Topic: What PS4 Games Are You Currently Playing?

@GirlVersusGame I honestly don’t know, as I’m just taking one playthrough at a time. A floor can’t take that long though, as the time to get passed 9000 is roughly 2 & 1/2 hours. It could obviously get frustrating if you get pretty far (like in the 8000’s) and die for whatever reason. 🤞 I get it first try I guess 😁

@psmr That sounds like you can blitz through one in seconds, I thought you meant over one hundred hours. I played a mode like that in a game last year and checked online to try and remember what it was but had no luck. I remember the level was a tower with stairs on both sides and each had a door, you then go through it and different enemies spawn in the center of the room. A week or a month from now it will come to me, you'll be long through those 9000 floors by then. I keep thinking it was Chaosbane, it had that aesthetic.

Edit: It must be that game.

• The Tower of Chaos in Warhammer: Chaosbane is an endgame, "infinite tower" mode where players fight increasingly difficult randomized enemy waves for better loot. As you ascend, the risk of dying—and losing potential rewards—increases. It is best tackled on higher difficulty levels (Chaos 8-10) for maximum XP and high-tier item drops

I don't know if you played it, I don't remember it being a difficult platinum and I do remember liking the mode. It's a PS4 game too so it's not off topic.

There was so much loot.

@GirlVersusGame nah, the Devil May Cry plats, while notoriously difficult (this one isn’t though ironically) tend to be fairly short-ish plats… with the exception of 4 and 5. I’m already doing a bit of due-diligence on the 4 plat and I’m both excited and terrified (more terrified than excited tbh).

I think I have Chaosbane in the backlog funnily enough. I played through Diablo 3 a couple of years back and bought a few similar styled ARPG’s off the back of it… then didn’t end up playing any of them 😅. Glad you brought it up though as it’s brought it back into focus.

@psmr You might not believe it but Chaosbane is a great game. What I know about Warhammer can fit on a cocktail napkin but it's no secret that they understand world design and interesting characters/classes. I liked Diablo 3, it was similar to that game, so was Inquisitor. I played the latter after Diablo 4 and preferred it to anything blizzard offered. I don't know what it was about Inquisitor, it was just fun, had a lot of upgrades, loot, things to work towards and the story was really interesting. I think those were the only Warhammer games I've played, no actually there was another. One called Mechanicus, a sort of strategy game, incredibly difficult but the score was out of this world.

I checked, I played Chaosbane then 'wow Warhammer is really good, what's Inquisitor?' both platinums mean I enjoyed them. Some games I'll leave at 5%, no one can see them only me so there's no concern over completion. Out of sight out of mind. Those two games made me want to go for that completion, I'd seen the same classes in other games but Chaosbane made them more interesting and Inquisitor was just so unique.

It was worth getting murdered mercilessly over and over again in that game just to find that piece of music. There's a sequel planned for PS5, hopefully this year. I'd love to see how a less janky more in-depth and fleshed out version of the same kind of game plays.
