The update is fine. My hope is Bethesda switches engines and once more delivers at the quality of generations before. It's just simply not possible with their current toolset.
Yaaaaay! I was waiting for this upgrade before finishing the game. Excited to dive back in! No, it's not the best game ever, but I had a good time with it.
Dead Cells, along with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Sifu, falls into that rare basket of games I absolutely love, but am absolutely not nearly good enough to beat lol Stoked to see what they do next!
@puddinggirl I'm just waiting to watch it until I finish Hahaha I don't want to risk anything (even location spoilers). I never played the original FF7 and FF7Remake was my first FF ever. So stoked to watch this at some point.
The amount of effort it takes to make a game multi-platform (specifically for xbox) and how little they sell compared to being just on Playstation is just simply not worth it. It's easy math.
Played the recent Beta (or Alpha? idk what it's called) and boy oh boy was it boring. I feel super bad for the team that worked on this for so long only for most of us to just crap on it.
I managed to play Part 2 not knowing that you get to play as another character (not naming names in case you too don't know this) and it was suuuuuch a sick surprise.
I remember coming to what I thought was the end and saying to my wife "huh...great game, but pretty short" and then moving to the second half of the game totally being blown away.
So, I really did not like GTA5. I found the characters to be really unlikeable. Loved GTA4 and of the little I’ve seen from GTA6, they’re already more enjoyable main characters to me.
Very excited about this. I found the characters from GTA5 really unlikeable and tough to root for (I know I’m in the minority with that opinion lol). I’m 100% down for a more mature story with all the GTA silliness mixed in.
Count me as one of those! I haven’t played since it was available on iOS hahaha The original map and gameplay is seriously so fun. Definitely have been playing a few matches a day since the drop.
The biggest hurdle they have is onboarding new players. I think the Destiny universe looks super interesting, but after trying to get into it 3 seperate times now, I just find it way, way too daunting. Although, I'd imagine this is a similar issue for a lot of GAAS? Or maybe not?
I would hope, and assume, that Xbox pitching that all of those games are exclusive to their ecosystem would be counterproductive to them making boatloads of money. Game Pass is not, and will never be, profitable enough to cut the tap off to Playstation and Nintendo players.
I would hope that they'll only charge maybe $10 - $20 for the upgrade. To charge full price for a game that still holds up so, so well, would be honestly insane.
And to echo what everyone else has said, it is a shame that this seems to be what ND has been reduced to.
1. I would love to see more verticality. Maybe missions where you scale the side of a building using dope futuristic tech. 2. I wouldn’t mind if they pulled a RDR2 and the second game was before this timeline. 3. Maybe in another country entirely would be cool.
I've definitely had far, faaaaar more bugs with the 2.0 patch, but most of them haven't bothered me too much. Just started Phantom Liberty and it is sooooo sick.
That "distorted effect" thing was suuuuuch a pain. It took me a good few missions before it occurred to me that it was a bug. Thankfully some random reddit thread had the fix via the Brenden mission (no joke) lol
Wow, was not expecting that! So, perhaps it's a product that will do really well in markets other than Western? I love Playstation, but I absolutely do not get the appeal of this device.
Do people play actual games on their iPhones…? Not Angry Birds etc but like, classic style video games? It does not seem like it would be fun to play on a phone compared to a TV.

Re: Hands On: Fallout 4 Next-Gen Runs Great on PS5, But Some Old Problems Persist
The update is fine. My hope is Bethesda switches engines and once more delivers at the quality of generations before. It's just simply not possible with their current toolset.

Well deserved! I really liked this game.

Still deep in Rebirth!
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Has Sold Around 2 Million Copies, PS5 Player Data Suggests

Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst. Will definitely be waiting for reviews before picking it up.
Re: Poll: How Much Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?
If it's a combat heavy game, like GOW, I will do frame rate over graphics every time. However, I do love if both are an option.

Re: Sony Secures Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy as PlayStation Console Exclusives

Oh interesting…I did not like the fixed camera at ALL in the original. I’m intrigued!
Re: Ubisoft Is Committing to a Full Year of Skull and Bones Content

Re: The Last of Us 2 Dates Its Grounded Documentary for 2nd February

So bummed for Rocksteady. I’d love to know the presale figures for this game vs past ones. Can’t imagine it stacks up well.
Re: GTA 6 Trailer Pulls 90 Million Views in 24 Hours, Sets New World Records
So, I really did not like GTA5. I found the characters to be really unlikeable. Loved GTA4 and of the little I’ve seen from GTA6, they’re already more enjoyable main characters to me.
Re: GTA 6 Trailer Out Now, 2025 Release Window Revealed
Very excited about this. I found the characters from GTA5 really unlikeable and tough to root for (I know I’m in the minority with that opinion lol). I’m 100% down for a more mature story with all the GTA silliness mixed in.
Re: Returnal Director Is Leaving Housemarque After 14 Years
Noooo!!!! Returnal is genuinely one of my favorite games ever. Can’t wait to see what he does next.
Re: Suicide Squad Backlash Doesn't Stop Warner Bros from Doubling Down on Live-Service Games
They are so screwed hahaha There is absolutely no more room for more of these type of games. I guess they’ll learn this the hard way.

Re: Another Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Update Available Now, Here Are the Patch Notes
I think I had 1 crash on my entire play through! Was fantastic.
Re: Interest in Destiny 2 Reportedly at an All-Time Low

Re: Get Alan Wake 2 Ready with Alan Wake: Flashback, Created in Fortnite
I...ah...what? Not sure how much overlap those two audiences have lol
Re: PS5, PS4 Players Will 'Remain Welcome' As Xbox Closes $69 Billion Activision Blizzard Buyout
I would hope, and assume, that Xbox pitching that all of those games are exclusive to their ecosystem would be counterproductive to them making boatloads of money. Game Pass is not, and will never be, profitable enough to cut the tap off to Playstation and Nintendo players.
Re: 15 PS5, PS4 Games Coming to PS Plus Extra, Premium in October 2023 Update
Definitely excited for Gotham Knights. I just love a Batman story honestly!
Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster Seems to Be Real

Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Sequel Will Be Spearheaded by the Team Behind Phantom Liberty and Update 2.0
1. I would love to see more verticality. Maybe missions where you scale the side of a building using dope futuristic tech.
2. I wouldn’t mind if they pulled a RDR2 and the second game was before this timeline.
3. Maybe in another country entirely would be cool.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Out Now on PS5, Addresses PS5 Save Corruption, Improves Performance, and More
I've definitely had far, faaaaar more bugs with the 2.0 patch, but most of them haven't bothered me too much. Just started Phantom Liberty and it is sooooo sick.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Expected to Drop Tomorrow, Addressing PS5 Save Corruption and More
That "distorted effect" thing was suuuuuch a pain. It took me a good few missions before it occurred to me that it was a bug. Thankfully some random reddit thread had the fix via the Brenden mission (no joke) lol
Re: Demand for PlayStation Portal Sky High in Japan, Pre-Orders Reportedly Sold Out
Wow, was not expecting that! So, perhaps it's a product that will do really well in markets other than Western? I love Playstation, but I absolutely do not get the appeal of this device.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Cinematic Teaches Us to Be Greater Together
Man oh MAN am I excited for this game.
As far as "who" Venom is in this Universe, my thoughts are either Kraven to make the transformation. Or, perhaps, Harry Osborn.
Re: Where to Pre-Order PlayStation Portal
I would love to understand the decision that led them to making this.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty?

Re: Poor Immortals of Aveum Sales Leads to Significant Lay-Offs

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 2.0, Phantom Liberty Stream Set for Thursday
Hoping the surprise is that 2.0 releases that day!
Re: Sifu's Superb Support Ends as Final Update Arrives on PS5, PS4
