@Foxhound Majority of the sales will be digital. UK sales while being good but 40% down from GoT says a lot especially when its meant to be selling faster then GoT.
If the PS6 still uses discs i expect it will be an optional add on that most won't buy.
@Coffeeglitch Sony are releasing more or less the same amount of games as last gen. You were around for the PS4 gen right? 1-3 games per year was about it. This false narrative that Sony were putting out endless games last gen is really weird, Sony have largely treated this gen like they did last gen.
@Yozora146_ Its not good but so far i haven't felt like i needed it, of course the grind could become worse later on but right now its fine enough for me.
@Yozora146_ My issue is the protag actually does speak its just there's no voice. Its not like Link or a Pokemon protag where they remain silent and say nothing the protag does interact and speak you just don't hear it while everyone else has a voice including the Digimon themselves.
30fps and dated PS2 level map design aside (map is not seamless at all) its been great so far and its clear this has been giving more care and budget then other DM games. Still very early in though but really enjoying it
The fact people championed the deal including the sister site of PQ still makes me laugh. I will never understand the need to support Corps swallowing up smaller ones.
Just IGN being IGN and cherry picking. Sure TLoU and the Norse God of War games share ideas but not once did i feel like like Ragnarok was TLoUP2 or feel like i was playing God of War 2018 when playing Spidey or Ghost.
@IcarusOOT "Why can't my fire type Pokemon beat the water gym? The game is stonewalling me and forcing me to use certain PM to beat it"
Yeah these types of games usually force you into tackling certain problems a certain way. Its why in Pokemon when you fight the Elite Four you make sure bring a team that covers all bases and not a team of only 1 type. The Digimon Stories games have that same design.
@MrGawain The Switch 2 is breaking records and the PS5 has been the most profitable console gen for Sony. Sony and Nintendo are not lost at all. Finally nothing to play? In 2 days Yotei comes out and Death Stranding 2 released a few months back.
@B_Lindz So more or less the same as last gen then? 2-3 games per year was the later years of the PS4. 2015 and 2016 saw one big 1st party game each and early days at best had the weakest Infamous game and Knack. People really act like last gen had 5+ games per year from Sony.
@REALAIS I think the tag was meant to be there at launch but an error on the shop stopped it appearing. As i said the only improvement is a higher res, its noticeable but there's no RT or anything like that.
@HaveTheSauce The game can be tedious to move around in at times because there's zero fast travel so if you need to start a mission that is at the other side of the map it can be annoying having to actually travel especially when a ton of the map isn't parkour friendly.
I would rather remasters of the Third Age and Return of the King then anything new as i don't trust them.
God i hate how tainted Tolkien's work has become. TLOTR Trilogy is a masterpiece and some good games spawned around then but everything after has ranged from mid (The Hobbit) to downright awful (Rings of Power).
@Shinnok789 GoY releases in less then a week and we got Death Stranding 2 a few months back. Astro Bot dominated the awards last year and Helldivers 2 is one of the best live service games this Gen.
@Vaako007 Every Bond has been different to the last one and every Bond apes what's current in the their time. There is no classic Bond and only one Bond has ever bothered to stay true to the books and even then it took many liberties.
@somnambulance Honestly i felt DS2 was a bit of a letdown, the big twist was super obvious and i really don't like how he handled the fate of a certain character. I also wasn't a fan of how he we kept getting all those new characters who were barely explored beyond one flashback with no payoff. From a gameplay view i just found it super easy and its ridicules how the truck or trike can you more or less anywhere. Its a great game don't me wrong but if DS1 is a 10 this is more an 8 for me through i will say the music and boss battles and were better in DS2 with the final fight being one of the highlights of the year.

Re: PS6 May Go Uncontested as Rumours of Next-Gen Xbox Cancellation Force Microsoft to Comment
@Dogbreath You understand the PS6 has more or less been designed and funded for already right? The consoles specs were already set in stone years ago.
Also thanks for explaining why you aren't leading Sony as its clear you don't know as much as you think.
Re: That New Digimon Game's Turning Out to Be a Huge Hit
@Brydontk Hope not as the World games aren't very good in my opinion.
Re: That New Digimon Game's Turning Out to Be a Huge Hit
Great to see it doing well. Bodes well for the series future video games wise.

@Dogbreath You seem to know a lot about the PS6 care to share your source?

Have some issues with the open world itself but the 12 hours i've played so far have been excellent.

Re: That New Digimon Game's Looking Like a Big Hit
@N1ghtW1ng There is a World game on PS4. Its easily the best World game out there what granted is not a high bar but still praise none the same.

Re: Stellar Blade Ending Extended in New Epilogue Scenes
@johncalmc I'm pretty sure you need to do around 3-4 NG+ runs to unlock everything.
Re: Sony Is a 'Terrible Company' That's 'Blowing It in the Games Business', Says Michael Pachter

No 1 rule is just go with the opposite of what this moron says.
Re: Stellar Blade Ending Extended in New Epilogue Scenes
@johncalmc To be fair each new NG+ run adds more costumes to unlock so there's loads of reasons to replay.
