Re: Older Live Service Titles Take Up Over 60% of Overall Playtime, Report Says

@UltimateOtaku91 I wish this were completely true, but in my own family and friend group that game, I am the only one who plays new releases or mostly single player. And I fear that sentiment is more widespread than we think. My sibling plays exclusively Fornite and my friends rotate between Fortnite, Rocket League, and now Helldivers 2. They will play new Sony 1st party releases, and the occasional Ubisoft game.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Rise of the Ronin?

ErrantRob

It’s funny to see the difference between media and Redditors. It seems like there’s a much larger chunk of the community enjoying it than would appear. I still trust Fightin Cowboy for his review, which aligns to a degree with Push Square.

I’ll be getting it on sale as I love Team Ninja and will have my own fun with it at a lower price.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dragon's Dogma 2?

@Nepp67 in the same boat. Played maybe 3-4 hours of the first one and was frustrated by some of it. Maybe a time and place thing. This looks more like I’d get immersed in it, and I’ve also found sometimes a sequel speaks to me in a way the first one didn’t (BOTW vs Tears of the Kingdom).

Re: Feb 2024 USA Sales: Helldivers 2 Kills It as 2024's Best-Selling Game So Far

@nessisonett I agree, I just worry Sony will read it as 8 years of dev time and rebooting it at some point only helped the cause and claim we should take our time with games! I also wonder if they cancelled something like Factions prematurely, and if it would have been different had HD2 released before cancelling the project. Might have seen it as a chance to release $40 factions and watch people devour it (I would play it at that price as I loved the first go round).

Re: Helldivers 2 Paranoia Peaks, Players Convinced The Illuminate Already Walk Among Us

@Bagwag82 I think the easiest solution to this is to just look away. If I see an article on here not for me, I do not click on it, but rather find those that I find worth reading. Hence, I read HellDivers 2 to support the PushSquare team (and because it interests me), but completely skip a review for something like Alone in the Dark (because it does not interest me). Don't forget, they've a business to run, and have to decide on what receives clicks and what does not. Enough of the community here plays these two games to make it worth writing about.

HellDivers 2 still. Can’t get enough of it.

Banishers Ghosts of New Edén is the other. It’s very enjoyable and I want to wrap it up before I dive into Rebirth.

I also made progress in Grime yesterday as it’s another game from the sub service. I’ve been trying to get my money’s worth in 2024. So far I’ve finished 4 games on the service. Smaller titles but finished none the less.

@Kidfunkadelic83 I don’t have a lot of experience with tower based defense games because they don’t appeal to me. I would say that there is some defensive work with a certain spot on the map but for me I feel like the majority of it was me fighting to keep my mechs alive and I barely thought about defending anything.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League?

ErrantRob

@Pixipantalon if I was into and really enjoyed Gotham Knights, what are my odds here? Your point about The Division is appealing to me, as I still think about going back to that from time to time. I’m tempted to ignore the reviews and people as Wanted Dead was one of my favorite games last year that was highly looked down on by reviews and ignored by most.

@Loamy Gungrave is awesome for short bursts between other games. I’ll do a level or two, wear out my fingers on the triggers and come back later after playing something else. Overall I love that I don’t have to worry about hidden paths, collectibles, or missing side quests. Just shoot and kill lol

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 514

ErrantRob

I’m at a crossroads with games. I’ve played several and nothing seems to stick for very long.

I’ve been playing:
GunGrave Gore
Crisis Core Reunion
Forgive me Father
BG3

But I’m actually really interested in
Grime
Dark Light
trinity Fusion
GranBlue Fantasy Relink

So I’m all over the place. Maybe I’ll just pick up Suicide Squad instead lol.
