I don't care about ragebait that streamers and youtubers use to pump up their view count. The vast majority of players will make an account and consider it a slight annoyance

Curious if this is going to have the same clunky co-op restrictions as World. Looks like it might, which would be a hilariously stubborn move. Either way this is going to be incredible

A thrilling glimpse of MHW and Astro looked excellent. A little bummed there won't be Astro PSVR2 content. Concord is not my thing but at least it had style

TBH ragebait and review bombing is not newsworthy or interesting to me, Push Square. This is the main gaming site I visit because you guys tend to resist these topics

@TruestoryYep Fallout 4 is Citizen Kane or Mozart or Tolstoy compared to Starfield

Please just stop screwing up Fallout: London you jerks

Also stop working on Starfield for the love of Christ

Prey was extremely great, Fallout and TES wish they used environments, art, and writing half as well as that wonderful game. Hopefully Arkane Lyon can carry the torch

@KundaliniRising333 It isn't, I play on my PS5 with all my PC friends and it works fine, the crying+lying associated with gaming these days is embarrassing!!

I loved CotM, sorry to hear this

Pure ass-covering BS from Howard, who knows his style of micromanaging a small-ish team makes no financial sense for the Fallout IP's new owner.

Microsoft has a duty to its shareholders to get a new dev on a multiplatform Fallout game ASAP.

To me it seems like this was a Sony issue given how they had to butcher the Store UI to make it work

wow, they fixed it! i take back all my complaining. lol.

Sony and Bethesda working hard to ensure that I use Steam / play a Capcom game instead

@DennisReynolds My understanding is MS can't do anything to Fallout without Todd's approval. Expect Fallout 5 in the mid-2030s using the Starfield engine along with a couple of mobile games. Screw Todd Howard

@Anke Yeah, if you owned it via PS Plus Collection you were unable to buy the $5 standard version before the $20 PS5 version became available.

If I bother with FO4 again, I'll find a cheap key for a PC version in the hopes that the London mod gets sorted out.

Thanks for writing about this! The "PS4 | Standard Edition" game info in the store says you're entitled to the PS5 version, and the original announcement said "all players," so I'm still clinging to a shred of hope they'll open it to Collection/Essential users. I paid $99 for Starfail so this really is the absolute least they could do

@Buckeye4Life2015 Only if you subscribe to Extra/Premium. If you got it via PS Plus Collection you aren't getting it. It sucks

Really disappointing that they didn't make it clear in advance that PS Plus Collection/Essential are stuck with a PS4-only version. But I guess disappointing is par for the course with BGS

@gonzilla Their Discord says you get it if you're an Extra subscriber. Looks like they are asking people who have the game via PS Plus Collection or PS Plus Essential to pay up, even if you paid for all the DLC.

I'll just focus on FO1/2/3 when I need a fix. I was thinking about diving into 76 but I am just so sick of Bethesda after Starfield and now this

@Snoopzster People on discord and reddit are saying Sony support has confirmed this is a bug on their end and it should be fixed later today. Hope it's true

Bummer, I came to FO4 very late, I have the PS Plus version but paid for all the DLCs.

Microsoft has GOT to find a way to force Todd to allow someone to continue the series. Insane amounts of money being left on the table due to one has-been's preciousness

Fallout 3 with an HD textures mod

@species Fallout 1. 4 gets a bad rap tho

KCD is a mediocre Skyrim clone. I respect what they tried to do with the realism but the gameplay was supbar. I suspect this will be more of the same

If this studio can work on two games at once, Bethesda should really be able to get Fallout 5 out before the 2032 U.S. election

I mean the extra points, "monthly picks" etc.

The thing where you don't get PS Stars points when you buy a big game on its release day instead of 1-3 weeks later is stupid

Taking a break after too much MHW, HD2, and DD2 Jan-Mar

I actually find these far more annoying than the Dragon's Dogma fake YouTuber scandal. Super Credits are hard to collect without an exploit-y farming technique and you need them to spend medals on the latest content.

@UltimateOtaku91 After TGA they hinted very strongly the next batch of info would be SGF so people didn't expect it as part of the 20th anniversary stuff. I suspect it will be a gameplay trailer and Ryozo Q&A followed by a longer capcom video on YouTube. Really hoping the Q1 2025 rumors are true!

@UltimateOtaku91 Geoff Keighley is getting the MHWi deep dive at Summer Game Fest in June

@UltimateOtaku91 Based on Miyazaki's latest comment I no longer believe anything BB-related is happening

I am ready to be hurt again

I was excited by the reveal, but I can't see myself playing this unless it has a fresh combat system and new storylines. I've been pretty busy with this year's releases (HD2, 7R2, DD2) and next year figures to be busier

This game is less broken at launch than:

Helldivers 2 (my current GOTY nevertheless)
Elden Ring (was god-awful on most PCs)
Baldur's Gate 3 (same issue with framerate in cities but much worse)

This game has more ambitious/better graphics than the 3 titles listed above. The outrage is baffling

@ErrantRob The vitriol around this game is mostly about building an audience on YouTube & other socials via ragebait

@gipsojo I would say the DD2 writing is mostly solid, but I played through almost all of Starfield so perhaps my bar has been set below the floor

It's a super special game despite its many faults. It scratches the itch for a great open world title that I thought Starfield would address last fall. 9 for me

We want PS Studios reveals, not press releases that are written to keep employees from leaving

IMO leave RT on and embrace the jank.

Turning off RT probably won't help much, the framerate gets choppy in the cities on a high-end PC with everything turned down to PS2 settings

@dark_knightmare2 The map is never empty or boring. At just about any point there seems to be a fork in the road and a way to go up a hill or down into a cave or over to a large monster to fight. Itsuno & Co. have rather miraculously made an open world map that isn't giant and empty like Zelda, Horizon, and especially Elden Ring. If they had tightened up the quests and recorded more dialogue lines a la BG3 this'd be a 10/10 or close to it.

Plus, if you're Monster Hunter person, it's fun to get a taste of what mining, gathering, or smashing in a toppled enemy's weak point will look like when the series makes it to native 4K on the PS6.

It's a weird one, but I'm still pretty addicted a week later. It has janky Bethesda quest issues at times, the dialogue repetition is atrocious, the enemy spawns are too dense, and it can be exasperating.

And yet — Capcom has built a better mousetrap here. This is the best open world exploration ever; the camera position and the terrain elevation really work, it's awesome. The fast travel limitations are perfect, too. I'd like to see games like Horizon/Elden Ring/Zelda follow suit.

The DF argument that the clock speed is too low to move the needle is compelling. If I didn't have a PC I would probably upgrade, but as it stands I can settle for GTA as-is

I love Ashen and will probably buy this upon release

Why are they doing this odd complex ***** when the PS5 UI lacks basic social stuff like a trophy feed

If Todd isn't retiring or being "promoted" we should expect Starfield levels of delay and disappointment w/r/t TES and Fallout

What the game has going for it is the best open world exploration experience ever. Full stop. The map is a marvel, there always seems to be alternative paths available and there never seems to be a dull moment. It's a step forward from Elden Ring, Zelda, RDR2, Horizon, Witcher, etc.

@Frmknst Nowhere near enough lines of dialogue, hard to see how they released it like this
