This is honestly pretty funny and a nice option for those people who are really afraid of spiders. I'm not too afraid of them compared to cockroaches. I hope more games do this in the future. I do know that Jedi: Survivor also has an arachnophobia mode but I didn't really see any spiders in that game.
June is a big month because of SF6, Diablo 4, and FFXVI. Especially since D4's release date is like 4 days after SF6 so big releases within several days. Whereas FF16 is releasing near the end of June. Can't wait for FFXVI
I doubt it'll be announced anytime soon but I was really disappointed by the characters and story of DL2. Overall, I enjoyed the first game much more than the 2nd.
Honestly, I don't think I'll be getting Quidditch Champions. I'm not a huge fan of it (but I don't dislike the mode either). So that's why I'm not frustrated that it's being sold as a separate game.
Still playing LAD: Ishin on PS5 but I finished the main story and now just working on the side stuff like Ultimate Challenges and eventually the completion list.
I'm playing Like a Dragon: Ishin after finally getting to it since I don't play multiple games at once. After I platinum'd Hogwarts Legacy like last week, I decided to play Ishin and been loving it so far. Currently on chapter 5 and been taking my time with the game and doing a lot of side stuff.
SO happy to see Hogwarts Legacy still in first place. I finally got the plat yesterday and it was a solid game overall. Congrats to Avalanche for making it!
You can just skip the prologue and only play from the ceremony by backing up your save to PS+ which means you only need to play roughly 2 hours to get to the map chamber quest with the other 3 houses. Meaning skipping all dialogue, cutscenes, and unnecessary side quests. I'm still on my collectible run and I'm almost done.
@Total_Weirdo Same I don't care that much if Sony does end up losing COD. The modern ones don't really interest me in terms of multiplayer so I haven't bought any lately.
I'm looking forward to it honestly. I like the action Final Fantasy games as much as the turn-based ones and this one seems really fun. I've played many RPGs and I think I'm okay with FF16 being a full-on RPG.
These two were like the only exciting things and we've already known about them for a while. Maybe Baldur's Gate 3 if I was a CRPG fan and that Lightfall trailer if I was a huge fan of Destiny 2.
Finishing up the FeMC route of Persona 3 Portable and then probably move on to the male one to get the platinum. After that, back to Hogwarts Legacy to clean up for the trophies and then most likely Like a Dragon: Ishin after.
I already have Code Vein since I bought it back in 2019. As for BF2042, I'm not a huge fan of multiplayer fps games with the exception of some of the old CODs. Was never interested in Minecraft: Dungeons so meh month in terms of the PS+ Essential games.
This game is definitely a mixed bag. The dialogue in this game is also a hit and miss since it can be cringey and other times not be like that. It's a damn shame since this game looks quite good too.
@Vil Haha yeah, no matter what I do it just stays at 33/34 Field Guide pages collected for the Bell Tower wing. Thankfully that none of the Revelio Pages have bugged out.
The Collector's Edition trophy was one issue that me and many others had so I'm glad to hear that it's been fixed. I probably just need to get one collectible and then it'll update.
There's also that one field guide page that is bugged in the Bell Tower wing that flies around but thankfully it doesn't count towards the collection.
As a trophy hunter myself, I'll attempt it and see far how I get. I might even end up getting the platinum. I hope this doesn't turn out like Y0 since I got most of the trophies but gave up when I had about 5 left.
That's a beautiful controller and I love the Hogwarts design on the touchpad. Thank goodness it's also available in the US too. Hopefully I'm able to get one.
I've already finished Mafia: DE a long time ago and the other games (including the D2 expansion) don't really interest me THAT much. So this month is kinda meh to me honestly.
Finished my first playthrough of Persona 4 Golden earlier and loved the game overall. Gonna be speeding through NG+ so I can fight the secret boss (which is the last trophy I'll get before platinum). Then will probably move on to Portable or Skywalker Saga
For the ones I've played, definitely Persona 4 Golden (almost done with it but might play some P3P before HL comes out on the 6th). But if I had to pick one that I enjoyed watching, definitely Dead Space.

Re: Surprise! Guerrilla Games Pretty Much Confirms Horizon 3
Not really surprised but I could never really get into the Horizon games. Happy for those who love the games though

Re: Rumour: Persona 3 Remake Gameplay 'Leak' Is Going Viral
Seems definitely fan made and I saw some Sonic gameplay in there so not believing it.
Re: Almost Every Mainline Final Fantasy Game Will Soon Be Playable on Current PlayStation Consoles
I really hope that 13 is ported some day to the PS4/PS5 because I'd be interested in playing it. Also, for Lightning.
Re: Resident Evil 4 Fans Aren't Exactly Thrilled with Microtransactions on PS5, PS4
I don't think anyone really is happy but they also did this for the remakes of RE2 and RE3. So I'm not really surprised by it tbh.
Re: Meet Your Maker (PS5) - Raid and Build Concept a Great Idea Yet to Reach Its Potential
I looked at a few streams of this several days ago and it didn't really interest me that much honestly.
Re: Dead Island 2's Spoiler Free Trophy List Has Arrived, Co-Op Required for Platinum
@Bunchesopuppies The co-op trophies aren't even that bad compared to the first game or Riptide.

Excited for Jedi: Survivor on the 28th

Re: Final Fantasy 16 Goes Gold Well Ahead of June Release Date
I'm definitely excited for FF16 since I pre-ordered the standard edition a few weeks back. It's been one of my most anticipated games of this year.
Re: The Last of Us on PC Attracts 'Mostly Negative' Reviews for Crashes, Poor Performance
@OmegaStriver That's such a silly thing to say.
Re: Capcom Fans Split Over What Classic Game Should Be Remade Next
Dino Crisis and Code: Veronica is definitely up there. I doubt Capcom will ever do it but I do hope that they remake RE1 in the RE Engine.
Re: Genshin Impact Dev's Turnbased RPG Honkai: Star Rail Confirmed for PS5, PS4
As a fan of turn-based games (though not all), I'll probably be checking this out once it hits PS4/PS5.

Re: Techland Ditches the Zombies, Working on Open World Fantasy Epic Next
@Nepp67 I thought the story in Dying Light 1 was okay. Not terrible but not great either. Dying Light 2's though was a disappointment.

Re: Xbox Execs Eager to Save Call of Duty Fans from PS5, PS4 Exclusive Perks

Re: Sony Must Share Details of Exclusivity Deals with Microsoft in FTC's Court Hearing
@Snake_V5 Yeah, I am still surprised that FF7 Remake is still not on Xbox after all these years.
Re: Rumour: Shin Megami Tensei 5 to Be Announced for PS5, PS4 in May, But There's No Real Evidence
I'd be somewhat interested if this really does come to PS4/PS5 but the story in SMT V was pretty weak according to multiple people.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About Final Fantasy 16?
I'm looking forward to it honestly. I like the action Final Fantasy games as much as the turn-based ones and this one seems really fun. I've played many RPGs and I think I'm okay with FF16 being a full-on RPG.
Re: Hitman Dev Confirms Online Fantasy RPG, But No Mention of PS5
What happened with that Bond game? Haven't really heard anything new since they announced it.
Re: Resident Evil 4, Street Fighter 6 the Big Winners from State of Play
These two were like the only exciting things and we've already known about them for a while. Maybe Baldur's Gate 3 if I was a CRPG fan and that Lightfall trailer if I was a huge fan of Destiny 2.

Re: Mortal Kombat 12 Wasn't At State of Play, But Was Just Announced
Hopefully the story is good and enjoyable. The last MK story I loved was MK9's.
Re: PS Plus Essential, Extra Games for March 2023 Announced Early
I already have Code Vein since I bought it back in 2019. As for BF2042, I'm not a huge fan of multiplayer fps games with the exception of some of the old CODs. Was never interested in Minecraft: Dungeons so meh month in terms of the PS+ Essential games.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for Thursday with PSVR2, Indies, Third-Party Games, and Suicide Squad
Kinda interested in seeing the PSVR2 games but not so much for Suicide Squad since it's a live-service game.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Like a Dragon: Ishin?
Not at the moment but I do have it installed on my PS5. Currently playing through P3P and Hogwarts is on hold.
Re: Metal Gear Rising Fans Handed New Artwork Instead of a Remaster
@chucksneed I think it deserves one because there is no way to play it on a PS4.

Not surprised at all considering the overall tone of this game. Glad I didn't get this game honestly.

Re: Fate Had Other Plans for Kratos in Earlier Draft of God of War Ragnarok
@Saitama117 Eh, I think Ragnarok is much better than the 2018 game in like almost every way. So I disagree with your statement.
I never had an issue playing as Atreus tbh.
Re: The Witcher 3 PS5 Performance Mode Noticeably Worse After Patch 4.01
@BoldAndBrash I disagree with all your points. The combat is actually solid and it's fun to play as a mage or go full melee.
Re: Dead Island 2 Release Date Brought Forward, Resurrects One Week Earlier on PS5, PS4
Good choice considering it had the same release date as Jedi Survivor. I'm hoping that it's good since I loved the first game and Riptide.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Hogwarts Legacy?
Yeah, I ended up pre-ordering the Digital Deluxe edition a few weeks ago. And I am pretty happy with it since the game is really good.
Re: PS5, PS4 Action RPG Eternights Returns, Targets Summer Release Date
The Persona fan in me is somewhat excited but I'll probably wait for reviews first.
Re: Call of Duty Is the Main Reason People Buy PS5, PS4, Says New Survey
I used to care a lot about COD but that was many years ago. The reason why I bought and moved to PlayStation was for the exclusives.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy PS5 DualSense Controller Revealed, Out Tomorrow in Limited Supply

Re: New PS5, PS4 Games This Week (6th February to 12th February)
So excited to play Hogwarts Legacy tomorrow. One of the only few games this month that interested me.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for February 2023?
I've already finished Mafia: DE a long time ago and the other games (including the D2 expansion) don't really interest me THAT much. So this month is kinda meh to me honestly.

Re: Poll: What Was Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Game in January 2023?
For the ones I've played, definitely Persona 4 Golden (almost done with it but might play some P3P before HL comes out on the 6th). But if I had to pick one that I enjoyed watching, definitely Dead Space.
Re: Poll: What PS5, PS4 Games Are You Most Looking Forward to in February 2023?
Hogwarts Legacy and Like a Dragon: Ishin are the two games I'm looking forward to the most this month
