I played it for a second time this winter and got the platinum. I was going to hold off the second playthrough since i heard the DLC would come out early this year, but i couldnt hold myself. I will definitely jump back in for the DLC when it drops. Such a gem of a game!
The fact that Pearl Abyss is confident enough to send the game to Digital Foundry for analazys before launch gets me real hopeful. The reason why they've only showed PC footage should be because thats where it looks best. I've gone from feeling "this is never gonna release in a good state" to "I'm friggin ready"
@tangyzesty I think it can be a strategy from Pearl Abyss to not show any ps5 footage. When the Embargo lifts maybe next week(?), and they know that i works flawless on consoles. The reviews are gonna show it and people are gonna get even more hyped and buy the game day 1, regardless of the review as long as its runs great. It's just my theory though but i am really rooting for this game!
If this game plays well on the pro and poorly on the base ps5 and gets great reviews, I might consider to upgrade.. but for now I just pray for a miracle
It looks like some of the footage in the video was from PS5 actually: 07:55 and then again 08:15 min into the video. Lets hope its optimized! It looks dope
I hope you can tune down the weird wind animation in the game. The foliage and trees seems to be going through a tornado season! It looks really weird. And maybe we can tune down the particle effects as well, it's all over the place. Overall its obviously looks great, hoping this could be the next big thing in open world games
This game never interested me. Fighting with sticks and casting spells? I did that in the woods when i was a kid. I was also a bit to old when the books and movies came out, so i can't appreciate the IP. I grew up with LOTR.
I was curious why there was so many comments on this article🤔 Did not expect walking into this kindergarden brawl. The games looks great an the voice actor is a great choice. Happy holidays!
It's great, so good! I've played it two times now since 2.0 and Phantom Liberty, i didn't touch it before. Sometimes i just start it up and visits my apartments, have dates with Panam and cruise the streets in my insane car collection, so immersive!
@Mostik You really should, it's great! the first is a bit of a drag, you can feel the old age, but the story is great, and it sets up the second game, that's when it really shines!
I think the problem is that Rockstar don't communicate with it's costumers, so speculations is all we have, wich then turn to dissapointment when we're wrong. Everybody wonder what their plans are for old and new games, but are met with silence.
@Mostik Thanks mate! Indeed we have. I'm currently playing Mass effect legendary edition, it's my first time playing mass effect, what a rare gem it is!
I started playing it after the 2.0 update and the release of phantom liberty. I have played it two times now with over 250 hours. One of my favorite open world games, such a beautiful game.
@Uromastryx I always take this approach in open world games, do a lot of sidestuff, uppgrade, push the story a bit, and then explore again:) I dont get people how do the story first, and the do the exploration. When the credits roll the game is over for me, I always make sure the last mission is the last thing to do.
@StitchJones Maybe it's a very polite bear that doesn't what to be rude and kill someone whose having to talk to strangers in a middle of a fight Haha. Weird. It's the same in numerous games where you do a stealth mission "sneak past the guards to get to that door" kind of missions. They see you, a fight breaks out, but you can still go to the door, press the button to trigger the cutscene and everything is cool from there. Like the guards are thinking "dangit, he got to the door, well nothing we can do about it now" To be fair though, some games barricade the door after entering.
@StitchJones Yes, I always feel bad for doing that, but the game lets you do it without consequense and no questions asked. it's a bit weird to be honest
@guacguacboo I have been practicing on the guys on the wanted posters. The game doesn't really punish you if you die, you just start over. Learning by doing works best for me. Happy hunting
Ive been playing for 20 hours now on a base ps5 with japaenese voices. It's an 10/10 for me. Everything is a step over Thsushima, graphics, gameplay, combat, exploration, maybe the map was better in Tsushima(felt easier to travel through). One thing i kinda dont like is how easy it is to fast travel, becasuse how compressed the map is with a lot of objectives scatter, you can easily fast travel anywhere, anytime, with zero loadingtime. I know its optional, but im lazy and its convenient, on the other hand if you decide to ride to your next objective, you will almost certanly get sidetracked by some new exciting objective, wich will steal your focus(just on more bamboo stand, oh a yellow bird! looks there´s a hot spring, what whas i doing again?) But all in all, a great game!
I would totally go back if they released it. It is without a doubt the best gaming experience i've had. But it is a nightmare to play the ps4 version with 30 fps on a big tv. once I experienced 60 fps it has been impossible to go back.
@DennisReynolds I see where you coming from. I thought i would climb the whole mountian but insted just went through a crack in the mountain and came out on top. I havent invested enough time in it to understand the size of the map yet. But definitely a good point!
@Rob_230 Oh good to hear! Overall it is a really polished and beautiful world. I Just wished i had more time on my hands to experience it, but i guess i have to go to work also
@DennisReynolds What issues did you experienced? I had on where i would call my horse, it appeared then just ran away in the distance with no chance of catching it. After a while i could call it again and it would do the same thing, It was funny at first, looked lika a race car blasting off. But a quick fast travel seemed to solve it.
I have been holding this game off, mostly because the price havent dropped since launch and i am waiting on a sale. Not because im cheap or dont have the money, but when the game dropped i was already stacked with games to play. But maybe the time is now! Or maybe hope for a sale in december
Nice! i love this management kind of city builder games. I've played a lot of them on pc back in the day and it's the only thing i miss on PC gaming. I am currently playing age of empires 2 on playstation and the controlls actually feels great, did'nt think it was possible without mouse and keyboard. So i hope this also plays well!
I haven't played any of the metal gear games. I skipped PS2 and PS3 and mainly played PC under that period. I hear a lot of games from tha era are classics, including mass effect and the early resident evil games for example. So when a remake like this comes along it's great for us who didn't get to enjoy them, and everyone else for that matter:)
