@JonnyAces Same, evythibg looks fantastic and I'm excited but the Spectrum of The Order 1886 looms is the background of mind so I would like to see more gameplay and get an idea of game length.

Did not have 'Spandau Ballet song reference' on my monday PushSquare bingo card but I'm here for it!

@Matroska Jam! That's sounds great!! Definitely gonna give the demo a try and put it on my To-Play list. Thank You 😃

@Matroska I'm interested in both of these but never got around to the Unicorn overlord demo before needing more SSD space for Rebirth. Is it worth it?

@Hootnoodle Go for it! And try the Burning Shores as well if you can. It's fantastic 😃

Welp I have Finshed Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and it was awesome! Definitely my GOTY so far. On a whim I started Bloodborne and just beat Daddy Gastro Coin last night. I have thoughts and feelings on the game but overall I'm enjoying it. Star Ocean 2 Remake is still on the back burner (mostly cause I forgot where I was and what I was doing) but I intend to beat it before my next game purchase which is Sparking Zero

Have a great Gaming and Olympic weekend folks!

Having recently started Bloodborne (got tired of waiting for a Remaster) and having played and enjoyed both Salt and Sanctuary and Salt and Sacrifice I can confidently say yes they need to slow it down. Too many Souls-likes are killing they genre. But on occasion they csn be a nice change of pace so they shouldn't disappear completely.

Let's be honest if not for Souls-like we would have to rely on FromSofr completely and they just don't want to modernize in some aspects. Souls-like do a great job of showing us what FromSoft refuse to, for better or worse.

@Kidfunkadelic83 Same. Fight the good fight 👊🏽

I'm in the Temple of the Ancients in Rebirth I may actually finish this game this weekend! If I do I'll have to find another game to play, probably Star Ocean 2 Remake

Have a great one folks!

I literally cannot stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣

@lindos 🤣 At least you got NMS to keep you busy

@MickOnYourFace You'll spend alot of time in the game for sure but it eases you in quite nicely, like a warm bath that slowly rises in temperature.

Honestly this is one of the best games of last gen given the improvements and feedback they took into account. But because it once overheated 2 different PS4s I owned I don't want to play it on PS5 😅

My faith in this community has proved true! This is pretty much my person list.

Definitely trying to make some progress in Rebirth this weekend. Looking at Dragonquest 3 Remake footage has me slightly disappointed with it but also wanting to play it so I might jump back into Star Ocean 2 Remake instead 😅

Have a good weekend yall!

Just like the X-Files: I want to believe!

Hoping to play some Rebirth this weekend. Didn't play anything last weekend due to the Hurricane.

For me it Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Despite its frustrating overabundance of minigames when it shines it REALLY shines and is a brilliant retelling of FF7 and is pretty much what we all dreamed a Remake could be. But sometimes you gotta he careful what you wish for.

Very interesting results. Shocked at DQ3 and Sparking Zero being as low as they are. But as @EfYI said there is something (or 2) for everyone this year.

I'll be interested to see if the internet darlings translate to actual sales.

I completed all World Intel for Cosmo Canyon in Rebirth and I'm thinking about bumming around Junon next. Might be battling a Hurricane on Monday though so gaming will be cut short.

Enjoy the weekend everyone!

Most excited for Lego Horizon and Sparking Zero followed by DQ3 HD2D. I honestly don't think I'll have the time to play any other games.

August is PACKED this year. I might not be able to play this till 2025 😖

EDIT: Actually the beginning of August isn't that packed for me personally. Maybe I could squeeze this in 🤔

I would think that most gamers where getting ready for the dlc by playing the game and therefore should be used to the level of difficulty. Is it really THAT MUCH more difficult or are people just not used to it yet?

@kyleforrester87 Up to you but I have a friend who did not vibe with Sea of Stars. But he loved XVI so 🤷🏾‍♂️

Reading these comments you would think no one liked this game yet the poll show more than half think its really good.

Yup, another week another rehash of the same games I'm playing just with a dash of Salt and Sacrifice added in cause everyone else if playing elden ring 😝
New Seqson of Foamstars just started but I'm not sure I like the changes or the new character. I need to get back to Rebirth as I paused to play Monster Hunter World again. And I'm watching the US Olympic Trials.

Happy gaming everyone.

Absolutely fantastic game! The story was gripping and more "a fantasy based on reality" than XV was. The characters felt very human to me. The music was top notch and the gameplay was epic. I was happy with the lack of minigames as I'm drowning in the in Rebirth, Side content could have been better tho. In my top 3 FF games of all time.

@Ralizah Yeah I realize people are buying consoles. The evergreen nature of these few after 6+ years is just astonishing.

@Rafie to this day I can't understand who is STILL buying Smash 8/Mario Kart/ GTA5. Who are all these people who haven't played these yet? 🥴

@Jimmer-jammer Definitely! It's needs an Uncharted 2 style sequel or Remake and a Netflix series honestly.

@Jimmer-jammer ohhhh man I would love that too!

@DrClayman @Brawl4002 @UncleByron the more I think about it 'Orginal ip'
just means not a remaster/remake so it really could be Bloodborne II 🤔

Any chance they grew to 2 teams and 1 is working on the original ip and the other on Bloodborne?

Classic case of "Twitter isn't real life." Now if only people knew the Vita did the same thing for PS4 (technically better) back in the day 🤔

@get2sammyb nah mate, I just can't get enough! 😅🤣

Was half expecting a Depeche Mode reference in the tag line.

I jumped back into MH World and it's still fantastic! I Prefer it to Rise. Still dabbling in Foamstars from time to time and I'll get back to Rebirth soon. It's almost Olympic Trials time!

Happy gaming!

If they're worried about artistic integrity then just do a PS5/PC remaster then annouce Fromsoft is developing Bloodbourne 2.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner @BacklogBrad @K1llegal I guess that might explain MS closing the studio somewhat. Hellblade 2 is very likely next. Sadly this just reinforces the live service argument when unique single player games cant hold on the a fraction of their audience but we all put hundreds of hours into repetitive gameplay loops.

Live Services (when they're good) are really the perfect game but time is limited for many of us.

@ShogunRok True, that's how I got into Monster Hunter. Of all the games that got PS5 ports I didnt expect Sea of Thieves to be the break hit but cleary Skull and Bones did not fill the gap it was intended to fill.

Interesting that while Sea of Thieves topped the charts HiFi Rush didnt appear at all.

I'm hoping they can patch in a better split screen implementation down the road but I'll take what I can get. Game looks fantastic.

A "Light Year" for gaming right?

Oh man, being able to auto ride back to your target will be very helpful. I used to get lost sometimes in the ancient forest in World.

Wow, great write up! This got me excited for this game and I wasnt really interested before 😃

Me at Question #6: STOP THE COUNT

@Ooccoo_Jr I'm with you. Planning on picking it up to play Co op with the wife.

This is very intriguing, and Ben Star voicing it makes it a slam dunk.

Legit thought this was a sequel to Wo Long:Fallen Dynasty for a minute.

Jumped into MH Rise a bit after the MH Wilds trailer and I gotta say: World is still better 😛
I did play around in Horizon Forbidden West too just cause the Lego Horizon announcement has me hyped.

This weekend is more Rebirth and Foamstars

Have fun everyone!

@Bez87 😅 Fair point! I didnt mention it cause I thought it was Steam only. I just now read on IGN that is multiplatform so now I'm stoked! I have 3 friends who immediately said this is a day 1 for them so I'm building up my ranger team!
