They killed it, no pun intended. Even having played the game, I thoroughly enjoyed the death scene and the tweaks. I don't mind it. People will complain about how Joel died in the game, and people will complain about this. Can't please everyone. TV is a different media than gaming, and tweaks have to be made. It was still an all timer of an episode, and regardless, people will still be tuning in every week.
The VO's are pretty poor for this. The English accents are just awful, awkward and far too over-exaggerated to the point that it is forced. They should have consulted about this.
Divisive or not (definitely not @get2sammyb ), can we take a moment to applaud the devs for making a a much beloved ( ) character unlockable through incentives like beating the game?
They could have made a killing having the Green Ranger as DLC for a fiver or a tenner, knowing people would pay this.
But as a progression unlockable, this is a welcome move, so I fully applaud the devs and everyone involved with this game. I was definitely going to buy this regardless, but now, it'll be a day one buy for me
@Doctor_BK its okay to be wrong I respect your opinion, but I do disagree. I loved the game. For me, it was a masterpiece. I enjoyed HOW the story was told, but enjoyed TLOU1's story more. Everyone has their own opinion, and its good to have these discussions
@NightshadeNL you are the first person I've seen to comment about this. Made me think I was insane thinking about the comparisons between 2 different media forms portraying a creepy Scottish oil rig, so close to one another.
Or if you don't want to be spoiled, stay off social media/block out Life is Strange. $30 upgrade is slimy, but it is optional. Its easy to avoid spoilers, so its on the individual if they want to pay up. Businesses are gonna business at the end of the day.
Will definitely be dipping my toes into the DLC, but will definitely be waiting for a price drop. No doubt you'll be able to pick this up for maybe £12 at some point
@Kidfunkadelic83 genuinely.!!! The looks I was getting during the beach part of FF7 Rebirth with Beachwear Tifa. This will be much worse if she saw it haha
I don't understand the hype around Pentiment. I played it, and lost track how many times I fell asleep with my controller in my hand playing this game. So boring and unengaging.
Why do the tiles on the homepage for this article contain the woman from the Agni's Philosophy tech demo from 11 YEARS AGO??!! Nothing to do with this game....makes no sense
It would be good if Sony followed the Nintendo model to some extent for their first party titles.
Put the DLC/Expansions behind the subscription, but for these, put them behind the Premium Tier. As a business model, so many more people would subscribe if Burning Shores and other DLC/Ex, like Ghost of Tsushima Iki Island, were behind the Premium Tier. Just a thought.
@huyi Agreed. Been waiting for it to hit 50% off before buying. I think its worth it now. Always wait for the AC Season Passes to hit 50% off too before buying.

I would buy both of these without hesitation

Re: Random: U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris Potentially Linked to Shadowy Federal Bureau of Control
@LikelySatan the world was a far safer place when Trump was on charge. No threats from Russia, North Korea or China.
Re: Random: U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris Potentially Linked to Shadowy Federal Bureau of Control
@Migoshuro and so many far left conspiracy theorists believe the Trump assassination attempt was staged.....
Both sides have their loonies. Not everyone on the left or the right and conspiracy nuts.

Re: Stellar Blade Guide: A Full 100% Walkthrough
@get2sammyb No problem - weirdly, you're not the first person to say October. They confused April with October on the Kinda Funny review....
Re: Stellar Blade Guide: A Full 100% Walkthrough
@get2sammyb I think it should read April 2024 at the top, not October

@yeayeanaynay it's truly pathetic. Can't have a even debate when one side dictates what can or can't be said. Not an even debate then.

@Mostik I love an autopop too, but we don't get one with this. Because there are slightly different trophies for it. Can crack it out in 90 mins
Re: What Remains of Edith Finch PS5 Upgrade Now Free For Those with PS4 Version via PS Plus
@Stevemalkpus it does have a PS5 platinum. Trophy list is based on the Xbox achievement list this time
