It sucks. But I personally appreciate they are being up front about the delay and saying it won't be out this year instead giving us a date only to delay again and again, or just being silent about it. No point rushing it. And like he said, fans have high expectations after the first. So its the right call. Still excited for it though!
Super down for this. Seem to be a successor to Crystar which was a fantastic game, ignoring the very repetitive dungeons and enemies. Also it has Risa Tsumugi. That alone makes it a need.
Yup. Seem to have fixed the soft-locking with Dragoon Magic and some audio issues. Glad to see they fixed it so fast. But should have been noticed from the start.
Dead Space 2? Fine. But drop the ridiculous price point the first remake got. Dead Space 3? Nope. That game was terrible. Pretend it didn't happen and make a brand new one instead then.
@johncalmc Ah fair enough. I just dislike building in any games in general and it looks clunky to me in this. But judging by the review itself and what you just said it may not be that way. So may give in and try the game after all.
Im still on the fence on this. Diablo 3 left a bad taste in my mouth with the always online. So have a feeling this is gonna be the same. (Heck. Overwatch 2 had issues too..)
Also I really miss the older days when you didn't have to PAY to get beta access and devs gave people access for free cause they wanted help to stress test their game.
Really liking what im reading about this. Was skeptical about it cause EA. But how important is the building aspect of the game? Is it required or would it be possible to get by without using it too much?
I saw The Legend of Dragoon and squealed. I cannot believe Sony actually remember that game. That is such an amazing game. Really hope it can be purchased outside of the PS+ Catalogue.
I am personally loving everything they showed and explained throughout the entire video. Yes, adding more mechanics may make the game even more daunting for newcomers, but changing some older mechanics to make it easier is gonna help combat that. Gonna be interesting to see how it turns out.
Not the biggest fan of Nina's new look. But do very much like playstyle she's showing.
Honestly hope they ban the people who is confirmed to be using third party tools. If you need ANY mod to tell you what to do or whats about to happen, you don't deserve the clear.
Its neat to see more trials. But uh. This isn't the game to do it for. You barely get through the tutorial. You don't get to see much of what it has to offer.
Played the first week or two when the game released. Dropped it after playing ranked cause I knew something felt off about it. It was horrible, and generally speaking the community for once agreed on it. And yet it took Blizzard till now to acknowledge how terrible it was. But the damage has already been done.
Don't click the article then? Also you say you work for a living, yet take time out of your day to complain about something as silly as this. Also spoiler: Other people work too. With your logic, nobody could EVER publish any article ever. The world doesn't revolve around you.
Really enjoyed it. Feel like they are doing a impressive job so far. Let’s see if it last.
@Bentleyma it’s fair enough to think like that. But you also need to remember not everybody can or want to play video games. The show is aimed at a new audience.
Can be done solo or co-op, yeah. But its more arcade-like compared to World. Easier to jump and in out mission co-op and generally easier to find and kill the targets.
Said this for years now, but the RE Engine is magic. It looks incredible and the fact it actually can manage to make their games run really damn good on current gen and even Switch is impressive.
Well, at least this review put the soundtrack as a pro. Nintendolife put it as a con and called some of it repetitive.
That said, glad to see more people finally get to experience probably one of top JRPGs out there. Also glad to see Atlus kept it at 60 FPS. While not a huge deal for a game like this, it does make it feel much better.
Good to see the PS5 version is getting the same great game that Switch and PC got. Really wanted to double dip for this version but no physical means no purchase for me. Also still mindboggling no Sunbreak on release.
Its cool to see they are open to more, and that's good.
But maybe calm down a bit and see how the current project turns out before getting into anything else.
I really wanted to get Zero and Azure when that releases on PS4. But ended up getting Zero on Switch, and boy am I glad I did. The way Falcom is dealing with this is stupid. And as much as I hate a lot of the BS NISA has been pulling as of late, this is definitely not on them. Feel bad they are taking the flak for this.
Can imagine Azure is gonna go through the exact same deal. PS4 getting the short end of the stick on that too. But we shall see.
Tried the demo and it didn't really click with me like Fairy Tail did, oddly enough. But still am glad to see another fantastic game adaptation of an anime/manga!
I would love to play this again. But no upgrade path once again? Nah. Screw the NISA greed. Also this game really didn't need a PS5 version for any reason lol
Its nice seeing some high praise. But gonna judge for myself. People also said TLOU2 was incredible, yet I found that lackluster compared to the first. It's not gonna click with everybody!
Really don't like the design of it. But hey, im sure its designed that way for a reason, and if it means more people get to enjoy gaming, im all for it. Good on Sony!
This is such fantastic news. These games had so many various editions and bundle it was actually ridiculous. So making it this simple is a brilliant call. Other devs/publisher should take note of this.
Being on multiplatform definitely helped with that. But with that said, yeah, I do agree it deserves it. Plus this probably one of the most accessible From Software games even if you're not good at Souls like games.
Only gonna pick these up if physical is gonna be available at regular retailers. Refuse to pay overprice on SE's own store + customs on top of it all (despite being a supposedly EU store...)
PlayStation has so many icon titles that could use a reboot and they went with this? Not complaining as Fantavision was great, but just seem a bit odd. Lol
Its bad to see. But not a huge deal, as you really need to look hard for it to even notice it. Can't imagine SE is gonna ignore that, they kinda have to get rid of it.
Fans Are At War seem like a understatement. Fans are at war over literally anything nowadays. Is the boxart boring? Sure. But chances are you are gonna look at it 2-3 times total then never again.
I really like the combat. But the rest almost feels like a Ubisoft open world game. Also my god, the main character needs to STOP talking none-stop, and swearing. The swearing feels so out of character and unnecessary.
Im sure its gonna come to PS5 eventually. But like Hades its most likely gonna do Early Access on PC > full Release, Xbox/switch and then PS5.
I just know I am so stoked for this. Bought Hades during Early Access and loved it. Will do the same here. The story, lore, the characters, the banter.. Everything was just so extremely well written and acted.
He's an absolute idiot. And honestly a bit worrying how a complete random stranger just managed to walk up to the stage like that and no one really did anything about it. Lucky all he did was doing a idiotic speech. Could had been so much worse.

Re: Do You Want Dead Space 2 and 3 PS5 Remakes? Time to Tell EA
Dead Space 2? Fine. But drop the ridiculous price point the first remake got.
Dead Space 3? Nope. That game was terrible. Pretend it didn't happen and make a brand new one instead then.
Re: Sony Adds Nine More PSVR2 Games to the Launch Window
This is honestly a very impressive amount of PSVR2 games for the launch window. Very nice to see.

Re: Wanted: Dead (PS5) - A Fascinating Mess of an Action Game
>Audio mixing is a disaster
That is putting it mild lol. Some of the sound effects can make you deaf with how ridiculous loud they are, and some of them come out of nowhere.
On a positive note: You can at least feel the team had a blast creating the game even if the game isn't the best from a player perspective.
Re: Tekken 8's New Heat Mechanic Explained with Gameplay Footage as Nina Returns

Re: Metal Gear Rising 10th Anniversary 'Event' Teased
I just want a MGR remaster/remake. That game was such a huge surprise and more people deserves to play it.
Re: Third PS Plus Premium Title Updated with Trophy Support
Ok. While this isn't for me, its awesome to see this happening. Hopefully they keep it up.

Re: Deathverse: Let It Die Going Offline to Be Redeveloped
Lol. That didn't last very long. But its a good call I suppose? Its pretty boring compared to Let it Die and definitely not optimized at all.
