My Switch 2 finally cleared customs and should arrive tomorrow or on Monday. So this week I was just putting rounds in Mario Kart 8D before moving on to World, and just occasionally playing AC Shadows. And tomorrow I'm going to play russian billiard with my friend, I really want to get better at it.
I really don't like Dead Space, but I'm interested in Pragmata. Capcom makes great games, but lately they are way too focused on Resident Evil/Street Fighter/Monster Hunter, it's nice to see something new for a change.
I like Dark Souls. I hate it's influence. I want more challenging, tough as nails games, but without estus flasks, corpse runs and attack mapped to R1.
@Lup mainly country if origin, but sometimes setting too, like Persian in PoP Lost Crown or Sicilian in Mafia Old Country. Oh, and I absolutely dislike God of War, both old and new.
I finally managed to secure a Switch 2 for myself, but it will arrive only in two weeks, so for now I'm finishing some other stuff.
Lies of P: Overture (Steam Deck) Brilliant add-on for already great game, and I'm very glad I finished it before nerf. Gunblade is so satisfying.
Sleeping Dogs (PS5) A man who never played Sleeping Dogs is never a man full. Loved that game on PS3, bought PS4 version ages ago, but only managed to get to it now. Base game is as good as I remember it, but DLC... Well... It sucks, no two ways about it. Can't recommend it to anyone.
Crypt Custodian (Gamepass) Very charming and engaging metroidvania with topdown gameplay. Ending was a real tearjerker, made me go and hug my cat.
This weekend I'll probably return to AC Shadows, I bought it a month ago but what it managed to do was make me return to Rise of the Ronin and platinum it. That's it for now, have a nice weekend everyone.
@HallowMoonshadow I would love DDS collection. I would love DDS3 even more. I seriously hope that Atlus remembers more often than SMT is more than just Persona.
Please buy it, so I could have King Abaddon remaster, it is much better game than Soulless Army. Not that the first game is bad, sequel just improves every aspect.
I don't know, I really enjoyed SH2 Remake, but I wonder if it has more to do with the original being the timeless masterpiece, not with Blooper talent. Their original games, well, sucked.
I played the demo and while the combat is still superb, every enemy still drops tons of diablo-styled colored loot. I hate that sh*t more and more with each year.

Re: Ghost of Yotei's Pricey $250 PS5 Collector's Edition Is for the Hardcore Fans Only
It's kinda difficult to be a hardcore fan of a game we don't know sheet about, but people here somehow manage.

Greetings, good people.
My Switch 2 finally cleared customs and should arrive tomorrow or on Monday. So this week I was just putting rounds in Mario Kart 8D before moving on to World, and just occasionally playing AC Shadows. And tomorrow I'm going to play russian billiard with my friend, I really want to get better at it.
That's all for now, have a great weekend.
Re: Resident Evil Requiem PS5 Was Open World, Online in Early Tests
Those 2% voting for online multiplayer must be lurking Concord devs.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Death Stranding 2?
I definitely tried to like previous Kojima games, but eww no. He has some good ideas, but can't write a good story to save his life.
Re: Preview: Don't Sleep on Capcom's Pragmata, the Most Inventive PS5 Shooter in Years
@Oram77 I'm not saying they shouldn't, but throwing a bone to Mega Man/Breath of Fire enjoyers once in a while would be appreciated.
@get2sammyb yeah, I really enjoyed Kunitsu-Gami, shame not many people did. Looking forward to Onimusha too.

Re: 'We're Not Looking to Put First-Party Games in PS Plus Day and Date': Sony Rejects Xbox Game Pass Model
@get2sammyb undisputed? Every single person who plays video games considered Astro Bot their game of the year? Really?
Re: 'We're Not Looking to Put First-Party Games in Day and Date': PS Plus Rejects Xbox Game Pass Model
Why so many people here act not like players, but Sony shareholders?
Re: Xbox Looker Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 Runs at a Slick 60fps on PS5
I can't even call it beautiful when 80% of the screen is black colour.
Re: Phantom Blade Zero Dev Reiterates Yet Again That PS5 Stunner Is Not a Soulslike
I like Dark Souls. I hate it's influence. I want more challenging, tough as nails games, but without estus flasks, corpse runs and attack mapped to R1.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2025 Announced
I already have Diablo IV with add-on, have zero interest in Jusant, but will try KoF if it has cross play. Does it?
Re: Feature: Top 20 PS5 Games of 2025 So Far
No love for Atelier Yumia and Trails through Daybreak 2 saddens me.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Update 1.0.6 Out Tomorrow on PS5, Full Patch Notes Revealed
I don't have a slightest idea what critical role is, but I'm still sure it has no place in AC universe.

Everybody, we practiced this. Act surprised!

Re: 'I Feel Like a Total Fraud': Actor Charlie Cox Reflects on Expedition 33 Success
I'm sure he did a great job, but I played with French voiceover. I prefer to play every game with native voices.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 586
@Steame yes and no. It often crashes at the start when loading a game. But once it manages to start it runs flawlessly without any issues.

Please, please let me map attacks to face buttons without breaking the whole thing. It was possible in all previous games, why not now?

Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2025 So Far?
Clair Obscur
Atelier Yumia

@DaveTheRave yeah, how dare different country have a different mentality?! We are right and they are wrong!
Re: 9 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available Now on PS5, PS4
Play Katamari if you haven't yet. As for Deus Ex, better get it on PC.
Re: Stellar Blade 2 Dev Will Try Its Best to Hit 2027 Release, But Don't Expect It
I might be the only one who really enjoyed the story and can't wait to find out what happens next.
Re: There's a Lot of Hype for PS5 Horror Cronos: The New Dawn
I don't know, I really enjoyed SH2 Remake, but I wonder if it has more to do with the original being the timeless masterpiece, not with Blooper talent. Their original games, well, sucked.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for June 2025?
Katamari is great, but I already bought it day one on switch. Other than that... Well, yeah.
Re: Atelier's New PS5 Protagonist Looks Like a VTuber, And That's Fine by Us
Now this looks like a real Atelier game, not a new game with some Atelier elements. Though I hope mobile roots won't be showing themselves much.

Re: The Outer Worlds 2 Is an $80 Game on PS5, as Xbox Continues to Push Game Pass

@crackeastwood totally, calling it 3+4 is just false advertising.

Re: Persona 4 Remake Announced for PS5
Already dreading what localisators will do with Kanji and Naoto.
Re: Beast of Reincarnation Is an Action RPG from Pokémon Studio Game Freak
I really, really hope it's not a soulslike. Not in the terms of difficulty, but without stamina meter, bonfires, corpse runs and all that sh*t.
Re: Ninja Gaiden 4 Looks Like a Stunning Sequel, Slashes PS5 in October
Once again I'm hoping it's more Team Ninja and less Platinum. But seeing how Nioh 3 already has a demo, it seems unlikely.
Re: Next Tales of Remaster Announcement Confirmed for This Summer
I really love both Xillia games, but I'm not interested in remasters, I can replay originals any time I want. I want a new entry.
Re: Third Plague Tale Game Leaks Ahead of Xbox Show, Out for PS5 in 2026
Title sounds more like a spinoff or compilation than a third game.
Re: No, Nioh 3 Isn't Open World, Despite Team Ninja's Rise of the Ronin Experiment
I played the demo and while the combat is still superb, every enemy still drops tons of diablo-styled colored loot. I hate that sh*t more and more with each year.
