Re: The Last of Us TV Show Might Be Over After Season 3

SoulsBourne128

Not sure if I'm excited. The first season, while not perfect, was genuinely pretty good and was a good example of video game adaptations done right.

Then the second season came in, and the best compliment I could give it is that it made people who hated the The Last of Us part 2 actually appreciate the game due to some of the baffling decisions that were made. It's like they wanted the season to appeal to both the fans and the non-fans, only to end up a mess compared to the first season.

Re: Promising Chinese God of War Game Will Be 'Optimised for PS5 in Collaboration with Sony'

@PuppetMaster good points although I wonder if they main reason why you mentioned Evotinction is because I was the first to bring it up here cause barely anyone even knew it even released, including myself until a year after its release lol still impressed it got decent reviews and I definitely think it deserves it, though part of why I never mentioned it as an example is because it's more of a stealth game than an action game.

I do find it a big shame that it's so far the only latest China Hero Project game right now to not focus on flashy action. I guess there's the weird sci-fi fantasy mix Convallaria, which I had my eye on since 2019, but given the recent fallout that happened some weeks ago with Loongforce devs, I'm not sure if that game will ever come out unless they find a different publisher or developer.

@kailun those are already franchises made by the same developers, so of course they'd all look the aame and honestly, whay else can you evolve in a soccer game lol (big reason why I'm never that big on sport games) Not that I'm trying to defend them but atleast with Japanese developers, they don't always have to keep their games in the same setting of Japan all the time lol atleast give us something like A.I. Limit or even Lost Soul Aside (for all its flaws) where they didn't have to be set in a China-centric setting.

Re: 'It Has the Power to Enrich the Creative World': Level-5 Boss All-In on Generative AI

I do agree that, if used correctly, AI can be of good use as a tool just as long it doesn't steal from other people's works. Or you know, be used as a lazy shortcut like in Black Ops 7.

That aside, it's surprising to see AI supporters here in the comments. Tehn again, I recall some of the PS Star awards use AI art so I shouldn't be surprised that Playstation community has a couple of those guys lol

Re: Top-Notch Metroidvania F.I.S.T. Gets a PS5 Prequel in Zoopunk

To this day, it still feels like a wasted opportunity for Sony on not buying this studio as I would love TiGames to become their first chinese first party studios.

Regardless, this game still needs some polishing but shows promise. At the very least it doesn't seem to be another souls-like action game lol

Re: Poll: How Would You Rate State of Play for November 2025?

SoulsBourne128

Compared to the state of play back in summer, it felt pretty disappointing. Some of these felt more like reminders than actual new updates (MH Wilds being the biggest offender). Not to mention the lack of China Hero or even Team Asobi, and Marvel Tokon's spot here was pointless. All we got was a stage that deconfirmed a lot of the X-Men characters lol it's kinda unfortunate how the only "oh crap" moments I got from the state were two IDW characters coming to Sonic Crossworlds and Artorias coming to Nightreign.

Wandering Sword looks promising though.

Re: State of Play Announced for 11th November, Focus on Japanese PS5 Games

SoulsBourne128

Inb4 people starting posting about Bloodborne Remaster copium even though it's highly unlikely that it'll happen unfortunately lol would be cool to see Team Asobi's new project though. If we might get something from China Hero too, I hope they'll announce an update for Convalleria as it's their second China Hero game that they'll publish and we haven't gotten any big news from it since 2022.

Re: Forgotten PS5, PC Game Lost Soul Aside Still Being Patched and Optimised

SoulsBourne128

I'm still very much looking forward for China Hero Project's new games (Loulan looks sick as hell) and I have to give credit to the devs for not inmediately giving up on the game unlike some other devs, but it's hard to call CHP "excellent" atm when Sony themselves kinda threw the main star of the program under the bus all because it didn't get high marks. I said it before but I really think they should have dropped the price to $40 instead of placing a $60-$70 price tag on it to soften the reception a bit. I still hope Sony learns their lessons for Convalleria, as that's their second project that they'll publish and so far looks promising (love me some co-op shooters) but we haven't heard much about it since 2022 I believe.
