>No upgrade path from PS4 >No save transfer from PS4 >Full price, again
Yeah.. Glad to see you actually mentioning that. Still such a scummy move. Such a ridiculous lazy cash grab. And worst part is, its gonna sell. Atlus always get away with crap like this.
Fantastic article to read!
Accessibility over the last few years has taken such a huge step forward, and its amazing. Nowadays you are even seeing indie devs adding accessibility to their games, even with a limited budget. It's so fantastic to see. Sometimes its even just the small things that can make a difference, if someone can play a game or not.
(Still hope more devs add font text-size to their games as well however. This is another thing that always seem to be missing)
Didn't have much faith in this tbh. But after watching that trailer? It looks pretty damn good and faithful to the games. Actually excited for this now.
The fact that the devs has to speak out about this is RIDICULOUS. And people wonder why more and more devs are disabling comments on social media. They are literally being forced to do cause of crap like this.
Its better to be honest and delay it, then to release it a mess and then fix it as time goes on. Seem like the right call if they aren't confident enough in how it is now.
That's some impressive numbers honestly for what used to be a niche series (can't really say that anymore). Curious to know how big a % the west adds to that number. Especially considering marketing for the games in the west has been... Not great.
I know some people are up in arms with the "You have ruined the games with the awful new look!" etc. But I personally think it looks amazing. Actually feels like Konami is putting some serious effort into it. Can't wait to replay them!
They better be free if you already purchased them. And no, not taking a cheap discount to upgrade. Already paid once, not paying again. But I really doubt its gonna be free.
Honestly expected it to be out in 2023. But not January. The fact we had no date for ages and only a release year so it pointed towards they weren't sure if they could be done by 2022. But something to look forward to!
Such a weird decision. But can only assume they actually messed around with it and somehow made it work while working on the PS5 version. But glad that people without a PS5 can get to enjoy it as well.
Gave the demo a shot, and im actually very much enjoying it. But I do agree with what some people say, the graphics are not good, especially if you play on a PS5. Can definitely feel and see its a low budget game.
After all the bs with Kimura agency, I really do hope this ends up being legit. Similar to Yakuza, more people really do deserve to play Judgment as well.
Still no interest in the game. But glad to see CDPR realized it just isn't worth it for last-gen (sucks for those without PS5 however!). Clearly wanna avoid running into the same disaster once more.
Gave New Genesis a go. Sure looks and runs better then OG PSO2, but its just as dull and grindy. Unfortunately not very fun and honestly not very friendly. So much stuff that barely gets explained and things that don't get explained at all. Honestly expected with New Genesis they would do better, but it just feels like PSO2 with new paint.
Its nice to see so much content in the package. But that really also makes you even more worried about the price. Surely all of that stuff would increase the cost. But again, its nice to see an actual package with basically everything.
Sony's logic makes no sense. Game got okay reviews. Don't want to make a sequel. BUT want to spend millions on a movie instead? Not like we have a ton of movies that does the EXACT same thing as the game does.
So they wasted time and just put a band-aid over it. Cool.
How about they actually do something about it instead? The store is such a ***** show with all the cheap quiet literally garbage games. Meanwhile there are legit, cheap good games being buried under it at all. There's no standard here. ZERO quality control.
I really do hope he get his way. I'd love for a Ghost movie, with an entire Japanese cast. The entire setting is incredible, and honestly feels fitting for a movie. But he is also right I feel. Without English he probably won't be getting a good budget.
We'll see how it goes. Hopefully Sony isn't gonna be stupid.
Shame they dropped the ball with this. Sure they dropped retail price on release. But would have done better as a F2P game, or as a perma mode for Siege itself. Its fun. But after 2-3 hours you have quiet literally played the entire game and seen everything it has to offer.
What a wonderful video to watch. Really seem like such a friendly and fun workplace. Also I like how they mention being able to balance work and personal life. Hope they get their proper breakthrough soon, cause everything they have released so far has been incredible. And for some reason, tons of people ignore them (probably cause VR, but still..)
Its cool they are doing this, even if its not really needed imo. 14 is definitely one of the easier MMOs to get into, especially with how solo focused it is, outside of Dungeons/Raids. The team does such an amazing job at making this as approachable as it possible can be, while still being true to itself.
Arcsys has always done a phenomenal job with trailers. But these last few years they have really stepped up their game. This is no exception. Gorgeous and really well done.
Don't worry, won't blame you! It's hard to tell if its paid or not when they don't really give any info other then the short announcement. And when you find info they all say differently lol
Sucks the upgrade isn't free, but I also get developers can't keep doing it. Hopefully its a cheap upgrade.
Also.. If there's a new version releasing, I wonder if its gonna be crazy expensive just like Tekken 7 (not-so)Definitive Edition or actually decently priced.
But excited to see this with rollback netcode. It was definitely needed.

Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying the DualSense Edge PS5 Controller, Now We Have a Price?
Absolutely not. Paying that much for a controller is ludicrous.
Re: DualSense Edge PS5 Controller Is Coming Soon, and It's Pricey
Yep. That's insane. Expected it to be expensive. But even that was higher then I expected.
Surely they are gonna sell them cheaper without all the unnecessary extra stuff. (right?!)
Re: Dead Space's Jaw-Dropping PS5 Remake Adds Extra Exploration

Re: Onimisha Finally Returns... As a Netflix Anime
It does make me wonder if Capcom might be looking into bringing back the games.
As far as the anime goes? I really don't like the art-style. Was the same with Dragon's Dogma one. But im sure there's people who will enjoy it.

Re: Random: YouTuber Exposed As Embargo Breaking Video Game Insider
He's a jackass. Simple. What he did straight up screws over others. Now publishers are gonna be even more strict with who they talk with and it sucks.
Hope for his sake he has a good lawyer, cause I can't see this is gonna be ignored by the publishers.

Re: Square Enix Action RPG Valkyrie Elysium's Demo Out Now on PS5, PS4
Gave the demo a shot, and im actually very much enjoying it. But I do agree with what some people say, the graphics are not good, especially if you play on a PS5. Can definitely feel and see its a low budget game.
Re: Square Enix Action RPG Valkyrie Elysium's Demo Releases Tomorrow on PS5, PS4
Good call on SE for doing a demo. The reception for this game seem very mixed. So allowing people to try first, is always welcome.
Re: Judgment, Lost Judgment Rated for PC, Could Be a Good Sign for Series' Future

Re: Classic Action RPG Tales of Symphonia Is Back for More on PS4 in Early 2023
So freaking happy to see this. Always happy for more Tales, even if older, and Symphonia is incredible.
Also as a heads up for those interested: Physical Chosen Edition can be pre-ordered from Bandai's website.
Re: Wii Exclusive Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Heads West on PS5, PS4 Next Year
@LiamCroft Ah god dammit. Hoped they had learned from last time, but seem not. Here's hoping for another Asia English release then.
Re: Wii Exclusive Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Heads West on PS5, PS4 Next Year
It feels unreal that Koei Tecmo actually did listen to the fan demand. Always happy for more Project Zero!
Now the question is: Are we getting a physical release in the west with this one. I sure hope so.

I honestly don't see the connection between this and Tsushima. And comparing these two just feels wrong.

Its cool they are doing this, even if its not really needed imo. 14 is definitely one of the easier MMOs to get into, especially with how solo focused it is, outside of Dungeons/Raids. The team does such an amazing job at making this as approachable as it possible can be, while still being true to itself.

Sucks the upgrade isn't free, but I also get developers can't keep doing it. Hopefully its a cheap upgrade.
