Just started playing it last night , good god this game looks good , i spent more time taking screenshots than playing the game 😂 kind of want it to win game of the year now, the attention to detail is out of this world , jaw droppingly good.
Ugh not this crap again , absolutely terrible game, I despise it, it gave me stomach ache its that bad , the true definition of a walking simulator , awful just awful.
@UltimateOtaku91 yeah its superb , I wonder if any other studios outside of Sony, have asked can they use it, but changed their mind when Sony asked for some sort of timed exclusive deal , id love to see KCD3 running on the decima engine.
@Jrs1 nothing compared to roblox my kids are banned from it , its a paedo paradise , I didnt have time to vet 100s of lobby's , 65 percent of them are very shady , so they are now banned from using that tripe, its just nintendo games they mainly play now and astrobot, I wish Sony never gave permission for that garbage to appear on ps , i really don't know what changed their minds, id vet the ps store for free to get rid of this stain on gaming.
@Johnnycide I've found I'm putting more and more games on story mode lately , i just haven't got the patience anymore , its just far more enjoyable for me , ive been moving tainted grail down for the bosses and back up for the world enemies and I'm having a great time.
@IntrepidWombat I'm really bad at parrying and dodging in games , but if you listen to the audio and visual hints I find it a lot easier , for example a lot enemies make a ping sound before they attack ,and your companions will tell you if you should parry, its just learning attacks and when to pause , there isn't that many variations , I just found it a lot easier than any dodge, parry mechanic in other games.
@somnambulance i remember when boris announced we was going into a second lockdown , I was elated , people slam rishi sunak ,but he saved a hell of a lot of businesses with that furlough scheme, people seemed to be more pleasant when you was out and about ,passing strangers on the street was always greeted with a smile and a knowing nod 😁
@somnambulance it may sound odd but I loved lockdown, I was furloughed with full pay , loved taking sunny walks to the park in the morning with nothing but the birds for company , we will never see the like again, wonder how many wish they could go back and do it again , maybe appreciate all that free time more.
I saw two different gameplay clips off death stranding 2 , the first was the earthquake one which looked fantastic , bit of combat which looked far improved, then the second one , which consisted of sam falling everywhere , it gave me ptsd from the first game , day one purchase for me 😂
@somnambulance i agree the first kcd combat was clunky ,but the second game was much much better , more refined and easier to pull off epic moves, just need to level up, im no combat master , im terrible at souls games, but if I can do it anyone can.
@Ravix yeah i noticed the 22 days to rescue family and thought nah that's not for me. Then he stated its not a timer but a resource, what does that even mean, is it automatic quest fail if you don't complete the quest on time?
@ErrantRob I was loving the alters until they all killed me , its always the same with these resource management games for me , i really enjoy them up to the point, where I get overwhelmed by things to do, and everything goes to crap 😂
@AhmadSumadi I thought it was great , sure it has some extremely cringey forced dialogue, that has no reason to be in a game about dragons and wizards , but the meat of the game was solid , most characters where great , the ending was epic , shame it won't get a sequel.
@graymamba brotherhood is fantastic , he also did the horror anthology film , necronomicon with Jeffrey combs as lovecraft and the late great, david warner, also great which has aged surprisingly well , with some good practical effects.
@ShogunRok thanks for tainted grail 😁 at least it was recognised , its a great game , bugs and crashes galore mind you , which are gradually being fixed i might add , but its excellent.
1 kcd2 2 clair obscur 3 tainted grail All great games and all made by indie devs , im torn between clair and kcd2 for my game of the year though , ive gotta hand it to kcd2 though, its superb.
Are they ever going to learn there lesson , why do they think the ps4 was so successful, single player games, so get back to doing that , idiots, anyone know what happened to that rumoured fantasy game from naughty dog years ago, there was concept art leaked , it had knights , dragons and a forest , think there was a knight sat leaning on a tree, why can't we have that.
What did they,expect xbox gamers don't buy games ,they wait for game pass, they'll be lucky to sell half a million , i actually liked 16 but it did become a bit of a slog at the end , the boss battles where epic though, don't know why they don't go back to the turn based formula in my opinion, its not done expedition 33 any harm.
Didn't one of the devs say they were done making crappy games , i think silent hill 2 was a massive boost to their confidence , hopefully this will be the game to put them truly on the map, I do keep calling them blooper though , what exactly is a bloober
I'll be mostly playing The Alters , brilliant game, although I'm finding it quite upsetting for personal reasons , AA games have been superb this year.
All my sympathy has gone out of the window for these devs , they've tried to sell a car with no wheels then issue an apology , they knew it was a broken mess and thought we will just get as much money as we can , why didnt they just delay it ,until they could have at the very least, a playable product.
Never owned a switch my kids have they love them, I bought myself and my daughter a switch 2 at launch , its a really nice bit of kit , the launch games for me at least are a bit meh, I bought fast fusion which is superb , wipeout clone without the guns , got breath of the wild as well, not really played it much as I've been busy with tainted grail ,with not owning a switch the sales on the Nintendo store are a bit daunting, anyone got any suggestions , im a rpg guy mainly ,but I like anything if its got good gameplay.
@Max_the_German how so , if they didnt pay billions for these games they would still come to ps5 , xbox would be on its arse if it wasnt for playstation owners buying their games,they know game pass isn't sustainable,its only a matter of time before these games are available on switch 2 that'll be where the real money is.
I don't know whether to despise or feel sorry for devs when they pull this crap, they will be gamers to they will know their game is broken and yet release it anyway , make some money and hopefully patch it to a playable state ,anyway I'll help them out in a few weeks by buying it off amazon for 12.99 😁
@Frmknst probably the same reason grown men cried, when oblivion remastered got released, nostalgia is a powerfull thing , its not the games usually,but the memories of the time associated with it.happier times for many , free from the stress of life today, thoughts of people that are no longer with us, theres nothing more powerful.

Re: Microsoft Rivals PSVR2 with Meta Quest 3S Xbox Headset
@Jrs1 yeah you can do that , done it myself , its a massive faff and some songs are completely out of sync, which kind of defeats the object.
