Astro, MHW and Where Winds Meet look pretty unique.

Erm, I don't think anyone would feel missing out on a tech demo.

Damn, I actually will get one if it was available near me.

@Zenos Hard disagree. We have FF14 already and people who like that would be playing FF14. We don't need the same game over and over.

16 is great in the way it is.

Will I know about what moments are captured and where and how are others gonna view them?

@Robinsad I know right, they have the way paved and everything's in their favor yet, they can still mess it up so bad.

Online subscription for games in itself is not a good business model, unlike shows and music. It actually cannibalizes the good games/devs if that's the only thing a platform does.

What PS is doing is probably the best form of gaming online sub.

@Kidfunkadelic83 Damn, you took the words right out of my mouth, even down to the examples you gave.

Tunic! <3 I've been waiting for it to appear on PS+ for so long.

@Shepherd_Tallon Exactly. If anything, they've even gained some reputation of "we listen to our players".

I'm sure there are some real damage done to a small number of fans but compared to the publicity and the reputation without spending any real money... I just hope they won't repeat this.

Does anyone suspect this is actually part of the marketing campaign?

They've gained massive amount of attention without spending a dime and anyone who plays games would have heard of the game by now.

Tunic saves the day!

10.
It is the top game for its category/this genre of games. Also, I don't judge a game based on how "perfect" it is but how much fun I've had.
It's also why I really love Nintendo games.

@itsfoz I'm 10 hours in. The combat is getting even more satisfying, the story and characters got more interesting; but they are all built-on/expanded from the base in which the demo gives a pretty good sense of it.

If you are not into this type of fast-paced action games (as much as I love this game, I'm fully aware that no game is for everyone), I guess the main game won't change your mind.

@BIG3 I can't agree more.

Even for someone like me who's not very good at action games, I've still having a blast playing the story mode.

@Gamer83 Personally, it still does. The main differences that I've noticed (at least by comparing the modes in demo) are enemies do less damage, have less HP and don't deal damage when I parry successfully. In normal mode, they still do some damage when you parry unless it's a perfect parry.

Other aspects like their speed, movements and density seem to be the same. Though I've only been playing the story mode in the full version of the game, there might be other differences in the full version.

I'm not good at action games at all but I'm still having lotsa fun playing the story mode of this game.

This is such a great action game.

@ATaco Absolutely. That's his only job and he failed miserably.

Yes, but I haven't even finished the main game yet and I'm still playing FF7 Rebirth.

Not to mention that my preordered copy of Stellar Blade is coming next week. LOL!

I'm still playing FF16 and Rebirth so I guess I won't ever get to the other FF games.

They are among my favorite studios.

FF7 Rebirth and nothing is even close yet.

I expect/hope Stellar Blade is able to compete with it for my GotY this year.

It really depends on the type of games.

Action/open-world games have to be 60fps minimum or I'd get motion sickness. It's a real problem.

But turn-based or 2D games, I really don't mind 30fps.

@GoingTheDist There's a free demo. You can decide for yourself instead of hearing from random strangers.

@thechetearly Oh ya, probably location spoilers. Guess I'd have to wait too.

Is there any major spoilers in the documentary if I haven't finished the game yet?

@Smithylfc2008 I'm the girlfriend (actually wife) who's buying to look at hot women in pretty clothes in this case. LOL.

Women appreciate beauty too! We are not blind.

@AK4tywill Bait and switch. :/

I still want to play the game but I'm gonna wait for a big sale.

I don't know about the others but this game is my GotY contender so far and I play many RPGs and ARPGs.

The sales number in Japan is definitely very odd.

QB is really so much fun and each game doesn't take forever.

I thought they are releasing a new peach/beige controller when I only saw the pic. LOL. That's a nice color too.

@BranJ0 They (or games like this) will get consistent sales over time instead of front-loading the sales.

Straight to my GoT.

@C25CLOUD This.

Anecdotally, I don't know anyone who bought a physical copy of Rebirth among my circle of friends.

Sifu and Hello Neighbour 2! This month is great!

@Matroska I haven't found any part particularly tedious or brutal, even including the supposedly tedious staircase part. (Ya I opted this way. LOL)

It's probably because I really like the characters, combat and, I don't play like a full day straight each time. I think my longest sessions are on the weekends, about 4 hours each time.

I only started playing Remake because of the Twin Pack. Can't believe I put this amazing game off for so many years.

May be but it's not like most people care.

People play games to relax and have fun; not to determine if Sony is using a fair model to rank its popular games.

@Pat_trick I can't stop laughing at this image that you conjured up in my mind.

Went straight to preorder it halfway through the demo when I wasn't even planning on playing to play it on launch.

But I do dislike the motion blur and how I can't turn it off. :/

@Bentleyma Same here.

P3 is one of my all time fav games and I'm so happy to see that the remake has done it justice AND the public receives it so well.

OMG OKAMI 2 please!

@AndyKazama Why? The gameplay looks fun and it has cute waifus. The combo almost guarantees attention.

My most anticipated RPG in 2024 so far.

As much as I buy mostly digital now, any company that disrespect people for collecting physical games is not gonna even be the one that I buy digital from.

So ya, Ubisoft. Get comfortable not even getting money from people like me.

@PixelDragon It would have sold 22,000,006 copies if not for the boycott.

Well deserved, the game is in my top 10 games of 2023.

What about "Where Winds Meet"?

It seems to be one of the most unique and gorgeous upcoming action RPGs.

@UltimateOtaku91 Same.
My top 3 RPGs in 2023 are BG3, FF16 and Hogwarts Legacy.

Can't wait! It's one of my most anticipated games in 2024.

@UltimateOtaku91 Sorry, I didn't specify that it's medieval-inspired high-fantasy RPG.
Of course, I'm super hyped about those anime/JRPGs too.
