"You might have to manually go looking for it, though. Once you're on the page for Octopath Traveler II, click the little '...' icon and there should be an option to view the demo instead of the full game pre-order. From there, just hit the download button." Thank you for this heads-up! I wouldn't have found the demo without it! Don't know why Sony's making it so hard to find demos.
I've never played an MMO or any live service game. Been Single Player all the way for over 25 years now!!! Guess I should change my handle to Solitary Jaguar!!!
The main reason I didn't purchase Midnight Suns is because of the cards. Not my favorite gameplay style. Also, I'm much more a DC fan than Marvel (that's just me - not saying I'm right/better). Capes, however, looks right up my alley - gameplay looks excellent & since they're all new characters, I've got no bias!
If/when my PS5 dies, I'd consider purchasing the detachable disc model. Initially, I didn't think I would, but then I reconsidered - my original PS1 & PS4 never died, but my first PS2 & PS3 did: both had the disc drives die. So that got me thinking - be cheaper to replace just the disc drive than have to buy a whole new console.
He's worked DECADES to finally achieve these well-deserved accolades, the award was given to him by Al Pacino, who he clearly admires, & people are griping he enjoyed the moment for less than 8 lousy minutes?! SMH.
Wishing everyone a fantastic day & wonderful New Year!! â¤ī¸ Btw, I like Brussel Sprouts (not as much as peas or green bean casserole, but I do like 'em!)!!
I do like that they always give the option to write in your own choices. It's what I do for most of the categories. I realize my picks stand little to no chance of winning, but they're my favorites of the year, & it (hopefully) lets Sony know that some of us enjoy the less beaten path!
đ My personal '22 awards: Best RPG from a small developer: Edge of Eternity 1st RPG I've played in ages that didn't have one bug in the entire play through: Soul Hackers 2 Deepest/most involved RPG, will be playing for months: Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
@Ratmonger9 Instead of kingdom building, it's crusade management this time. But, just like Pathfinder, you can set those to "auto" & not be bothered with them. It's what I do!
Not my type of game. Recently picked up (& will probably be playing right through the winter) Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. Big fan of Kingmaker & so far, this looks to be just as good!!
Couple of games not on the list - I really enjoyed Hard West. Would give it 8.5 ricochet bullets! The one game I really love that didn't make the list (âšī¸) was Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Eagerly awaiting next week's release of Wrath of the Righteous on PS!!
Thanks to the yapping UI, I turned off trophy notifications (it was talking over the game!). I have since discovered (thanks, YouTube) how to turn it off, but also noticed I haven't missed having the pop-ups for the trophies!! I have damn-near everything turned off - it's almost like the PSX/PS2 eras, & I'm fine with that!! đ¸
