Topic: What PS4 Games Are You Currently Playing?

@TheBrandedSwordsman Ultra Great Swords AND furries... I couldn’t be more in! 🤯

@Th3solution I'd certainly say FFXIV isn't for everyone but for me it's hitting all the right notes. I will for sure see Returnal through to the end just not in too much of a rush at the moment. After June I won't be buying any other titles for the rest of the year. Between FFXIV, Returnal, Ratchet, and FF7R Intergrade these alone are enough for the year, not to mention other backlog games such as MGS4, NieR Automata, and Tales of Beseria. So I got a juicy gaming Summer ahead of me, if I can manage to have these wrapped up MAYBE I'll consider Horizon and Tales of Arise.

Edit: Oh God.... I forgot I postponed the Royal content of P5R till the end of the year. Too many games not enough time xD.

@TraCuz- “Too many games, not enough time.” — this is my life motto exactly! 😄
I’m with you on Returnal, R&C, and FF7R Intergrade being on the docket for me too over coming months. I’ve never played the Tales games and I probably shouldn’t start because I have so much already and there are a ton of those. But NieR Automata is fabulous, imo. One of my favorites of the PS4 gen. I need to play NieR Replicant one of these days too. Not sure if I’ll buy it before year end though.

I’ll probably be buying Horizon FW day one, likely won’t be able to wait on that. And I’ll probably buy Miles Morales and maybe Demon’s Souls before year end as the prices settle a little. Sheesh, that’s a lot of games to add when I already have a big backlog. I completely forgot about Kena Bridge of Spirits and Deathloop - if those review well I might have to give them a close look. I had plans to fit in Mass Effect Legendary Ed. this year but I’m not sure I’ll have the time for it even though one of my goals for this year had been to replay some older favorites since I’m not prone to do that due to new games always pulling at my attention.

I’m the guy at the restaurant who tries something new on the menu with each visit, even when I know a certain dish is really good. 😄

@TheBrandedSwordsman It's a fun game. I've only played 2 rounds but I first impressions are that I think I preferred the psp game. It's kinda perfect for a handheld game but the psp version was also less "busy", simpler and more straightforward. Still, I can see myself dipping into it a lot, it's still a lot of fun.

@bluedex I'm glad you're enjoying it, golf has never really been my forte', maybe more video game cricket if I can find the right game, i.e probably Cricket 19, do you like cricket?

@Th3solution Biomutant is great, just approach it like a standard RPG and I'm sure your furry little fellow will grow on you in no time, it's an excellent game.

I was struggling with a tricky part of Biomutant this morning but overcame the odds and now I have an excellent piece of gear at my disposal which means I won't have to deal with that particular problem again, as far as I can tell. Unless it's part of the story that that piece of gear gets disabled later in the game or something! meh, but yeah, who knows!

@Jimmer-jammer I forget the name of the breed, but I've got an anthropomorphic fox on my hands how about you?, how did you find the deadzone? The lack of oxygen therein meant that I died several times at the point where you had to jump from the truck to the door to enter the building where there is oxygen, seemed a bit unbalanced and even almost unfair in that part

I am enjoying it so far ,did you decide to side with the

@Jimmer-jammer Won't you have to go back to the dead zone later anyway? Isn't it mandatory for making progress through the story?

After a 2 month diversion away from the game, I tried to jump back into The Outer Worlds today and ...I have no idea what’s going on or how to play it anymore. 😅
I just ended up turning it off. I’ll go back to it eventually, as I was enjoying it at the time. But I’m too easily distracted right now.

@Jimmer-jammer What do you think of Out-Of-Date and the flashback sections?, do you think you will go back to the deadzone and finish the story at some point?

Scarlet Nexus demo. The game had been flying under my radar up to now, but the demo was fun with the hack and slash plus telekinesis combat.

@Arugula you got one... a topless pic 😉

@User843678 it’s a love it or hate it... a good mate of mine has easily sunk over 300 hours into it and can’t wait for the new dlc (which is due about now) to release to sink even more... i on the other hand played it for about 30 hours and even that seemed like 30 hours too much.

@Jecht_Ultima Glad you are enjoying the game so far. The start of it certainly goes for the feels. I missed out on it originally as never had a ps3 and it quickly became one of my favourites, until the sequel surpassed it on almost every level imo.

@Jecht_Ultima I’ve been playing through the multiplayer of late, its very good actually. Once I’ve got the last trophy online, I’m quite looking forward to playing through the story again. Only ever played through it the once back in 2014.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Oof, that’s not good. Haven’t seen a screen like that since the Wii days, the disc drives seem to be a bit better nowadays.

@Jecht_Ultima yeah I’m the same bud, I never even used to try and plat games if they had mp trophies. Now I’ll do the bare minimum of mp on games where the plat requires it. Even though it isn’t my thing, I’m starting to quite enjoy the change of pace that playing a bit of mp here and there provides.

If you do end up considering going for TLoU platinum let me know, I’ll give you some info that could save you a lot of time.

@Jecht_Ultima Enjoy! I replayed the game last year on PS4 (base model) and thought it still looked good and the game was still great to play.

But the sequel is even better! Don’t skip the Left Behind DLC either; it’s not very long and a good little extra bit of story.

@Th3solution Im pretty close to finishing the first TR game now 76% according to my save file, I've been playing for 7 hours so should have it done in a couple of days, I'm really enjoying it, I think it's the simple nature of explore and shoot and the way the game keeps flowing that has me so keen on it, games sometimes now have a tendency for you to be in right frame of mind to be able to put so much effort in and 40+ hours and a PhD to be able to cope lol. Will definitely be starting the second one but I'll give it a week or 2 after completing the first before I do.

I totally agree with you about AC, my least favourite part about Origins were the ship battles, I'm not really a boat person anyway and I'm least looking forward to it again in Oddesy and also with how long and big the game is, it does take abit of motivation to start it knowing your going into for the long haul but I'm really big on mythology and so far I'm really enjoying it, not much different to Origins at all apart from setting and story but gameplay wise feels the same.

I can't wait to play Ghost Of Tsushima but it'll probably be next year before i get around to it.

@MaulTsir Glad you’re enjoying it. I’ll be curious to see if you like Rise of the TR more or less than the first game.

And I hear you on the AC Odyssey issues. I actually think I’m going to play Immorals Fenyx Rising for my Greek mythology fix first, rather than Odyssey. Not to say I won’t eventually play Odyssey, but the time commitment is a little bit of a turn off for me right now.

@Jecht_Ultima It's top ain't it? It will be very interesting to hear what you make of the second game. I gather you have managed to stay clear of the spoilers that are out there?
