@Grim455 I think problem is gaming music lost some strong melodies. Everything is epic, orchestral almost classical music without face. Like Netflix copy/paste melodies...
Try to play Doom Eternal OST. Yes, you remember Meathook track, but rest is... differently same.
Even if I'm huge music fan I just cannot remember any game music from recent years. It's quite shame last absolutely memorable music was Diablo 1 - Tristram and Act 3. I remember dozens of music from ZX Spectrum, Nintendo, PC DOS era ...but Playstation music is forgetable for me. Maybe one song from Final Fantasy, but cannot say which ...and that's sad.
@Boxmonkey You don't have "GeekFit" ??? Actually it's training bike with dynamo, so you have to pedal electricity for your console... Hell what a relief you don't have to spurt like on Le Mans to run PS5...
@Gabrielmpf Same here. I also play more old games.
I just don't like new style where games are too dark, half black, using 3-4 colors. Also everything is "souls-like"... I'm missing good old heroes saving beauties in distress, where attacks were doing damage - not just visual firework, best armor was peice of steel - not halloween paper costume, bosses were dangerous - not just overpowered one-hit killers.
Also Sony can improve installs like games from disc are installing on background while playing intro, or so.
Custom folders on home screen is the most missing feature.
Shovel ware control on PS Store.
Emulators of older Playstations - dear god it's so simple to make it!
Custom themes
CD player return...
...there is so much they can do to improve machine and mainly operating system...
@Stickleman Ohh it pretty affects a lot of people. Imagine I bought Helldivers 2. Install of cca 40GB took me around 10 minutes. But download of additional 39GB took me more than 2 hours. I had about 2 hours of free time, so it took me whole session just to watch download bar and then grande finale was shutting down PS5. It's been 14 days now and I still don't have another time for PS5. So instead of (hypotheticaly) playing Helldivers 2 for hour and half, I have no fun with it yet. Just frustration of idiotic downloading.
(I know it's online game so downloadable updates are expected, but imagine any single player game, that can be easily put whole on disc.)
I've put AC series aside during Valhalla. I still love first AC games with deep modern story, parkour outside and inside famous buildings, stealth missions and DNA filling. Assassins creed franchise has lost everything of this and transformed into running simulator with weird combat.
Why? Just why? ...??? I won't buy incomplete software on disc. So meaningless product... I still don't understand why MS is desperate to NOT release game working from disc ??? Do they understand it's worthless product?
Let's say it forward. PS5 era is trash, and if PS6 won't be compatible with PS4 and PS5 I'm out. I have huge PS2/PS3/PS4/PS5 and Switch backlog, so there is simply no time for newer games (or 1000th remaster).
There is not more good releases than once per year or two, so, in majority, I buy something very old heavily discounted from time to time. But I have so huge backlog, that buying something new is meaningless. And as mentioned, games are so long right now that finishing it takes me half a year or more.
Actually.... I remember Cyberpunk 2077 release... and history proves the longer is game in development the lower is result. Not always, but it happens too much...
@Max_the_German You hit the nail. This generation is single player killer. Third party is trying to save the day, but Sony itself has failed miserably.
I like very colorful games, so right now I have still butterflies in stomach when I run Divinity Original Sin. I pretty like Elden Ring graphics also. I never focused on graphics so much. It is rather about style. Speaking about PS5 clearly, Final Fantasy 16 was pretty. I don't know if I had so bad hand, or if it's some trend, but games I bought (Atomic Heart, Mortal Shell, Necromunda, Diablo 4) all have weird bland graphics with pitch black shadows, so it looks like textures are missing. I still didn't hit any PS5 game with some "wow" graphics. But as I mentioned before, I don't care about graphics, rather entertaining (and I'm not entertained when I cannot see nothing more that black in shadows)
@Blauwe_Chimay I know only Necrophagist. Ohh and Impaled Nazarene, Carcass, Septicflesh, Alienation Mental, Groinchurn ...and heeeeeyyyy Last Days of Humanity πππ

Sorry, I like the Switch version. Game is much more "visible". PS5 version is too dark so lots of details just disappear in blackness.
