The wardrobe menu has nothing with do with lag, in my experience.
When the selection cursor sometimes don't appear, you just have to click in and click out then you can navigate normally. Sometimes the cursor don't even move to the left panel, which suggest it's a controller navigation bug that needs to be ironed out.
@tameshiyaku
I always treated losing job and losing job opportunities are the same thing, whether it's from direct result of AI intervention.
Creative jobs are a murky territory, where you could see them using AI to automate certain procedural works, but then again the layoffs we seen so far, in my opinion, are just poor human resources management as the industry is entering workload automation whether it's from AI using machine-learning.
If the end justifies the means when everything was perfectly managed to the public eye, then there's nothing to be scrutinized or so we thought? π§
PSSR of course is created with efficiency in mind, even the workload it replaces doesn't fall into- replacing creative jobs category, I was just jesting about potential job opportunity lost by embracing AI by vocal non-supporters supporting PS5 Pro and ridicule the need of making another controversialized hearsay headline π
@Bluemoon2008
By presentation, I mean their story content not delivery. Some are in-game while some are on other platforms..
βγ €Every new version comes new characters with background stories, and their connection with all the casts and main story.
These characters look samey to the uneducated eyes, they certainly don't feel same when played with~ π€
γ €Most of the time these action rpgs rely on casting abilities and finding the right composition, that feels almost like you're solving the combat puzzle on the fly.
γ €Everyone's account experience may vary with what they have owned, but it's all about solving your own puzzle/journey. π§
Enjoying that in itself doesn't stop with one game, that's why there are choices and you can choose to do with another game. (treat it as New Game+, quite literally not conventionally)
Even if any of the them offer main content replayability, I'd doubt I'll go through the same motions again twice because I know some would not hit as hard as it used to..
So that's why we play them, as separate different experiences βΊοΈ
γ €
@rjejr Yea heheeh~ Just be a casual player like myself, by just doing the essentials and don't stress about missing some days or some rewards. Weight time-reward factor and decide how you choose to game βΊοΈ
If you don't enjoy the grind, it's okay to just find enjoyment elsewhere π

The presentation, music, and characters. They're constantly competing quality of life features among themselves that make it look like the same but eventually if you end up settle for only one, then one of them have essentially done their job~
Luckily this patch isn't exploration heavy and Itzli quest already 2/3 done if you've catched up to it. Starting Wuthering from scratch is much more daunting, but no pressure!

Not really their fault if they're came what they aim for and everyone else telling them better than nothing only AFTER knowing the results.
For all we know the game was probably in good shape at that point in time otherwise it's hard to think to make a speech based only on a vertical slice.
