@RoomWithaMoose I’ll be honest with you. You’ve simultaneously said the most, and the least, in this entire comments section.

@SeaDaVie that would be awesome! I’ve always disliked how generic my created characters feel in games because of how the world interacts with them. This is a thing tha AI should rectify. Much like the internet as a whole, AI can be wonderful if used properly.

The things I’m seeing from AI are crazy and scary! It’s gonna come to a point at which any video proof of wrongdoing can be blamed on AI. And that’s not to say AI can’t do some good when it comes to video games.

Imagine if AI was able to allow NPCs to address your created character by the name you give them instead of the generic, preprogrammed name? That would be good use of AI. But I don’t want AI replacing the human aspect of the industry. And lord knows if that can ever be possible that these companies would just at rhe chance.

Nintendo’s consoles are direct generational competitors with Sony and Microsoft. I mean, Nintendo releases in off years and don’t really have the same user base.

So many gamers will own a PS/Switch or Xbox/Switch. But there are those few who own all 3. And those who own all 3 often decide which console they wanna play multiplatform games on; PS or Xbox?

Also, Xbox and PlayStation almost collaborate their releases. Releasing within weeks of each other. Nintendo knows that the other 2 aren’t direct competitors. This is why Nintendo doesn’t worry about power and performance the way the others do.

Person 1: “Dark Souls remake looks amazing!”

Person 2: “Dark Souls remake looks and sounds generic…”

Gotta love the diversity of opinion here on Push Square! ✌🏾

They all look like screens from Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

@Marquez for sure. I’d always sworn to never getting into MMOs because I never wanted to ever have to pay a monthly fee to play a game (obviously, this is now how it works), and knew that my personality would cause me to get too imbedded in the world of it if I happened to like it. This is what ESO did to me for a long time.

I’m playing Echoes of the End right now and it’s a 7/10 game (Metacritic says 6.6/10). It’s every challenging due to no animation canceling in combat (a complaining many reviews have) but I’m fine with that. Animation cancel isn’t a real thing a person can do. I understand this is fantasy but still…

Can’t wait to finish Echoes of the End and get to Yōtei. After that, Dragon’s Dogma II. I’m gonna lost in fantasy worlds for at least the next 6 months.

Don’t like Fallout. But love Elder Scrolls. Let’s get to work on that, please?!

For the first time in almost 10 years, I’m not playing Elder Scrolls Online. Well, this is the first weekend in which I’ve had access to play it and have not.

In fact, after being a day 1 player, I’ve finally decided to leave the game. It kinda sucks. But it’s for the greater good of my gaming life. I’ve skipped so many anticipated releases (Dragon’s Dogma II, Ghost of Tsushima, Black Myth, etc.) due to my ESO obsession. Needless to say, it’s been a weird 5 days not playing.

Anyway, I’m playing Echoes of the End now. Will jump into Ghost of Yōtei after.

I’d ever had any interest in Halo. But now, I still have no interest in Halo. But good for all the PS fans who have wanted this.

And this… Is when you know they’ve officially given up!

Love to see it! Haven’t played it yet, but just got the platinum for Ghost of Tsushima and intend on jumping into Yōtei after Echoes of the End.

@GamingFan4Lyf my man said MAME!

Cheers to the old school 🥂

Black Panther, Storm, Venom, and Captain America! ✌🏾

Sadly, no Blade 😔

@ChopperCampbell that’s my point to the commenter I replied to. Xboxers will buy games that aren’t on GamePass.

@11001100110zero was it on GamePass?

Until Sony gives me a new Champions of Norrath or Dark Cloud 3 they can all eat 💩 🤣

That being said. They need to drop support for PS4 soon! I mean, 5 years into PS5 and they’re still supporting the 12-year-old console. Why do they think many are not upgrading? This will hinder adoption rates for the PS6. It’s like they’ve never read the signs that say “Don’t feed the animals”. And no, I’m not calling PS4 players “animals”.

@Stocksy same here. On all counts! I went from Elder Scrolls, to Ghost of Tsushima, to Echoes of the End lol. All 3rd person action games.

@Stocksy as so the unfortunate nature of man. Sucks!

I may give it a shot now. First person is what kept me from trying it out.

@Balaam_ how do you call trophies something that’s being “forced down everyone’s throat” when not a single trophy isn’t optional? Like, they’re literally useless and have not bearing on the actual games.

On topic: I rarely do DLC so it’s nothing to me. I thought about playing Iki Island after finishing Ghost of Tsushima but had so many more games left to play.

@Toot1st agree! Games have nothing memorable about them other than their difficultly.

I’ve not played it and it’s not my cup of tea. But watching my son play it I’d say 8/10. Looks really fun if you’re into that sort of thing.

I intend to pick this one up! Happy for the success!

Got the platinum for Ghost of Tsushima. Amazing game! Great story! Now, on to Echoes of the End. Good so far. Voice acting feels a little wooden though. And, of course, Elder Scrolls Online!

@AstroBottom I think it’s more so that when I do comment about something like that it triggers you. Because most of my comments have nothing do to with what you’re accusing me of. But those comments don’t elicit the same reaction from you. Good day, sir! ✌🏾

@MichaelNau lol I absolutely get it. I wish that stuff didn’t matter to most people. But, it unfortunately does.

@MichaelNau I get that. But Erin Kellyman is a Black woman. The folks who don’t care for Aloy will definitely care about that!

@MichaelNau give folks a new reason to hate Aloy lol.

I’m just here to act like a child and say childish things. Am I fitting in with most of the other comments so far?

Anyway. Sadie Sink would be a good pick for Aloy. Thought when this was supposed to be a series that she’d been attached to it.

Some of you people are so weird. It’s almost like it causes you physical pain to see something you don’t like do well. This is a single player sequel to a bane that did huge numbers during a lockdown pandemic. Even if Ghost of Tsushima didn’t have the pandemic pushing it, it’s likely the sequel would not sell as well as the original.

Yōtei’s already turned a profit after a week’s launch at full price. It’s second on a list behind a Mario game in Japan, and behind a soccer game in the UK. It’ll likely sell 6-8 million lifetime and make maybe 5x its budget. It’s only a “flop” because deeming it as such is your best coping mechanism.

@PerpetualBoredom that’s cool. But making “facts” slang for an opinion is idiotic. I’m literally gonna die from the anger it instills in me.

@EfYI but but but Aloy is fat though! Unplayable!

@PerpetualBoredom I feel like the most annoying thing on the Internet right now, is people typing “straight facts!“ on something that’s clearly an opinion.

For the newcomers, cool. For the veterans, another reason to whine. Good morning PS ✌🏾

@RadioHedgeFund well said! Rise of Skywalker is “Star Wars: As written by Reddit”. Ruined the trilogy. Rian Johnson had a vision and Disney poked him in the eye and told the Internet to throw something together.

While we’re on Sucker Punch, just finished Ghost of Tsushima. This means I’ve finished every game this studio has ever made save for Ghost of Yōtei and Robot on Wheels. I’ve yet to be disappointed. What a game! What an emotional ending!

On topic. I’ve love to see Fetch get a full game in this era of female protagonists. First Light was masterful in its story. Best story of all the Infamous games.

Black Desert couldn’t pull me from ESO. This one might be it. We’ll see…

@Propaperpusher how so, exactly?

@PuppetMaster I can’t find an article that specifies either of those things. That being the case, I’ll assume that it’s sold through in total, and worldwide.

When it comes to fighting games. Street Fighter will always be the most complete and most fun. Mortal Kombat will always have the best story mode and creative deaths. And Tekken will always, just exist.

Also, everyone’s right. The design feels user-generated. The character’s Madagascar ethnicity doesn’t even shine through. You take a look at her and there’s no way anyone would guess she’s supposed to be from there. Can’t believe no one pointed that out when they were designing this character.

@PuppetMaster yeah. It did 1.6 million sell through in week 1. That’s a solid start!

GTA V will never be out of the top 10. Crazy how long that one’s had legs. Yōtei still solid because there’s no way an SP beat an online shooter and a SOCCER (😏) game in the UK.

@PushButtons the thing is, the game could possibly be a 10. But there’s no way it’s a 1. I don’t think it’s a 10. But I definitely know it’s not a 1.

@MrPeanutbutterz I feel the same about Elden Ring. I don’t like it at all. But I can see why others like it. I don’t like games that are stressful as hell and I can’t relax and just take in. After all, I play games to relax and escape the stresses of life. But you’ll never see me call Elden Ring anything less than an 8/10 rated video game. And I give Dragon Age: The Veilguard a 7/10 and I love that game.

I think some people believe that if they don’t like a game it means it a bad game. That’s absolutely not true! Sometimes, a game just isn’t for you. Even then, you can still be neutral when rating it.

The 1s, 2s, and 3s know they’re full of 💩. And I’ve not even played this game yet. Like, if this is a 1, 2, 3, out of 10 game, what do you consider to be “good”?
