I finally jumped the guy and ordered a PSVR 2 on Wednesday. Then found out it was coming Thursday. I was SO excited. It came and even my wife who is a non-gamer was really interested to see it and maybe try it out.
The next 2+ hours were filled with me trying to get into even one game. I couldn't get a demo to work. No problem, I installed Moss already, let's give that a go. Couldn't get to the title screen beyond the prompts. Loaded Horizon. No go.
Figured out I have a rare issue where the Right sense controller works in menus but does not work in games. I literally can't play anything. PS customer service was no help (it's a known issue, we'll fix it but who knows when) and PS direct said it could take 10 business days to even process it.
I'm so discouraged. I was so excited and now I'm debating whether I want to get it replaced or if I should just return it.
I feel like that feeds into the article - I was the first of my friends to try it and I had a good platform to sell it to them but now they're just seeing my disappointment. If it was in-store, I could probably get it replaced right away.
@ShogunRok I mean, he wasn't the hardest in the game, but I felt Margit was harder in Elden Ring compared to a lot of the next bosses you face. Sometimes it's just a reality check and you need to build momentum before taking on a bunch. I haven't played this game so I can't comment. Just doesn't seem like an unusual thing to think
I’ve been waiting on this one for forever but I loved it so will still get it. I have a switch but I got the plat for the original and would rather have it on PlayStation
@thefourfoldroot1 @Max_the_German it's a continually updated list. It's the list of games that they've reviewed so far. They said it would take a while to get through all the games.
For everyone asking about Fallout 76, I played in July/August and got kinda hooked. Overplayed and gave it a long break before I go back to it. Had surprisingly good amt of fun. Did most stuff solo. You can even join a public team for free fast travel and perks but none of the actual joining up with people. Ask me if you have any questions and I’ll get back to you later.
@Uncharted2007 I don’t think red will be unplayable? I think that was only because of what it would take to program his character for how short of an appearance he made.
@UltimateOtaku91 it’s SUPPOSED to be different. I read it’s like Junkenstein’s revenge 2 and centers around Sombra. I guess we’ll see if it’s basically the same.
I'm very pro Sony but let's be real. They're not even giving free PS4 to PS5 upgrades on upcoming games. I really don't see them doing a remaster of the original Horizon for free.
My favorite announcement of the day and I'm so excited it's coming to PS5! I'll definitely get it on there. I loved this game so much, it's my favorite switch game.
@Steve30000 it doesn’t work because it thinks my sub has expired. I tried doing that and thought it worked but I ended up getting charged full price for the game. I had to get a refund 😅
I have a really weird glitch that has happened to me recently. I upgraded to ps plus premium for 10 days (the amount of time left on my plan). I decided on day nine to downgrade to extra and made the change. My plan never renewed. I’ve been placed into some weird tier called ps plus gifting tier_30 7 days.
I can play ps plus extra games and can download more (maybe premium too, haven’t tried) but I can’t play or download essential games and my whole library of free games is unavailable due to my sub being expired. In some places it says my sub is expired and in other it says active.
Ask PlayStation wasn’t helpful but pushed me to live chat support. No one can give me any answers and they apparently can’t cancel my sub (so I can renew correctly). I’m not having to pay for the extra games right now which sounds nice but I have the money needed in my ps wallet and I just want my sub to go back to normal. And I can’t add Crash 4 to my library. It’s been almost 3 weeks 😔
@Deoxyr1bose thankfully, I can't even tell it's the voice of Sophia from Strikers. Even though I also loved Bernadetta in Three Houses, the only voice I can really recognize is Erica Lindbeck.
I want to say it’s free to play because they promised PVE and it’s not going to be ready. I definitely think they’ll charge for the single player part of the game 😅
@huyi Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved the game. But after 3 months of being my big TV game, I'm ready to move onto the next game after my vacation this coming week (Guardians of the Galaxy) and there's only so much space on the PS5 so I took the opportunity to clear up some space haha
After 3 months of playing on Performance mode, I literally just finished and got the plat and deleted the game this week. Crazy timing. Not going to reinstall just to try it but I guess that'll be good for any eventual dlc.
I LOVED this show and honestly thought this was the game show I could win big money on when I got older. Didn’t the show get cancelled a long time ago? This feels really irrelevant 😂
I was actually really excited about getting this on plus but this endgame only crap is one of the worst plus offerings I’ve seen since I’ve been subscribed. And that was on the PS3 😅
@ShogunRok ok gotcha. Wasn’t sure if it would look much nicer (on a non 4K tv). I saw some graphics mods that can bring the visuals up but those obviously disable trophies. I appreciate the heads up though! 😁
No one has said anything so it’s probably a no - but the Persistence also got a non VR version right? Is that an extra mode or are they separate games?
@OneManDroid you could only put it in rest mode. This is a wise change, Save and quit is the only thing it needed. If I’m playing Returnal and my friends get online, I wouldn’t be able to play with them without losing my save. Now I’d be able to play a multiplayer game with them and jump back in without losing progress. There’s still no permanent save, which would have broken the game. With 2-3 hour runs, it was a huge commitment to do a full run without anything losing progress.
@KingPev I’ve been watching some videos on it and am definitely interested. I noticed the version with all the dlc is 7.99, so I’ll probably snag that one.
I just didn’t want to pay 24.99 for it considering how old it was 😅
@SoulsBourne128 it sounds like her perks are pretty game changing or game breaking. She can set boon totems to take over dull totems and make them beneficial to the survivors. One per totem per perk but if it gets negated by the killer, you can reapply it. Sounds interesting but hopefully not too strong (as someone who only plays survivor these days)
@StylesT they said they tried to do it for single players. That’s why you can only have one friend with you, they wanted to keep the single player vibe.
I really want to play Deathloop but have been busy with other games and haven't paid yet. I haven't paid full price on a game since Returnal. That's not to say it isn't worth it but I game a little less than before and I've been mostly playing ps plus or digital titles I got on sale with a psn gift card I had
I have Apple Music over Spotify and would absolutely love this! I originally had Spotify but dumped it for Playstation Music - I actually loved their service! Gave Spotify another chance when they made a partnership but just preferred Apple Music in the end.
I'm enjoying Like a Dragon - currently on the final chapter. I've really only died during one battle in the entire game, although there were some definite challenging sections. I died in that battle like 3 times (the infamous chapter 12 difficulty spike). So that was surprising but I do love the game. Love the characters, love the side stories. It's my first Yakuza game.

@Hoodie718 do you know what ultimately fixed it for you? I went up and down that thread trying fixes for 2+ hours and nothing suggested worked.
Re: Soapbox: PSVR2 Already Feels Like It's on Course for Failure
@Hurblyburbly I'm probably going to do that, especially because I've bought a VR game or two that I know won't get refunded. It's just annoying
