Re: PS5 Sales Sensation Black Myth: Wukong Gets Its First PS Store Discount

@Steeleye50 I agree, you always find one that clicks in the end. Previously only difficult games I would play would Fallen Order, but since PS Plus Extra catalogue, I tried games like BloodBorne. I understand not everybody has the time or patience due to other commitments, but for me I slowly got use to learning the enemy and boss patterns and fell in love with the brutal nature of souls games. That game has opened my up to play games like Nioh 1 and 2, Demon Soul Remake, Sekiro and similar games like Returnal.

Re: These Are All the Games from the Xbox Showcase Confirmed for PS5

WafflingHearts

Not going to lie, XBOX’s showcase was top tier, games after games with mix of cinematic and gameplay. PlayStation needs the competition from XBOX, because Playstation has been complacent without it so far. Hard to say, but imo we wouldn’t have got stuff like ps plus extra or premium as quickly if we didn’t have Gamepass.

Re: Square Enix Layoffs Underway in US and Europe as Restructure Begins

@Vaako007 Haven’t played it yet but I heard the minigames were placed on the main story path. I can see why the developers wanted people to play the minigames (due to sinking so much time and resource into them), but some players may be frustrated if games artificially increase the playtime due to this and who only want to go through the story.

Re: Strategy Legend Jake Solomon Explains Where Marvel's Midnight Suns Went Wrong

WafflingHearts

FYI massive Firaxis apologist here, XCOM and XCOM 2 is in my all time top 10 games, so I was always going to play Midnight Suns. I can see the cards putting off perhaps casual comic book/Marvel fans, but if you play several hours into, you will rewarded with smart, ever-evolving gameplay with incredible rooster of Marvel heroes. The social stuff and dialogue is questionable, but nothing beats the feeling of Captain Marvel going Binary! Completed the story and enjoyed the 50+ hour journey. Currently on PS Plus Extra!

Re: New PS5 Firmware Update Available to Download Now

WafflingHearts

@sanderson72 Agreed. Although tbf the download speed is faster (if u have interns hard drive), I don’t understand why it can only download one at a time. When I download in rest mode, it would prioritise updates which I’ve paused (during active mode) and ignore my assigned queue which is weird.

Re: Reaction: What Is Happening to the Video Games Industry and Why Are There So Many Layoffs?

WafflingHearts

@Dragon83 TLoU part 1 and 2 are mostly done due to people wanting to play it after watching the tv show (tbf also improved accessibility features in part 1). Sony probably saw what happened to Witcher 3 when the Witcher tv series was released and made commercial sense to release an updated edition to those games. Similarly to the rumoured Gravity Rush remaster due to film coming out in the near future.

Re: Helldivers 2 (PS5) - The Best Co-Op Shooter on PS5

WafflingHearts

Love they were able to bring over the charm (e.g. propaganda-like comments by helldivers, directional inputs for strategems and computers) and tactical (e.g. reloads, deployment location etc) from the first to a bigger audience! Some people were concerned about the multiplayer direction that Sony was going to take moving forward, but I believe you should room for both single player and multiplayer focused games in the marketplace.

Re: PS Plus PS5, PS4 Games for March 2022 Are Available Now

WafflingHearts

FYI, be careful of downloading Ghost of Tsushima Legends! So I have the base Ghost of Tsushima on PS4, I went to add Ghost of Tsushima Legends on PS4 + PS5 from the PS Plus page. Now it turns out I won't be able to purchase the PS4 Upgrade of the Director's Cut on PS Store. I have spoke to Playstation customer support, they said I have to wait until the PS Plus membership expires and contact them again. My membership expires next January . I wish I wasn't that eager to redeem the games or Playstation warned us about duplicate copy (of part of a game).
