They make a Dragon Age game that is Dragon Age only in name and are surprised that it underperformed?

I actually enjoyed the game, but was only able to do so when I ignored it's name. It has great gameplay but the dialogue is awful and characters lack depth.

Skill Up but it best when they said: "Every interaction between companions feels like HR is in the room"

Make a Dragon Age or a new IP, but don't make a new IP pretending to be Dragon Age. It doesn't bring new people due to lack of interest in the original IP, and it distance long time fans from it.

I guess Bimmy needs some extra cash.

This "Soccer" you're talking about looks a lot like Football.

I guess it's inspired by it.

@DennisReynolds Don't forget the previous outrage from the "woke" crowd that this game was racist.

Like most things on the internet, both sides are generally very loud minorities that want to force their ideals onto other people.

Someone voted good?

Hermen, what are you doing here? Go back to sinking PlayStation!

@sanderson72 I understand that point of view, but I assume a lot of people, especially children and parents, don't differentiate that much between Mario Kart 8 or 9. It's just Mario Kart.

Everyone here is a video game enthusiast and understands games more than the average consumer.

But if it happens the way you said it, I wouldn't be surprised either.

The real question is: "Is it going to compete with the Nintendo Switch?"

It just looks like an upgraded Switch without any new considerable features. A lot of people that bought the Switch are casual gamers who will see no reason to upgrade to a newer version of the same console.

It's also a market much more saturated with powerful portable devices.

I wouldn't be surprised if it sells less than the PS5.

I live in the UK and buy half of my games physically. I like having a physical collection.

I dread the moment I won't be able to that anymore, and it seems to be coming sooner rather than later.

Not my game if the year but it totally deserves it!

In my opinion this is waaay too high on the list. The predecessor had much better plot and it was less bloated.

But I also think Metaphor deserves to be in the top 2 and I know people are going to cry a lot when it shows up next.

@Herculean What do you mean? The Super Bowl is the last match of a whole tournament.

Just the FIFA World Cup final had 1.5 billion viewers. I think you're a bit misinformed in this occasion.

Not to be the "actually" guy, but both the Olympics and the FIFA World Cup had much higher numbers than the 150mil by the Game Awards.

He's a really nice guy and in my opinion a good voice actor.

More of his voice acting is a win for everyone.

Video game god?

Relax on the compliments, toxic positivity leads to games like Concord.

Can't wait for the brain implant so I can be an Xbox!

A good character can't fix a broken game.

Also, extremely exaggerated and over hyped article title.

Reads who wrote it

Of course.

The game looks fantastic, but I'm not sold on the dialogue. It sounds like a Hollywood B movie. Hopefully this snippet is not representative of the story as a whole.

@elvisfan1 Oh, you're following the trend! Sorry to question you, mate! That makes you 100% right!

We all know that trend followers are the best judges! How's your NFT doing? Cryptocurrency investments?

@elvisfan1 Have you ever heard of The Crew? People paid over $60 for it and it got completely shut down.

The fact that you know nothing about it and preach that going digital is ok shows the lack of knowledge of the general audience.

You're giving away your right to own something and don't even know about it.

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare Yeah, I totally agree.

Downgrading from Premium to Extra might've been one of the best decisions of my life.

I thought they were re-remaking The Last of Us for the PS5 Pro. Apparently you can notice even more leaf and hair movement than before.

@riceNpea Nope, I typed on my £240 second hand Xiaomi.

I spend too much on games to have a top of the line cellphone 😂

The amount of people that would fork more than $400 for a handheld device is too damn high!

@Vorflynn That's unfortunate but it makes sense. Thanks for the info.

Good. No one should promote criminals.

The fact that he's not going to jail shows a very flawed justice system.

@Nexozi No one would be that evil! 😂

@Nexozi No, my joke was that the game is still not finished.

Can't wait when they announce version 1.0 is coming out.

I'm glad they tried something new.

I always felt the team was constrained by the mandatory student/classroom setting of the Persona series and this game shows it.

I think it has better plot than any Persona game and it drags way less than any of them.

@themightyant To clarify, when I say it has no value, I meant it has no value as a real record.

It can add value to the person who was "judged" by Guinness, highlighting even more that it is a payment to be promoted, and not a record in itself.

A Guinness world record has absolutely no value.

People pay Guinness a ton of money, they register the record and that's it. There's very little investigation on the veracity of the records and even known cheaters have records.

Tommy Talarico has Guinness world records, that's how accurate they are.

@themightyant That's a fair assessment too.

I think Sonic 06 had potential, and fan remakes show that.

But it's definitely better to let bygones be bygones and make a new and better game.

@themightyant I think you're missing the point.
Remaking a great late PS3 game like the Last of Us for the PS5 felt wholly unnecessary. It already looked great and played well.

Remaking a flawed mediocre looking game with rushed development and a lot of wasted potential makes sense.

People are tired of remakes of new and great games, remaking a flawed game and fixing it is a great idea

You decided to write a professional article and use the word "hater". Really?

Can you be a bit more descriptive and explain that it's a mix of people that align themselves with different ideals and haven't played the game, so they're just giving low scores for that reason with people that played the original trilogy and are disappointed with the lackluster dialogue and lack of impact on the choices.

By saying hater, you're absolutely not helping with establishing any dialogue between opposing opinions. Just helping with the divide.

If you're going to write a professional article, be professional.

They're after the developers of Palworld because of patent they filed AFTER the game was released. That's incredibly scummy and it's just the big guy bullying the small one.

I'm sorry to be extreme, but Nintendo can go step on a Lego.

Fast and Furious 9 you say?

So it's a Rings of Power scenario, not a Fallout scenario.

That's sad.

I don't see any problems with review bombing.
If you really think user scores are worth anything, that's on you.

Watch gameplay videos on yt and decide for yourself, no one knows your taste better than you.

@KoopaTheGamer True and I hope they fix it. But I think it's a bit too late in the development cycle to make the game look appealing.

The visuals are drab and the gameplay is weightless. I can't say for certain but if feels like increasing the scope and making the game open world gave less time for the developers to polish the game.

I won't be surprised if it's a disappointment when it releases.

Great article. If you hadn't pointed out what that symbol meant, all of us would be fumbling in the dark.

@AdamNovice I'll let you know that stubbed my toe today because of Sony.

Damn you, Sony!

Look, it doesn't take a genius to know that any organization thrives when it has two leaders.

Go ahead, name a country that doesn't have two presidents. A boat that sets sail without two captains. Where would Catholicism be without the popes

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Unnecessary Remasters.

@DennisReynolds That's a fair assessment too. But the developers know the console specs, it's partly on them to create a game that runs at least decently on one that's owned by over 60 million people.

@DennisReynolds Sure. I won't pay for the developers incompetence.

Your logic is terrible. Yes, let me spend £700 because of one poorly optimised game.
What a terrible excuse to justify you advertising the PS5 Pro.

It's not a case for the pro, it just shows how horrible Capcom is at optimising their games. Dragon's Dogma 2 was the same.
