I played the original FF7 the first time in 2016 and thought it was just alright, mainly because of how it aged gameplay-wise
I enjoyed Remake + Rebirth way more than the original (havent beaten Rebirth yet though) and I'm sure people who have no nostalgia for the original will probably enjoy Remake + Rebirth + the third game way more than the original
Are there open world games that run at a higher resolution in performance mode on PS5? Yes. Does that mean it has "poor visuals" as some claim? God no! I think it looks fine in performance mode
People who think it has poor visuals should never play a Switch game or they will have a heart attack
@breakneck I actually stopped playing Monster Hunter Stories 2 on Switch because of that since the framerate was somewhere between 20-40fps all the time which made me dizzy
I get what he's saying but that being said I still use fast traveling in games like BotW, ER or TotK despite those games having good and fun exploration imo

Re: Reaction: What Is Happening to the Video Games Industry and Why Are There So Many Layoffs?
Because they try to chase trends like live service and put way to much money into games that turn out bad
And way to much focus on graphics/graphical fidality even though in reality most people don't care as much about them as the internet likes to think

Re: PS Plus Premium's Cloud Streaming Is Much, Much Better Than You Think
Doesn't matter how good it is as long as my town refuses to improve the internet infrastructure

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?
Got my copy already yesterday and took a week off from work. I'm more than ready
Re: You've Made It This Far, You Don't Need to Watch Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PS5 Launch Trailer
@Rob_230 I guess it's more about "Our game is so big/has so much to offer we need to ship it on two discs"
Re: You've Made It This Far, You Don't Need to Watch Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PS5 Launch Trailer
@Martijn87 Let me guess: ProfasiaGaming?
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's PS5 Disc Labels Are Wrong in Japan, Asia
Literally unplayable
(if you insert the wrong disc)
Re: 900 PlayStation Employees Laid Off, London Studio Closed
Is there any developer/publisher who hadn't had to lay off employees lately except Nintendo?
Hope they'll find a new job soon
Re: Mini Review: Pentiment (PS5) - A Slow-Burning 16th-Century Murder Mystery
"Not for everyone"
Could be said about every game

@Arnna He/She says under a review
Re: Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (PS5) - Strong Sequel Seeks a New Direction
94 on metacritic based on 63 reviews right now for anyone curious
Can't wait til the 29th
Re: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Out for PS5, PS4 on 21st June 2024
Looking forward to it
Just sucks that it releases the very same day as SMT5:V. For some reason games I'm looking forward to keep releasing at the same time in 2024
Re: Souls-Like Crab Game Another Crab's Treasure Set for PS5, Out in April
Looks like a cash crab to me
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PS5 Demo Patch Available Now
@Jayslow I know that it was always announced as a staggered release but I think that's the first time I've ever seen a staggered release for a demo
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PS5 Demo Patch Available Now
Am I the only who thinks it's kinda weird that there's a patch + content update for a demo?
Anyway I'll just wait for the game to release next week (hope I'll be able to finish P3R til then)
Re: Could SMT 5: Vengeance Be the Long-Awaited PS5, PS4 Port?
Played through it on Switch (got all endings) and really enjoyed it but the framerate and resolution certainly was something else
Would love to replay that game on more powerful hardware
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Unlikely to Be Capcom's Last $70 Game
@breakneck I actually stopped playing Monster Hunter Stories 2 on Switch because of that since the framerate was somewhere between 20-40fps all the time which made me dizzy
Re: Sony Predicts Slide in PS5 Sales with No Major Existing IPs Planned Before March 2025
Nintendo needs to release their next console soon cause that way at least someone of the Big 3 puts out games
Re: Single Player Games with Definitive Endings Are Still Very Important, Says Stellar Blade Dev
But EA said no one wants single player games anymore
Re: Interview: Shift Up on PS5's Highly Promising Stellar Blade
"But the important part is that these are all acquirable in-game without any additional purchases."
That sadly became very rare nowadays, I wish more devs/publishers would do that
Re: Persona 3 Reload Is Atlus' Fastest Selling Game Ever
Releasing on multiple plattforms simultaniously certainly did help
I wonder how fast it would have reached one million sales if it released on Switch as well
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About All of the Xbox Multiplatform Rumours?
Tbh there aren't any XBox games I really would want to play. Doesn't mean they are bad, they just don't appeal to me

Re: Poll: Will You Be Watching the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth State of Play?
No, I'll buy it anyway + the SoP is after midnight here
Re: Elden Ring Is Allegedly Getting a Smartphone Adaptation
One of the best games of all time (imo) being turned into a gacha mobile game
Thx, Tencent...
Re: Microsoft Has Apparently Been Stocking Up on PS5 Devkits as Xbox Pivots
@CharlieChooChoo True but better than nothing
Re: Microsoft Has Apparently Been Stocking Up on PS5 Devkits as Xbox Pivots
@Valkyrian Not sure if Sony losing competition is a good thing for PS gamers
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth?
"I haven't beaten it yet because this is a massive game and I work a full time job" out of 10
Re: Rumour: A PS5 Remake of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Is Possibly on the Cards
@somnambulance In case of Nintendo I at least can understand it cause they probably save the big, new stuff for their next console
Re: SEGA Congratulates Itself in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth on PS5, PS4
Funny, saw that "creative and unique" line just yesterday myself
Immediately had to think of that "Obama gives himself a medal" meme
Re: Rumour: A New PlayStation Handheld Console Reportedly in the Works
@Sanquine What about Spider-Man 2? Final Fantasy 16?
(I agree though that this isn't much after 3 years)
Re: PS5 Exclusive Stellar Blade Dated for 26th April on PS5
Way sooner than I thought
First half of 2024 really is packed, at list for me
Re: Another PlayStation State of Play Broadcast Announced for Next Week, Featuring Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Actually it's news I want to miss
No point watching a SoP dedicated to one single game that launches 3 weeks later imo
Re: Persona 3 Reload (PS5) - A Stunning Remake of a Classic RPG, Polished to Near Perfection
@rawzeku "Even with some not so great changes (removing fatigue, adding more teleports etc)"
Those are good changes imo but yeah I agree, they should make stuff like that optional
Re: State of Play Announced, Covering More Than 15 PS5, PSVR2 Games
Looking forward to Stellar Blade
edit: Just a shame that the SoP is once again at a bad time for europeans
Re: Rumour: Dragon's Dogma 2 Runs at 30fps on PS5
@AK4tywill When the CPU is the limiting factor lowering the resolution won't help
Re: Incoming Action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink Gets a Really Great Launch Trailer
Curious about the reviews since the game got delayed a lot
Hope it's good
Re: Final Fantasy 7's Tifa in Tekken 8? Harada Wants You All to Chill Out
@get2sammyb If Stellar Blade gets delayed more they'd probably end up adding her to Tekken before her game even releases lol
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth?
Played it for 8h so far and I'm really enjoying it, as expected from the series
Re: Persona 3 Reload Really Is a Gorgeous Remake in First 50 Mins of Uncut Gameplay
I'm excited for the game but it will have to wait til after LAD:IW and FF7R-2
To many amazing, massive JRPGs at once
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Director Says Travel Isn't Boring, Your Game Is
I get what he's saying but that being said I still use fast traveling in games like BotW, ER or TotK despite those games having good and fun exploration imo
Re: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (PS5) - The Best Yakuza Game Ever Made
Played Yakuza 7 and Lost Judgment within the last 2 month and I'm really excited for this game. Guess I'm in a Yakuza fever right now
Re: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (PS5) - The Best Yakuza Game Ever Made
@Ninjadeath2023 It's a shady move from Sega but tbh most people won't care and therefore for them it won't be a con
Re: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Opening Movie Depicts a Day in the Life of Ichiban
@Nekomichu Same, I of course don't like that practise but it's not like it affects my first playthrough (obviously)
Re: Video: The Last Of Us 2 PS5 vs PS4 Graphics Comparison
I have to admit, that's actually a difference like night and night
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 on PS Plus Is Probably Never Going to Happen
Unlike most Ubisoft games BG3 actually is a game worth paying for
Re: You Should Get 'Comfortable' with Not Owning Your Games, Suggests Ubisoft Exec
I don't want to own Ubisoft games anyway
Re: Yes, You Can Play PS5 Games Inside Sony's Electric Car
@gpimlott Woudn't it make more sense to put the screen on the back of the front seat then instead of the dashboard?
Re: Yes, You Can Play PS5 Games Inside Sony's Electric Car
But why would I need to be able to play video games in my car?
