Re: State of Play September 2025 Predictions: Marvel's Wolverine, Resident Evil Requiem, God of War, and More

CWill97

@nomither6 honestly, I wanted to stream them using the PS3 games on PS+. But for some reason, my internet hates the streaming service from my PS5. In God of War, having terrible lag is actually a big detriment because every time I had to button mash an input, it would almost never register properly. So I REALLY want to play the originals and hope they get a proper and well-deserved remake

Re: State of Play September 2025 Predictions: Marvel's Wolverine, Resident Evil Requiem, God of War, and More

CWill97

As someone who never played the originals, I just want a God of War Trilogy remaster, port or remake. I love Greek mythology and want to experience the originals so badly

Some FF7 Remake Part 3 news would be amazing but unlikely. I’m expecting all the Yakuza updates to be at the RGG showcase. I’ll take some RE9 updates though! Anything Clair Obscur (like a DLC) would be wicked too but unlikely for this State of Play. A Wolverine release date would be awesome as well!

Re: Ghost of Yotei's Very Reasonable Dev Budget on Par with Predecessor

CWill97

I want to play Ghost of Yotei Day 1 but…

1. I’m playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and just met Verso who’s the man

2. I have a wedding I’m attending a week after release. So I don’t want to start it then have a long pause in-between

3. Maybe if I’m patient, there’ll be a decent enough discount on Black Friday. Highly unlikely because it’s a PS Studios game but… dreamers gonna dream :’)

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Gets Yet Another Surprise Patch on PS5

CWill97

I really, really, REALLY hope we get a PS6 version down the line. Heck, I’d pay for it full price.

I platinum’ed the game well before the big update 2.whatever and had an amazing time. I expected CD Projeckt Red to go “The Witcher 3” route with a complete edition which includes the DLC and… a brand new trophy list.

Now, I understand I can play the DLC and all… no worries. But Cyberpunk 2077 was a slam dunk candidate to be a double platinum game. I refuse to auto-pop trophies so I would’ve had a clean playthrough. I’m torturing myself for no reason. This is a me problem, not a CD Projeckt Red/Cyberpunk 2077 problem

Re: Octopath Traveler 0 Confirmed and Set for a PS5 Release This December

CWill97

I still need to play the first one. I platinum’ed the second and have been slowly doing a second playthrough. Now I’m motivated to buy and play the first!

Octopath Traveler 0 definitely looks awesome. I love how all 8 characters will be able to contribute rather than just the 4. It spices things up from the second game. I’m looking forward to it!

….and the save data bonuses are such a sweet add-on. Honestly I don’t get why more studios don’t do this. It seems like a slam dunk move in most cases

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 588

CWill97

I finished Chapters 1 & 2 of Death Stranding and it took me 9 and 1/2 hours. I took my sweet time with it hoarding as many packages as I could find though.

Now, I’m taking a break and replaying Persona 3 Reload. Gonna do one “dungeon phase” at a time then take massive breaks in between tbh

Re: Square Enix 'Aware' of Clair Obscur's Success, Ponders Turn-Based RPG Revival

CWill97

Square Enix should be able to do both. They’re more than capable of pulling that off. Just make a spin off series with the FF name that targets action like FF7R or turn-base then make the mainline games the other. And obviously keep going with FFXIV. Once FF7 Part 3 is finished, it wouldn’t surprise me if they have major changes to the way they go about FF in the future

Re: Death Stranding 2 (PS5) - A Masterpiece in Every Sense

CWill97

I am now conflicted on buying this Day 1 or waiting for the community to build more strategically-placed structures before I begin. Seems like waiting may not matter if the natural disaster aspect can tear them all down 😂😂 I’m 100% playing the game; just don’t know if I’ll cave this week or next 😂😂

Re: Bungie Delays Marathon Indefinitely, No New PS5, PC Release Date Given

CWill97

Tons of questions now regarding this. Will they sink more money into this and try to make it work? Will they just can it? What happens to Bungie in either scenario above that results in a failure? If Bungie gets either bulldozed or resources significantly limited, is this Sony’s worst acquisition? Will Sony back off acquiring other devs because of this? Will Sony still desperately chase after live service games after literally losing billions of the acquisition proves unprofitable? Does Sony focus now shift to single player action-adventure games and they relocate assets that way? And many more questions. I’m not a live service shooter player myself so Marathon wasn’t interesting. But the ramifications of the game’s outcome was what intrigued me.

Re: Nioh 3 Announced for PS5, Demo Out Now for Two Weeks

CWill97

@Nepp67 yeah that’d be great. I’m not tryna rip on the game, but the loot system is such a turn off. If it had simplified the gear system into just one of a kind finds through exploration & fights and was less daunting/time consuming, it’d be an even better experience. But I’m sure Tom’s love their loot system and trying to optimize stats/builds that way

Re: State of Play Confirmed for 4th June, 40+ Minutes of PS5 Games

CWill97

Cool cool. I’m hoping some actually big studio showcases something new though instead of everything we already know is coming. Horizon 3 tease maybe for a 2026 release? Something God of War? Insomniac Marvel update with Spidey or Wolverine (or better yet, Ratchet & Clank)? Uncharted remakes, side game or anything Intergalatic from Naughty Dog? Saros gameplay? Ghost of Yotei gameplay? I’ll take anything newish please 😭😭😭

I’m worried companies just push everything back to late 2026+ because of GTA6 only for it to be delayed to late 2026 and beyond.

Re: The Witcher 4 Gameplay Revealed, Running on PS5 at 60fps with Ray Tracing

CWill97

Day 1 buy no matter what. Witcher 3 got me into the Witcher books so I’ll be forever grateful for that tbh. Plus, playing as Ciri is a dynamite decision if we didn’t have the choice to play as Geralt

Did the Cyberpunk 2077 release suck? Yes. But it was amazing later on so I feel like I still got my money’s worth anyways. I get people being hesitant on it but they did a ***** ton to repair that game. Only issue I have with them still is that they screwed people over who platinum’ed it before Update 2.0+. I would’ve loved to platinum it again so I’ll have to create a second account to play 2.0+ on the PS5 Pro

Re: New PS5 Games for June and July 2025

CWill97

I’m holding off on DS2 at launch solely because I want to experience what the online community sets up in terms of zip lines and other stuff in the game. I feel like playing at launch as a person who sucks at setting that stuff up isn’t a good combo. It’s not like I won’t have to set up zip lines but at least having some to pave the way makes it easier :’)))

Re: After Pre-Launch Sellout, Expedition 33 Offers Collector's Edition Content Standalone

CWill97

I just want the Steelbook. I wish they sold those separately because I’d bite on that so damn fast. I pre-ordered the regular edition Day 1 and would’ve paid extra for a steelbook. I might’ve missed it if they did do that but yeah.

I’ve actually only played 5ish hours of the game. But… I decided to hold it off because updates/patches will make this game even smoother and better. I stopped before heading into the area with the Gestral Village. If I had kept going, there was no stopping me. I very rarely have the patience to hold off on games that have me 100000% interested, but I felt that Clair Obscur was absolutely worth waiting for the most optimal experience. I cannot blame anyone for going full force into this game as its story, music, world-building, combat and characters all seem “high level” to me. The art theme is also incredible too which opens up the door for hundreds (over-exaggerating but whatever) of sequels/games with a different art medium in any world

So, I want to experience Clair Obscur: Expeditio 33 when it’s closer to being fully patched. I’d also love if they fixed the lip sync before I started back up. But that won’t ruin my experience tbh
