I barely buy games full price now I won't be buying any games day one if they go over 80 quid I'd happily wait for a discount I have patience! And it's up to the studios to get value for money double A developers can make a great looking game that plays well without spending hundreds upon hundreds of millions on it. Us gamers don't need to be responsible for there failures some of us might be mindless cash cows for these companies and will pay whatever they want but I'd like to think that's in the minority!
@UltimateOtaku91 I'm not against people playing on last gen getting a big discount on current gen machines.
I agree it's not a great practice but this particular offer I think is very good for people on last gen I wouldn't want to take that away from them just for the sake of it.
@Titntin It's not the same as the way sony do it but we have been down that road before obviously there is a difference because of all these stories constantly.
If it's going to be like fifa street that would be good but I don't see it to be honest! We need something pro evolution to come back but properly eafc is the same game every year basically.
@Vertere I totally agree with you but it's not sustainable for so many live service games to be made and fail a month or two down the line.
Some games you can see will fail before they are even released people call it straight away and are mostly right.
Just seems a waste of money, time and effort for so many to keep popping up!
It's just a bit boring the constant groundhog day news around gaming in my opinion company sacks employees, live service game fails, AI use in gaming the outrage!
Its becoming a bit old now.
Same song different dance.
@Vertere I just think for the time being that we really don't need more live service games the big ones out are established with big user bases or at least a big enough user base to keep it going similar to helldivers 2 the numbers aren't exceptional but good enough to keep the game alive.
It's just too hard to create something new in the live service genre that will stick nowadays it's failure after failure millions upon millions wasted for nothing.
It's too hard to crack nowadays I'm not against live service games I love helldivers 2 and liked fbc firebreak but it's impossible it seems for new ones to last and succeed!
There's no real hunger for more live service games in the gaming community.
The companies are just trying to create a game that requires less effort to make and sustain and make more money from it it's not us gamers dying for more live service games.
Unfortunately this is the same in most fields of work not just gaming although working in the gaming industry is very volatile as job security is terrible!
The unfortunate truth is in most jobs your just a number I've had that experience myself working somewhere the boss you actually work with loves you go the extra mile take on more responsibility off your own back but the guys who hire and fire don't care the extra effort is for nothing you are a number on a spreadsheet nothing more it's very sad but extremely common in the real world thats just a fact!
We don't need so many live service games or multiplayer games across the board can't wait till the companies stop chasing the live service dragon it's just failure after failure
@Flaming_Kaiser Time will tell on that I'm sure as it evolves there will be new privacy and copyright laws introduced to tackle things like that right now it's kinda the wild west they are doing what they can get away with. Personally I think dlss 5 looks amazing for gaming when used with the developers input and approval it's just another tool for them to use in my opinion.
@NieR_Dark Only if they decide to keep the prices of consoles going up this gen have been a joke for the consoles price not really going down years after release ina meaningful way like every gen before. I know there's a ram shortage but I don't agree with it.
@get2sammyb Haha sorry didn't see that part but yeah you are right kids do game a lot different to us 80s &90s kids did back when we where younger plus with things like TikTok and Instagram so popular with kids nowadays I'd say a decent amount would be lost to things like that. There loss I'd say!
The words relatively old could be used someone in there someone in there thirty's isn't an old person but a relatively old gamer also you look about on your thirty's @get2sammyb sorry if your not haha!
I'm turning 40 this year so if someone in there thirty's is considered old nowadays I'm not going to be happy haha!
@naruball Don't know about breaking bad in fairness cooking meth probably wouldn't be much fun as a game the only way it would work is if walt could kill his pokemon wife and horse like son I hate those guys!
How crazy after being with my misses for over ten years and two kids and I finally got her to start watching breaking bad recently and she's addicted haha
To be honest a breaking bad video game vr game sounds bad and that ship has sailed anyways the series is over an awfully long time now!
@KoopaTheGamer Yeah it is I totally agree but most of that could be said about tv or the telephone with scamming people and misinformation. Sure the president of America says straight up lies as facts so we are very much in to era of misinformation and scamming. Like with most powerful tools or inventions there are ways it could be used badly or ina harmful way but the genie is out of the bottle now AI is here to stay unless a solar flare wipes out everything electronic. If it is harnessed for good though especially in medical research it benefits are near endless.
@wildcat_kickz The uses of AI go far beyond the slop people moan about it can be and will be used for good aswell not just bad art or stealing jobs.
Some people think anything AI is just bad and wrong end of.
@Metonymy It's just another tool for humans like any other.
I said somewhere before there's no cruise ships with a hundred guys shoveling coal like on the titanic nowadays because that job became obsolete but that doesn't make a ships engine evil or wrong for making that job obsolete it's just progress humans have the choice how to use it!
@leisureal88 No doubt about that but all the pitchforks out for anything remotely AI is really silly in my opinion it's here to stay and it's going to get worse if anyone sees it as a bad thing.
I'm so sick of AI stories I'll be honest everyone just take it out on the AI robot that will look after you when you're very old live your life now before AI is unavoidable!
If you don't like AI I promise you this is going to get a lot worse in years to come!
@UltimateOtaku91 Deals for you is the only thing you could call dynamically priced they are normally cheap crap games with a a few quid off basically useless the normal sales is where it's at for actual deals so yeah technically there is a single dynamically priced sale the odd time. I just don't think any company should be dynamically pricing stuff unless it's for the customers benefit! It's bad on either console be obvious there must be more of it on playstation considering the amount of these stories about it!
@UltimateOtaku91 It's about a week late dude and like I've said before "offers"are different because everyone has sales also they are time limited rather than Everything all the time dynamically priced anyway surely you see the massive difference in that my friend?
Do you enjoy dynamic pricing do you benefit from it never mad what I think do you enjoy it on playstation??
I haven't played much of the series just re3 remake re4 and 5 and I'm currently playing through re4 remake and it's amazing that got my vote I'm going to playthrough all the others at some point after I finish re4 remake I have re2 remake and re village and biohazard to pick from to play next! Amazing series I'm glad it's still going strong now!
When I'm not watching to football over the weekend I'll be on space marines 2 such a great game and really looks amazing aswell I'll play a bit of resident evil 4 and eafc 25 aswell happy weekend guys!
Who honestly cares to be fair it's just a handful of games granted good games but good God you would swear it's the location of the ark of the covenant that Sony is keeping from people not a couple games!
Time to move on from this narrative I think there must be something more interesting going on than this!
So now pssr2 is out anything that doesn't use it is fuzzy??
But like a month ago it wouldn't be fuzzy at all haha just because the ps5 pro is good doesn't mean that the base ps5 is bad now all of a sudden.
That's Donald Trump type thinking that the best way to make out something is good is by making out like anything but that is useless!
Also news flash just because something isn't upscaled 4k doesn't mean it's fuzzy!
I can't take that seriously I mean the game is rendered at about 1440p upscaled to 4k on quality that's not fuzzy just people being fussy!
It's the girl out of re4 for sure she was begging for it haha.
I can't remember her name which is crazy considering I'm playing through the game currently!
ASHLEY!!
