@Worlock_ed Looking forward, still making my fantasy on square bases. But I hope it will transit into digital gaming. Sigmarines are the most boring fraction GW ever made.
Those Sigmarines are boring as hell, but that game looks perfect. Don't know why they stuck only on four armies??? I hope AoS ends soon and Old World comes back.
It is a bit letdown. When I got my PS2 I was happy to play my dream games. When I got my PS3 it was just WOW! Super graphics and perfect variety of games. Than I got PS4 Pro and it had same WOW effect. Variety of games and huge graphics leap. ...and when I got PS5 it was just... hmmm... it is faster ps4, with chaotic UI (still confused with short and long ps button press) and number of games you can count on one hand...
I have feeling like I'm still fighting with that machine. It is very unintuitive, everything is hidden behind "2 more moves or clicks"... it reminds me my transition from WinXP to Win8.1 - access to some functions are disabled or digged deeper.
I'm not happy with PS5. I still feel little robbed. And if my PS4 could have SSD loading times, I would never buy PS5 and skip this generation entirely...
@SlipperyFish They would sell maybe 10% of PS5 without BC, because there was maybe 2-3 games in first two years. Now it is maybe 5... and that won't sell hardware itself.
I'm not surprised PS5 is going well, because it has PS4 compatibility. And if you look into history you can clearly see how huge damage PS3 suffered once it was stripped of PS2 compatibility. Yes, PS4 also didn't have PS3 compatibility, but it hasn't it from the start so people didn't feel robbed. Atop of it, PS4 was huge jump forward. So PS5 without PS4 support would be somewhere around Stadia.
Are those sales compared only for games released both (physically and digitally) or is it just all games? If this statistic is for all games, than it is heavily missleading, because you cannot compare things yhat don't exist.
There is maybe 1% of games on disc I'd like to buy. The rest is unfortunately only digital so I have no other option.
I rather ask whitch third party developer won't release it on PS4? No one cares power of system, everybody cares number of sold systems. That is simple logic.
And another thing... No one still takes PS5 seriously, even SONY. It is that black sheep (in ugly white furr).
When it comes on sale... I gave Blizzard too much money on day one. D4 was warning sign they count on it and don't care anymore if product has some quality.
I gave Destiny 2 some hours (2 or 3) a few months ago and it was fun, but in the end I hit the wall of boredom and didn't even start it again next day.
Globally I think that whole era of FtP, GaaS, MMO and Battle Royale multiplayer sh*tstorm started to implode. Opposite to singleplayer, where you finish game, put on shelf and maybe in a few years you return, multiplayer requires constant attention and that simply cannot be given.
I still compare games to books or movies. You can love some so much that you can read/watch them a few times, but can't do it for a long time. You need a rest or it will just fulfill your need and you put it away for good.
Yes, multiplayer boom, especially FtP and GaaS, was made by gamers itslef by buying additional (crappy) content. And it is logical that companies offer something that normally thinking person would avoid by miles, because there are unfortunately lot of lunatics who buy it (one example for all is Costumes). So it isn't fault of producers, it's fault of customers.
@LIMA Exactly... One hit = death in combination with enemy's brilliant aim skills and predictions of your moves is making that game pure purgatory. Simply I thought I cannot affect if I die or survive because it was about luck, not skill. I was looking forward it, but it was huge letdown and the only luck I had it was free PS Plus game and therefore it didn't end on PS5 pile of shame I paid for (and unfortunately it is not so small pile).
I tried it today again after... 2 months? Lvl 41 Necro, Act V. I gave it an hour, but didn't get any legendary... I don't know... I'm trying to at least like it, but it is hard.
1. SONY won't buy anything soon, because their move of "milking cow" GaaSes has wrecked and they wasted huge amount of money, so they have to return to planning table. 2. Microsoft now buys anything they want. ABlizz aquisition success was like releasing from leash and they'll try as fast as they can to get monopoly on any digital gaming, because now is their chance. 3. Regulators are incompetent puppets. They were doing like "we are doing something" but failed miserably and any trust is at zero level.
@get2sammyb That is pitty that not all, even lowcost, games are not revieved. There is a lot of games that can be judged only by price and how often they are on sale... Maybe they are good, but who knows? or is willing to spend hardly earned money on rabbit in sack?
Diablo 4 was 40 hours fun. Now every another hour is pain. And if you ask why? than let's say D1,2and3 is out for dozen of years, I have 2000+ hours on each and still didn't found everything (items) D4 is out 3 months or so and I have feeling I've got everything...
Even if they are releasing unfinished or broken versions physically, I'll always buy disc if it is available. If not, I'm always considering buying and rather wait for physical (Baldur 3 for example).
