I've been having a blast with it. I love the hectic and chaotic nature of it and trying to get the most out of your equipment on different runs. It's great!
Sometimes you don't really have time to think as it's just full send all the time but I'm loving it regardless.
People are already spending that amount on games anyway. Look at the pre-orders on the PSN Store. The deluxe edition of Ghost of Yotei, which is £79.99, has more pre-orders than the standard version. As does the deluxe edition of Death Stranding 2.
The notion that people won't spend this sort of money isn't as ridiculous as some of you think it is.
I haven't played Zenless Zone Zero in months so I'm not necessarily against playing a new gacha. It only really depends on whether or not I stick with it.
It is a ridiculous amount of damage but a lot of the damage focused Luminas in the game scale with each other so it's no surprise you can do huge damage.
That said, the damage numbers being in the billions is pretty crazy!
The soundtrack is just one of many incredible things about this game. I'm all for some DLC. There are a few different directions they could go with it so it'll be interesting to see which avenue Sandfall decide to go down!
@MrPeanutbutterz Ah, I see! I knew it was a roguelike but I just assumed you had to try to build the best poker hand? Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.
I've decided to start another run of Bloodborne this weekend. I need something to tide me over until the 24th when Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 releases.
Maybe a bit of Monster Hunter Wilds as well and I plan on checking out the Unbeatable demo too.
Part of me wants to be excited for it, however I just don’t seem to be.
It won’t be the next Concord (curse my fat-fingering of the poll…) because Bungie have a pretty decent reputation and I think a lot of current and ex-Destiny players will give this a go.
The real question is: how many of the players on launch week will keep coming back for more? Time will tell.
The cinematic at the end looked so much more exciting than the actual gameplay. In saying that, I thought the gameplay itself looked okay. I'd rather still play Hunt: Showdown for my extraction shooter fix though.
Probably some Atomfall for me this weekend. I reckon I'm pretty close to finishing it. I'm not rushing though, however I do want to finish it before Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 releases in just under two weeks.
I have around 400 hours in this game and I still haven't finished it. I keep restarting with new mods and classes and such. I really should just commit to a playthrough.

Re: Beloved, Brutal Metroidvania Nine Sols Is on the Approach to Selling 1 Million Copies
Fantastic game that’s well worth your time if you’re into metroidvania’s and can parry. The final boss is absolutely incredible.
Re: PS5, PC Live Service Fairgames Is a 'Super Clunky' Cross Between Fortnite and The Division
The problem with live-service games is that some need to fail for others to succeed.
Re: Rematch Open Beta Kicks Off on PS5 Next Week, Here's Everything You Need to Know
I was hoping to give the technical test a go a few weeks ago but they sent me a code for the wrong platform.
It'll be good to finally give this a go because I'm still on the fence about it.
Re: Real Fans Will Find a Way to Buy $80 Games, Says Borderlands Boss
@Bez87 Yeah, I do agree. It's really down to what you value, isn't it? Borderlands 4 might be an £80 game to some but not to me.
It is a big investment for sure and it's a terrible feeling spending money on something without getting your money's worth out of it.
Re: Real Fans Will Find a Way to Buy $80 Games, Says Borderlands Boss
@Lowdefal Fair point. If the tat was in the game to begin with, would that justify it being £80??
And I agree, 2K can sod off.
Re: Real Fans Will Find a Way to Buy $80 Games, Says Borderlands Boss
@gamer153 I'm not really into the series either.
Re: Real Fans Will Find a Way to Buy $80 Games, Says Borderlands Boss
@Bez87 Yeah, you make a fair point. I just think if people want the game enough, they'll pay for it regardless.
It'll have a knock-on effect for sure though.

Re: Poll: 10 Years Later, What Are Your Thoughts on The Witcher 3?
Great game. Just not as good as Bloodborne, in my opinion.
Re: The Sinking City Remastered Out Now in Surprise PS5 Launch
This game always intrigued me but for whatever reason I just never pulled the trigger on it.
This remaster seems like it could be a good reason to change that.

Re: You Don't Have Much Time Left to Take Advantage of Expedition 33's Strongest Attack
It is a ridiculous amount of damage but a lot of the damage focused Luminas in the game scale with each other so it's no surprise you can do huge damage.

Re: Mafia: The Old Country Looks Glorious in Gameplay Trailer, PS5 Release Date Confirmed
Looks great! Day one for sure!
Re: Expedition 33's Awesome Soundtrack Is Blowing Up, and Fans Think It Holds a Clue About DLC
The soundtrack is just one of many incredible things about this game. I'm all for some DLC. There are a few different directions they could go with it so it'll be interesting to see which avenue Sandfall decide to go down!
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?
10/10. Outstanding game and easily the best game of the year so far. I don't see anything topping it for me personally.
Re: EA to Properly Reveal New Battlefield Game This Summer
Please just be good. Please be good.

Re: Expedition 33 Is Increasing in Popularity with Each Successive Week
Glad to see. It's a beautiful game!
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for May 2025?
@MrPeanutbutterz Yeah, I'll check it out, for sure. I'm sure it'll be quite good once I get the hang of it!
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for May 2025?
@MrPeanutbutterz Ah, I see! I knew it was a roguelike but I just assumed you had to try to build the best poker hand? Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.
I'm sure I'll give it a try at some point anyway!
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for May 2025?
Balatro seems like a good shout given how well received it is. I just... don't know how to play Poker. 😅
Re: FromSoftware Wants to Explain Elden Ring Nightreign to You Again
I’m super hyped for it! If any of you want someone to play with, hit me up!
Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (April 2025)
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a masterpiece. The story is so incredibly beautiful and emotional.
It's my personal Game of the Year so far.
Re: Xbox's Multiformat Move to PS5 Seems to Be Working Out Very Well for Microsoft
It’s a smart decision. They need to actually sell their games as offering them all on day one on gamepass doesn’t seem to be making them enough money.
I’d love to see some of the original Gears of War or Halo games make the jump. I’d buy those in a heartbeat.
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 DLC Is on the Cards After Positive Reception
I’m not surprised and I really hope they consider it. I’ve just started Act III and I’ve been loving every minute!
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?
Incredible game so far. Absolutely loving every second of it!
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
@B0udoir There is French voice acting, yes.
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
Game of the year.
Re: These 14+ New PS5, PS4 Games Are Coming Out This Week (21st-27th April)
Everything else goes on hold once Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 releases.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 577
I've decided to start another run of Bloodborne this weekend. I need something to tide me over until the 24th when Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 releases.
Maybe a bit of Monster Hunter Wilds as well and I plan on checking out the Unbeatable demo too.
Re: Stellar Blade Director Is Now One of the Richest People in Korea
He's helped create one of the best games on PS5, so it's no surprise.

Re: Poll: Are You Planning to Buy Bungie's Marathon?
Part of me wants to be excited for it, however I just don’t seem to be.
It won’t be the next Concord (curse my fat-fingering of the poll…) because Bungie have a pretty decent reputation and I think a lot of current and ex-Destiny players will give this a go.
The real question is: how many of the players on launch week will keep coming back for more? Time will tell.
Re: Marathon a 'Premium', Paid for Game on PS5, But It's Not $70
I reckon this game will have a somewhat strong launch because I think a lot of Destiny players will jump on it with it being Bungie's new game.
I really think this game should be free-to-play though.
Re: Bungie's New PS5 Shooter Marathon Grabs September Release Date
The cinematic at the end looked so much more exciting than the actual gameplay. In saying that, I thought the gameplay itself looked okay. I'd rather still play Hunt: Showdown for my extraction shooter fix though.
If this isn't free to play, I doubt I'll play it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 576
