Topic: PlayStation 5 --OT--

@JohnnyShoulder I love be these Papa Shoulders stories. He and @nessisonett‘s mom make me smile just imagining the older generation playing the same games I play.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Your encouragement is very kind ☺️
I just kind of backed into my PS4 at launch. It wasn’t a big deal, really. I just went to GameStop a few weeks ahead of release and paid for it to reserve one and then went at midnight to pick it up. They had numbers on the receipt and called you in order and everyone has their box in about 15 minutes.

Man GameSpot's Miles Morales review was goddamn incredible

10/10 really makes me feel like a black teen

@TheFrenchiestFry Yeah, the review basically confirmed what I suspected - that it was essentially the same game as Spider-Man 2018 but seen through a more interesting lens. It’s the Easter eggs I loved about the first one that elevated it beyond a somewhat by-the-numbers structure so if this game packs as many nods to the comics as possible then I’ll probably enjoy it.

Interesting video

He doesn’t talk about graphics quality, but really feels like XSX has more sparse trees in the background (e.g. at the end on the boat), and the PS5 has more detailed textures at range. Will be interesting when DF looks at it.

@Mega-Gazz that makes sense. I think a betters SSD should allow for better view-draw distance.

Does anyone know how long the HDMI cable included in the ps5 box is? Curious if I’ll need to buy a separate cable to be long enough to reach.

@Mega-Gazz 1.5m for both the HDMI and also USB-c cable, I was looking for the same info the other day.

Um...
A little question about using avatar on PS5.
By default, without downloading anything, can i not using any avatar logo, just keep it smiley face icon ?
Can i erase other avatar logo ?

So Nioh 2 just got announced for PS5

Another remaster

of a game that literally came out THIS YEAR LMAO

Apparently it's coming to PC too so since I already own the first one on Steam I'll probably get it there

@InvaderJim thanks

@TheFrenchiestFry I bought Nioh 2 last month. At least it’s a free upgrade cause I would have been... not pleased if I had to pay for a remaster of a game not even a year old.

Random, I know.

According to IGN, a download queue bug don't let you download, cancel and redownloaded a game you have just bought. The only solution seems to be a factory reset... Nice. Any news?

@andreoni79 I'm sure it will be fixed like all the other bugs with a future update patch.

My console will always be connected to the internet, but this is good for people that can't for whatever reason.

Has anyone tried to use thumbstick covers on the dualsense controller? My DS4’s all had the rubber tear off eventually, and got slippy as my hands got sweaty so I started to like the covers - but I wasn’t sure if it would dampen any of the haptics or whatnot.

@Mega-Gazz I haven't used them, but you should be fine. The haptics don't really come through the analog sticks. They are implemented throughout the controller's body.

@batwing47 thanks

So, this was unexpected - my Samsung’s TV remote seems to control my PS5, left/right/up/down and the middle seems to be x.

Man

I just want a console lol

The fact that things have gotten so messy with this launch that some of us potentially have to wait upwards of two whole weeks before getting another shot at snagging one really hurts lol
