Re: Iconic Rhythm Game Beat Saber Will Break Bricks on PSVR2

Digit2021

Hope they release a Complete Edition with all current DLC that’s been released. Otherwise it needs to be cheap since there is so much DLC now. Also at least it might be easier, there were times I played the PSVR version and occasionally didn’t pickup me swinging one of the light controllers

Re: Amazon Prime Video Greenlights God of War TV Series

@FatalBubbles
Yep....and I know and understand its way too much to ask for a direct book to screen version. Although it would be fantastic, characters would have so much more depth and emotions with the audience, although there would be some episodes slow but with deep storytelling. Would have been too slow for some, especially of Perrin and Egwene trekking for miles with nothing but camping and having Perrin learn the way of the Wolf with Elyas whom they meet. Books are always better in this regard. Hope they learnt this for the 2nd season.
On topic, very worried about God of War TV series - it would have to be super expensive to make all the CGI look decent.

The show wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I was hoping the 1st season would be based solely on the 1st book. Instead they added their own stuff in and incorporated some elements of the 2nd book in. Simple things omitted like Rand falling off the wall trying to see the False Dragon and landing in the Palace garden and getting to meet the Queen. The rescue of Perrin and Egwene from the Whitecloaks. The act of being Wisdom was never jumping into deadly rapids. Instead they could of had the freaky scene of Rand first seeing the cloaked horserider following him from the start of the book. Where was the area where Perrin was starting to learn about the Wolves. Things that should not have been omitted. But that's my personal opinion. And don't get me started about Perrin suddenly being married, that was just the show trying to make a scene of having his wife get killed which never existed in the 1st place.
They could have made it where each season is followed from each book solely. Apologise if there are spoilers for anyone that have not read WOT, but it's hard to explain the show without references.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing The Witcher 3's PS5 Upgrade?

Digit2021

I absolutely love the look of the Ray Tracing mode, however on playing it feels like it's seriously struggling on the PS5. I am experiencing controller lag and stuttering.
Also for anyone that has not played this yet - Death March is the best way to play it, it makes you actually require the use of food and healing, and think about your foes and strategize before you enter blindly into combat.

Re: Horizon Forbidden West DLC Takes Aloy to the Burning Shores Only on PS5

Digit2021

Looking forward to it but wonder how much more advanced it is in that it cannot run on PS4? Although stocks are now more readily available, with the economy collapse and the price of the PS5, I'm sure there are many out there that WANT the console but due to the cost of it they just can't. It's definitely not a NEED thing at the moment since there are plenty of other games out there for PS4.
And yes I have a PS5 but I had to do some dirty extra work to get the money for it, the economy sux at the moment

Re: Train Sim World 3 Books a Trip to Toy Town in Unexpected Xmas Expansion on PS5, PS4

Digit2021

Should have been free. Mainly due to the fact that the game is still bugged, they keep promising an addon manager for PS5 TSW3 but yet to deliver. Some companies would have released something like this as an apology for a promised fix. All DTG seem to do is keep releasing DLC without fixing the game so you can actually play the DLC. This is another DLC that is useless if you own all other DLC, unless you uninstall other DLC.

As to this requiring them to create new assets etc, as an example Insomniac kept releasing new Spiderman costumes, Little Big Planet are still releasing FREE costumes. These still require artist and developers to sit behind a computer and do new assets/textures and use company resources at no charge to the consumer. Or are DTG employees better/more superior than these other companies employees?

Re: PS Plus Not Required for Online Multiplayer on PS5, PS4 This Weekend

Digit2021

@KidBoruto
My PS Plus expires next year in June, and considering not renewing due to the cost. I don't play MP, have too many games to worry about PS Plus free games (I think I have only played and finished 1x PS Plus game since my subscription due to family and time constraints). So really I am paying a premium for just cloud saves, which is only handy if the PS5 blows up.

Re: US Government's FTC Will Attempt to Block Microsoft's Activision Buyout

Digit2021

If the buyout happens, then Sony should really stop releasing PC ports and make games such as MLB The Show, Callisto, Bungie Destiny future releases only for Playstation again. Sony is trying to evolve the industry into multiplatform where every gamer regardless of platform can enjoy their games. Microsoft on the other hand are the gaming bullies whom don't want to share their projects to the masses.
Corporate ethics of the gaming industry have become toxic. If a Microsoft vehicle crashed, a Sony exec would stop and help them out of the burning vehicle. However if a Sony vehicle crashed, a Microsoft exec would drive away saying sux to be you.

Re: The Witcher 3 Next-Gen Update Will Finally Be Shown Tomorrow

Digit2021

@Bamila
Really? I cannot imagine an actual game studio taking 2 years to do minor things such as resolution, 60fps and adding some cosmetic mods that were already done by a modder prior (actually hoping). If this is the case modders do better things in better timeframes than paid developers.

Re: The Witcher 3 PS5 Has 'Dozens' of Improvements, Integrated Mods, and New Netflix Show Content

Digit2021

It has taken a long time so I imagine the game has had a complete overhaul nearly. Totally different lighting (similar to what was shown originally at E3?), 4k textures, better hair, facial, better water. Just throwing user mods in and testing doesn't take this long normally. A far as RT is concerned I am always sceptical when game companies say the game has RT, since there are different types of amount of RT. Only shadows or also RT lighting? I didn't really see much difference on PS5 with RT enabled on Cyberpunk unless I paused the game and checked.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy God of War Ragnarok?

Digit2021

@RobN
Understand, not every Playstation user comes to Push Square. Although now the question is "Why don't they?"
The biggest issue with not everyone having a PS5 is I just had a look at EBGames in Australia and it is selling for $900. In this economy and with a recession about to hit it's a lot of money. And then there is PSVR2 coming which will probably be close to $900 Australian. Games are $125 Australian. Console gaming in Australia is expensive. Sorry I have to relate to Australia costs so not certain if these details about costs hold up in other countries.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy God of War Ragnarok?

Digit2021

Looking at the voting results it looks like people playing on PS5 is way ahead of PS4. Game companies need to scrap cross gen for all games in 2023 and make impressive PS5 versions only. It looks like PS4 is dying out according to those vote results

Re: PS5 Players Don't Want to See 60fps Die Out

Digit2021

There's an option missing that should be mandatory on ALL these PS5 games. VRR support, so 30fps is in fact 40fps. 40fps despite being less than 60 provides a smoother overall experience but with the graphics at quality at 40fps. Developers are just lazy these days.

Re: Rumour: God of War Ragnarok Will Have 60fps, 30fps Options on PS5

Digit2021

@AverageGamer
True, which means it's probably better for all if I just wait until they drop that patch before purchasing. Horizon and Ratchet did a great job implementing it, unfortunately I finished both games without VRR that suits my setup. I prefer quailty mode over 60fps. I might even be lucky in that by the time they do release the VRR update it will actually be added to PS Plus Extra Tier

Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Now Live in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand

Digit2021

For me it’s not worth the extra cost. I only now play PS5 games so I checked and out of all 355 games there are only 37x PS5 games on the extra plan. And out of those 37x I already own 14x of them I already own. It might suit other people though. Just worried that the standard free monthly PS5 games will get worse now.

Re: Sony Recruits Japanese Retailers for PS5 Scalping Prevention Scheme

Digit2021

Why not the retailer when they sell it you ask for your ID, and they enter it in and register the serial number to you. It then activates the console to be used, if a scalper sells one, the unit cannot be used on the PS network since that serial number is not registered as active. If you want to sell it, then it has to be deregistered. Almost like the hardware serial/mac address is being leased to you.

Re: Elden Ring Easy Mode Isn't Happening on PS5, PS4

Digit2021

For me it's just a simple do not buy, but not fussed since there are many other great games out there (currently playing Horizon Forbidden West). For me life is hardcore enough, I don't need to finish a hard day of work and go home to be punished by a videogame as well, I now prefer to just sit back and have casual fun.
I got harassed on another forum only because I said I won't play this game although it looks good simply because I am terrible at hardcore games. Called a sook etc.
But everyone has preferences and these days with the internet there is way too much of judging others despite everyone having different acquired tastes. Gaming forums are the worst these days, yet everyone on them is a gamer. Us gamers need to band together more regardless of our gaming tastes, and only pick on the non gamers

Re: Gran Turismo 7 (PS5) - The Real Driving Simulator Makes Its Grand Return

Digit2021

Tempted but worried that they haven't actually fixed 1x big issue, previous entry I found I was always starting way at the back and with only 3 laps you have to win, this made it feel less realistic because I was constantly banging other cars out of my way in order to progress. 3x laps is too short to do it realistically, should at least let us choose how many laps we want in single player. (many racing games are like this though unfortunately)

Re: Sony Pictures Declares Uncharted a 'New Hit Movie Franchise'

Digit2021

Could be also due to many getting that free ticket but ended up paying for the other half to come with them to see it too. Using that free ticket this weekend and paying for wife to see it as well, so that ticket contributes to the figures. If this is why, then it's smart marketing by providing 1x free ticket, knowing majority want to go to the movies with someone.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Cyberpunk 2077 on PS5?

Digit2021

Did try it again but going to delve into new Horizon game. Turned Cyberpunk off again as soon as I saw some NPC's walk and disappear into the walls. Plus NPC's on the street are walking straight through me. This is definitely not a AAA game by any standards.

Re: Skyrim Anniversary Edition Detailed, Special Edition Owners Get Four Creation Club DLCs for Free

Digit2021

So let me get this right. A modder puts his/her time and effort into creating content for a game, then Bethesda snatch it up and charge for it. Now they are throwing them into the game and wanting to charge for an Anniversary edition that includes creations that were only made by fans? Or am I missing something here? Also why support Bethesda/Microsoft since they a dissing Sony in the future?

Re: Best PS5 SSD: Compatible M.2 SSD Storage Expansion for PS5

Digit2021

All excited about the new update, went online to find a SSD that is on the list. Turned away quick due to the price gauging. In Australia 2TB is $699, way overpriced. Looks like import might be the better way to go on this, just not certain if the USA version of a SSD would work with the Asia Pacific PS5.
