@RagnarLothbrok exactly this is my point. And it’s just one example of the terrible marketing strategy and their terrible business decisions since the Xbox one.

@Vaako007 not really. Both consoles offering nearly the same capabilities, with their own unique strengths and weaknesses.
For the main point is that Ms did such a crazy advertising with these 12 TF and it turned out as such a disappointment. Series is a terrible gen of consoles.
Name one game that is really shining on the series consoles. Even Sony has its issues this gen but it isn’t as far as terrible as with the series consoles.

After all it’s so funny that this was one of Microsoft’s main titles over years to hype the capabilities of the series consoles.
Turned out as such a limited game in terms its gameplay.

Pretty nice with the upgrade of the first game. Still have the ps4 disc laying around here

It’s so sad for the team. Hopefully the talented stuff will find new jobs as soon as possible.
Won’t support Mindseye neither…

Still a glimpse of hope for ps5 pro additions with this patch…

@Jrs1 feel free just to start it. The patch won’t bring any overwhelming changes. For sure some nice additions but that’s nothing that should hold you back from starting the game. If there are any new cosmetics for character creation you can change it also during your playthrough.

Nice support by Bend

@Splat due to CD Peoject Red there won’t be one. Still having small hopes to see some improvements…

Did some rounds of driving in GT7 and yes, the tiny stutters from time to time while driving fast in the corners, there it was mainly noticeable, are gone. Happy with the fix!

@CielloArc hmm this concrete fix has nothing really to do with that.

Bad news: it was and still is a Bethesda game

@Sergo we will see what will happen with the pro. For sure it’s more or less a niche system. The base model will have by far the largest userbase.
AC shadows got a really nice upgrade over the base model. At the end, what is fully utilized? That’s a pretty subjective thing. Also the pro is mainly CPU limited and it won’t do any kind of magic.
Nevertheless I’m also happy with my pro console. Huge fan of GT7 so these improvements alone made it for me

Nice
As always these updates can not contain any huge changes all the time. These are often security related updates and that’s fine.
Are you blaming Apple and Co also for little security updates?

@Sergo why was Indiana Jones not optimized for the ps5? They did an amazing job with the series X version and ported it to the ps5 which has a similar architecture as the series x. Ps5 pro support was kind of disappointing but otherwise a nice optimised game.

@ButterySmooth30FPS the same over and over again with Phil and MS.
Only four games
Most of the time it’s exactly the opposite that happens.

MS: Hi-Fi Rush was such an amazing success, we need more of these AA games…

… closing the studio

Tango Gameworks couple of months later: Ok, let’s start again from here.

@L_Bosch I wouldn’t put too much hope into it.

@Bluemoon2008 negative Previews in magazines and online causing a lot of issues with such a release. They desperately trying to save the excitement for this game. I guess this won’t work…

We will see but honestly I don’t expect a outstanding good game due to the material we’ve seen so far.
It’s a lot of PR and marketing because of this former Rockstar producer but this alone doesn’t make a good game.
Would expect it will be somewhere around a 6/10. Might be ok in a sale and some further patches but that’s it.

@MasterChiefWiggum not heard about any kind of bugs. Probably the most noticeable one was one with the Resolution mode but that only occurred on the ps5 pro and was fixed quickly.

Waiting for a discount. Probably around the days of play? We‘ll see.
Love these type of games and would like to play it.

@Tr3mm0r with a price tag of 20 bucks?

@Ralizah Lightning is very good in the game, it’s just this „hero lightning“ in this game. Not my taste as well… nevertheless game looks incredible good.

@Ralizah that’s true. That’s an issue with the visuals but everything else is stunning.

It is. This is easily one of the top 3 best looking games on the market currently and the best on consoles. Full stop.

@Max_the_German fully agree but the average consumer might go for all these stickers.
Just look at all those Soundbars and even Tablets with Dolby/Atmos sticker etc.
For a music fan this hurts but it in general it gives a marketing feeling for quality and it seems to work for the average customer.

@Max_the_German it’s an unnecessary sticker… there might be an 8K output for the UI, Streaming services and some indie titles but nothing really major.
Due to the lack of 8K TVs and material it’s an unnecessary topic currently.

PSVR2 firmware update as well?

@SirMarshmallow uff Jedi Survivor… true! Arrgggh want to play it - now!

@darthvirgin I agree. The lack of infos before release is still very very strange here.
Let’s see. I will try it out as well after midnight.
Thrilled for the dlc.
So many games on my pile of shame… uff working on it xD

@rjejr many thanks for testing

@knowles2 probably that’s the case but there is still a lot of competition going on, even with a weak Xbox. I can understand not investing a ton of regular marketing money but you could at least work together with blogs and game media.
Horizon with its graphics is an absolutely showcase for consoles and even PC fans. Don’t understand to not use this to boost the Ps5 awareness even further because so many people complaining about the lack of visual stunning next gen titles.

@rjejr it’s just an accessibility option that won’t be active with the standard setting. No need to turn it on.
Could you spot the improved clouds in the base game with the patch installed?

@Beerheadgamer82 there seems to be an issue with the preload currently.
For me it worked exactly on midnight from Su/Mo (ps5 disc version)… for a friend also with the disc who tried it a day later it’s still not working. Hope they can fix this asap.
Nevertheless nothing to worry about because the dlc is „only“ around 16 gb… with a regular and good internet connection it won’t take long to download.

@neitan I would guess that the patch comes as well to the ps4 version with the accessibility options, probably a bit later. They’re focussing on the dlc launch for the moment, which is ps5 only.

@Beerheadgamer82 no the dlc is about 15-16 gb additional and doesnt come with such an game update.
Looking forward for the changelog of the patch and if they add the clouds to the base game as well.

I think it’s really strange what Sony is doing here.
It’s an exclusive dlc for a ps5 game and an absolutely visual showcase for the system… Sony so far haven’t done anything in terms of marketing. If they don’t want to spend money for marketing, for whatever reason, they could at least invite some gaming blogs to a presentation or send out review codes earlier.

I highly believe that the dlc will be great but it’s a very strange behavior from Sony. You could think that they want to hide something because the quality of the dlc isn’t that good… but I don’t think and hope so.

Looks like a F2P game

Hmm seems strange to me

Looking forward to it. Did the preload as well after midnight.
Excited to see the new Horizon 2 patch that will come for sure with the dlc and if they cart over the new cloud system to the base game.

@Futureshark ordered some from Hons VR - took only one week for the delivery to Germany.
Way better as with glasses under the headset.

News for Sony often bad and then revealed later. Bad news for Series L remaining just bad…

@Smash41 also 60 unlocked

Im ready
Preorder - done
Base game installed and patched - done
Let’s go for the preload on Monday 🔥

Sheesh really looking forward to it!

It will be so good to jump back into this beautiful game 🩷

Hahaha ok. This is getting interesting now 😅

For Witcher 3 I guess they definitely wanted to release it in 2022… it was ok but far away from being perfect.
The outer world is even worse
