@ilyn @Naruball @Westernwolf4 Seeing you all and others here speak positively about Veilguard has peaked my interest. Knowing that it comes from actual people who have actually played the game and not just Twitter engagement farmers makes me more trusting of your opinions.
I added the game to my library when it was on PS Plus just in case so I think I will play it. Probably not this year give my current Backlog and what I plan to buy later this year but I definitely am going to try it.
Well I've pause Oblivion Remastered (45hrs in and loving it) to start up Lies of P (3.5hrs in) its really good! Looking forward to experimenting with weapon parts this weekend.
I hope this demo comes to Playstation as I'd like to try this out first. Not sure why the Trailer made this seem like far more of a Kid-targeted game. It's seemed almost silly at times. But I'm interested.
What saddens me is that Asia is now off the table for the Horizon franchise lest Sony be accused of stealing Tencents idea. I guess Horizon 3 will have to take Aloy to Australia. Good thing Kojima already recreated it in Decima so they have a head start π
@ShogunRok I think this is the most Damning evidence. It strongly implies Horizon wasnt just the inspiration but the target for this game from the start and not just some coincidentally similar concept. Yeah I think Sony can win this one.
TES Oblivion Remastered has taken over! Surprisingly, the latest patch has actually noticeably improved performance for me on base PS5. It's not perfect but it's better than before for me. Not sure if that's been anyone else's experience. And I'm supposed to play more MH Wilds Flamefete festival today with the boys but idk.
The fact Sony owns so much anime but hasn't Liscensed it out or made 1st party games is baffling. They need an I.C.E. group for anime like they did during the PS3 era. Someone needs to start working together across departments. The gatxha game angle is brilliant not sure how they haven't thought of it yet.
And now it begins: we will have some saying they should drop the multiplayer mode and focus on SP and others who will says if it's not out by End of Year it's an L.
Reality: Anything like Legends in 2025 would be made into a Live Service with a Battlepass and Im not sure that's what gamers want.
Welp I've been sucked into Oblivion Remastered and it's taking over my consciousness. I'm only 12hrs in and level 6 but not 1 single oblivion gate has been opened yet π€£
I will probably play some MH Wilds with the boys later today. Between MH Oblivion and eventually platinuming HZD Remastered I should be good till my planned double feature of Ghost Yotei/Digimon Story Time Stranger in October.
We're in danger of becoming too complacent and just expecting there to be FREE GOW Valhalla-level post content nowadays. We really have to appreciate these more cause it's not a given.
I just bought this 3 days ago, having a great time but the performance and hitches is deplorable. I HOPE this patch came improve it somewhat, but judging by DF and the previous comments I will likely be disappointed.
@kyleforrester87 Welp, I caved. I'll probably spend the day in the character creator and tomorrow actually start playing. This, HZD Remastered and the occasional MH wilds quest will take me till Ghost of Yotei and Digimon Story Time Stranger release in October π«‘
Playing MH Wilds with the boys to rank up a friend to HR41 so he can fight Lagiacrus with us this weekend! And I'll dip my toe backing into HZD Remastered.
I understand that the GAAS titles need all the players they can get and this is the only successful one Sony has. For it to even have a chance at Apex Legends levels of success it needs to be multiplat. But Xbox is basically dead so I'm not sire it will gain thst much. Plus it rubs the PS fan base the wrong way.
I can understand the reasoning behind it but it's still weird. π€·πΎββοΈ
Having finally Platinumed Unicorn Overlord I'm going back to HZD Remastered this weekend. TU 2 for Monster Hunter Wilds is on Monday so I'll go back to that as well.
@Questionable_Duck Yeah they Cleary were targeting PS4 given when development started and I guess they didn't bother with trying for 60fps. But the game looks great!
I'm just a few hours of gameplay away from the Platinum trophy for Unicorn Overlord! Will our hero actually GET those few hours to play this weekend? Tune in next week for another exciting episode of As the Dualsense Rumbles.
@RagnarLothbrok I agree. The argument of " exclusivity hurt it cause the hype died down" doesn't seem to apply to FF7 Remake on Switch 2 as people wont stop talking about it even thought its not out yet. Also somehow all the complaints about Remake have evaporated and people love it now. They use this logic selectively.
This weekend I'm hoping to wrap up (who am I kidding?) Unicorn Overlord. I'm now officially 100hrs in. Will likey also dip back into the Frozen Wilds DLC of HZD Remastered cause I forgot how good that dlc was.
@Ravix Have you tries the Demos for Octopath Traveler 2 or Unicorn Overlord? They might be different enough to entice you and there are fairly long (3hrs and 8hrs respectively) so you can get a good feel for the games.
I'm off work for a couple days so I'll be catching up on my Sleep Backlog π΄. But also continuing HZD Remastered as I'm starting to get back into the story. I put Ghost of Tsushima on pause for the time being.
@Anya-chan I would do the same but reality and history has shown me I can only really focus on one game at a time π and with FF Tactics remaster just days before both of these there is no hope.
MAN that release date SUX! I'll be getting Yotei but I want to play this eventually. I'm not happy about how many games shown today are all within a month of eachother π

Re: Free-to-Play Juggernaut Genshin Impact Is Delisting and Shutting Down PS4 Version
Things must be really bad on PS4 for Hoyo to actually shut down a revenue stream like that. PS4 players must be spending less these days.

Re: The Adventures of Elliot Is Another New PS5 RPG from Octopath Traveler Dev

Re: Octopath Traveler 0 Confirmed and Set for a PS5 Release This December

Re: Rumour: New Octopath Traveler Game Set for PS5 Reveal

Re: Talking Point: Sony's Investing in Anime, But Why Isn't PlayStation Leading the Charge?

Re: Rumour: Oblivion Remastered, Metal Gear Solid Delta Dev Hit with Hundreds of Layoffs
This is just plain mismanagement by the higher-ups. This also makes more performance patches unlikely if the Devs are either laid off or protesting.

I just bought this 3 days ago, having a great time but the performance and hitches is deplorable. I HOPE this patch came improve it somewhat, but judging by DF and the previous comments I will likely be disappointed.
