Re: Preview: I Think Pragmata Could Be PS5's Best Shooter Yet

It’s cool and I’ll buy it day one most likely but it’s one gimmick isn’t going to be enough for me especially with a trite story and average level design. Capcom has entered the rarified air of a Rockstar,ND,Fromsoftware etc where s**t other games would be hit for in reviews gets a pass because of pedigree and being beloved.

@datamonkey do you not play Fortnite,COD,Apex Legends or any of the numerous gacha games where skins routinely cost 25 and you can spend way more than that pulling for characters in gachas. So yes that actually is decent value compared to other games. You also didn’t have to spend double you had to get the five pack but luckily that’s getting fixed

@jFug nah Destiny 2 was still doing great for the first few years until they wrapped up the story with the Final Shape and even than the game is over a decade old and still pulls in respectable numbers. Marathon is looking like it might hit and we know they’ve started preliminary work on Destiny 3 so I feel like overall the Bungie acquisition has been fine to good

@Godot25 those margins def played a part but the biggest reason they went multiplat is because their console sales were bad and with gamepass they weren’t making money on their games and now their console sales are atrocious . They simply don’t have the ecosystem to support exclusives and the Xbox brand has like absolutely no mindshare with the casuals and with the rumored 1000 plus Xbox branded pc coming which will be a niche within a niche there is no universe where they backtrack on exclusives so yes I believe it’s def a can’t put the genie back in the bottle situation

@Godot25 sony porting some of their games like two years later to pc and even then they’ve slowed down on releases to MS spending millions in the past almost two years setting up their teams and pipeline to be the biggest third party publisher is absolutely,massively different and is a can’t put the genie back in the bottle situation. They aren’t going back to exclusives when they have a minuscule ecosystem that don’t pay for games. Like do people want studios to close and thousands to lose their jobs just so they can say they have exclusive smh

@lazymike MS hasn’t been Jack ***** to Sony in like a decade. They have more important competition in Nintendo,Valve and PC in general,F2P games,mobile,etc. MS is never walking back on exclusives you don’t spend millions in the last almost two years getting your pipeline and teams in order to be the biggest third party publisher in gaming to just say sike we’re taking those ip back especially in an ecosystem that has utterly collapsed and have shown they don’t buy games thanks to gamepass

Re: PS5's Retro God of War Game Gets the Worst Reviews in the Series

dark_knightmare2

The user reviews are completely different and which I align with. This is a very well made metroidvania that might not be doing anything different but it does everything that it needs to do as a metroidvania good or better especially the level design and secrets and that’s all I ask for in a metroidvania. I will say though in no universe is this a freaking 69 it’s at least an 8. Like freaking Possessor(s) has a higher score and that game is nowhere near as good a metroidvania as this which just goes to show how worthless reviews really are in the end
