Re: Control Dev Remedy Issues 'Profit Warning' Over Live Service Spin-Off FBC: Firebreak

Whilst I fully understand that people are buying less games and as a community here we do not represent the vast majority of people buying (or not buying) game.

I also appreciate that studios are trying to respond to this with multiplayer live service offerings as way to make money. They are welcome to spend their money and invest in whatever projects they want - but I do find it frustrating that it puts a studio making games I like in financial jeopardy for a type of game that has such a huge failure rate.

Even though Control was my favourite game on the PS4, I didn't even download this free offering.

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on Potential $80 PS5 Games?

I used to be excited and pre-order most games I wanted.

But I realised I was paying full price to beta test someone's partially finished & bug ridden games.

I now wait around 6 months and pay half the launch price, the game has more features, less bugs and there's usually a guide if I'm stuck.

I recently picked up Star Wars Outlaws cheap and whilst it was bobbins at launch, waiting 6 months gave me a much better experience and not at a premium price.

If games are going to be this expensive they need to launch in a lot better state than they do now.

Re: How to Transfer Data from PS5 to PS5 Pro

Would be useful to have a future article on how to a PS5 and PS5 Pro in the same household sharing digital content between the two machines (I passed my PS4 to my son and that was very easy), but these two machines being in the same family makes this process slightly different.

Re: Poll: Can a Game's Brutal Difficulty Put You Off Playing It?

I would love to experience the lore and worlds of a lot of these games (I made it just past the Taurus Demon in Dark Souls) but the sheer level of frustration of being knocked off ledges and losing everything just wasn't worth the hassle.

I'd love an easy option so I could just explore the worlds, which I know the fanbase hate the idea of, but adding an option for lightweights like me wouldn't impact their experiece of the game at all.
