This showcase feels particularly redundant compared to other marketing cycles. I can't imagine anyone interested in watching a State of Play isn't already interested in Final Fantasy 16. So it basically just splits the demographic into those who want to see more and those who have seen enough. I doubt it's gonna catch the attention of anyone not already in the know
If it also played digital PS4 games, I'd be interested. The streaming by itself is not enticing as if I wanted to play underperforming PS5 games, I'd just the Remote Play app on my phone
Interesting, wasn't expecting an expansion since the game felt like a one-off. I feel like I had my fill after getting the platinum but an expansion to the combat and seeing more of Lim does sound enticing. Will wait for the reviews to decide if I want to come back.
@Orpheus79V I don't believe many people would count side content towards total play time as many people finish the main mission in about an hour. It launched at $40 but quickly dropped to $30 and you are correct in that is was known to be a precursor for The Phantom Pain, I did not recall that part correctly
One Piece Odyssey and SpongeBob have my eyes for some casual fun. I'll check out Forspoken if it reviews decently and will definitely play P3P and Rise during Feb since that's a slower month for me
Comparing to the previous generation, PS4 had 7 games, not including remasters, ports, or rereleases, with 90+ metacritic scores: Persona 5 Royal (it was exclusive at the time) God of War The Last of Us Part 2 Uncharted 4 Bloodborne Shadow of the Colossus Remake and Astrobot's Rescue Mission Additionally, the earliest of these game release was Bloodborne in 2015, two years after the PS4 launched. If the pattern of releases is retained between generations, Ragnarok may be the real start of this generation.
Not surprising Persona is topping this survey but also kind of disappointing. ATLUS has a bunch of interesting games stuck on older consoles and people are asking for a Persona 4 remake above all of them? Persona 3 doesn't even seem like it needs a remake, just a complete edition.

@ShogunRok agreed. It's quite ironic.

As I recall, everyone really enjoyed GZ, it was the fact that it was an hour for $40 and wasn't advertised as a prologue that pissed people off
Re: One Piece Odyssey PS5, PS4 Trophies Will Make You Grind for that Platinum
I've played through Persona 5 three times for the platinum, I absolutely will do the same for One Piece
