Found it to be a blurry mess sadly. Worse than the previous Team Ninja game, whose name I forget, in fact seemed worse over all than said game and image quality far worse than Nioh 2 PS5.
@Gr8VngnzN4esAngr It would be so simple for them to just call Bluepoint and ask them to do a multiformat Bloodborne remaster, just mind blowing how they don't see it.
@Zeke68 Ah ok, shame. I just don't understand why it seems complicated to them to just get Bluepoint to do a remaster of BB and make it multiplatform? It's hardly a risk, it would sell millions and millions of copies... :S
Wukong was pretty bad on consoles tbh. Blurry or more blurry with input lag at 50fps, same with Rise, they're the exact type of game I like the most but didn't buy either because they both looked and felt so rough when I demo'd them.
They must have misunderstood, I'm pretty sure the speech would have been in their favour, "...a game that does not already exist.."
@Zeke68 There's a Digital Foundry interview with Bluepoint about the DS remaster, just after it came out, and in it they say they were working on another remaster when John asked them if they were going to work on their own game.
Whatever that was, it doesn't seem to have surfaced, maybe it was cancelled?
Bluepoint, who did the Demon Souls remaster, have been working on an undisclosed Sony Remaster since they finished DS. I saw the other day they're now working on a game of their own, so that suggests the remaster is done.
I'm not saying it was BB, but it just might have been, don't get your hopes up though.
@Nekomichu On PS5? It looks awful brother. On even a 55" screen it's messy. If they just use better AA, set it to 1440p, job done. It looks great on PC to be fair.
I don't think a settings fix type remaster is a waste of time. It's still probably in the top 5 of it's genre. It starts a little slow, but then it just gets better and better all the way to the end of the DLC's.
Hmmm, probably not. Though it's probably the best thing I played, though on the other hand, Dragons Dogma 2 is the only full price game I've even got at full price this year, nothing much else appealed to me for £70. Stellar Blade and Rise, I would like, but not for £70.
I've only played through the DLC once, probably missed a lot of cool stuff, but I've been playing Soulsbournes since DS1 and it's the best DLC by quite a huge margin. I didn't think anything would top The Old Hunters tbh.
No I interest tbh. So far it's been a bit of a dodgy generation. Few new games that appeal. Last full price game was Dragons Dogma, next will probably be Kingdom Come 2.
@Medic_alert I haven't paid full price yet and it's not because I can't afford it. I think the most I paid was £58 for Baldurs Gate 3.
I do have quite a few games that often retail at £70, but they would have been purchased heavily discounted.
They keep saying games haven't gone up in price, they hadn't, but the amount sold was going up by huge amounts.Some of these big companies will end up bankrupting themselves before long.
@MikeOrator I added it up a few months ago. Mostly Asus parts. You'd have to build it yourself or get lucky in a sale on a prebuilr, but it was a few £ over £800
@riceNpea They could have asked Bluepoint or similar to remaster Bloodborne/PC version and made millions upon millions, instead they gave us this, haha, idiots.
It's exactly where it deserves to be. Who did they think would pay for it? Whoever does Market Research for these companies needs to be permanently removed from the games industry.
@QBGaming12 It's defo much harder than GOW. In terms of difficulty it's easily souls level. There are modes to make it easier and harder though. Try the demo, the director said the game gets much harder, the boss run is easily around soulsbourne level.
The interface is pretty bad, I'm pretty sure the xbone could watch YT and you could defo snap in group chat to the side of the screen. These aren't complicated things to program.
I believe Larian offered Baldurs Gate 3 to MS Game Pass for £6,000,000 which MS refused as they didn't believe it would be a big deal, explains so much...
@Steel76 I thought it was OK, even good, but it's obvious a lot of people won't enjoy it, it it literally a weird RPG from over a decade ago.
I think the issue was, pretty much every youtuber hyped this up so much, too much and then by the time they actually got their hands on a preview it was too late to back down...
@dschons If you watch the official trailer, it looks pretty decent tbh, if you watch the footage they, bizarrely, released for state of play you'd think it was terrible.
@ear_wig it was a little slower than I expected, it was also a little harder tbh. I'm just playing through Spider Man now, on hard and I haven't died in over 14 hours, I died to to a mini boss in this..
It feels like shes takes a second to go through stationary to moving, plus I couldn't find the run button. IThe combat reminded me of Lies of P more than anything.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 559
POE 2 as Monk, really enjoying it, it's pretty much a isometric souls atm, like a squishy Faith build, huge AOE but I die in 3-4 hits.
Haven't played one of those games since Diablo 2. More interested in Druid but it's not out yet.

Re: Larian Studios Made a Staggering Amount of Money on Baldur's Gate 3
@naruball I can run it at max on laptop RTX2500 and id 12450H. It can just about handle 1440p. That's a pretty bad GPU for modern games.

Re: Fallout 4 Next Gen Version Is Out Now on PS5, Xbox, and PC
@Flyinghippoman They seem to have made the DLC free for the PS5 version too as I never purchased Nuka World, Todd Always Delivers.
It seems they've put the DLC on sale and then made it free and charged £15.99 for PS Plus users. Could be a bug re the 'free dlc'
Don't pay £15.99 buy a copy from CEX for £2.
Re: Over 1,500 PS5, PS4 Games Discounted in New PS Store Sale
@Tsushima It runs with uncapped fps, 30-60, though you can cap it to 30fps. If you've played and like subnautica, you'll probably love it.
Personally, I think it's great, tense and atmospheric defo unique. Maybe watch a few spoiler free revies, pretty sure Skillup reviewed it.
