I've played through Inquisition several times and have chosen differently. So I'll just pick whatever I feel like then Veilguard drops. Really looking forward to it.
I must say I love this direction they are heading in. And I dont mind a franchise as long as the games habe high quality. Movies, series, etc. never bothered me if they fall flat or break the lore (looking at you Witcher) as long as the game delivers!
Stellar Blade DLC in second place warms my heart. From this State of Play I'm buying or more interested in Ghost of Yotei, Stellar Blade DLC, MH Wilds, AW2 Lakehouse, DA Veilguard and LEGO Horizon. In other words, for me this State of Play had a pretty strong showing.
I literally unlocked the last outfit yesterday (took me 4 playthroughs, no guides). Gonna be a good time messing around in photo mode. And that NieR Automata DLC cant come soon enough. Last thing this game needs is freeroam after having beaten the game.
First off, Ghost of Yotai looks amazing. I think Dragon Age Veilguard and Monster Hunter Wilds got two really good trailers. Lego Horizon looks hilarious. I might upgrade to the PS5 version of Zero Dawn to plat it again if I find myself in a drought. Maybe. Looking forward to Lake House DLC for Alan Wake. Finally, I get photo mode in Stellar Blade. And that NieR Automata collab got me very excited.
This weekend on PS5 I'm playing Astro Bot, Stellar Blade (only 3 suits left to find) and Alan Wake 2 ng+. I love how they integraded the DLC into the main story, very nice touch. On Xbox I'm doing some sidequests in Witcher 3. On the Switch I'm doing some sidequests in TotK. It's not often I'm jumping between all 3 consoles but when I do I absolutely love it.
I think the problem is the release schedule. Too many FF games, pixel remakes etc released over a short period of time. They should have wrapped up the 7 remake triology before crisis core remake and 16 imo.
I'm giving it a 9 because some of the powers only showed up once while others overstayed their welcome. All levels are super solid though and lots of fun!
No, I wouldn't. And the reason is that four years into the cycle of ps5 and series x I still don't feel like this is next gen. And thats because this gen has been cluttered with cross gen releases and remakes. I would love a list of games that are this generation only and compare if with a list which was only released on ps4 in the same timeframe.
Short answer. Yes. Too expensive. Personally, the bigger problem is I don't see the point of it at all. Now a new Nintendo on the other hand... I can't wait.
@Fiendish-Beaver In Fallout and Starfield certain modes turn off achievements/trophies. On PC theres a mod to turn them on again despite using other modes but that mode is not available on PS or Xbox...
I picked up Astrobot because it reviewed well and I'm kind of in between games right now. I'm not really a fan of 3D platformers but perhaps this game will convince me. It definetly looks fun enough. And I love all the Easter eggs in it. Looking forward to playing it later today.
@SoulChimera The tournament trophy is terrible. I ended up searching for a booster group online and managed to find one (it's dead now unfortunatly). But with some boosting, and some luck against randoms I managed to secure 10 wins over a couple tournaments. The tournaments are still only every 8 hours and not every day which is a terrible system. A good tip is to have different fighters with different rankings, that way you can join more rooms when SF host ranking based tournaments.
So I finally beat BG3!!! For me it was a hard game to master but when it finally clicked, it is so good! I went from giving up on the game in act 1 to rolling credits with a big grin on my face. I can imagine this being a game I will play over again just to take different paths in the future.
This weekend it's back to a steady rotation of hunting down the final costumes in Stellar Blade on PS5. Forza 4 and Starfield (with the new vehicle) on Series X while waiting for Shattered Space next month. And nothing on Switch OLED unfortunatly. I think my next game will be Lego Horizon on that console.
Im also really looking forward to Dragon Age Veilguard.
Crimson Desert looks very good! Cant wait for a release and some good reviews. Not sure if this game is for me but it certainly is making a great impression.

In Norway the pricetag is 1400 dollars for the 30th anniversary. 1000 dollars for the pro. I can get a proper gaming pc for that amount...

Re: Stellar Blade's NieR: Automata Collab Only Happening Because Yoko Taro Loves Money
Yoko Taro is awesome. I hope there will be an Automata sequel or another NieR game soon.

@Rezium Same. He really struck gold with 2B.
Re: PS5's Ghost of Yotei Triggers Social Media, Ex-Sony Exec Says 'If You Don't Like It, Don't Buy It'
I absolutely love their decision to set the sequel in another region and 300 years later. Day one for sure.
Re: The Biggest PS5, PS4 Winners from a Humongous State of Play
@playstation1995 Yeah. That looked incredible. Day one if the reviews are good!

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Delayed on PS5 Until 14th February
So Ubisoft saw the Ghost trailer and thought, we need to cook more. lol.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Is the Ghost of Tsushima Sequel We Needed, Slashing to PS5 in 2025
If it's as good as the first one this might be my GOTY next year.

Another game on my wish list. Something cozy for Christmas.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for September 2024?
First off, Ghost of Yotai looks amazing.
I think Dragon Age Veilguard and Monster Hunter Wilds got two really good trailers.
Lego Horizon looks hilarious. I might upgrade to the PS5 version of Zero Dawn to plat it again if I find myself in a drought. Maybe.
Looking forward to Lake House DLC for Alan Wake.
Finally, I get photo mode in Stellar Blade. And that NieR Automata collab got me very excited.
Re: State of Play Coming Today, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
You know what I would love. A proper Drakengard remake with lots of improvements and a lot of stuff cut out from the original.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for Tomorrow, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
If I get an update on Pragmata or Aftermath I'll be more than happy. Oh, add Death Stranding 2 to that list.
Re: How To Pre-Order PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection
I really want a dual sense controller. Hope I can get one.
Re: Lord of the Rings Life Sim Tales of the Shire Out for PS5 in March 2025

Re: PS5 Exclusives Final Fantasy 16, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Failed to Meet Expectations
@Fishmasterflex96 I agree. Hopefully they will port them over to Xbox.

Re: LEGO Horizon Adventures Bares Its 'A*s' in ESRB Rating for PS5, PC, Switch
I'm really looking forward to this game. I plan on buying it on the Switch though so I hope the performance is fine.
Re: Preview: Unknown 9 Awakening Plays Like a Long Lost PS3 Remaster on PS5, PS4
If the reviews are good I'll buy it. I remember I was intrigued when the game was first revealed waaaay back.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
I bought Astro Bot last weekend. Platted it. And now I'm starting a new game with my son. Enjoy your weekend everybody!
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
@Diowine I can agree on this. Took me 16hrs to get the plat. I wonder how fast I vould rush through it...
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
I'm giving it a 9 because some of the powers only showed up once while others overstayed their welcome. All levels are super solid though and lots of fun!
Re: Poll: Would You Buy PS5 Pro If It Was Cheaper?
No, I wouldn't. And the reason is that four years into the cycle of ps5 and series x I still don't feel like this is next gen. And thats because this gen has been cluttered with cross gen releases and remakes. I would love a list of games that are this generation only and compare if with a list which was only released on ps4 in the same timeframe.
Re: 'It Makes Sense Why the PS5 Pro Price Is So High,' Say Tech Experts
It also makes sense that I wont buy it at that price.
Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
Someone said for the PS5 Pro price you can get a digital PS5 + a Nintendo Switch or an Xbox Series S.
Re: Talking Point: Is PS5 Pro Way Too Expensive?
Short answer. Yes. Too expensive. Personally, the bigger problem is I don't see the point of it at all. Now a new Nintendo on the other hand... I can't wait.
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?
I dont care about any of the improvements and it is too expensive. My next console from Sony is the PS6 pro.
Re: Predictably, Baldur's Gate 3's Modding Scene Is Absolutely Massive

Re: PS5 Pro Showcase Set for Tomorrow, Hosted by Mark Cerny
@MBalz_EsHari And that is one of the reason I'm not buying one.

Re: Street Fighter 6 Still Kicking, Over Four Million Copies Sold
@Korgon You need to let us know how that went when you get there. SF6 is a great game, even for non-fighters like me. haha.
