@For-Kier Are you doing the blue exclamation point quests? Because I think generally the main story missions are quite good.

@nomither6 Not when I'm playing lmao

@Fluberuper Ooooooooooooooh.

@rjejr Just to be clear it's not really kart racing, more like Twisted Metal I guess. Racing with combat aspects.

You're progressing well, just need to upgrade your Tycoon Level a bit to get Chiz for free.

Not sure what you mean about Chaos?

@Oram77 Hah! v2.0!

@RawnDawn Patch notes say improved controller experience so hopefully that makes a big difference once 1.1 drops.

Completely agree the menus suck.

Absolutely insane first update. They cooked, as the kids say.

lmao I've never heard of this

@Dragon83 If you read the article this actually bypasses your password, passkey, 2FA, etc

@themightyant Yeah I agree it's a tricky one because I can see how they need to keep the customer service actually useful and as seamless as possible for those who genuinely need it.

But I wonder, for example, should you be able to change your email or disable 2FA without further steps?

There definitely are gaping holes here which I think could (and should) feasibly be closed.

@rjejr I didn't mean to haha, but you can enter it on the homepage.

@rjejr But at least you got to see the cool timeline.

@UltimateOtaku91 It's quite a graphically intensive page so that might be why it doesn't work on certain phones/browsers.

@Rich33 Good idea for a poll!

@DrVenture69 I miss fighting for leaderboard places like that. For me, I spent ages trying to break into the Sonic Adventure leaderboards on the Dreamcast.

Since they've become more universal, I haven't had the same passion for them.

@Oram77 That's impressive

@RoomWithaMoose That's an interesting idea, I'll look into what SwitchUp is doing. I've not seen that.

Thanks for sharing.

@4fold Thanks, I'm glad you found it useful. Like you acknowledged it is tough to balance doing this properly with all the new releases, but I think it's 100% something we should work on and try to figure out.

I'm glad we were able to revisit this one, and hopefully there'll be opportunities to do this for some other games in the future.

@nessisonett Nope, it's something we'd like to do more of for live service games or titles that change dramatically like this one has.

I already did this for Zenless Zone Zero, for example.

As I mentioned above, reviews are a weird thing where they can very quickly get outdated and we need to have a better way to respond and represent that.

@Oram77 It's definitely something we'd like to do more.

Reviews are a weird thing because they reflect a product as it existed upon release, but often that product can change dramatically, be it through live service support or heavy patching.

I'm glad we were able to revisit this one!

@shonenjump86 You need to get a copy now!

@bazchillin From PlayStation's perspective the ecosystem is their business.

The business model collapses if they aren't getting people through the door on the PS Store.

Exclusives aren't the only reason, but they do help provide a compelling entry point for their console.

Metrics are a bit different for Microsoft because their poor hardware sales, Game Pass, and the fact they bought two historically multiformat publishers.

I'm really sold on all the tycoon/simulation aspects in this game. That's the part I'm most looking forward to, more than the "RPG bit".

@AdamNovice Well because… Now they’re in this situation with 800 devs, an extraction shooter no one’s playing, and a “flagship” franchise they’ve just told the world will be dead next month.

I genuinely don’t understand. Even if D3 got greenlit tomorrow — which I agree is unlikely because of how much it would cost, itself an insane thing to say — then it wouldn’t be finished until, what, 2031? 2032?

It’s madness lol.

Feel bad for those losing their jobs first and foremost.

With that said, my initial thought when the D2 news broke earlier was: how do you kill off your big game without having its successor ready to go?

D3 should be almost done; the fact they’re not even started on it yet is truly insane.

I have no idea why Sony bought this dev. Genuinely.

@Gbarsotini @Hundred_Hand_Slap Haha so cool!

@wildcat_kickz I hope you'll Come Out and Play the new Crazy Taxi when it releases.

IT'S (ALMOST) TIMEEEE

@rjejr That's a cool collection!

@rjejr That's cool that you own the original! I was just wondering what it might be worth in 2026.

@Oram77 I dunno. They say they will start "incubating" their new games; maybe they'll be ready by PS7.

I don't really follow Destiny much but I feel like it's crazy they're announcing this without a new game on the horizon.

It's going to be, what, five or six years before Destiny 3 comes out?

Updated with social media accounts.

Haha, whatever works I guess. Fair play.

@8th_Observer That's the way to do it

It's weird that this exists, but at least the series is moving in the right direction?

@J-Dubs Good spot.

@ExoZeo I'm in!

@RBMango It's possible, yes. Either that or Summer Game Fest.

@Oram77 Agreed, the 12-month option has always been the better deal (even more so now).

But like I said in the article, that's exactly why I think they're doing that. Encourage players to commit, instead of buying one-off subs here or there.

Nothing here yet...

@dskatter Okay, and that was the reviewer's opinion. I haven't played any of the Dragon Age games so I can't comment.

@Dman10 Actually Saros is a lot more accessible and I think one of the things Returnal players don't like about it.

But they were a bit trapped here IMO. They had to make it more accessible to get a wider audience, but it was always going to feel "less special" to those who persevered and overcome the original.

Tricky.

@RBMango I think it's as simple as: the game cost a fortune to make and there's no margin for error anymore. They have to be successful.

I think one factor here is that the sequels take so long to make. I think people were more accepting of "iterative" sequels when they took two years to come out on the PS3; now you're waiting five to six years for the same results.

Don't know what the solution is; I'm not sure there is one.

@themightyant Yes, in the US it's 2% ahead. Europe is bringing it down because it's become so expensive here.

Yeah kinda not surprising on consoles. Hopefully the software/accessories sales are good.

@INeedGoodGraphics No need to apologise!

@Sakai But Marathon is a critically acclaimed game that may not be meeting expectations but is still pulling 20 times the daily concurrent players of Spellcasters Chronicles.

Although I'd broadly agree Marathon does speak to a larger discussion where having an 82 Metacritic is not even enough anymore.

@Voltan Rush home!!!

Let's goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
