Re: Study Claims Sony's PS5 Games Are Leaving Big PC Sales on the Table

@KeanuReaves You say if the game is good, then people will buy it even if it is late, and that is the issue. The games sell a lot on PlayStation at launch by PS fans that will buy the slop, and by the time it comes to PC, you already have retrospective videos on YouTube showcasing that the slop Sony puts out are not actually good games. PC players end up not buying games that simply are not good.

Re: 'One of the Worst Decisions Ever Made': God of War Creator Tears 'Total Crap' 2D Title Apart

I played the game for 40 minutes to an hour. So far the gameplay was fun, but everything else was just ok to bad. I think the art is ok, I don’t think it’s bad, but as far as pixel art goes, it is just uninteresting to look at. The voice acting and writing were bad. It annoys me that the voices, ways of speaking, and dialogue sound so modern in a game that takes place in Ancient Greece. I’ll probably keep playing it because I’m interested in the gameplay and what abilities and bosses there are in the game, but I understand why there would be criticism for this game and the series’s direction.

Re: Loads of PlayStation Concert Dates Cancelled Amid Rumours of Low Ticket Sales

@FX102A people are coping about the economy and whatnot in these comments, but I think this is the real issue. Sony’s first party games are all very similar nowadays with cinematic games with a third person, over-the -shoulder, story-focused, action-adventure game with light rpg mechanics such as crafting and a skill tree. With those types of games comes soundtracks that aren’t focused on strong, memorable melodies and instead go with sounds that evoke certain feelings that might add to a scene, but aren’t distinct enough to distract from it.

Re: 'Things Are Progressing Really Smoothly': Nomura Shares Rare Update on Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Kingdom Hearts 4

Still nothing about Dragon Quest XII though. I still haven’t beaten Rebirth yet. I’m just looking forward to see what they do with FFXVII in hopes that it is interesting to me. The VII Remake trilogy’s story annoys me and XVI was a huge disappointment. I only beat the first Kingdom Hearts game so I can’t speak to that franchise. I’d love to play the games, but never find the time.
