They said this game was going to be aggressive but they've been rewarding it way too hard on the offense side.
They should have done the opposite and added Chicken(reversal of an attack reversal) to the game again. That and actually let players parry heat moves.
I get that they're trying to give us more leeway to sidestep spontaneous heat attacks after blocking with some of these other changes... but ultimately, we're just -playing- chicken with absurdly fast and high damaging auto combo at point blank. It makes far more sense to be able to parry some of it like we could with rage drives in T7. Has the potential to look incredibly fancy too.
I have absolutely no concerns with remakes or remasters happening when it comes to Playstation. Far more of an eventually than an "if" and a game gets checked off every time it happens.
Speaking of which, Bloodborne's anniversary is in 3 days... I would joke that we need to prepare for the outrage but it feels like that every day.
@zhoont I said it in the last article and I'm going to say it again.
If this game needs any warnings before playing, it's definitely going to be for trypophobia. None of us have played it but the signs are completely there. Just plants growing out of everything and you have ryukishi07 who is good at the vibe of getting underneath someone's skin.
They listed mostly very standard stuff for the series... and body horror has always been a thing... But this game already has some INSANE trypophobia going on.
Like I would genuinely warn someone about it.
They're -literally- trying to get under our skin with this one. Ryukishi07 can't freakin' help himself lol
@Matroska In response to others selling their PS5 for the PS5 Pro, I covered about 55% of my cost that way. You do not include what you originally spent for your first PS5 in that math because you are replacing your hardware. Only whats left as you'd pay nothing had it covered it all.
You're grossly undervaluing PS+ by only seeing it from the online angle and not mentioning the benefits. The service gives you monthly games, a library of other games to pick from that go across all 5 generations of Playstation, cloud streaming, and other features like cloud saving, startshare/shareplay, etc. Yeah, you're paying for the online but you're also getting access to bunch of games too. You also don't have to take the plunge into every new game day one. Wait for sales as it practically only takes up to a month these days with the flash sales. Also, they have discounts on plus renewals every now and then allowing you to loop years for cheaper than normal.
Also, just being real... I absolutely hate troubleshooting to play a game and people go through it all the time on PC. Making sure their controller works, g-sync, audio issues, you name it-- even with all that power. I love the idea of mods and what they add to games, but sometimes even getting those to work can take some tries. Heck, these days, mods are practically game fixes to brand NEW PC ports rather than old games and that shouldn't be the case. You shouldn't have to deal with problems on your end, the end the developer was supposed to handle, and sometimes even the service you're downloading from. Then there's the illegality of everything... which, while nothing new, leads to more troubleshooting with emulation somewhere down the line and it doesn't support the developers that are still around, especially pirating new games-- I could go all day and I think that's the point. It's a lot of reappearing hoops to jump through just to simply say:
"yeah, nearly everything is better*"
*when it works
Well it's more expensive than the PS4 Pro and most people are waiting for a newer, more taxing game to justify the purchase more. For me, I just like more power and I try to future proof potential issues as much as possible in the moment so it was simple... but overall, sticking with a regular PS5 is fine.
I don't even know why people keep saying $700 over and over for something optional when others go above and beyond for a potentially pricier graphics card like it's not optional. Especially now!
I have to say though, given how freaking LOUD the PS4 Pro was, I never wanted to upgrade faster. I didn't need to hear about a single freakin' game. The second they said it was backwards compatible and ran quieter, I was SOLD. Anyone putting up with that thing is a masochist. I even tried replacing my PS4 Pro with a brand new one rumored to be better and it made the same noise during it's first few minutes of Monster Hunter World & Nier: Automata. I'll never take quieter hardware for granted.
Been stressing the sales point forever now... but what pisses me off more than anything was how twisted the story of Sony's promotion over Gravity Rush was. Everyone says it wasn't enough when they went absolutely crazy with it!
Accolades/launch day trailer
They remastered the first game-- so TWO chances
2 part free animation(OVA) a month before release
Made an award winning commercial for Japan w/ a single
Crossover collab outfits later that year(Like Nier and PSO2)
E3 & TGS uploaded trailer with 2 special on-stage ads at TGS
On stage announcement at the last PSX a month before release
All of that not even counting how much money that probably went into making a giant sequel to a Vita game on consoles... And no one ever talks about Puppeteer. I'm amazed it was even mentioned here!
Nah, this actually makes sense. Horizon was a special case since they genuinely gave it to everyone for free.
Lets not get carried away here. They're simply avoiding double charging people who actually supported the game specifically at a higher price. Nothing shady about that at all.
I don't know why people don't think of the possibility of these remasters appearing on one of tiers of plus later too. Happened with the director cuts and TLOU.
We need to have a serious talk about how people were capitalizing on this by lying about the reason why it went down, claiming there was no way to play single player games offline, and screaming bloody murder once it was done.
There have been stuff such as DDoS attacks in this industry that have lasted longer and quite frankly, we moved on. Of course the issue this time is different and more on Sony but it's far from their worst situation. That would be when they got hacked in 2011. It was so bad that their compensation was something like: 3-6 months PS plus, 2 out of 13 or so games for free, a free theme, some service extensions if you could prove it was inaccessible for you, up to $2500 in reimbursement if your data was stolen, and you could even cancel your account and get your PSN wallet balance refunded if you didn't trust them after the incident. All that not including the public apology which happened at E3 and for the presses. I even heard they had food trucks and were giving out drinks for the people at E3.
This isn't nearly as crazy as that though. None of your personal data leaked, no outage for nearly a month... so some extra days of online service which was down makes sense.
Furthermore, the hypocrisy over the false claims that these guys have no games or absolutely everyone prefers single player games over multiplayer were exposed pretty badly. It didn't even take a quarter of a day before people were complaining and uploading videos like it was the worst thing on earth with instant assumptions... and had they actually preferred single player experiences, they would have them for scenarios like this. Its so bad that Gamestop is roasting them and even then you should have the loophole playing single player games you downloaded digitally. So many people got caught lacking. Even I'm curious to know how much physical game sales improved yesterday.
Controversies aside, I can respect the disappointment for those with big organized multiplayer plans, people who genuinely don't have a lot of time, just got in, etc... I know I'm ranting but you don't deserve to have your plans ruined.
@themightyant This with a BULLET. Had every last one of these games on their platform and even some with deals. That and their pursuit of developers in China(and now India too) in general really shined even more last year-- even outside of gacha/live service.
Most people aren't honest about this subject at all and it's why I liked how the player's choice/voice category at the Game Awards last year really kind of exposed how things have been lately. People may not have liked the finalist, but it was a grand representation of where the focus is in the industry right now.
And indeed. The single player experiences have not stopped. There's genuinely something for everyone still.
Really? We're not gonna talk about the Nier Outfits? Seriously!?
In any case, they've effectively ended the live service part everyone seems to hate so much and will just have it out in a more completed state. The next update allows FAR more customization with loadouts, modes, and passes that used to locked by time/special events. If the trailer was posted here, these details would be a lot clearer...
but I guess we "have" to be depressed for some reason even though the devs themselves put out a message with this news saying that they simply added everything they had planned and want everyone to have fun.
Which should be news to pretty much no one. Single player games is what they do.
Even if hypothetically they had a full year without a first party single player game or the previous announcement and Astro Bot... would you genuinely believe they wouldn't be working on some? We even know about some that are in the works already.
@MrHabushi That is entirely the point of social media and news sites like this. We learn a LOT about details early from different parts of the world-- but that chart was a visual guide that's extremely easy to understand... so why not report on it? This also doesn't explain why these sites didn't simply ask Sony as well. Like think about where we are right now! Forget getting info from out of the country, some regular people just called and got this clarification.
How very nice that people paid attention that those fit but conveniently didn't question the rest. Even with the different midsection on the console that everyone could see-- along with likelihood that something was going to be different since the thing is more powerful. For the record, you can't use PS4 slim cover on a PS4 Pro. For very similar reasons too! Imagine that. No outrage then too.
It was clarified over a month ago. People just choose not to report on it because it doesn't bring in traffic. It has been essentially nothing but blu-ray drives and $700 before now, aside from the anniversary version announcement... and now they're apparently making a big deal over a "no disc-drive included" icon on the PS5 Pro's box even though that's been on every digital only PS5 box. Whatever.... They probably should have made that take up half the box after how much they have to spell out things for everyone this year. I digress... I'm out.
@Korgon That's what I'M saying! Half the complaints everyone made when the PS5 Pro was announced was that they were showing off PS5 ports of PS4 games... and now people go straight into tossing vanilla PS4 titles in this thing.
Now, this IS something worthy to test out because it's definitely a feature Sony includes, but the irony of it all just too priceless. If it was that easy to make a huge difference, then flat out NO remasters/remakes would matter.
I'm more concerned with people truly convincing themselves that a Bloodborne port isn't happening more than anything though. Aside from the coping, they complain about these guys doing remakes/remasters all the time and think they'll magically skip this one. The 10th anniversary is literally next year! They host a LOT of Soulslike games too!
@MrHabushi So tell me... how does the platform selling the PS5 pros online have less credibility than everyone else? How do you magically ignore something that detailed from someone you're shelling out $700+ bucks too? Why are news sites going off distant size comparisons from pictures instead of taking something like that seriously? If a bunch of regular people could get confirmation by calling customer service over a month ago-- on top of noticing all these other details, why on earth didn't all of these sites do it? Heck, they even found out that it has a slightly different shape and venting system and exactly what plates work where.
Do you see any PS5 Pros in that minute ad showing off the Chroma Range? Didn't think so.
No, I'm through with giving people the benefit of the doubt this year, if not this gen. Happened with Helldivers 2 but NO ONE ever admits that the PSN requirement info was there both on the Steam page where you buy it and in-game to even play. That was entirely on the players and the devs for letting them in for so long-- because if they couldn't play, they could just refund it, ultimately preventing people from being too deep into the game and worrying about whatever PSN rules there were.
My point is that Sony has been clear and everyone is blinded by whatever goes viral in each story. Helldivers 2 got popular so no-one cared as long as they got in. PS5 Pro is $700 and doesn't include the disc-drive... and that's about all people cared to know, if not repeat ad nauseam. Suddenly, people out themselves on preparing for this thing and not even correctly.
I cannot believe people are just finding out about this now when they even put out a chart and mentioned this well in advan--
I take it back... This makes total sense. Everyone has been having knee-jerk reactions to it. No research what-so-ever. I even heard there were some articles reporting that they WERE supported without even looking into the stuff out there and had to backpedal. Like even some people that didn't know about the chart or the blog just called customer service and got an instant answer!
We must do better than this. It's already weird that this would even be a huge issue when people complained about the Pro even existing. Do people want it or not... because buying plates ahead of time for it sure sounds like interest to me.
Their TGS State of Plays are usually pretty damn good. It doesn't need to be a Showcase to be hype at all... but ON that note.. lately every time they DO have a show that people call disappointing, there's always something from them that comes out and takes off.
Furthermore... Its TGS month and most multiplatform games go to Sony's platform anyway. Instead of being stressed or even relying on single show, look forward to games you can play that will also be announced across the board. The first-party obsession is self-damaging when you lose sight of all the other games you could be playing.
There is literally no shortage of things to play and people are still complaining about the library and remasters.
The irony? Everyone has their double standards, like a Bloodborne Remaster or will buy games they had no interests in the first place during Playstation showcases like Helldivers 2.
Gravity Rush 2 deserves another chance, even after how hard they pushed promotions the first time around.
This article is sickening. Things are only possibly fine now that Nintendo does it? And just because they gave it a certain amount of time difference, it's praised?
First and foremost, NINTENDO ALREADY DID THIS BEFORE. It was the first Wii Shop which means Microsoft and Sony both have them beat out on the digital storefront in longevity.
Newsflash: Nintendo rarely gets any backlash that sticks for ANYTHING they do. The reason this comparison makes me sick to my stomach is because people are taking for GRANTED how nice it is to have a company CHANGE something when people complain. You don't GET that with Nintendo. Insulting the CEO of Playstation just because of his views does NOT change the fact that change STILL happened. I rather a guy own up to fact that they were wrong than be ignored forever! Even Microsoft has been pretty flexible to change when people complain. It hurts that folks are trying to turn that all on it's head out of fear, let alone just the idea that everyone will attack these guys WAY worse than Nintendo over just about anything.
Do folks even fathom how much content was ON PSN? Over 15 years of digital content... PS1/2 classic, 3, 4, V, P, Digital only games(including Minis too), movies, individual episodes, DLC, demos, trials, trailers, applications, and I'm sure I'm still missing SOMETHING. It's so much, I can barely keep track of what "I" own! Meanwhile, how much are you losing on Nintendo's end? How many times does it MAKE that you've lost some of that stuff on their end at that? I'm not giving Sony the OK to get rid of it, I'm just making sure you all realize how much there is manage here and it's still there. Even if it was JUST the games, its a lot! And I ALSO realize that folks want Sony to make it easier to access. I hear you.

I rather a guy own up to fact that they were wrong than be ignored forever! Even Microsoft has been pretty flexible to change when people complain. It hurts that folks are trying to turn that all on it's head out of fear, let alone just the idea that everyone will attack these guys WAY worse than Nintendo over just about anything.
Do folks even fathom how much content was ON PSN? Over 15 years of digital content... PS1/2 classic, 3, 4, V, P, Digital only games(including Minis too), movies, individual episodes, DLC, demos, trials, trailers, applications, and I'm sure I'm still missing SOMETHING. It's so much, I can barely keep track of what "I" own! Meanwhile, how much are you losing on Nintendo's end? How many times does it MAKE that you've lost some of that stuff on their end at that? I'm not giving Sony the OK to get rid of it, I'm just making sure you all realize how much there is manage here and it's still there. Even if it was JUST the games, its a lot! And I ALSO realize that folks want Sony to make it easier to access. I hear you.
