Re: Just Like the Game, The Last of Us 2's TV Adaptation Is Getting Review Bombed

I finally got around to finishing season 1, and it left a lot to be desired for me personally. The overall story is the same, but so many sequences were truncated or cut out completely. The frantic run through Bill's town/Lincoln, Joel and Ellie's battle with David's men in the UEC science lab, and the amazing tunnel sequence in Salt Lake City to name a few. I haven't watched season 2 yet, but if it's anything like season 1, I'll probably be disappointed.

Re: Clair Obscur Expedition 33 Dev Won't Add Mini Map, Discovery a Key Part of Promising PS5 RPG

If there's an in game reason for it, and the devs are passionate about it then I can respect this. But I feel like too many games are forcing the use of a compass instead of letting the player toggle a mini map or compass. This gets annoying because too often games - Ghost of Tsushima and Assassin's Creed Odyssey/Origins come to mind - will give you a search area for a quest, but because you only have a compass, it isn't clear where the boundaries of this search area are, so you can spend a lot of time just trying to gauge where you're supposed to be looking. Again, it seems like Sandfall have put much thought into it, but overall I'd prefer if devs just let the player toggle a mini map or compass.

Re: Ex-Xbox System Seller Starfield Edges Ever Closer to PS5

I played it for around 125 hours on Series X and absolutely loved it at first. But then I began to realize how tedious planetary exploration was, how locations were copy and pasted, and just how segmented the game world was. Still, overall I had a good time with the game, and would love to revisit it on PS5 with all of the new features and quality of life enhancements.
