Re: 'Even I Can't Tell the Difference': Shuhei Yoshida Thinks PS6 Needs Something Other Than Just More Power

KundaliniRising333

This is a nonsense take. The Ps5 was underpowered at release. The low framerates on the most demanding games. The insane over reliance on dated versions of inferior upscalers also turns many amazing games into a blurry mess in motion. We are commonly getting medium/high hybrid graphics settings using FSR 2 tying to upscale 5-700p to 4k and still can't maintain a locked targeted framerate. More power is absolutely important. Yoshida is suggesting a gimmick here and the only one that has ever been successful is the switch.

I'm not saying 4k here by any means, that's a pipe dream for anything other than high end pcs. However don't act like rereading portable gimmicks is the answer. They sell to a small select group of enthusiasts for sure but a great deal of people have no interest in gaming on what amount to a very small tablet screen just to get their gaming fix on the go. The truth is blurring the line between the pc and console was the transformative move. Xbox beat them to that.

You want transformative? New and interesting ips/games and less price gouging would be evolutionary compared to this gen.

@Oramlol here we go again with this. I simply answered the question raised in the article. I get that many just come on here to praise allegiance but it's not a bad thing in my mind to maintain a position unless otherwise inclined to change it. I'm also not alone in these sentiments regarding current Gen, despite the common echo chamber seen online.

Free thinking is what it is.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 603

@StitchJones well I would firstly say like if you're looking for more Fast Pace action firefights then this just might not be what gets you going. The genre is much more of a slow burn in fact third person multiplayer games that have a PVP element usually are more of a slow burn because there's more tactical aspects that you have to consider when you can see around corners or see yourself in a bush and things like that but yeah the core gameplay is essentially and build your character over time. If you do look in the menus though you can see that there's stuff that's just not available during this server slam that are different like challenges and stuff like that so I think there's definitely going to be more content but if you don't like the core gameplay loop I don't think it's going to change your mind much.

My favorite multiplayer game of all time was the socom series and while it was a little more fast-paced because it's third person it just requires a little bit more tactical thought and it's less running gun in by Nature. Setting aside third person though it I pretty sure like hunt Showdown and obviously tarkov and stuff they're all very much so more of a high skill ceiling tactical slow Burn. However just like any multiplayer game especially one with live service elements the real goal is to just progress your character there's not really much else to these types of games I do like how this one though has a skill tree which I think is pretty cool because that's not as common in a lot of these multiplayer games and instead they opt for things like perks which is similar don't get me wrong.

But yeah my understanding is the core elements are the Looting extracting I think some of the aI enemies are actually quite good in terms of being more difficult . And it sounds like another aspect that's just not in this test is there's a lot of building different craft tables so that you can have the ability if you store it up enough resources to kind of have higher Rarity and more powerful gear that you can craft even if you do die and you kind of have that as a fallback.

I do agree with you though that I haven't seen many actual players but I have heard reports of a lot of camping of the extraction zones my biggest complaint really is the thick a bunch of the extraction zones disappear the longer you stay in a map so it just makes everyone have to use the same one at the end and half the time you've got someone camping in a bush and if you have to contend with that and drones also alerted and looking over the extraction site it can get kind of b*******.

I had my eye on this one mainly because of the aesthetic and that it was third person because I think aside from fortnite there hasn't been any really good third person multiplayer games since so calm and Sony's just completely screwed that off. So for me it kind of scratches that old Socom itch even though it's kind of a different genre but yeah I could see where it does seem very repetitive but I mean isn't that the case with all of these games and I don't really like the fortnite aesthetic so this is a good alternative. But if you want more just PVE fighting I would assume helldivers is your best bet but I'm not real big on that. So I might not be the best person to like respond to what you're asking only because I prefer slow Burns but if you like more running gun firefights this is probably not your genre and that's totally okay

Re: Sony Travelled to China to Discuss Mobile Adaptation of The Last of Us with Tencent

KundaliniRising333

The truth is Sony doesn't have a patent on any of this ***** and likeness alone isnt case winning. There are demon souls ripoff made weekly that some even copy the same garbage UI elements Fromsoft uses aside from all the gameplay elements.

I say let the game release it looks to play different and who knows. It may have some ideas that actually evolve the formula instead of milking one that has a ton of room to improve.

Re: Talking Point: PS6 In 2027 - How Do You Feel About Sony's Next-Gen Console?

KundaliniRising333

Even as a soley playstation player since their inception, It would be insane for me to look forward to next Gen after how Sony handled the current one. My aspirations of early adoption to their platform are completely gone. They would have to drastically course correct for me to do so again. Have there been great third party games,.. Yes of course. However, that's not Sony and excuse making using this talking point makes zero sense.

At this point building a lasting pc is the plan.

Re: Next Expedition 33 Update Adds New Area, Bosses, Outfits for Free

KundaliniRising333

Heck yes. Part of me wishes they would have stuck to their original intent and left this IP as a one off and moved onto something new with the knowledge and success gained via development of e33. As it really is better as a one off story.

They immediately shifted course on this after it's success. As welcome as these new additions are great but I almost hope that these additions to the original is all they meant.

Re: Preview: Marvel Tokon's Biggest Battle Isn't in the Arena

KundaliniRising333

One of the biggest games of 2026 is a marvel ip fighting game. Lmfao suuuuure. It's just the games media machine hyping this along with a few enthusiasts and marvel stans. It's just another fighting game. No matter the coat of paint there is only so much you can do in a 2 dimensional space in this genre. They all end up playing relatively the same and imo get boring equally as well.

To play this up like some new, unique, universally sought after mega release though, cmon now.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Getting Sick of Sony's Supposedly 'Samey' Approach to Story Telling?

KundaliniRising333

It's not the stories that feel samey for me. It's the lack of creativity in favor of very iterative sequels or remasterakes that for some reason still require huge budgets and minimum 4 year Dev times to produce that which re-uses so much.

Quality is there but it's starting to feel very uninspired and it shows when you play them and get that feeling that you've done this all before. Knowing the talented studios they have/had, it can be underwhelming to see the majority them playing it so safe rather than creating bold innovative new experiences on different scales that result in a more diverse portfolio of games on offer.

Re: Sony Is a 'Terrible Company' That's 'Blowing It in the Games Business', Says Michael Pachter

KundaliniRising333

? While I do think Sony is completely blowing it in terms of gamer centric sentiment this generation as well as where they chose to invest their Studios and revrnue in.....The idea that they're blowing it from a business sense is absurd.

This schill is just clearly advertising for nonsensical Ai pipe deams to influence investors. In terms of cloud gaming that is literally already been tried and failed several times from even non-gaming Centric platforms. There are too many variables that make streaming still an outlier. Sure it could work for the "games" that are structured on live service predatory nonsense however for True AAA and AA games it's a sacrifice in many aspects to cloud game.

"The AI is the future that is going to save the world and make many rich," nonsense is just that. in fact it's primary use is just going to be another means to enslave us, take jobs, and homogenize anything it touches.
