Re: How Long Does It Take to Find a Match in Concord on PS5, PC?

I feel bad for all the developers that poured their heart and soul into this game. I really hope nothing bad comes of this. With that being said, this game is DOA. What amazes me is that the tech press is so sympathetic towards this game in general. If this was a game published and funded by MS, the fitchforks would have been relentless. I just wish there was more balance and less bias.

Finally killed Radahn and the little boy last weekend. Hardest and most unfair boss in From history. Did a speedrun to start the replay of the dlc again. Getting fatigued now with ER and going to take a break. Getting back into GOT mixed with some Starfield. The new rover is awesome. I ended up accidentally running over and killing people in the main city and now everyone is trying to kill me. Also, it is college football time here in the States. Going to watch my favorite team, Penn State at noon EST. Go Nittany Lions!

Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro Design Seemingly Leaked

I'm not bothered by digital only since I never had a big library of physical games. I am worried about the price though. I am thinking at least 600 USD. I have no need for a new PS5 Pro and will wait for the next generation.

I hope to finish Shadow of the Erdtree this weekend. I have been stuck on that rat ***** Consort Radahn. I went back to the haligtree to fight Malenia to see the difference in difficulty. I killed her on the 2nd try. Radahn is the hardest boss at least to me in any From game. I need to finish this so I can get back to GOT. I also just purchased Forza 4 so I will probably relax and play that as well in between throwing my controller after losing to Radahn again. And finally there will be Mario Kart with the kids.

Would be a day one buy for me if I did not have such a backlog. Will of course get it on sale at some point. Not sure I agree that Ubisoft does not have the same polish and visuals as PS Studios cut scenes. I always found Ubisoft to have some of if not the best graphics in the industry IMO.

Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Sells 2.2 Million Copies for $100

Some of you do not understand exactly how much Americans love college football plus the fact that this game has not released in many years. College football fans are some of the most passionate fan bases. The buzz around this game in the US was/is huge. If they are willing to pay for it, so be it. I am a huge college football fan with Penn State being my favorite team. The stadium holds 107,000 people and is one of the most fun experiences you could have at any sporting event. With all of that being said, there is no way in hell I personally would pay $100 for any game (outside of Elden Ring). I will wait for a sale or play on EA play next year.

Re: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Reaches 5 Million Sales in First Three Days

@Odium Good stuff. That hippo was ridiculous. I am now trying to beat Commander Gaius. Part of my problem is I am doing the DLC on NG+7, where the health pool of the bosses is bonkers. It is my own fault for playing Elden Ring that many times but it is my favorite game of all time. I am level 422 and am still getting destroyed. Loving every minute of it.

Re: Poll: Can a Game's Brutal Difficulty Put You Off Playing It?

cburg

Shadow of the Erdtree is without a doubt the hardest content From has ever made. I have played and beat every one of their games. I absolutely love it. There are ways to make it easier. Some bosses you can summon up to 3 people. The scadutree fragments really help as well. I understand that it can be too much for some people but for me it is great after beating some of these bosses (ie Renalla after 20 times).

Re: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Is the Highest-Rated DLC of All Time

8 out of 10. Base game. 9 out of 10. Demons Souls Remake 10 out of 10. This is a joke. I understand this is a PlayStation site but come on. I played the demons souls remake and it was unbelievable. But it doesn’t hold a candle to Elden Ring. Is this just to pacify those that worship a box? This review and Eurogamer are ridiculous. Liam man, what is the deal?

Is this another article to have all the internet keyboard warriors start another fight about whose box is better? Come on. If there is any reason for an article like this, at least post the full context of the interview. On another note, back to the games. Who is ready for Shadow of the Erdtree!!
