I sold this to a mate after getting the plat for it. Might be time to see if i can borrow it again to go through all these DLC levels and get the rest of the bots.
I wont buy another VR2 but this is one game that makes me wish id held out a few more months from selling mine to a buddy. I may have to borrow it back again off him ๐
@Northern_munkey hey mate, hope your good? As far as im aware GT7 is the only one of those 3 games that is compatible with the VR2. Dirt rally was VR1 and EA WRC isnt VR at all, atleast on consoles. Ive had 2 VR2 headsets now and dont regret selling either. GT7 is great tho in VR, especially with a racing setup.
I wouldnt call myself a veteran MH player but ive played enough to know i know what im doing. I like Wilds when im battling monsters but that about it. The story is crap to the point where im just skipping cut scenes to get to the next battle. I have fainted a couple of times but thats down to my own stupidity as opposed to the difficulty. Maybe im just not far enough through yet (about to fight the octopus thing) but ive never felt i need to really prepare with anything other than mega potions and a couple of antidotes. I dont like the bases in comparison to Rise or World either. They felt like a mini village and were nice and vibrant,especially Rise. I dunno somethings just missing for me in this game. I went with a 7. It would be interesting to know the percentage of people giving it the high marks that are coming in to Wilds as their first MH game as imo it pales in comparison to Rise.
@Cutmastavictory i will defenately be upgrading my equipment for those fights then. In all honesty tho i thought there was a huge difficulty gap from the previouse monster (pink ape thing)
Ive only started playing it a couple of evenings ago but so far the only real threat for me was the Alpha bear thing you fight that comes from the forest in to the dunes area. It was a walk in the park up until then. He was the only time i struggled but id purposefully not upgraded any armour or weapons. The story is very hand holdy tho so far.
Like the art style but im not keen on the drab aesthetic and colour palette. I liked the pop of colours in TMNT and enjoyed its faster pace more than SOR4 which felt like walking through quick sand unless using Cherry, who could dash. Still enjoyed it tho.
@J2theEzzo thanks for the response. It was a pain in the arse in world. The talk of this new entry being easier and your confirmation about the multiplayer being locked out like in World has made me not want to get this at all. The way rise did it was perfect and worked like a charm.
What i want to know is can you get in to an online party as easy as you can in Rise or do you have to go through all the ballache of World of having to set up oarties, make sure youve all seen the same cut scenes etc. That was a deal breaker for me. Rise was so easy to just find a party. As the the online aspect was completely stand alone from the single player story.
@Beetlebum91 yeah, switch is the worst for it by far. Doesn't help that the store loads at a snails pace either. I just use Dekudeals now to see all the stuff on sale and filter it etc.
Glad to see Guardiand of the galaxy up there. I was about getting ready to writeva snarky comment until i see it listed so high up. Playing it now and its a great game.
Tried the demo and wasnt blown away. Not as good as EA's first next gen outing imo (graphically, commentary, general feel) which i managed to get the plat for or maybe its just because im unsed to that game.
Same as above. I will go physical for as long as i can and then when i cant, if i choose to still stay in the hobby everything will be purchased during sales or via savvy spending methods (buying cheaper credit from online retailers like CDkeys or shopto etc) gaming is already an expensive luxury hobby and bills just keep going up unfortunately.
Once they see how much more money they will make by releasing their IP on multi platforms rather chasing those pointless gamepass subs they will put everything on everything they can. They will make an absolute rediculous fortune and as much as i dont like MS brand, fair play to them.
Completed the first 2 via co op and they were amazing games to play. Defenately the xbox game i would consider buying if it made it to PS in an upscaled form. I wont be paying for straight ports.
Would love to getcthis but no matter how much i tried the last game gave me brain melt and i just couldnt get my head around it. Even after following youtube guides etc.
@TheArt as long as ive got a hole in my a** that game will never drop below ยฃ29.99 ๐
I usually pick up some of the older games in these sales. Got Batman collection for ยฃ3.50 in the last sale. Bargain!!
I will buy physical for as long as i can and when i cant my spendage on games will go down by a hell of a lot. Physical game ARE cheaper upon launch and when im done or i dont like something i can get something back for them in trade ins or online selling. Paid ยฃ22 for Metaphor a few weeks ago from Amazon, didnt like it and sold it today for ยฃ26. ยฃ44 is the all time low PS store sale price so far.
@ATaco "You'd think the most loyal would get rewarded but nope, they're treated as piggy banks" Yeah but thats the same as every company. Phone bills, Sky, virgin media etc.... Theyre all the same. They only care about enticing new customers in to the fold and screwing the existing loyal customers.
