@dasd2 IDK about that . I haven't play the Trails in the sky trilogy or the crossbell games.
I have only played Cold Steel 1 and currently on 2, and yet I find the story, character cast and gameplay of the Cold Steel games, more enjoyable and intriguing than Persona 5.
The only aspect that Persona 5 has it beat in, is the graphics, visual representation and the social bonding events imo.
@Royalblues It's cool to have ***** takes some times, so I can forgive you. But using this platform to take a piss at the game is stupid. If you don't like how a game plays, fine, then stop going in news articles relating to that game just to bad mouth it.
FYI, the FGC is better now then ever, you boomers can go find a new hobby, you'll aren't going to change nothing, lol.
If you think Strive is the most boring fighting game you have played or watch, than you haven't played much fighting games.
I just finished Trails of Cold Steel 1 yesterday. That ending was great.
It being my first Trails game, I can already see that the world building for this games are both incredible immense and very immersive.
I enjoyed the gameplay loop and characters more than in person5 royal. At first the characters and relationships may come off as tropey, but the more you spend time with them, the more you learn about their other side. The turn-based system in TOCS 1 seems more free-form than in Megami Tensei games.
I also love how the narrative of TOCS1 is told. The story and its narrative is played like a novel. The pacing is quite slow, but the payoffs are worth it.
Please just make a normal hero shooter, stop with the battle royal bs.
The only entertaining hero shooter alive right now is Paladins. We need more quality hero shooters, and devs that have the passion to keep updating and balancing the game frequently to keep it fresh( blizzard, I am looking at you).
@MFTWrecks All I know is that I enjoyed the characters in Uncharted way more.
It is very ironic and alarming when Nathan Drake, the generic action adventure man persona, feels less generic and more genuine than Lara Croft in the new trilogy.
I hate how modern day gamers think they are owed anything. If you haven't payed for the product, then the devs owe you nothing. Thus the game would be talked about be the devs, in due time.
It's just a April fools joke that every Japanese dev is doing. Both of you are the silly ones for getting upset at them for it.
@Korgon Yeah, DS5 is bad for fighting games, which extends to the PS5 itself to, with it having the most input delay of any platform for Strive and KOF15.
Ps4 pro is the best playstaion to play fighting games in now.The DS4 is also the best playstion controller for fighting games, the DS5 for me has the Xbox problem.
It is slower pace then Strive, it doesn't have as many system mechanics as Strive for you to learn, It has optional directional inputs( meaning you don't have to do quarter circles and the lot to do your special moves), It is much more ground based than Strive like SF5 is, and it has better netcode than both SF5 and DOA.
@ShogunRok TBH, MK11, killer instinct, Skullgirls and power rangers have been doing rollback+crossplay for sometime now.
But Guilty Gear Strive, as a Japanese fighting game dev, setting this standards will be far more impactful for the fighting game genre in the coming future.
@Travisemo007 I didn't say the gameplay was like Strive, I said it's visuals were borrowed from xrd, which was the Guilty Gear game before Strive.
I played the DNF beta, and the pacing was a bit slower than Strive. DNF also doesn't have airdashing. If you want a recent fighting game that's faster than Strive, you can checkout Melty blood type lumina and kof 15( closer to street fighter in terms of gameplay.).
Or you can try Blazblue CF on PC,since it has rollback and you can find people on there. You can also try Guilty Gear ac+r, the Guilty Gear before xrd, a blazblue fan would feel right at home,plus it has rollback on PC.
@Jaz007 I agree. I have always said that Aloy was your typical generic adventurer heroine.
Gender swap her, and you would realise how plain and boring her Character is.
The only praise I see people giving her is that she is a female character, that isn't sexualised or made to attractive(as if this is now a negative).
She feels very artificial compared to other main characters, like Kratos, Arthur Morgan, Cloud, Peter Parker, Miles Morales, and ironically Nathan Drake, the walking action movie stereotype.
Aloy funny enough, reminds me of Lara from Tomb Raider.
@Zuljaras TBH, besides oversexaulization, it is the norm for female lead characters in action and/or adventure games to not have any romantic relationships at all, and if they do to, it's usually not of the opposite sex anyway.
So yeah, I haven't yet played the sequel,but I doubt you have to worry about Aloy getting a boyfriend or a husband 😅.
@nessisonett It's for the best players for the whole of last year, most of you are suffering from recency bias. Messi has only been a PSG player for the last 3 months.
Let me put it this way, Messi in the whole of last year achieved more than both Benzema and Salah, there is a reason why he was top two for both Ballon'dor and FIFA's best.
Salah has only been great this season, but Benzema has been very consistent the whole year.
Bandai it's not really rocket science by now, but please just give Arcsys to make a proper fighting game for any of the many anime ips you have locked up.
I mean imagine a Bleach, One piece or Naruto game like dragon ball fighter Z.
I can only dream, but until than I don't think I will waste money on any anime ip game that is not a real fighting game, unless Bandai does the impossible and supply us with a good single player game for an anime ip that isn't arena fighter.
@Juanalf Speak for yourself, because I for one wanted it, and I am hyped that this game can finally be played on Morden systems and PC. Even better that it is the arcade sxclusuve version of the game, never saw a system release.
Let's hope it has rollback netcode, so that I can actually play it online if I buy it. I hope it sells well so that they can make another one for Persona 5

Re: DNF Duel Drops in June for PS5, PS4
@Korgon You should give DNF a shot.
It is slower pace then Strive, it doesn't have as many system mechanics as Strive for you to learn, It has optional directional inputs( meaning you don't have to do quarter circles and the lot to do your special moves), It is much more ground based than Strive like SF5 is, and it has better netcode than both SF5 and DOA.

If it wasn't dragonball and Arcsys didn't make it look so good, the game would've been long dead by now.
We honestly shouldn't have to demand for basic online features in 2022.

No need to encourage this behavior.
