Re: Intergalactic PS5 Game All About Faith, Religion, and 'Being Lonely'

LavenderShroud

I love this idea!! I wish there would be more stuff out like this. Everything these days is all about equality, social issues, DEI, etc., etc. But then act like religion is some awful thing that doesn’t deserve representation. I’m religious myself, and definitely want to try this. Now that I think about it, wasn’t Bioshock very popular? I heard it had a ton of religious overtones. So what happened to making things like that?

Re: Talking Point: Has the Market for AA Games on PS5 Really Disappeared?

LavenderShroud

As much as I DON’T want to comment on one of these articles. I might as well throw my two cents in.

I feel, and I myself only observe and don’t play games a whole lot, BUT for me and my brother think personally is that most people only care about whatever big name, overhyped, insane graphics game comes out lately. Stellar Blade (disappointed), Baldur’s Gate 3, Kingdom Come Deliverance II. You know things like that. I feel that’s all anyone talks about anymore. But the two of us like simpler games. Especially anime-style. BUT I also feel that maybe there isn’t a market for in on PS5, because…PS4 is still so widely supported? My brother bought the newest Neptunia for PS4 instead of 5, because it’s still supported, and because the Switch game was censored, that’s another subject entirely.

Personally for the two of us there is still a market for AA games. Idea Factory games or even something like Yook-Laylee (No I don’t consider that indie in anyway) are what we enjoy. The only two games I have on Switch are One Piece games, which would be AA. It mostly just comes down to everyone’s preference. I personally have never saw much appeal to indie games and everyone seems to love those. I will say I do like Nintendo’s first party offerings which to me is the best of any AAA, especially lately.

Side note: If say Call of Duty is AAA and these are AA, then what would a single A game be? Indie?

Re: The Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered PS5 Trophies Are Once Again a Mess

LavenderShroud

@JonnyAces I guess when you put it that way, it does make more sense. I collect trading cards that just get stored in binders never to really be seen. I just feel some people blow trophies out of proportion and get mad if it’s not done right. It’d be like me throwing a fit if I didn’t get like a Charizard card in every Pokémon pack I buy…

Re: The Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered PS5 Trophies Are Once Again a Mess

LavenderShroud

@Andy22385 Is that really a missing feature though? It’s just a trophy. This is also on Switch. Which doesn’t have trophies. A missing feature would be like if it had something like a mini-game that was on one version and not the other. Or if the trophies actually unlocked something in the game, then that would be reasonable to be mad about.

Re: Would You Pay $100 for GTA 6?

LavenderShroud

What, $100 for a game that’ll probably be buggy, need updates to fix, likely be half finished, and THEN need paid DLC to finish it? How the HELL does anyone think this is a good idea?! I mean it is one thing to get a deluxe or collector’s edition for that price when it has extras, but $100 for a base game is absolutely stupid.

Re: Poll: Will the Switch 2 Compete with PS5?

LavenderShroud

Does everyone really see the Switch as a “secondary console”? My brother far and beyond plays the Switch way WAY more than PS4/5 or even XONE. I think Switch 2 will do rather well, and while not directly competing with PS5, might possibly outsell it if done properly. But the whole topic of “casuals buying the Switch” does have a lot of merit as well.

Re: Shuhei Yoshida Reels Off List of Reasons the PS Vita Bombed

LavenderShroud

I still think those damn memory cards are what really screwed the Vita from the start. Way too expensive and now they’re a nightmare to track down. I do enjoy the Vita TV I got, but I’m hesitant on buying more games because I can’t get more storage. It really should have used microSD, using specialty cards just felt outdated by that time I would say. However while I don’t have a lot of systems, the Vita is definitely one of my favorites.

Re: Video Game Industry 'Doesn't Want a Game Pass', Says Market Analyst

LavenderShroud

I think it’s nice to be able to try games. My brother had it a few times and we played ReCore and Battletoads, but at the end of the day, we want to buy games and play them whenever we want. Not have to be tied to a subscription service that needs to constantly be renewed. The last time he had it we couldn’t find anything worthwhile to play except those two aforementioned games.

Re: Square Enix Vows to Deny Toxic Fans Its Wonderful Games, Services

LavenderShroud

Aren’t like all gaming communities increasingly toxic though? Have you seen some of the comments on this site? I’ve even been harassed constantly to the point of quitting two Nintendo sites. I’m no fan of the VAs for these FFVII remakes, but I’m not going to criticize and berate them just because they’re not to my liking.
