@Haruki_NLI all it means is that the ps5 could've launched to a higher number than it did. And possibly wouldn't be a record broken by the s2 if this rumor is even true
But that said I feel like launch records barely even matter and more so the longevity of the console. What does it matter that ps5 broke a lot of launch records in the beginning if its now trailing behind ps4 in some countries even if only by like a million
Anecdotal evidence here lol: practically every one I know has not gotten the new console and don't plan on getting it and it's just weird to me cause we all have switches. I'm curious to see how it does I guess
Did they really do an announcement for an announcement of a remaster? I feel like you should save that for a new game or something. But if they're doing it for a remaster maybe it's an important one like for a game that hasn't seen a release outside of Japan. Tales of rebirth for the win!
Nioh 3 demo. This game is so good so far, what I love most is the open ended areas, I get so overwhelmed but in a good way on which direction to go 1st lol. Combat is gonna take a bit to get used to tho but for the most part is still awesome. I can't wait to explore this game fully
And also Code Vein with a friend. We've been really enjoying this one, imagine our surprise that they reveal a sequel π
@themightyant when i said i hope they understand that, i mean sony themselves xD. But Idk man, cause that state of play ur talking about was probably even more negatively received than this one. And this one had a little more variety and even propped up niche japanese devs. It's like you said in your other post, they can't win no matter what they do. But it's pretty telling why when the most wanted game of the show is 007, when that wasn't even the game Sony propped up as the most important
I am legitimately baffled anyone could call that show disappointing and there ARE people calling it that. Like wtf are you even playing π. But then I remember the kinds of players PS has been fostering for years now it kinda makes sense I guess. That was their best show in ages. And I do so really hope they understand that
@Mintie I know I can't believe it was reveal and literally playable rn I can't π. If I had ps plus I'd be doing what I did with the other betas for so many hours which was to help people thru the beta. Soo fun
I saw that anby mod while I was scrolling thru the mods section! That was so cool. And ofc i was only looking thru the mods for uh research purposes. I totally wasn't using some of the other mods on the page
Wasnt this confirmed to be a pc, mobile, console game? I was hoping and still am hoping it's more console and pc game than mobile tho. And as usual people can't handle a bit of skimpy clothes on girls with big assets lol. Im all for it tho, assuming this is an actual console game. For every game we get like this, we get 10 more that wanna look like concord. But if it's a gacha, then it's dime a dozen. So guess we'll wait and see what this turns out to be
Had a lot of fun running through the demo again and it looks absolutely gorgeous. It's genuinely the best looking game I've played on pc, so far at least
Smt v not being on the list cause not enough people rated it (including me lol) is criminal. And what's with those scores for the lower end of the list. I didn't finish sonic frontiers but it's far from a 6. Same with P5T, geez
I enjoyed the beta a lot even with randoms that didn't know what they were doing or running off doing their own thing. If I only had my ps5 still, I wouldn't pick this up cuz I don't want to pay for online. But now I'm definitely curious having access to free online and can play this with a friend
@AdamNovice yea the only one I'm willing to spend on are the passes. They're genuinely worth it for the $5 but other than that, I can't bring myself to ever spend on top ups.
Here's hoping you do, but same my luck ran out it seems. But it was fun while it lasted. Getting characters and engines in less than 40 pulls almost every time was thrilling π
@get2sammyb possibly exceed yea. New class, a sort of overhaul on exploration, new void hunter tier character that looks a lot of fun, even more pulls, and now even older characters getting buffed. Sheesh
My hype was a bit deflated having lost all my luck in all these gachas now. I couldn't get Vivian let alone her and her engine but at least I'm on a guarantee for yi xuan. And I can get m2w1 Rina now lol so hype a bit restored. This patch is probably gonna be as awesome as the patch with miyabi
I assume the platform expansion means pc since this chart doesn't seem to indicate that it's what comes after the pc port
Anyway, best news of the year so far. This ip has so much potential. For a 1st game it was so incredibly fun. And while the story wasn't anything special. I so look forward to the fight that was basically teased at the end of the game. And please somehow bring back raven π
Atp a limited event quest with unique rewards is something exciting for me like the scarf thats coming tomorrow. There is a really amazing game in here but the slow drip feed has been kinda painful. I'm curious if this is how World and Rise felt at launch cause I played both well after all the TUs have been out
Still one of my top 10 video games of all time. I've been meaning to replay it and actually play through blood and wine for the 1st time. I also bought it again on pc along with Witcher 1 so I can't wait to really go through this series completely
@3Above it's definitely calling to me the most out of the 3. It was the 1st game I wishlisted when I got on steam lol. And yea a physical trilogy would be amazing and am still hoping happens
On ps5 still more tlou, and try to finish off all the limited event stuff from the gachas
On pc, still more mh world. I absolutely adore this game. And I think it might be my favorite out of the new gen trio. It's the closest one that feels like the older monster hunters. I also picked up FF13, GTA 4, and Witcher 1 really cheap. I'm trying to decide which one to play 1st
Thats a shame I personally would've loved it on my ps5 mostly cause i have more space there but I'll take it on steam in the meantime then. And that's assuming it's good enough to stick with it
The crushing part of the mobile game being canceled is that yoko shimomura just posted about it and hoping the music she made for it is heard somehow. And I hope so too, please add it to kh4 or something
Instead of letting us keep rolling for a chance to get the $400 character for free by just literally playing the game as you would any other game in existence. They'll lock them to the shop entirely and make us just buy them for 400 straight up. And all in the name of "transparency"
I genuinely do not believe multiplat on day 1 is going to help them the way they seem to think and want. At least not for the final part of a trilogy. Obviously I think ff17 could benefit from it at the start, but they're not going to get the monster sales they want just from that. The series already has some weird stigma surrounding it
The monster hunters are way too low. Easily Capcoms best series. I know World didn't really get a patch or ps5 version, but it plays way better on it than it did on ps4
@Pushsquarian it's not that I didn't like nikki it's that I couldn't keep up with 5 gachas π. I don't drop genshin only cause it was the 1st one to really kick off this trend of 3d gachas that feel more game-y than most, so I have a bit of a "see it thru to the end" stance with it. And I love HSR, ZZZ, and wuwa rn too much to ever drop. The only one I could drop was infinity nikki
It's so weird to remember all the doom and gloom back when MS bought Bethesda. We all really thought they'd have a massive catalog of exclusives. But instead the complete opposite happened
Yikes I think my limit on gachas is 4. I dropped infinity nikki cause it was either that or I played gachas the rest of my life lol. But since it's hoyo, I'm obviously gonna try it
@get2sammyb did you not play any of the pre switch era games π
Doing a few arch tempered Rey dau runs in MH Wilds and continuing with TLOU. Still really good so far
I also picked up MH World on pc and damn I finally understand the hype about pc a little. It's an extremely gorgeous game... when you turn off all the settings capcom had on by default anyway π. Been having so much fun with the insect glaive here
This is all concord had to do to survive longer than a week. Well that and actually make the characters appealing. I don't think anyone would have wanted to see those characters in bikinis lol
Not yet but I kinda want to. It depends on if it is the definitive way to experience the game. And if the changes made to the game are for the better. I've played a few hours of it on ps3 and it was fun but very confusing and eventually lost interest in continuing
Finally playing The Last of Us for the 1st time. Idk why it took me so long but it's been pretty good so far. One of my favorite implementations of stealth gameplay. Never too slow but you also don't breeze past clickers, making it all pointless. The story's been a little cliche but the character interactions have been great
And more Xenoblade X. Took me a while but got to ch.9, what a chapter 8 was. I'm really liking the story beats but getting to the actual story means going thru a bunch of side quests, affinity missions, and fighting a bunch of mobs to level up. It can be pretty exhausting at times. But when it clicks, it clicks. I'm still enjoying it and can't wait to get further into the story
