I'll never understand this viewpoint. Why not include multiple difficulties while highlighting a developer's recommended difficulty level? That way as many people can play, and as many people as possible will buy the game.
Can't wait for this one, but I really wish Capcom would stop sidelining Jill. The last mainline game in which she was playable was Nemesis in 1999. Not counting the 2020 reimagining or Revelations.
I'm actually excited for this. I played Starfield at launch - back when I had gamepass and my Series X still worked - neither are the case anymore, so I am interested to see the various improvements that have been implemented since
How about Quake 4 playable on modern hardware? Remember, Xbox has owned id for a few years now and has all but ignored that game while releasing new versions of Quake 1 & 2.
@babybilly I realize that. Just thought it was odd to start teasing a new game, possibly taking attention away from the one they announced not too long ago. Stay snarky though 👍🏽
In my mind, the canon ending is the one where Arcadia Bay is saved. Chloe's fate in that scenario makes the ending much more powerful I think, but I'll definitely be seeing what this is all about.
I sure hope P6 is announced - it's been nearly 10 years since P5 released in Japan. Thinking back, I'm always amazed there was actually a PS3 version of that game.
@johncalmc To be fair, the suit you have to find at the beginning isn't "her" suit specifically, it's just "a" suit. I'm guessing whoever put her in the tank disposed of her clothes, but I just started the game. All said though, it's definitely not a game to be taken too seriously.
Good news. I hated how Youngblood completely skipped over the Nazis being overthrown in the US after so much momentum had been built up in The New Colossus.
@Netret0120 Glad to hear it. I beat it initially on 360, then PS4, but I haven't been able to get through it again on PS5. I'm so beyond ready for GTA VI at this point 🤣
Just started playing this a few weeks ago. I really love the atmosphere and setting so far, but the enemies seem a bit spongey. I'll definitely be trying out this difficulty once it's patched in.
I remember being ADDICTED to Game Dev Story back in the day, but I never really played anything else from Kairosoft. Had no idea they were releasing on PlayStation.
@get2sammyb You left out Tomb Raider Underworld, which was the last mainline entry in which Keeley Hawes voiced Lara. And on that note, it'd be nice if Deep Silver or THQ Nordic, or whoever the heck owns the Tomb Raider IP did a proper remaster of the Legend Trilogy - particularly Underworld, which is currently only playable on PS3 or backwards compatible on Xbox - considering that Catalyst is reportedly a follow-up to that game.
@Pat_trick Ethan Winters is one of my least favorite protagonists, up there with Ajay Ghale from Far Cry 4. Still annoyed he got two games back to back.
@PuppetMaster Leon definitely and probably Chris, but Jill hasn't been seen since Revelations, which was a side game and took place before 5 (I'm not counting the CG Alcatraz movie she was in). I feel like she, and Claire to a lesser extent, deserves a lead role in another game. The last mainline game where Jill was playable was Nemesis.
I bought a Legion Go S, Steam OS version with the Z1 extreme chip mainly to play Black Mesa...and the game crashes at the same point each time - monorail ride at the beginning, going into a larger area. This was my first and last foray into the portable PC space - at least with PS5, I know most games will at least be playable, if not at launch then with subsequent patches.
I really don't care either way about sprint. I just want a waypoint marker that can be activated whenever, because it is way too easy to get turned and lost in the various levels of that game.
@Cvantez Exactly. Seemed worth mentioning that their relationship is closer than - "used to be an advisor for Trump during the first term," which was already four years ago.
@TheArt Honestly that's one of my favorite things about Uncharted 4, how the shoulder strap is clearly visible when a rifle/long gun is on Nate's back, and then when holding it, the strap moves around as he does. Heck, when you get into the jeep, he even takes the gun off and sticks it next to the driver's seat. The level of detail in that game is truly impressive.
I don't like how the shotgun and submachine gun don't have a visible shoulder strap while mounted on the character's back. It may seem nitpicky, but that always irks me. Like, how is the gun staying there? Is their back magnetic?
@FullMetalWesker Exactly my point. 1 & 2 don't work in the same film because 2 takes place several days after 1. It was just bizarre to see STARS Alpha team landing at the Spencer Mansion around the same time that Claire shows up. In fact, it makes even less sense because the first half of 3 takes place before the 2 as well, but in the film, Jill is still inside the mansion, and Brad gets killed right off the bat in the helicopter.
I just want to see RE1 on its own properly turned into a film. Even a semi competent director could use the Spencer Mansion as a character in itself, and there's plenty of backstory involving what led to it becoming infested to help fill a 90 to 120 minute film.
@PuppetMaster I wasn't a fan of the RE3 remake because of the cut locations, and yeah, it seems like there's been nary a mention of Sheva since 2009. Honestly, I'd take any of the heroines over another Leon story. And it's wild that we got two Ethan Winters stories before anything with Rebecca, Claire, Sherry, etc
