Re: Warhammer RPG Rogue Trader Completes 1 Million Transactions

Athrum

This game is pretty great, even though the systems are a bit obtuse for someone who knew nothing of WH40K. I really dug the lore though.
Owlcat makes some pretty good CRPGS, if people liked Rogue Trader I suggest you try Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, it's one of the best CRPGs I've played. They're also going to publish "Shadow of the Road" by Another Angle Games, a crpgs set in a ancient Japan inspired fantasy setting, looks pretty great.

Re: Persona Protagonists Are Invariably High School Boys Due to 'Mental Age'

Athrum

I guess....?! I was overjoyed that we were finally getting a 30 year old as a protagonist for a Final Fantasy (older Noctis was cool as well).
I don't know, I'm really tired of the highschool setting, at least make it college since people are bit more grown up. The highschoolers from japanese settings are often shown as looking and having the mental maturity of 20 year olds anyway.

Re: PlayStation Joins Social Media Shift as Bluesky Rockets in Popularity

Athrum

I mean, great I guess. It's just another social media filled with different kinds of crazies, just like Twitter.
The first post I saw when I created an account was a call to boycott GoodReads and join a new platform for the sole merit of being created by and african-american woman.
On Twitter I get OF bots and unrelated comments on every post.
They both suck in their own way.

Re: Sony Boss Says It's 'Learned a Lot' from PC Player Pushback

Athrum

@evan23 Once again, I can download those games right now to my PC and keep them in a disk forever or until the disk dies, with no issue whatsoever. So preservation is not the right angle to go at this, these games are not in a server that you need to access, the account is just an authentication thing.

Re: Sony Boss Says It's 'Learned a Lot' from PC Player Pushback

Athrum

@evan23 Those games won't go away, since you have the PS4/5 versions with the disk AND you can find pirated versions without the account requirements for PC anyway.
If you're talking about games like Diablo IV though, games that you need servers to play, that's a whole different story, but the single-player PS games ain't it.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of the Monster Hunter Wilds Beta?

Athrum

Loved the beta. I was already sold on the game because I'm a MonHun nut, but I was on the fence if I was going to buy it on PS5 since they released the PC specs. I knew it that it wasn't going to run well, but I never knew it would be this bad. That on top of the 9€ per month if you want to play online are kinda pushing me to buy the game on Steam, even though I prefer to play on the couch.

Re: Monster Hunter Wilds' Beta Is Prompting Fans to Reconsider PS5 Pro

Athrum

They prioritize PC development over consoles just like in Dragons Dogma 2. The fact that you need Nvidia frame generation to run this thing at 60 fps with medium quality was a dead giveaway that it wouldn't run well on consoles. I'm pretty sure they said not even the PS Pro version will be 60 fps, but I'll need to find the source.

Re: Don't Sweat Metaphor: ReFantazio's Borrowed Persona Calender System

Athrum

Thank *****!
@Khayl Adam out here doing god's work!! I wasn't going to get the game because I was going to wait until a comprehensive game was out. It's something that I really dislike in games is having limited time/chances to do things, even though I do love Persona, I've played all the games with a guide to do as much as possible on my first run.
