I love everything Evil Dead but this game didn't do anything for me. Got a bunch of friends to try it when PSN+ dropped it but none of us could get into it. That's coming from people who enjoyed Dead By Daylight and other similar style games. Said that, I'm glad the servers will be online for those who still enjoy the game. Maybe we'll try it again before it fully goes offline.
I played D1 and D2 pretty hard for a while at launch but fell off a little bit before that big restructure for light levels and whatnot. I tried to play it again mainly for a PS Stars rewards some time back and while the shooting felt great, I was just confused by the game itself. It just didn't feel the same and made me wonder why I liked it for as long as I did. Even though it's no longer my thing, I hope whatever announcement this is, is good for Bungie and the community that still plays.
Are these reviews for the entire 2nd season or just the first 1 or 2 episodes? I thought it was coming out weekly but I'll take the entire season at once, too.
Released would be crazy. I could see announced this week or next but releasing is pretty big. Wonder if it would include all DLC stuff because I'd love to see Sheogorath again.
I had a physical copy of this game for the longest time but never got around to playing it. I finally did a couple months ago and loved the game however I don't see myself jumping back in even with the new content/upgrades. Maybe because it's still fresh for me but does sound like fun for those who are jumping back in.
I played my fair share of Gear's MP modes back in the day so I'm ok without it. Getting shotgun killed from half way across the map still doesn't sound like fun even today. As long as you can co-op the campaign, I'm good.
I remember going into whatever video game store it was back when I was 15 looking for a RPG when I stumbled upon Suikoden. I heard or knew nothing about the game and the original box art and packaging did nothing to really sell it but I took a gamble and very glad I did. The series has been good (for the most part) and even recently played Euyiden Chronicles Hundred Heroes which was well done as a spiritual successor. I'll be picking this up without a doubt; I just hope the potch trick in Suikoden 1 for guessing the dice returns.
Not everything needs to be involved in live service just like not everything needs a remake or a remaster. However, sometimes you do catch that lightning in a bottle and finding it is the hard part.
To be honest, watching someone else play has always been a thing; it was just a physical when we were younger. Showing my age here but someone would rent a video game for the weekend and we'd go over their house to watch. Sometimes it was only a single player game but we'd watch unless we wanted to rent/buy it ourselves. Now I'll only watch when it's a game I have a small interest in but have no desire to purchase or seeing if it would push me over the edge to buying. Or, as a youth sports coach, I'll watch a new season of CoD or Fortnite for a little just to stay in the loop when the kids talk about it.
@Czar_Khastik I don't recall it being that much more difficult ramping it up. I think some of the side stuff like the arena battles may be harder to complete but don't recall the story being problematic.
I haven't played a Dragon Age game since the very first one and I never completed it. Had a hard time staying involved/invested therefore I never played any sequels. That said, would this game bring someone like me back into the series? Sounds like there's a turn around from what it was.
@scoobdoo Same reviewer. I started playing this last night and while I'm still getting a feel for it, I could definitely jump in and kill some more time here.
Been reading it plays worse than the PS4 version at times along with other technical issues. If that is the case, just shows that not everything needs a remake, remaster, or redo.
In our gaming days where things get patched left and right for frame rate, bugs, glitches, etc; it should be a no brainer to get this fixed on the current PS5 models. Absolutely no need for someone to spend $700 on a future console to get a game to work as intended when it launched 6 months ago. This is an unacceptable solution.
This gives me a great idea to open a store of "attempts" - want this new limited edition PS5? I'll attempt to find it for a fee. I'll attempt to find that rare Pokemon card you want. I'll attempt to do your laundry. I'll attempt to get your wife pregnant. I'll attempt anything at Slacker's Attempts Store!
Seriously though, if you're buying this attempt, you need to be hit in the head with a tack hammer repeatedly.
Helldivers 2 is one of those things that just randomly worked out. Right price at the right time for launch. Not every game is going work out like this and for everyone trying to catch lighting in a bottle, sorry it's not going to happen. I'll keep an open mind about it for now but I have a feeling it's going to be Concord 2.
I used to have a lot of fun with this game then I'd save and unlock new warbonds only to have the weapons nerfed. It turned me off to keep playing but I'd still do a few rounds with friends here and there. I'm glad to see things are mostly back to where they belong and things look fun again. I'm eager to start back up.

Well as a remaster, I would hope you'd see some changes otherwise it's not a remaster. It would then be a port.
