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.
I liked Downpour. This Japanese setting doesn’t work for me, it’s not Silent Hill without that Americana charm. Plus, the protagonist is supposed to be a normal person. No combat abilities, just a normal helpless soul.
Game sounds more like Fatal Frame or one of the more recent failed survival horror in the same setting.
This sounds like the downfall of Intellivision, Coleco, Atari whatever, commodore, Sega and now Xbox. I’m sure I missed a lot, but I’ve been there since pong, and this sh*t never gets old.

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.

Can’t wait until an AI game studio releases a game.

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'

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

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.
Re: New PS Plus Game Alan Wake 2 Offers All Its DLC at a Bargain Price
Lake House is an inkraising experience.

It’s not a circle…
Re: Prototype Remaster Could Potentially Be Happening, Evidence Found in PC Version
Nothing like destroying everything than prototype. Soldiers, people, tanks all yum yum.
Re: Rumour: The Lord of the Rings Is Getting a Game to 'Compete with Hogwarts Legacy'
Start as a lowly goblin then slowly work your way to lordship in the magical tower of torture. (that is definitely not for torture).
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for October 2025 Announced
It’s not a loop.
Re: Silent Hill F (PS5) - Brutal Survival Horror Walks a New Path
I liked Downpour. This Japanese setting doesn’t work for me, it’s not Silent Hill without that Americana charm. Plus, the protagonist is supposed to be a normal person. No combat abilities, just a normal helpless soul.

Re: Rare PS5 DualSense Controller Worth $1,300 'Completely Destroyed' in Transit
Most carriers have insurance which covers these types of expenses.

Only thing fun is to play 1.0 version of the game, so many fun bugs.
Re: Preview: The Outer Worlds 2 Doubles Down on RPG Gameplay to Great Effect
It looks good, just not for $80.
Re: Lords of the Fallen 2 Announced for a 2026 PS5 Launch
Light, darkness and death. What a wonderful world to save (ruin) again. Need more ridiculous STR weapons.
Re: PS Plus Overloads DayZ's Servers and Causes Connectivity Issues
Think Goat Simulator and you’ve got a good idea of what DayZ is like.
Re: UK Citizens Using Death Stranding 2 on PS5 to Bypass Porn Blocks
Desperate times calls for creative ideas.
Re: Dino Crisis-Inspired Shooter Code Violet Gets a PS5 Exclusive Release Date
She’s drawn rather nicely, laser puzzles, crawlspace action, dinosaurs and alien tech. Looks good.
Re: Sony Says PS5 Is the Best Place to Watch in TV Centric Ad
Got Crunchyroll on it, real basic setup, no episode premieres, just the index and continue watching. Netflix works the same as on a normal tv.
Re: Iconic Final Fantasy Illustrator Yoshitaka Amano Inks an Original Design for Smartphone Resident Evil Spin-Off
Tendrils or tentacles. Like a mutated mushroom.
Re: Time Flies in This Hand-Drawn PS5 Adventure About an Annoying Bug
There’s got to be a part where you can land on poop. Lay eggs on fruit, some maggot love in an expansion.
Re: Xbox's Promising MMORPG Sounds Like the Most Baffling Cancellation
Without taking a risk on innovation, the industry will stagnate.
Re: Digimon Story Time Stranger Gameplay Overview Offers Up New PS5 Footage
Miss the digimon saying their names.
Re: Mass Layoffs at Xbox Expected to Be Confirmed on 2nd July
This sounds like the downfall of Intellivision, Coleco, Atari whatever, commodore, Sega and now Xbox. I’m sure I missed a lot, but I’ve been there since pong, and this sh*t never gets old.
Re: UK's Death Stranding 2 PS5 Physical Sales Displace Mario Kart World, But Down 66% Compared to Predecessor
Too expensive, especially with the new tariffs in place. Gaming takes a back seat to food and shelter.
Re: Opinion: Diablo 4's Story Campaign Is Well Worth Playing on PS Plus
Reminds me of Gauntlet. Lots of fighting, not much else.
Re: Devolver's First-Person Hotline Miami-Like Anger Foot Confirmed for July Launch on PS5
This looks like that talking gun game. Love the over-the-top characters.
Re: 'This Isn't What I Expected': MindsEye Actor Weighs in on PS5 Flop's Shoddy Launch
Publisher should have done a Batgirl and shelved it.

Amazon offers a nice insurance package on controllers where they replace it for free if (when) it breaks. On 6th controller since day 1.
