Re: Review: Punch Line (PS4)

@Rob_230 I would say this is fairly safe for playing out in public

  • although maybe you should check out a trailer first just to check how comfortable you think you'd feel with the occasional panty shots!

Re: Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Delayed to November

@naruball if I waited until I had time to play it then I'd never get round to buying it!

Buying a game I've been looking forward to encourages me to try to ensure I actually make time for it. This delay gives me a little bit more time to try to find a bit of free time.

Not sure that makes much sense, but it does in my head!

I'm actually happy that this has been delayed as I really don't have time to play it. Hopefully my schedule will free up a little in November so that I have time to play at least a couple of the awesome games that are coming out then!

Re: Review: Rainbow Skies (PS4)

@MonkeyDLuffy19 if you want to finish the game 100% (not just the Platinum but all of the optional content as well) then I'd estimate that it's gonna take quite a while, maybe 100 hours or so. If you just want to finish the story and a bit of the side quest stuff then maybe around 30-50 hours depending on how good you are at these kinds of games and how much side quest stuff you feel like doing.

If you play on the lowest battle rank setting and regularly do side quests then you should find it relatively straight forward and not too tough

@Nightcrawler71 it's £21.99 (and there's a 10% discount if you have PS+). There are physical versions being sold through Play-Asia. If you want to take advantage of the cross-buy function then please note that that's only available with digital copies! Hope that helps!

@Spectra Not really, they shout out random battle cries occasionally but those aren't subtitled and (as far as I can tell) they aren't saying anything related to the story. So you can just focus on the combat and not have to read stuff It might be worth you giving the demo a try

@Bonbonetti I would say that the main story will take you around 40ish hours (will take longer if you want to do all the side quests)

@SoulsBourne128 I haven't played Seven Deadly Sins so unfortunately can't do a comparison

@Spectra It might be a bit tough to get used to if you've only watched the anime with an English dub but I think that the Japanese voice actors are really good! I especially love Sucy's VA

@geckcellent sorry to hear you weren't so keen on my review. I try not to give in-depth analysis on character routes as I don't want to give out spoilers. Also it would end up being a pretty long review if I commented on every single character route! I take your points on board though

@Jaz007 I do think this seems to be more of a male issue. While I haven’t played If My Heart Had Wings I don’t think I’d have any issues playing a romance game from a male perspective. I enjoy reading books, many of which have male protagonists (and so have romance/sex scenes from a man’s perspective). I enjoy it if it’s well written, regardless of whose point of view it’s from.

Maybe, as @RogerRoger says, this is due to women being more empathetic and so being more able (or willing) to see things from viewpoints that are not the same as their own. Although I would argue that maybe this is also partially due to women being more used to experiencing things from a man’s point of view. Many popular games & movies have male protagonists (or female protagonists that could easily be swapped for men). As we’ve grown up with these games & movies, playing or watching something from a male perspective (including romance/sex) is not something we’d instantly think of as being exclusively for men and we probably even consider many of these things to be fairly gender neutral.

I guess my point is that I feel like marketing these kinds of games as “made for women” is doing a disservice both to men and the games themselves.

I’ve very much enjoyed this discussion, it’s been fun

@RogerRoger @Jaz007 I always find it a little amusing when men feel slightly awkward about playing otome games. I don't feel awkward playing videogames or watching movies from a male characters perspective, so I feel like guys should be able to enjoy games from a female characters perspective as well! I do get that romance isn't to everyone's tastes though

Re: Review: Secret of Mana (PS4)

@ReanSchwarzer7 6/10 is above average and means "not bad" according to Push Square's scoring policy. I played it on PS4, have plenty of space on my HD and it still crashed a lot
