I was thinking of getting one or two of these games: Spongebob Squarepants: Battle For Bikini Bottom Rehydrated, Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End or The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt GOTY Edition. I have already completed Batman and The Witcher, but I am interested in their DLCs if one or both of them have DLC-related trophies? Out of the other games listed which do you think is the better game and worth playing over the other one, out of Spongebob & Uncharted 4? Thanks in advance.

I'm after Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (Deluxe Edition) next. Does anyone reckon it'll be worth it for someone coming from the Souls games? I've played a little of it and was satisfied with the mechanics, but didn't play enough to give an educated verdict. Anyway, is it similar enough to be thoroughly enjoyable? Or just a great game overall anyway, in which case I would get it anyway. I noticed some Uncharted elements thrown into the mix in the prologue as well, so that obviously differentiates it from Dark Souls ,somewhat.

@Draco_V_Ecliptic I agree completely with @RogerRoger and don’t have much to add, except to say that the Souls-like combat is a wee-bit toned down from the Souls games I played. I did Fallen Order on Jedi Master, so I image if you do the hardest difficulty of Grand Master then you’ll experience a close combat experience to the FromSoftware titles.
Although I would recommend Fallen Order to those who want a Souls-like with a more overt storyline and some Star Wars charisma, have you considered Nioh, Nioh 2, The Surge, The Surge 2, or Code Vein? I’ve played none of the them but all have the FromSoft inspiration from what I can tell and it sounds like you’re hungry for more of that.

@Draco_V_Ecliptic I’d say it’s closer to Sekiro in that it’s an action game, not an RPG. I enjoyed it enough to platinum the game, just technical issues held it back from being a really great game for me. That being said, it’s not as if the Souls games aren’t technical disasters on many fronts so perhaps that would give that certain janky flair the Souls games are known for.

Thinking of picking up Bayonetta after completing Jedi Fallen Order. Does anyone know if it's worth it? Would you say it's a bit of a come-down after STWJFO? The gameplay looks similar to the original God of War trilogy. Is it? On a side-note, I really enjoyed Ascension in that original series of GoW video games, but a fiendishly difficult puzzle put me off, even a Youtube walkthrough couldn't help me. Does Bayonetta have many puzzles? Is there a lot of story like in Jedi Fallen Order?
I am also interested in a game called 'The Forest' . What's that like? Would anyone recommend it?

@Kidfried I have played Nioh, seemed a bit bland and uninteresting compared to the Souls games, what did you reckon of it?

@Draco_V_Ecliptic Bayonetta is the quintessence of Platinum Games and the many difficulty levels let you play as you prefer, focusing on it's fast and brutal combat system. Puzzles? None, but you can customize the character buying weapons, accessories and weapons.
Vanquish is another must play among action games!
I've seen a couple of video reviews for Nexomon: Extinction which were rather positive compared the more middling mini review by ShogunRok on here and was just wondering if anyone here has some first hand experience with the game as I've heard it's already had a number of quality of life improvements to it?

@Draco_V_Ecliptic I really enjoyed Nioh as the weapon stance mechanic gave some good variety. The bosses were well designed and the level format worked fine.
They needed a greater array of enemy types but overall I liked it. That said, I’ve not felt the need to play the second game.
@Draco_V_Ecliptic I got the platinum for Star Wars in my first playthrough, I didn’t really want to play the game all over again. Nioh though, that’s a brilliant game. I’d put it up there with Dark Souls but it’s more of a Ninja Gaiden successor than anything. Bayonetta’s also brilliant but it’s a straight action game and not everyone likes that.
Can anyone recommend any games similar to Persona 5 on PS4? I've played the Trails of Cold Steel games and Tokyo Xanadu eX+. Anything else come to mind?
@Bentleyma- I guess it depends what it is you like about Persona 5. I don’t know of others with a similar recipe besides the Trails of Cold Steel games on PS4, although the Shin Megami Tensei games are the closest as far as older gen games (well outside of Persona 1-4), so if you have access to a PS3 or PS2 you’ll have a lot there.
If it’s turn based combat with some light high school social events you like, then I could recommend Valkyria Chronicles Remastered and Valkyria Chronicles 4 on PS4. Both a fantastic games, but the turn based combat, although excellent, is completely different from Persona. But it has a similar charm with memorable characters and storyline.
I think Dragon Quest XI has a solid Jrpg turn based formula, if that’s what you’re looking for. I haven’t played it though.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@Bentleyma- To be honest, you’d be better with a Vita, Switch or 3DS for that sorta thing. Vita has Persona 1,2,3 and 4 if you’re creative with the PSP emulator, Switch has FE Three Houses which is the closest you’ll get to Persona and 3DS has Persona Q, Etrian Odyssey and Shin Megami Tensei IV which are the best Atlus games outside of Persona.
@nessisonett@Th3solution Thanks for the replies! Unfortunately the only console I own right now is PS4. I decided to give Akiba's Beat a try. From what I can see from the review on this site, it seems similar to a Persona game. You get to explore Akihabara and do dungeons too. I've only just started it, so it could end up being nothing like the Persona games. We'll see!
@Bentleyma- I've just finished Tales of Beseria and its a brilliant jrpg, I haven't played Persona 5 so couldn't really comment if its the same but as far as jrpgs go its a solid one for the ps4
Can anybody tell me if Ghostbusters The Video Game on PS4 has the same bugs as the PS3 version? Specifically, do you have to play the game all the way through more or less in one or two sessions as it only saves up to a certain mission?
