@The_Pixel_King Because the game is not being self-published in Japan like it is everywhere else. Someone is paying to make a physical edition that's why they are getting it.
Sept is a busy month and SoS is releasing right before that and then Phantom comes out and MK1 so I will probably have to wait until maybe holiday time to think about getting this.
Wow, 7 being second is impressive, I remember when it was announced a lot of people across different sites were upset because it was first-person view and had no "zombies". Glad to see it do so well.
@TheCollector316 Selling more copies still wouldn't have been sustainable even on PC if they had no business plan to monetize it. So where does the extra income come from on a live service game?
Nice to see Nickelodeon finally give these people a budget to work with, plus cross-play will definitely help with this one versus the last one that didn't have it at all.
@Shepherd_Tallon As I progressed and started getting more Eikons I started releasing certain Eikons are good for certain situations and boss fights actually pretty in-depth.
Considering its a departure from the turn-based or actually ATB system they have built the brand on I have a feeling they knew it was going to isolate some people and adjusted to that. IMO
@Sekijo I think we all wanted them to be competitive but we all would have liked to have seen them makes something original in-house not but up a developer or publisher to keep the sequels to franchises that already showed up Multiplatform.
The whole reason I haven't bought Outer Worlds is that I will never get to play a sequel.
We can say what we want about Ubi but they know scale when it comes to open world. Yes it will be flooded with mind-numbing things to do, but they know scale. D2 is a pretty good shooter so hopefully, those mechanics are in line similar.

@KaijuKaiser I don't have extra that's why I want to know how much it cost to buy the game.

Im still waiting on Legend of legaia and Tales of Destiny but I guess one can dream.
Re: You Can Now Buy PS Plus Premium Classics Tekken 2, Ridge Racer Type 4, More
@RadioHedgeFund Hmm that explains why Legend of Dragoon was free to download and me thinking they were giving the game away for free. lol

Re: It's Party Time! Steam Groans Under the Strain of Baldur's Gate 3's PC Launch
Sept is a busy month and SoS is releasing right before that and then Phantom comes out and MK1 so I will probably have to wait until maybe holiday time to think about getting this.
Re: Stunning PS5, PS4 Fighter Guilty Gear Strive Tops 2.5 Million Players
@Fighting_Game_Loser Did it though they were well over a 1 million before GP came into the picture.
Re: Persona 5 Tactica's Got Bangers and Baddies in Its Intense New Trailer
@Rob_230 Marketing deal Im even surprised it doesn't specify Steam but instead Windows. But I get what you mean though, something fishy going on.
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Dev Larian Studios Has No Interest in Being Acquired
I want to play this but feel like I will be overwhelmed as someone who has never played a DnD game before.
Re: Resident Evil 2 PS5, PS4 Remake Is Now the Series' Best-Selling Game
Wow, 7 being second is impressive, I remember when it was announced a lot of people across different sites were upset because it was first-person view and had no "zombies". Glad to see it do so well.

@Kriandis Yea ok
Re: Don't Worry, Activision Totally Has the Source Code for Those Awesome PS3 Transformers Games
This seemingly has nothing to do with Sony so why are we talking about it.

Re: Tower of Fantasy Debuts PS5, PS4 Exclusive Bonus Items
@Tomato_Goose From what I played on PC at the time its basically a multiplayer version of Genshin
Re: Dreams Live Service Ending as Media Molecule Couldn't Find a 'Sustainable Path'
@TheCollector316 Selling more copies still wouldn't have been sustainable even on PC if they had no business plan to monetize it. So where does the extra income come from on a live service game?
Re: Final Fantasy 14's Free PS5, PS4 Trial Expands to Include Stormblood
@PsBoxSwitchOwner Forever or until you make your first purchase, which then it is no longer free to play.
Re: Larian Employed Intimacy Coordinators to Aid in Developing Baldur's Gate 3's Sex Scenes
So these intimacy people are also familiar with bear sex?
Re: Monster Hunter Gets Its Mobile Spin-Off on 14th September
Is it a gacha-type game it's what I come to expect from most mobile games.

Re: Preview: Sony's Next Great First-Party Game Is Tren from Media Molecule
The painting caught me off guard, but very nice to see a different type of game come out.
Re: Diablo 4's Seasonal Battle Pass Doesn't Contain Enough Platinum to Buy Literally Anything
@Splat I've notice the best cosmetics seem to be geared toward the Necro class I played Druid the cosmetics suck lol
Re: Preview: Blue Protocol Might Be the Competition Genshin Impact Needs
@get2sammyb I suppose but from what I hear about Genshin the main draw is getting your favorite Waifu which seems different than this.
Re: Preview: Armored Core 6 Could Give Newer FromSoftware Fans Whiplash
@Nepp67 The older AC games you basically needed a spreadsheet to build your mech
Re: Preview: Armored Core 6 Could Give Newer FromSoftware Fans Whiplash
@Nepp67 Armored Core was difficult way before the souls games came along.
Re: Preview: Blue Protocol Might Be the Competition Genshin Impact Needs
Is Blue no longer an MMO because Genshin isn't so Im not sure what the similarities are except the look
Re: Square Enix Happy with Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Considers Them 'Extremely Strong'

Re: Square Enix Happy with Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Considers Them 'Extremely Strong'

Re: PS5 Sales Spike a Staggering 116% in Europe
@Sekijo I think we all wanted them to be competitive but we all would have liked to have seen them makes something original in-house not but up a developer or publisher to keep the sequels to franchises that already showed up Multiplatform.
The whole reason I haven't bought Outer Worlds is that I will never get to play a sequel.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws' PS5 Planets Will All Be Handcrafted and Feel Like a Journey
We can say what we want about Ubi but they know scale when it comes to open world. Yes it will be flooded with mind-numbing things to do, but they know scale. D2 is a pretty good shooter so hopefully, those mechanics are in line similar.
