Deadhunter

I really loved this game until I got to the point where every dungeon I ran with a group was completely unenjoyable because a high level or two would just race through to the end. I didn't get to fight anything, pick up loot, or experience the environment or story. And if I asked them if we could slow down I got flamed. It totally killed it for me.

This game was such a major leap backward after Origins and Odyssey. It's ugly, boring and empty. Ubisoft needs to take a step back, take a few years off, and rethink the next entry.

@Tigerhoodman Yes! Absolutely one of the greatest game trilogies of all time. There's nothing else quite like the setting or story you build, and the characters are fantastic.

@fR_eeBritney LiS 2 is still very good, but it does spin it's wheels some in the middle. The central conflict is interesting, there are some very likeable characters, and some tough choices to make.

I won't pay full price for it, but I'll absolutely pick it up one day.

Great! Now work on getting sales displayed on PS5.

Since everyone's dropping opinions, I personally loved The Last Jedi and Rogue One, liked Force Awakens and Solo and hated Rise of Skywalker. I also love Mando and Rebels. Resistance sucked. The main problem with the sequel trilogy is that they didn't have a basic map in place. Everything was reactionary. VII was too derivative so VIII went in a lot of unexpected directions. Then there was backlash from some of the community, so IX erased a lot of what VIII had built. There wasn't a single satisfying character arc. I wish Filoni and Favreau had been in charge of the whole thing from the word go. As far as this game is concerned, I'm really looking forward to it and wish they'd throw out a release date.

I'm totally down. The last two Holmes titles weren't perfect, but I still enjoyed the hell out of them.

This game came so close to being good for me, but overly long puzzle sequences and bad platforming in vaults killed it for me. Not bad if you can pick it up on the cheap though.

I got the Miles platinum within days of release and have received nothing. But Sony never sends me anything, so I'm not shocked.

@djlard Same exact game, just with Wallace and Knives automatically included. If you still have your PS3, no reason to repurchase.

You really do feel like a jerk getting walloped by basic dudes at first. Though I did take Matthew Patel ("Are you a pirate?") without taking a hit.

@fR_eeBritney Yeah, I decided to wait and picked up Observer on sale instead.

PS5 version is $40 right now on Amazon. Should I pull the trigger or wait for $30?

I completed a runthrough on PS5 with two crashes (one during the ending, annoying) and one bugged quest line that I couldn't finish. It was very good, nothing amazing. I may do another run once the native PS5 version launches.

Maybe one day. I'm still waiting for Journey to Batuu to go on sale.

I'm worried this will be a mess, but I hope it's amazing.

This game! Not as good as Double Switch, on par with Sewer Shark, better than Night Trap. What a system the Sega CD was. Jurassic Park, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Dracula Unleashed, Mansion of Hidden Souls. What amazing, terrible games.

Surely this will hit PS Plus soon. It's a great tool set with cool creations and a very small user base. It only makes sense.

They were a nice idea, but I've yet to use any of these features and would have preferred a customizable UI and themes.

Yes!!! Lacrimosa of Dana was one of my faves of last gen.

I already own Greedfall, but I'm definitely curious about Maneater and willing to give SotTR another shot. Not a bad month.

16/30. It's fine. IT'S FINE.

@Voltan It's not what I would call bad, but it is very boring. My kid was, I think, 8 or 9 when we saw it, and even he thought it was pretty slow and not very funny. The tie-in game was great though.

@Jimmer-jammer I've had one crash in 30 hours, while driving. I've also had a handful of graphics and audio glitches, but that's been the extent of it. (PS5 here.)

I don't have to go through all of my video settings again and again, thank effing god.

@Constable_What Ah, that makes sense. Yes, the years-long hype train definitely contributed to its downfall.

So as much as I'm enjoying the game on PS5, it really is mind boggling that the game was in development for so long. It's completely reminiscent of something like Fallout 4 or The Outer Worlds. It has some interesting questlines and a somewhat more complicated open world, but that's it. So why 8 years to bang it into its current shape? I'd be curious to know if there was a lot of cut content or features, or if it was drastically changed somehow during development.

Daaaaaamn. Meanwhile I'm about 25 hours in on PS5 and loving it. What an unbelievable mess CDPR created here.

"We made our promise to gamers. Staaaaarrtiiiiing...now."

I imagine we're going to start seeing some heads rolling at CDPR soon.

The policy they tend to stick to is a "one time courtesy" refund. I had mine 3-4 years ago and that was it. It's ridiculous, especially if they're wanting to move into a majority digital future.

@fabisputza00 You'll have to actually call support. Likely to be a pain but that's the only way they'll do it.

I'm a bit miffed that all of the banging it into shape on last gen is likely to push back the true next gen version. Totally selfish maybe, but there you are.

Man, this is wild and I hate that it's happening. After the last update, it's looking great on PS5, and the gameplay is excellent. I haven't had any crashes (though I tend to not play more than an hour or two at a time) and only a few graphic glitches. It's fun and has a great story. They really needed a longer delay, or just to cancel last gen altogether. They're really going to work to claw themselves out if this mess.

I'm a few hours in and, knock on wood, haven't encountered any major issues. HDR implementation sucks, but the game itself is solid, and fun. I feel terrible for the people playing on base PS4. I really hope everything gets ironed out sooner rather than later.

I'm playing on PS5 via BC. It looks...fine. Framerate has been steady thus far, environments look good most of the time. It's absolutely not in full HD, and after spending a while in character customization, looking in a mirror or at the character screen is a blurry funhouse mirror image of the person I put together. Gameplay is good, but I hope CDPR gets some patches out and announces the full next gen versions ASAP.

@Spoonman-2 But what are your opinions on Huey Lewis and the News? And have you seen my new business card?

That's wild that it was released in this state, and at $40. I had my eye on it when it was announced, so it really is a shame. Looking forward to the developers' apology/excuse.

I went through it on PS3, but I'll pick it up again if my son is interested too. He liked the movie and comics. Might be fun for a coop romp.

I'm really looking forward to this, but I can wait. I played the hell out of the original on PC, and even it wasn't as smooth a ride as it could've been, so hopefully extra time will get the sequel to where it needs to be.

A PS5 release of FF7Re would be great, I'm itching to play it again.

Amazon's response to internal theft is bizarre. How about the Amazon driver caught on camera scanning the PS5 box as delivered and then putting it back on his truck? Amazon's initial offer for that family was a five pound credit. They didn't even fire the guy at first. WTF?

I was kind of hoping for a really great or truly bad review to help me finalize my buying decision. This middle-of-the-road stuff isn't helpful, Liam! 😛

There's no way they won't release a new game to coincide with the movie. It's definitely coming.

I'm really going back and forth on Immortals. I just deleted WD Legion from my PS5 today because when it wasn't crashing, it was totally boring. I super regret buying digital on that one, and am wary of future Ubisoft.

This was pretty mediocre at best. There are so many better Square classics that could be getting the remaster treatment instead.

Unsurprisingly, my son--who loves sandbox games--has 4 of the top 5 playtimes.
1. Minecraft - 708 hrs
2. Lego Marvel Superheroes - 344 hrs
3. Witcher 3 - 304 hrs
4. Disney Infinity 3.0 - 269 hrs
5. Littlebigplanet 3 - 180 hrs

To be fair, I contributed to the Infinity and Lego Marvel times. Most of my games are somewhere between 40 and 120 hours.

@NinjaWaddleDee I think the game will be great, but this decision will never not be baffling to me.

I want to hear about the true next gen versions before DLC or anything else.
