@Fight_Teza_Fight I would expect Final Fantasy type games are a bit of a niche product in the UK at least, especially at this time of year when up against the fifas, cods, mario karts etc.
@C25CLOUD The worst culprits are the youtube goons who like to show off the physical collection, all with the shrink wraps still on, never played and buy the digital anyway lol
@dschons My last time in the "dam" i only remember the bulldog cafe, green coloured madeira cake and a lady playing ping pong in an unusual fashion in some club. Good times tho.
@Titntin I mean there are great examples of the pixel genre but the market feels flooded with them now (same with rougelikes/lites/etc), the thing is once you change to sprites you attract the "omg it looks like a mobile flash game" haha you just cant win
@Hindenburg Its not them though its the general gamers consensus that they can magically predict the next console revision in line just because of whats gone before (ps4 - ps4 pro) only one case of a pro iteration of a sony console in their entire history (slims dont count as they are mainly asthetic)
@Hindenburg Don't want to burn your hopes like the Hindenburg but there has been no mention whatsoever about a PS5 Pro (unless its hiding in a shipping container along with the elusive Switch Pro)
I bought a series s purely as a gamepass and back compatible and emulation machine (ps2 specifically since sony dont care about that stuff). For those reasons its a good machine, doesnt replace my PS5 as a main console though, more of a side dish
Bought this when it came out and kinda regretted it, the game is good but seriously needs a price cut or put on subscription to get the multiplayer numbers up.
Ive played 1080p games on my samsung neo qled 55 and they look fine, maybe just getting older but i tend to think a lot of gamers see themselves as extended family members of Digital Foundry nowadays.
