@Zahpeter Tons of content and support for new players. Haven’t played in a few months (trying arknights), the skip button is a welcome addition. Very sci-fi with the previous worlds of ice kingdom. Asian, cartoon, futuristic Roman Empire and now anime. It’s definitely unique.
A dose of maturity would do wonders for Stories. The collection mechanic is fun with rare monsters to catch, breed, merge, evolve, butcher. Still waiting for a snake like monster.
Comes down to the Batgirl movie. Fully completed with everything, but shelved at last minute. It’s not a popularity move, it’s a business decision. Marketing and publishing are expensive. Why invest in something that didn’t grab the attention of anyone outside fan service?
It’s like it was trying to be too many things while doing each thing poorly. From advertising to design, this was the proverbial wall, complete with brown stains.
I mean if they included multiple types of races (car, pod, spaceship) and maybe some sort of plot. Meh, still just another Star Wars game with a new coat of paint.
The fights in Ubisoft games are predictable. Putting in an AI to control a bad guy who not only counters you, but can hunt you down. Now you can have an entire city of unique, living AI people in a game. Kinda Sword Art without the Dive.
Aside from the usual banter about AI, it would be refreshing if some developer just went all in on creating a Skynet just to see if it could kill us all.
Beat the game already, biggest complaints I have are no hunting, too many trees. Seems majority of open space is either trees, water or rolling fields. Can still play as yasuke, stand on a roof and snipe everything. Nobody can climb it seems.
First game was a treat with a multitude of ways to handle investigations. The characters were a misshapen group of eclectic fishermen, owners, and backwater book stores. This is a day 1 purchase.

Re: Preview: This GTA-Inspired Anime Game Took Me by Surprise on PS5
Add it to my list, pending updates, finished with Arknights and HSR. This and 7 deadly sins have my attention.
Re: 10 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for February 2026 Announced
Best part of Monster Hunter stories is the post game. Big scary bosses.
Re: Unsurprisingly, Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined Is a Massive Hit in Japan
I don’t think those Xbox numbers are sustainable.
Re: Romeo Is a Dead Man (PS5) - Absurd, Entertaining, and Tedious All at Once
So it’s a trash game. People who crave this type of game will flock to it.

Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (January 2026)
Just got to the 2nd chapter of Endfield. I think the capital might be bigger than all of chapter 1.
Re: Monster Hunter Stories 3 Demo Out Now on PS5, with Saves Carrying Over to the Full RPG
A dose of maturity would do wonders for Stories. The collection mechanic is fun with rare monsters to catch, breed, merge, evolve, butcher. Still waiting for a snake like monster.
Re: The Last of Us TV Show Might Be Over After Season 3
I don’t see how they could do a sequel to tLou2, characters seemed pretty tired of everything violent by the end of the game.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for February 2026 Announced
Undisputedly Below the Ultra Unknown. Besides Ultros, back to the free to play genre for this month.
Re: Phantom Blade Zero Destined to Be a Worldwide Hit as Anticipation Grows
Looks like Devil May Nioh. Frantic weapon swinging with a Nioh rpg added in, could be fun.
Re: 'Everything Had Been Going Smoothly': Prince of Persia PS5 Remake Actress Found Out About Cancellation from Family
Comes down to the Batgirl movie. Fully completed with everything, but shelved at last minute. It’s not a popularity move, it’s a business decision. Marketing and publishing are expensive. Why invest in something that didn’t grab the attention of anyone outside fan service?
Re: PS Plus Essential Game for February 2026 Leaked
Really cleaning out the closet here.
Re: All Signs Point to Resident Evil: Code Veronica PS5 Remake in 2027
Story wise, it’s a great intro into weird variants of the G-Virus, fortunately we know now how it relates to RE8.
Re: Fable Announced for PS5, Releases in Autumn 2026
Time to eat some baby chicks, go evil and do very bad things like kicking chickens, people, mud.
Re: Prince of Persia Remake and 5 Other Games Cancelled by Ubisoft
Corporate speak for “game sucks, won’t make money”.
Re: Death Stranding Is So Multi-Platform That It's Now Going on Game Pass
I wonder if they ever made the curve zip lines online, great sequel.
Re: Code Veronica the Next Resident Evil Remake, Say New Reports
Before RE8 I would have loved this, but after?
Re: Yes, RPG Arknights: Endfield Is Absolutely Looking Like PS5's Next Big Gacha Hit
Well after 800 hours on HSR, I need something different, will give this a go.
Re: Talking Point: Did ANTHEM Deserve the Hate?
It’s like it was trying to be too many things while doing each thing poorly. From advertising to design, this was the proverbial wall, complete with brown stains.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for January 2026?
May try Mickey after I get sick of The Long Dark, damn near died to everything including a mineshaft.
Re: Code Violet (PS5) - Gooner Shooter Can't Get It Up
Hilarious as always. Can unpin this from my wishlist of a perfect dark clone gone awry.
Re: Xbox Sales Hit New Low in UK, Barely Competes with PS5 at This Point
End of an era. Coleco, Intellivision, commodore, sega and Microsoft. Cat consoles notwithstanding.
Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Believes Exclusives Make Consoles 'Sing'
I’d actually play a survival Mario apocalypse.
Re: Star Wars Racing Games Are Back in Galactic Racer, Out for PS5 in 2026
I mean if they included multiple types of races (car, pod, spaceship) and maybe some sort of plot. Meh, still just another Star Wars game with a new coat of paint.
Re: PS5 Outsold by an Unexpected Rival in the Run Up to Black Friday
Their acronym spells out “pigs”. Just weird. Kids are gonna eat that up 4 to 8, perfect babysitter.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 1's Free PS5 Upgrade Is Available to Download Now, Included with PS Plus Extra
@CaptainWow There’s nothing to it, it’s like VS, they come to you.
Re: These 13+ PS5, PS4, and PS Plus Games Are Coming Out Next Week (1st-7th December)
Can’t wait to see how many bugs and crashes occur. The previous version was crasherific.
Re: Far Cry TV Series Officially Announced, from Creators of Fargo and Always Sunny
So, expect a lot of dark humor, which is also trademark for Farcry games.
Re: A Game About Digging a Hole Is the Next Viral PC Hit Burrowing onto PS5 Soon
Every kid who played in a sand box or at a beach knows the joys of digging a hole.
Re: New Report Finds Almost Half of US Kids Are After In-Game Currency for Christmas
Uh, I’m a US adult and want PS credits for Xmas.
Re: Ubisoft Is All In on Generative AI, Says It's as Big a Leap in Tech as the 'Shift to 3D'
The fights in Ubisoft games are predictable. Putting in an AI to control a bad guy who not only counters you, but can hunt you down. Now you can have an entire city of unique, living AI people in a game. Kinda Sword Art without the Dive.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Sales Top 4 Million with Still No Sign of an Expansion
Played and beat it after release, a lot of backtracking, bugged quests and talkative pawns galore. Too many dragons, this isn’t Skyrim.
Re: Horizon MMO Uses AI 'Extensively' in Development, Says NCSOFT
Can’t wait until an AI game studio releases a game.
Re: 9 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for November 2025 Announced
Pick up the Talos 2 DLC for insidiously difficult puzzles.
Re: You Can Live the Death Stranding Experience with This Awesome Real Life Exoskeleton
Will be nice to have after the apocalypse of tar and pizza.
Re: First PS Plus Extra Game for November 2025 Leaked
Just re something to Bully.
Re: Generative AI Won't Be Creating the Next GTA, Says Take-Two Boss
Anime figured this out years ago. AI can govern individual or groups inside a game, while humans run the game.
Re: Sony Bend's PS5 Game Cancellation Could Be Seen Coming, Says Ex Dev
Could have made a sequel to DG 10x over the amount of time and money spent on snicker live service failures, I mean games. Stick to what you know.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for November 2025 Announced
Guessing that’s not an accurate battle simulator.
Re: PUBG and Hi-Fi Rush Owner Krafton Is Spending $70 Million to Become an 'AI-First Company'
Aside from the usual banter about AI, it would be refreshing if some developer just went all in on creating a Skynet just to see if it could kill us all.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Update 1.1.4 Brings Major Additions, Full Patch Notes Revealed
Beat the game already, biggest complaints I have are no hunting, too many trees. Seems majority of open space is either trees, water or rolling fields. Can still play as yasuke, stand on a roof and snipe everything. Nobody can climb it seems.
Re: Crash Bandicoot Set to Spin into New Netflix Animated Adaptation
This might’ve worked better 20 years ago, just a waste of money at this point.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Halo: Campaign Evolved on PS5?
Video games and comics, Halo sold well. The tv show, terrible. Last tried it on Xbox 360, that long ago. Not worth it.
Re: Bethesda Is Working on New Fallout Games, Todd Howard Confirms
Todd Howard reminds me of Peter Molyneux during the early fable days. All talk, no bluster.
Re: The Outer Worlds 2 (PS5) - Mechanically Fantastic RPG Struggles to Be Memorable
A game to wait until it hits plus or essential then.
Re: Xbox, PC Sci-Fi RPG Starfield Won't Be Revealed for PS5 Until Next Year
Another year just gives No Man’s Sky more time to being a better space simulator than whatever Starfield is.
Re: The Sinking City 2 Had Been Targeting a Surprise PS5 Release, Delayed Due to War in Ukraine
First game was a treat with a multitude of ways to handle investigations. The characters were a misshapen group of eclectic fishermen, owners, and backwater book stores. This is a day 1 purchase.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for October 2025?
Own SH2, UD and Yakuza. It’s Poppy time.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Sales Fall Off In Japan, But PS5 Exclusive Still Sticks Around in Second Place
Same game, different protagonist, different land, same game. Much like the AC series.
Re: Poppy Playtime: Chapter 1
Merchandise, cartoon on Netflix, a game. Somebody paid attention to Spaceballs.
