It never made any sense that they had to kill her to study her biology.

"reports" in the 2nd graph is doing a lot of heavy lifting there...

I beat original Demon's Souls, Dark Souls I & II but bounced off Bloodborne. I told myself I'd go back to it but still haven't, many years later.

Well, it's Hasbro. I predict they will make a bunch of lesser to terrible games to quickly cash in on the Baldur's Gate reputation and kill the IP for another 20 years.

There are tons of Japanese games I'd love a whole lot more if the grinding aspect of them was eliminated, that's my chief complaint about Japanese games. Culturally, I say bring on the weirdness that comes with keeping it Japanese, I love that part.

So... another new TV in the near future...sigh...

The first 10 years of games trying to utilize this will be painful.

I enjoy Sniper Elite so yes, a definite yes.

I might check this out one day since it has a story. My review of Worlds would have been: "An endless repetitive grind for slightly better weapons and armor, set in a beautiful world with good music."

I hope Sony has better than those example texts, otherwise they're gonna lose

Derivative, like everything out of China. That dialog was just awful, don' t think I could get through a whole game of that . The visuals were well done but the animations were not fluid and awkward looking. Disclaimer: I only made it about 4 minutes into the video.

You couldn't pay me to play that game again.

I was able to Play Code Vein as a single player game last night. I think I had changed something in the settings to enable offline play when there was an outage before. I got the error message about PSN maintenance but was still able to play the game fine.

It's sad that a character like Wonder Woman, massively popular with decades of comics storylines to pull from, can't get a simple action game published. Dodging/deflecting bullets, and beating the crap out of bad guys, pretty simple. You could even relegate the lasso to cut scenes.

I love that Henry can romance Hans Capon in the new game. Considering the first game, it should be hilarious too.

Are there any consequences for laying with more than one? I would expect a game like this to offer it, but with consequences...

I eventually loved the first game, but I am going to say I'm a little disappointed to read that the combat system remains largely in tact as it was. I think the slog that is the beginning of this game will be its downfall on things like gamepass. People will check out the first few hours and bounce.

I don't think they'll do this because they would be cutting off potential revenue from people who have finished the single player campaign and are looking for more GTA. If the method for trying out GTA Online is right there in the same start menu they get crossover.

Why doesn't High on Life get a little write up? Never heard of it. Its page tells me there a robot involved and not much else.

You will get exactly zero original ideas from AI. You will only get a regurgitation of whatever was used to train the algorithm. When the human touch is eliminated you will only get a luke-warm sameness. Good luck having a brand new hit IP with that crap!

not disappointed or outraged (at what, exactly?), just uninterested.

"which seemingly breaking in the face of this unprecedented development"

what?

Die subscription model, die!

Is Reed Richards that buff in the comics now too? Or is it just this game?

I think GTA 6 was only ahead by a bit because some people firmly think it won't release in 2025. I can't say I'm super excited for Yotei. Tsushima was probably the best "map game" I've played but fatigue still set in for me long before I finished it.

@Sequel Your argument might make some sense had I argued that they not cover gacha games at all, but I did not.

@riceNpea Sorry, I think that's a little naive. I mean there are a ton of minor little things to write about on any given day given your example, but the number of posts about the gacha seems... suspect to me. You're free to disagree of course!

Multiplayer game design is hamstrung by it's own nature, the need to accommodate multiple players. I feel like I already know what a multiplayer game will be like before it even releases, and I'm just not ever going to get aboard that train.

Hopefully their faithful reproduction doesn't include the bug that left me as a vampire with no way to fix it.

I will be reading about what interests me the next day and ignoring the rest, life is too short to waste time.

nice art, but hell no.

Aliens could be fun. Kind of annoying to include a 2-player only game.

Super immersive, but I don't see it being mainstream big unless they improved the combat/skill/leveling system.

I held off this one because the first one was loading screen hell that crashed constantly. Is it any better in that respect?

I ended up loving Kingdom Come Deliverance but I still think its appeal is niche. It's not going to save them financially.

My old LG TV doesn't support VRR so I'm thinking it's not worth it. $700 + hard drive + new 65" TV... has me thinking I'll buy the base PS5 after all... sad...

I can't think of a sadder, or more bleak, existence than someone who is a "trophy hunter"

How many of those 8 million copies were sold when it was on sale endlessly for less than $5?

I'm curious about the system that regulates companions and their affection/rejection of Rook. Are any quests gated behind an approval rating for Rook? Besides obvious dialog choices, are there "gifts" or any other mechanic for party members?

The ESRB rating should not contain spoilers about a boss fight, no matter how small or insignificant.

I like Souls games but I don't think anyone should be learning lessons about narrative from them.

This could be avoided by balancing your game, you know, actually finishing it, before release.

The paywall is for the whales, it will be made available later I bet. Trophies are mostly dumb anyway.

I can't keep up with the flood of games, so I'm always playing through something already when a game I'm interested in releases. Even a game I am massively excited for like GTA VI (trying to keep those expectations tempered however), I will probably buy a few months after release.

I can't even remember if I've played 4 or 5, definitely checked out 6. Which one was the one that was intended for ps3 but also retooled for ps2? I remember there being long sections with nothing in it because the ps2 couldn't handle the content and I said it would be the last time I bought a nextgen game retooled for previousGen.

edit: Ah, no, the one I'm thinking of is the PS2 version of Underworld.

just sad, really really sad

Considering Atlus's poor track record in portraying gay people (and how they treat women too), I'm curious if this game follows in the same tradition. Are there any gay characters? Are they portrayed as creepy predators again? Or did they simply erase them from the world? I'm only gonna buy this game if they have corrected that.
