Probably is a flop, games only last 20-30 hours, expects it to sell for £70/$80 , not a snowballs chance in hell. I'd probably only buy for a 50-60 game minimum. The few exceptions probably the trails series, as i buy the limited edition gor about 90 but that's one a year. Or like assassin creed games as the last few have been lengthy 100 hours +, the yakuza games and persona games- P5 royal took over 200 hours to platinum it . I've hardly bought any games in the last 6 months as games have been focused on graphics only lasting sbout 20 hours. Certainly not worth that pricetag
Ive not played much , coming towards end of chapter one. Takes time to learn dodging timing or parry. Would have preferred a more traditional rpg with the mechanic as reminds me of a souls games, mebe I'll get used to it lol
Agree 100% especially after the way we got treated by bungie, spending 60-90 quid a year for close to 7 years and then bungie giving the full expansions away for free and then vaulting like 80% of the content. Hard pass, never again . Fool me once , shame on me
Yeah i get that, I played persona 5 and it took easily 100 hours but games like spiderman on the ps5 could be mostly completed in about 20-25 hours., for 70 quid unless it had a season pass etc. Only games I'd pay thst price was thr limited edition of the trails games
Yeah wouldnt pay unless games have a standard length of 50-60 hours. As most games this gen and last have only been 15-20 hours. Get most games from the game collection for 50-55. I'd inly pay 75-80 if it included a season pass/expansion. Plus a lot of games are a mess when launched and need months of patches
@Olmaz yasuke is a Japanese character. Might not be native. Still Japanese but also the point adewale was a black assassin and no one complained, it's only complaining cos it's cool , the hate clearly falls into bigotry and entitled Z gen , there's other games like nioh that features a non Asian samurai. Amongst others. Can always go snd play ghost of tsushima
Looking forward to this, seen a lot of haters coming out the woodwork , moaning its not historical accurate but assassin creed never has been, it's been influenced by history but always had its own spin on things. Also there's been plenty of African Americans in previous games like Adewale in black flag, Achilles devonport in ac3 and in rogue etc
Already paid for new assassins creed and suikoden 1&2 remaster as I missed out on suikoden growing up as I was a teenager when it first came out. Probably get atelier yumia. Mebe pick up atomfall in april along with obscure 33
Played every game that's come out in the uk/eu since 2005. Hoping , Yagami gets a new gane soon. Got the gane delivered on Thursday but busy with trails through daybreak II
Imo, there should be a tier system for game prices, lot of indie games being priced at 69.99 or similer shouldn't be a thing. Especially indie games. I waited until ghosts of new eden was on sale, got it for 25. Wouldn't pay mare than 35 quid for a 20 hour or less game
I think people that voted saying 5 days isn't good enough, need to have a wod with themselves 😅, didn't really bother me as its only a day. I spend the day starting to build a new pc and rest of it gaming on my pc , so gave my ps5 a rest
The gap between pc and console is getting smaller. , it would be good for cross platform games like ff14 as takes ages to type things in the game chat especially if playing in a party , some of them playing on pc
Not really into racing games , good for those that are . Competition is always a good thing, especially for games like the crew. Only game i enjoyed was the burnout games
It's really good, playing on ps5, only think is the mini skirmish could be better. Also could be more like the samurai warriors sanada game. Only played about 13 hours l Would love a more story driven game. Leveling system is interesting, always thought a skill tree would be good. Hopefully the open world is expanded on not played dynasty warriors since number 7 but it's a lot closer to the romance of the three kingdoms novel. I hope it goes all the way to the end , to the Jin dynasty
Play dynasty warriors from 2 to 7, got bored as the a lot of characters had the same moves etc, mostly clones of each other and didn't even use the fight weapons . Heard the new one is a lot better, ordered it from Amazon buy not getting delivered til next week
Honestly it hard to answer as I'm in the process of saying for a next gen pc ddr5 . Console is way easier to manage but the gap between pc and console is getting a lot smaller. I probably will buy a ps6 but not sure if I'd buy any more after ps6. Considering I've had a playstation since 1995 . I can't say for sure but I can get a lot of retro games on pc I can't get on ps5 unless ps6 offers true backwards compatibility but I don't see it happening
@ButterySmooth30FPS it's possible, it might not come west, to not alienate all those who already bought it. Remember the zodiac edition of ff12 never came west, when it first got released, took a decade to come over here
@Dalamar ahh my bad, ok the founder then. It's just a strange thing to do. Unless they are struggling , with the evinony as uve been playing there gsmes since the 90s with legend of heros: dragon slayer and played practically all the ys games
Bit of a gut punch, as I've just recently finished it, wonder if there's a change of leadership, with the president of falcom, passing away recently, that caused this shift. To be fair the story is a bit bland compared to previous games
Without being nasty, I'm not a fan of female characters games, rather the choice like mass effect etc. Plus I've not been a fan of naughty dog since they canned Jake and daxter and sky racoon games and not into action hotter games like thr last of us, especially killing off an established character for diversity and inclusion or ehstever the reasoning behind it. Druickman storytelling pales in comparison to amy henning imo
