Topic: What PS4 Games Are You Currently Playing?

@MS7000 Ooh, please share your thoughts on Sakura Wars, I’ve been looking forward to it but money’s kinda tight in the current circumstances. If it’s any good I might have to pick it up sooner rather than later!

@nessisonett I'll try my best once I've given it a good go. Hopefully it will be very good!

FFVII Remake, just started chapter 17, I'll probably push on and finish it tonight once I've got some food in me. I haven't rushed it and I'm sitting at just over 53 hours played, fantastic game although the pull up challenge almost made me loose my mind 🤣

@Arugula

Welcome to the club!

Played Erica through three times, an FMV style game for those who don't know. Was pretty cool, but then I realised it doesn't actually answer any of the major questions raised in the narrative, which is quite frustrating. Oh well.
Back to Doom Eternal again.

@RogerRoger Never question Mr Libido.

@Thrillho Good old Mr Libido, always made me giggle. Hats off to whoever mocapped or animated him.

I started on Control earlier. Man this game is well (new) weird. I only played the first hour or so, but I am really intrigued to play more to find out how this all unravels. The voice acting and facial animation is excellent, but unfortunately I'm finding the graphics overall a bit sub standard. Mind you I was streaming it through PS NOW, so maybe some of that will improve when i download it.

I also played Mudrunner, which I did not like at all. I seem to spend most of the time being stuck in the mud, moving a bit and then getting stuck again. Maybe that is the point of the game or I was doing something wrong, but I did not find it enjoyable. Tagging in @kyleforrester87 cos he is a jerk. Oh and said he was interested in giving it a go on the comments section of the Snowrunner review.

As for NOW, I'm unsure if I will continue past the week free trial or not. I will mostly use it try it a few games I've been unsure on. But the 9 pound a month is obviously cheaper then buying something like Control, which I'm sure I will continue to play.

@Arugula Did you download any games and notice any improvement in the graphics?

Currently playing Sekiro, Can honesty say it's a real challenge. 1 of the hardest games I've ever played.

@Arugula We will find out tomos when I've downloaded Control and play it.

@Arugula you can turn motion blur and grain etc. off in the settings for Control, these weren’t options at launch, and normally I leave those options on but I do prefer Control with these two guys off.

@Arugula Yeah there has been some pixalation in some places. I've turned off film grain as I never like when playing a video game.

@Arugula Downloading Control is definitely much better than streaming and sorted out the pixalation and stuff. So for trying out games streaming is fine, but if I stick with the service I will be downloading games that I will be playing a lot of.

@Arugula Don't have much interest in the ps3 stuff so that doesn't really bother me that much. I mean even if I only use it to play Control for the month, that would still be cheaper than buying it, but I do plan to try more games that are in there.

@Arugula I'm probably gonna do the Shopto trick as they currently have three months for just under 20 quid. 😁

I have just spent almost 2 hours with Adr1ft, the spacewalking simulator.
I read reviewer and players complaining about the controls, but I'm not having any problem. I wonder how much this people struggled to get their driving license...

Still playing Bloodborne, I've beaten it before but a long time ago so I don't remember much from the game, I just beat Father Gascoigne, or as I like to refer to him - Daddy Gazza, again. Do people think Vicar Amelia is a much easier boss, or easier at all? I just have to beat her then I can access to the Hunter's Nightmare, which is where I've been longing to go. Recommended BL for that, anyone?

I started Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair yesterday as a change after FF7R.

I’m liking it so far. Solid platforming and the levels are just the right length. Finding the coins is enough of a challenge without being laborious and I like the twist on playing levels in different states (eg a water based level can be replayed later on in a frozen state).

@Draco_V_Ecliptic Ah, like the Dark Souls games, the DLC is endgame content. I didn’t do it until I just had the final boss left and I still felt a bit weak and grinded chalices for a bit. On a side note, the trophies are really useful for telling which boss you should head towards next. You beaten Blood Starved Beast yet?
