@stvevan "so you would pay what 5-10 for RR2?" - Yes, yes I would.
"premium for 400+ more than extra is only around 15 more than extra anyway." - Per month! That same $15 would net me a full game without subscription.
My PS account is 10 years old, I already own the vast majority of the PS4 titles available and PS3 streaming isn't available in my region. My PSClassic has more classic PS1 titles on it than Deluxe does right now.
PS+ Deluxe is absolutely not worth the cost to me in it's current form, and SONY need to pull their heads out of their ass and start putting way more content into Deluxe before I would consider it, it's a joke as is right now.
Hopefully this and Mirage will keep both sides of the fence happy.
Personally I love them all, but I can understand why some dislike the direction the RPG series took them. Good to see they are apparently splitting the franchise.
@Fyz306903 You're still on PS4 yeah? Personally I would start with Origins. The gold edition goes for really cheap now and will be a good indication of whether or not the new direction is for you.
Me personally, I'm bias in that I absolutely love open world games and get side tracked so easily exploring things. I never found any of the latest 3 AC games to be a grind. Played the entirety of them all as stealth build.
If you do pick up Valhalla I would recommend turning on guaranteed assassinations. That way it plays more like a traditional stealth AC game. There are also options to level the playing field via combat difficulty. It removes the "grind", but dampens the overall experience of the game imo.
@Fyz306903 I'm still on the fence with the DLC. Finished the main game and haven't touched it since.
I usually do the same but Valhalla was a gift that didn't include the season pass. At 175+ hours though, I've more than had my moneys worth out of it.
I'll probably pick it up on the next sale, whenever that is. Ragnarok though, I'll wait and see. Single player games don't have an urgency to be played. And as Medic_Alert said, waiting is always a good idea.
That's not how discounts work with Ubi DLC. The base games drop massively, not in the overly exaggerated 1 month period, but they do drop. DLC doesn't.
"the point is waiting is a good idea but you do you."
"No doubt this is a ‘boot to the throat’ move upon micro$oft (aka microshaft) no doubt!!!"
This is the funniest thing I've read in this thread so far....
This isn't going to be a GamePass killer, not even in your wildest dreams. It needs native backwards compatibility to even compete, not streaming, which it will be. Or have flagship titles day 1, which it won't either.
@BrettAwesome That's a thing? Your or enemy grenades? Can't say I've experience that yet. I use proxy detect grenades andy they always bounce off walls.

Re: The Crew Motorfest (PS5) - Third Time's the Charm in This Vibrant, Varied Racer
@Northern_munkey Do you apply this level of thinking to every game? Doom did FPS games 30 years ago, guess I can't enjoy any other fps games now?

Re: Metal Gear Solid's PS5 Master Collection Adds Two More Titles
@PSXDave It skips the fight or the option?
Good to know it's been addressed either way.
Re: Metal Gear Solid's PS5 Master Collection Adds Two More Titles
I'm curios how the MGS1 Psycho Mantis fight will play out without being able to use port 2?
Re: Motorsport Legend Ken Block Dies in Tragic Accident
RIP Ken.
Sad coincidence that we also lost the previous face of Codemasters Rally games - Colin McRae

Allow me to buy Ridge Racers 2 and I'll be extremely happy. Premium isn't worth the cost in it's current form imo.
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla's Spooky Seasonal Festival Is Back with New Rewards
@KennethKoerperich88 You really are bad at this aren't you?
Only the vocal minority think this way about the game. It was a huge success with high rating across the board. But keep on pretending chump.
Your insults are hilariously bad too smh.
Yep, nobody is playing it, lmfao

Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla's Spooky Seasonal Festival Is Back with New Rewards
@KennethKoerperich88 based on your comment history of a few days old account you're 100% the troll here.
Still can't come up with anything original though.
Highest grossing AC title to date and you think no one plays it, hilarious.

Remember when they were trying to sell this as playing the classics?
Re: Assassin's Creed Finally Goes to Japan as Ubisoft Takes on Ghost of Tsushima
@invictus4000 alternate take, enjoy them both for what they are. I personally found Tsushima just as repetitive as any AC game, but that's just me.

Re: Latest PS Store Sale Reduces Prices on PS5, PS4 DLC, Special Editions, More
@nomither6 Agreed. I'm not paying that price for a compilation of games that are 3/4 free on mobile.
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (PS5) - A Radical Bundle with an Incredible Gallery
@SMcCrae95 Awesome. I don't mind border artwork when the screen is maximized, but not the way it is in the screenshots.
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (PS5) - A Radical Bundle with an Incredible Gallery
Can you make the games full screen? Not a fan of massive borders filled with artwork.
Re: Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium (PS4) - Coin-Op Compilation Is Filled with Classics
@hi_drnick I'm pretty sure that was so they could justify the price increase for individual games this time around.

So hopefully we'll get folders on PS5 late next year too lol.

That's not how discounts work with Ubi DLC.

DLC doesn't.
"the point is waiting is a good idea but you do you."
I never said it wasn't.
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok Costs $40, Not Included in the Season Pass
@Medic_Alert
"It will be under £10 in 6 months....."
No it won't. Season passes & DLC never go that low, it's taken a year for the season pass to get to it's all time low of £16.49.
Prior to that the lowest it saw was £25.

Are we getting 128 player servers or what Sony?
