WhoderMan

He's right and should take it further. We should all be absolutely critical of everything we read and be able to make our own conclusions.

The reviewers defending themselves is kind of pathetic to my eyes. They are just manufacturing drama from what he said.

They think that there aren't many open world fantasy games?!

I predict no game on disc, no multiplayer and $50.

What are they gonna charge for this without multiplayer?

Loved Control. Really hope there is a physical disc version cause I am old school.

Not a real big fan of the characters' looks to be honest. But the environments and monsters look great.

I would appreciate some free downloadable different heads for some of the characters... lol

@VanguardKaiser I forgot about Einhander! Bushido Blade 1 and 2 might be a neat throwback as well.

Come on Vagrant Story Remake!!!

I think that this should be a new article every year. The comments go back to 2018. I don't think that is great for discussion. Just my 2 cents. Carry on.

My backlog is enormous since I keep collecting physical copies and haven't played or finished as much in a while. I feel my mood shifting a bit and am getting back to playing again, finally.

I did recently finish the story of MGS Delta and Space Marine 2. Started (and loving!) AstroBot. After that I want to move onto other GotY winners like BG3 and Expedition 33.

And I need to sprinkle smaller games in between the big ones so probably some retro styled titles.

I loved The Sexy Brutale and wish that Cavalier Games was doing something else.

It would make more money if it sold more... and it would do that if it was a dollar. 10 dollars is not worth it to me in any way. I wouldn't have spent 10 bucks on it when it was brand new in arcades (although I admit $10 was worth way more then).

If Sony bought Remedy and just let them do their thing with a little less stress, that'd be cool.

Maybe make FBC free with basic PS Plus.

The comments for this are out of control. Going back to 2022 at least.

In the future, I hope that can we get a new article of release dates so comments are more relevant.

Based on the TTRPG books that they've released, I personally think that this has some of the best worldbuilding in a new IP that I have seen in a long while! Hope it is great!

Just categorize games on budget. The industry's naming conventions are kinda dumb (AA vs. AAAA for example).

Best Low Budget (A)
Best Mid Budget (AA)
Best High Budget (AAA)
Best Ridiculous Budget (AAAA)
BEST LUDICROUS BUDGET (AAAAA)

$10 or £10 only gets you 3 days of early access and an "irridescent pack?"

That seems high.

Honestly, I felt that the art style came from an out of touch, super expensive marketing team. No a bunch of indie creatives with a huge pedgree.

The gameplay is probably fine and free is great for some people. Personally, I dislike how free gams get monetized and feel psychologiacally manipulative.

Also, I hope it is an actual game on an actual disc. MS can eff off with their game key discs.

I hope that this is so bad it's good... but that's not a lotta hope.

Cool. Now release Keeper for PS5!

I don't wanna spoil anything but the name "Carcosa" definitely has some implications.

Hmmm. I still feel burned by Anthem. And was looking forward to Knights of the Old Republic so gonna wait to see more of this.

But Anthem's marketing was full of lies and bs (in my opinion) so I'm not willing to trust anything about this one until it is out.

@Sweetz well that's a heck of an answer. Thanks!

Genuine question... why do people dislike Aspyr? I thought that the Soul Reaver and Tomb Raider remasters were well received.

@LifeGirl I came here to say this! Lol

Or maybe it will be a remaster of Golden Axe Warrior (Sega Master System Legend of Zelda clone) in HD-2D! Probably noone wants that, hahaha.

I think that some of y'll forget that kids and children exist.

The game looks totally fine. Could be simple fun for parents/uncles/aunts to play with the kiddos.

If the team had enough faith in the project to basically redo it on their own then good luck to them! I hope it finds success.

What is the price?

Nevermind. $15 US.

@Axelay71 Off-topic... but I always wanted to get a copy of axelay for the SNES. Looked awesome!

On-topic... I have been looking forward to Neon Inferno and think it looks great.

Really looking forward to a new Legacy of Kain or Soul Reaver game. Hopfully, that is happening.

@symmetrian Yes, that's true. We live in an age where there are more high quality games and other entertainment than ever before. And many of them take up a tremendous amount of time. You've got to pick and choose how you want to spend your limited allotment of time and money.

If this game works for you and others then that's great. As I mentioned, when I first saw it, I thought it looked cool. It was only after finding out that it is free to play that I lost almost all interest. Free to play with live service kills it for me, personally.

@get2sammyb well, when I first saw trailers for it, it kinda looked like Chinese Witcher and I was intrigued. As it turns out, I have no interest in a free to play, live service game. Those tend towards trying to become the only game you play.

The only one I've played like that was Destiny and I bounced hard from it after a while. So yeah, I guess that I just wish it was a different game.

I'm just curious how others look at this. To me, if I could buy the game on disc for $60 with 0 microtransactions and everything was unlockable in-game, then I would have ben more interested.

But free with what I beieve is a psychological trap/manipulation means I have no interest at all.

To be fair, I aready have a ton of stuff on my backlog, so it starts to get easier to say no to something.

I was hoping to see Adventures of Elliot: Millennium Tales information or a demo announced for ps5.

There are elements to QA work that the AI will not provide. Difficulty assessments and general feedback on fun, etc. Plus, it likely won't design its own test plan. This may be a useful thing for AI to do, but only in service to real, human testers and QA.

I'm an old guy and the AI is what it is. It would be cool if they patched in some optional changes, but providing the games in their original state is what was promised. Making the AI easier could be simple or it could be a ton of work. Not sure, but it could be as simple as adding a delay to when it reads player input.

But what really seems egregious, is that as far as I know, you can't invite a friend to play online. That is literally the only thing I wanted to do with online play.

I honestly like both and would prefer the original remaster be packaged along with a new Remake.

But are they going to release the dlc promised such as horde mode, seasonal content and hitman content?

For all I know,Horde mode is out and they are gonna count Arcadia as seasonal content.

They're going to re-release the whole trilogy on PS6.

And because I'm a dumdum, if it comes in a cool slipcase at a reasonable price, I'd likely get it.

I sincerely hope that they take the time that they need to make combat great.

@hisownsidekick

Thanks for the info! I have RE Origins Collection (1&0 Remake/remaster doublepack for PS4). I also have the remakes of 2 and 3 for PS5.

Haven't played it yet, but if the story is complete, then just move onto the next game. Maybe a more ninja-y game or something totally different for PS6.

@hisownsidekick since you seem to e educated on this... I have remakes/remasters of 0, 1, 2 and 3. When in those 4 games should I play 0, please?

May have to buy it on a deep sale to see how bad it really is!

What about the promised dlc?

I'll be trying it for myself. If it is short enough and interesting enough, it could be the kind of thing you replay every other year or so around Halloween.

The art is great, but 4 hours long and $25 isn't gonna do it for a lot of customers.

Still hoping for a Dragon's Crown 2... and 3.

Depends what constitutes a new game. I buy a lot of old games that are still sealed and "new."

I don't know if Remedy wants to be bought, but I think that they would make a great addition to Sony's first party studios.

Don't forget about this!
