Re: Everybody's Golf Dev Skips PSVR2 for New VR Golf Game

bindiana

Do feel there was a massive falling out between Sony and Clap Hanz. Easy come Easy golf isn't out on Sony consoles but out on the switch. Not a big golf fan but put so many hours into the Everbodys golf games over the last few generations. Loved the PS2 one where you could play as Ratchet and Jak.

Re: PSN Data Says Foamstars' Future Is Bleak, Just Two Months After Release

@Flaming_Kaiser You did get some cosmetics free in the battle pass I never paid for the battle bass and think I got 6 cosmetics and a character but there were about 35 levels on the pass so a low % was free. It is a shame as if they got the monetisation right could have some legs but I played for one season and a few games into the second season then dropped it.

Re: Reaction: What Is Happening to the Video Games Industry and Why Are There So Many Layoffs?

I think its a lot to do with money and time. A lot of people who have the income to buy new games also don't have the time as they work or have families. A lot of games these days are at least a minimum of 30 hours to complete. I used to buy a lot of games day one I cant remember the last big game i bought day one that wasnt an indie. I am a huge FFVII fan but I havent bought rebirth.

I like a lot of people i expect have a big backlog that seems never ending and with games getting reduced very quickly it seems wiser to wait then play day one, as usually there are a few bugs day one as well so when you get round to playing it is usually fully patched.

Re: Guerrilla's Online PS5 Horizon Game Survives Sony Cull

@TwoDents And multiple people have expressed the same opinion as me but I havent told anyone else there opinion is irrelevant. I and other people are putting across why it feels like there has been lots of entries. Its fine you don't see them all as entries but other people do. Again my opinion, so again sorry if you think its wrong all the games and expansions even the VR game have been heavily advertised by Sony (where I live anyway) when they were released which again would cause the effect of over saturation

@TwoDents Thanking for letting me know my opinion is irrelevant I stand fully corrected I will consult with you in the future if I ever try and have another opinion. Hopefully your day is now wonderful now that you have establlished yours is the only opinion that matters.

Re: Guerrilla's Online PS5 Horizon Game Survives Sony Cull

@TwoDents Not sure what narrative you think I am "Pushing" I was pointing out that Horizon had 5 products out in the last 7 years. Actually praising them that the expansions are substantial and not quick cash grabs. My opinion the expansions are of good length and quality they should be considered proper entries. Sorry other people don't agree with that but thats my opinion.

Re: Immortals of Aveum Cost $125 Million, Branded a 'Truly Awful Idea'

bindiana

I seriously dont understand all the hate the game gets. I enjoyed the game it was one of the best looking games I played last year. It was a huge risk but least they tried something new and not another sequel, remaster or soulslike. But as others said have to question the £40million marketing budget what did this actually pay for?

Re: Poll: How Would You Rate the Latest State of Play Showcase?

bindiana

Basically the show showed 2nd and 3rd party is doing all the heavy lifting at the moment for Sony. I have no idea why they cant tease something from one of there big studios just to give the fans something. This also extends to VR with Sony still not producing any games for PSVR2 not even a token PSVR2 version of Astrobot.

The showcase showed the industry is in a bit of a rut with most games being sequels, remakes/remasters or souls likes. Least Judas looked new and interesting. But it does seem what most fans want going by the reaction to this article.

Dave the diver is already out on Switch isnt it? Sony seems very late to the party on some of these big indie games. Still hasn't got Vampire survivors but that maybe more to do with Microsoft then Sony.

Re: Poll: How Would You Rate the Latest State of Play Showcase?

bindiana

@get2sammyb But surely you can understand Sony fans want to know what there studios are working on. Most of the games will be availble on xbox. Sadly if its not a remake/remaster, sequel or a soulslike Sony dont seem interested. And it looks like they have all but given up on PSVR2 after a year

Re: The Last of Us 2 Remastered Director Doesn't Get Fan 'Consternation' Surrounding Re-Release

bindiana

I think its just a combination of stuff. If sonys first party output had been better since launch and there communication had been better I don't think it would be such a big deal. Sonys first party output apart from returnal has been mainly seqeuls and remakes/remasters so I think its a bit of fatigue and people thinking Sony in general have no new ideas.

If they also at some point over the last couple of years showed what Naughty dog were working on (could just be a 30 second teaser) that would of eased a lot of the negativity as well

Re: Publishing Exec Claims 'There Are Too Many Games'

bindiana

My backlog never seems to get any smaller due to my huge backlog I rarely buy games day one. Some bargains I have picked up in the last couple of months SFVI £20, Resident Evil 4 £22 and Dead Island 2 £25 as well as quite a few others just got to find time to play them all, only done Resi 4 out of those. I have extra but thinking of dropping it due to not having enough time to do my backlog of games.

Re: Talking Point: Is Bungie Really the Right Developer to Aid Sony's Live-Service Push?

bindiana

Bungie were better run and less money grabbing under Activision that says alot about the company. Bungie has the worst monestisation practices in the business, Name me one other developer that has deleted paid content from there customers! Its a huge shame as there shooting gameplay is up there as the best in the business its just everything else around it that lets it down.

On a side note I wish Push Square would stop saying Destiny 2 is Free to play thats very misleading as most of the free to play content has been deleted at least all the meaningful content has.
