Re: UK Sales Charts: Business as Usual for Horizon Forbidden West in First Place

@SuperPotato316 No because the level layout is completely different. Astrobot (at least that PS5 one) has linear levels whereas SMO has more open levels. Also the movement of those games is entirely different and movement is obviously a crucial part of plattformers. I wouldn't even call SM Odyssey and Galaxy the same because their level design and movement is completely different

Those open world games with with tons of ? marks, similar combat, similar movement, similar quest structure on the other side feel (obviously) very similar to me.

@SuperPotato316

"Yes, they're open world games but that's about it."

Nope,structure of missions are similar, dialog with NPCs are very similar, combat is action based, tons of ? on the map
I even remember when they showed of GoT before release and they were infiltrating an enemy base and it showed that yellow arrow that an enemy is about to spot you and I thought "That's exactly like in AC"

@4kgk2 I played all the way through AC Origins, Ghost of Tsushima and Horizon Zero Dawn and for me they felt the very same but with different setting
Origins had ancient egypt setting, GoT feudal(?) japan and HZD post-apocalyptic robot setting, but other than that they felt the same to me story- and gameplay-wise

It's fine that you feel different about those games, this just just my opinion on those

Re: Soul Hackers 2 (PS5) - SMT on a Budget

Good, now I know that I don't need to buy this

I really liked SMT5 and I love the Persona series but everything I've seen so far about SH2 didn't convince me since it looked so generic and edgy.

I considered getting it if it reviews really well but a 7/10 (or a 75/100 on Metacritic) is a "I'll just skip it" in this case

Re: Monster Taming RPG Temtem Reminds Us Its Big 1.0 Update Is Out Very Soon

@Happymoogle So I'm a huge Pokemon fan but I was heavily dissapointed by SwSh so I tried out Temtem when it was in beta and tbh it was really boring. The music wasn't anything special, the Temtem designs were meh for the most part, way to many battles (it felt like there's a new trainer every 5 meters) etc

The only thing I appreciated was the lack of RNG like accuracy, confusion, paralysis and all that stuff that is in Pokemon
