimwood Dude the demo had Captain Boomerang speeding around like a Flash shooting people with shotguns, red flags right there.

Let's see its a 3rd person loot based shooter a very tired genre, it has a battle pass, gear scores, MTX shop, roadmaps, its always online and has its 4 characters all playing exactly the same shooting big purple glowing orbs. Its like they saw Avengers and decided to make a poor mans version of it.

Re: Sony Has Approximately $5 Billion Left for Acquisitions and Investments

WallyWest

I think the only publisher i would want Sony (and MS) to really buy is Konami because we might actually get more games then. People on here begging Sony to buy SE or Capcom are just as bad as the MS fanboys who really want MS to get Activision. As always gamers are so short sighted and don't see the harm being caused in the long run.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy Takes Fourth Number One, Still Selling Best on PS5

WallyWest

@Deoxyr1bose Atlus also couldn't announce P3/P4 PS4's release until a day after the Xbox showcase and PS players also weren't allowed to pre-order them or have native PS5 versions.

The reason MS do this is to give off the impression they have more exclusives then they actually do. We know better of course but the regular joe only saw the announcement and so thinks its an Xbox game. Funny thing is with Wo Long is many on Xbox are downloading it through Gamepass, getting their butts kicked by the first boss and rage quiting, deleating it and then tanking the user reviews. Overall i think MS just thrown money away with Wo Long as its way too niche for Xbox users who are playing through Gamepass.

Re: TV Show Review: The Last of Us (HBO) Episode 8 - Streamlining Hollows Out Iconic Moments

WallyWest

I feel like Bill and his love life were giving more care and attention then the biggest moment in Ellie's life prior to TLoUP2 events. Winter is when Ellie's innocence is lost, its when she fully loses her childhood and what sets her on her path going forward, Winter changes her forever and well i feel the episode let Winter down and it all felt very rushed and lacked what made the events of the game so great.

Re: Sony Must Share Details of Exclusivity Deals with Microsoft in FTC's Court Hearing

WallyWest

@Godot25 If Sony didn't do a price hike first then MS would have. What you're ignoring is this sooner or later GP will see GP only games meaning you can only play them if you sub to GP, once MS have got people used to this idea they will raise the price of GP and people will be forced to pay it if they want to play X game. This may be speculation but this is the stuff MS is known for and slowly the X1 original plan is taking hold but just coated with sugar.

Re: Sony Must Share Details of Exclusivity Deals with Microsoft in FTC's Court Hearing

WallyWest

@Green-Bandit I love how short sighted gamers are. Sony and MS buying up the gaming world is not good for us in the long run nor is it healthy for gaming. MS end goal is Gamepass and everyone on it, they're desperate for it to be on PS and Switch and its only a matter of time before Gamepass exclusive games start appearing and big price hikes for it happen and MTX become worse. This Activision deal benifits MS and MS alone and anyone who thinks otherwise is very naive.

Re: Naoki Yoshida Is Not a Fan of the Term 'JRPG'

WallyWest

Yeah i can imagine a Japanese Dev or player doesn't think of these games as JRPG's but as RPG's, it would be like i suppose them calling Mass Effect or Skyrim a "WRPG". Its very much a Western term but to be fair to us there is a massive difference between how Bioware or Bethesda make an RPG compared to how Atlus or SE make them, its a simple term and largely explains to someone in the west what the game is more or less.

Re: Yes, Sony Helped Optimise Final Fantasy 16 for PS5

WallyWest

@KaijuKaiser If MS buy Activation that will be it barring smaller Devs. There's a reason Disney stopped at Fox and its because they know they won't be allowed anything else at that scale. SE, Capcom, EA, Ubi, Take Two and such will be impossible to buy if they get Activision not to mention Japan has a big issue with American corps buying their Corps so i doubt they would let MS buy CC, Sega and SE.

Re: Yes, Sony Helped Optimise Final Fantasy 16 for PS5

WallyWest

At the very least from a visual standpoint i think the game is going to blow peoples minds and show what happens when a game is made for PS5 only and not being forced to be on PS4.

I question if this will ever hit Xbox because more and more its becoming clear the Series S can't keep up, unless MS allows Series X only releases then i wouldn't be shocked if more games skip Xbox due to the requirement of Series S versions. I love my SS but i have to admit its going to hold back Xbox a lot this Gen.

Re: You Must Dominate the Battlefield for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's Platinum Trophy

WallyWest

@burning_as_souls Yeah i struggled for hours on him however each fight i was getting better and now i can go back and handle him just fine. Once you get the timing right on the parrying he's not too bad its just you have to be quick and ready to learn these rules way too soon. As a first boss though yeah he's way to tough especially if you aren't good at parrying.
