Cant believe that no one has mentioned that this game is hard as balls. I beat most of the Souls games, Elden Ring, Sekiro, etc., but am still struggling with some of the bosses in this game! I'm only a few hours in. Maybe it gets easier as it goes?
Fun game but the progression system is awful. Leveling up feels like nothing at all. I've played for about 7 hours but would still only be on the first page of the battle pass. The battle pass has no free rewards.
Seems like a mistake since getting hooked on unlockables is where they should be making their money!
What is he even talking about? Does he think everybody is going to be playing on PC? I can't see my 12 year old niece playing on a gaming PC instead of a Switch. That's not going to happen unless PC can become a console-like experience at a console-like price point.
People are ridiculous. I played Alan Wake 2 on the base PS5, then played the DLC on the PS5 Pro. The Pro version was WAY better- basically the Fidelity version from the base PS5 at 60 FPS. It didn't have any major problems that weren't also on the already imperfect base version.
Worse than the base version on the PS5 Pro? That's crazy talk!!!
Not sure about the others, but I played Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Alan Wake 2 on PS5 Pro and they both look fantastic- WAY better than on PS5. Don't know what people are on about for those games in particular! People complain too much.
We don't need remasters of From games we need remakes. Keep on giving me remakes of the same quality that we saw in Demons Souls and I'll keep buying them!
Dark Souls Remake, Dark Souls 3 Remake, Bloodborne Remake... hell, I'd even buy a Dark Souls 2 Remake!
I am a VERY close reader, and all I can say is WHY ARE THERE NO GAMES RELEASED THIS YEAR?! They're missing Final Fantasy Rebirth, Stellar Blade, and Metaphor Re: Fantazio just for starters!
How BRAINDEAD are the Grammys to miss this year's best game soundtracks?!!?!?!
I tried this with my Pro, and as much as I was excited to see the new fangled ray tracing, it's really hard to stick with a 30 FPS mode when you get over 60 FPS at 4K.
I used to be a Quality Mode guy but with Pro it seems like 60 FPS is the best way to go!
Boy the people in this group sure are whiny. There have been LOADS of great games on the PS5 in the four year since it released. Sure, you could play most of them on the PS4, but do you really want to play at lower resolutions and lower framerates on a console that released eleven years ago?
I know the economy has been bad, but are people really that worried about spending $500 on a gaming machine that you can use for 8 years? Ouch! I'm glad I can actually afford my hobby. Seems like I'm in the minority on that one.
Well, I guess we can now all see that the PS5 Pro is what the PS5 SHOULD have been! We should have been calling the PS5 the PS4 Pro 2 and the PS5 Pro should be called The True PS5. Or at the very least we should now refer to the base PS5 as the PS5 Amateur.
Too bad it took so long but glad we finally got the The True PS5 in 2024! Now we can finally put the PS4 days behind us and start a new generation! I think it will be common practice for all future games to target 30 FPS on the PS5 Amateur and 60 FPS on The True PS5.
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare Baldur's Gate 3 has a performance mode and a fidelity mode. If other PS5 Pro games are any example I'm guessing the former fidelity mode will now run at 60 FPS. Sounds good to me!
@nessisonett naw man- I don't have to sell a kidney. Not sure what everybody's financial situations are but I've got a job. I can afford it easily, actually. I don't even make that much money but seems like if you work full time it's not something that's going to break the bank???
Man, that thing is beautiful! It's quickly become apparent that the PS5 Pro just makes PS5 games BETTER! The 30 FPS mode is better, the 60 FPS mode is better... even the machine itself looks better than the PS5 Amateur. Pro owners are gonna be feeling fine for the rest of this generation!!!
They should have just immediately made it free to play. The game wasn't that bad when you actually played it- can't imagine why they didn't give it a chance without that $40 price tag!
I like the game, but I wish it hadn't focused so much on lying. I think they could have called the game "Truthful P" and it would have been just as good.
Video game culture has gotten incredibly toxic, especially when it comes to the sickening practice of review bombing! These people will ruin review scores over trivial matters like required log ins or nerfing a weapon.

Re: Hand on Heart, Lies of P: Overture PS5 Story Trailer Is Incredibly Evocative
I love the game, but I wish P didn't have to lie so much. Couldn't it have been called The Truth of P just as effectively?

Re: New PlayStation Handheld Looking Even More Likely as Digital Foundry Backs Up Reports
$400? For a portable PS5? Is it just my imagination, or shouldn't a portable PS5 be MORE expensive than a non-portable version???
Re: Ubisoft FPS XDefiant Shutting Down, Not Accepting New Players

Re: Remedy Still Working on Alan Wake 2 PS5 Pro Patch Enhancements
