Well, at least this review put the soundtrack as a pro. Nintendolife put it as a con and called some of it repetitive.
That said, glad to see more people finally get to experience probably one of top JRPGs out there. Also glad to see Atlus kept it at 60 FPS. While not a huge deal for a game like this, it does make it feel much better.
Good to see the PS5 version is getting the same great game that Switch and PC got. Really wanted to double dip for this version but no physical means no purchase for me. Also still mindboggling no Sunbreak on release.
Its cool to see they are open to more, and that's good.
But maybe calm down a bit and see how the current project turns out before getting into anything else.
I really wanted to get Zero and Azure when that releases on PS4. But ended up getting Zero on Switch, and boy am I glad I did. The way Falcom is dealing with this is stupid. And as much as I hate a lot of the BS NISA has been pulling as of late, this is definitely not on them. Feel bad they are taking the flak for this.
Can imagine Azure is gonna go through the exact same deal. PS4 getting the short end of the stick on that too. But we shall see.
Tried the demo and it didn't really click with me like Fairy Tail did, oddly enough. But still am glad to see another fantastic game adaptation of an anime/manga!
I would love to play this again. But no upgrade path once again? Nah. Screw the NISA greed. Also this game really didn't need a PS5 version for any reason lol
Its nice seeing some high praise. But gonna judge for myself. People also said TLOU2 was incredible, yet I found that lackluster compared to the first. It's not gonna click with everybody!
Really don't like the design of it. But hey, im sure its designed that way for a reason, and if it means more people get to enjoy gaming, im all for it. Good on Sony!
This is such fantastic news. These games had so many various editions and bundle it was actually ridiculous. So making it this simple is a brilliant call. Other devs/publisher should take note of this.
Being on multiplatform definitely helped with that. But with that said, yeah, I do agree it deserves it. Plus this probably one of the most accessible From Software games even if you're not good at Souls like games.
Only gonna pick these up if physical is gonna be available at regular retailers. Refuse to pay overprice on SE's own store + customs on top of it all (despite being a supposedly EU store...)
PlayStation has so many icon titles that could use a reboot and they went with this? Not complaining as Fantavision was great, but just seem a bit odd. Lol
Its bad to see. But not a huge deal, as you really need to look hard for it to even notice it. Can't imagine SE is gonna ignore that, they kinda have to get rid of it.
Fans Are At War seem like a understatement. Fans are at war over literally anything nowadays. Is the boxart boring? Sure. But chances are you are gonna look at it 2-3 times total then never again.
I really like the combat. But the rest almost feels like a Ubisoft open world game. Also my god, the main character needs to STOP talking none-stop, and swearing. The swearing feels so out of character and unnecessary.
Im sure its gonna come to PS5 eventually. But like Hades its most likely gonna do Early Access on PC > full Release, Xbox/switch and then PS5.
I just know I am so stoked for this. Bought Hades during Early Access and loved it. Will do the same here. The story, lore, the characters, the banter.. Everything was just so extremely well written and acted.
He's an absolute idiot. And honestly a bit worrying how a complete random stranger just managed to walk up to the stage like that and no one really did anything about it. Lucky all he did was doing a idiotic speech. Could had been so much worse.
It's not. But Anime characters = Genshin Impact-like game apparently and easy clicks I guess(other sites has done it too). And unless stuff has changed since closed beta it's not even a gacha game either. Just F2P.
Super happy more people get to experience this incredible game! And I am definitely gonna be picking it up on PC as well. Even better framerate? Count me in!
I feel bad for Bend Studios having to deal with this. But glad to see they are making it clear they have nothing to do with those ridiculous and stupid tweets.
Cool to see them promote some lesser known titles. But this should be standard. I know they added a demo section at long last a few days ago, but should have been there from the start.
Glad to see Blizzard may be able to pull this off. Been having my doubts with everything regarding them lately. The microtransaction stuff still has me worried though. But so far its good to hear its looking promising.
Tomizawa said the game won't be getting any story DLC, many times. The game is a complete game so 0.01% chance of this being DLC.
Sequel/Prequel (similar to Zestiria & Berseria?) or Anime most likely.
As a almost 25 year Tales Fan, I am ready for more, especially if they can keep the quality up.
Cool to finally see some sort of update for the game, even if its minor. But can't imagine this being to much fun with random players due to lag. (no more lag-stabs please...) But hey, new stuff is always appreciated.
This is how a remake should be. Looks fantastic and staying true to the original. I have played the game so many times and yet I am still super excited for it.
Also big fan of the new light effects they are using. Makes it look even more creepy.
Already have over 200+ hours in Rise and Sunbreak on Switch. Would 100% pick this up for PS5 as well and spend just as much time on it. Absolutely love this over World/Iceborne.
Also kinda surprised we haven't seen MonHun Stories 2 on PS5.
Been playing through it myself, and glad to see im not crazy. Its by no means a bad game but it doesn't feel as good or smooth as the trailers made it seem, or the team hyped it up to be. Also may just be me but some animation feels pretty.. Janky? I guess.
But its definitely gonna scratch the horror-itch for some people.
If this turns out to be anything like the mobile game then we are in for a crazy ride. That game is all cute and pretty with all the dress up, but with some legit insane lore. Lol
Took me about 36 hours. Gonna Plat it eventually. But hoping they are gonna patch the backseating cause my god. Even after beating the game the NPCs are STILL telling you what to do and how to use x weapon/ability. I just can't deal with it lol.
"Game has a season pass, but we don't know what to do with it yet" > Adds death animations. Glad I decided to skip this till its cheap. Screw that. That is ridiculous.
Saw someone play it co-op the other day. It doesn't look amazing by any means, but looks like fun. Can see myself getting this later down the road to co-op with a bud. And this review definitely backs-up what I saw!

Re: Deathverse: Let It Die Going Offline to Be Redeveloped
Lol. That didn't last very long. But its a good call I suppose? Its pretty boring compared to Let it Die and definitely not optimized at all.

Re: Street Fighter 6 June 2023 Release Date Leaked via PS Store
I figured June/July/August myself. So not surprised by this.
Do we know if we can unlock characters/costumes/colors with in-game currency similar to SF5? If so, I hope they won't be as ridiculous stingy.

Re: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion (PS5) - A Fantastic Remaster of a Fun But Flawed RPG
Good review! And honestly, while Crisis Core is a fantastic game, the score doesn't surprise me. It is still a old game after all.
>Some truly dreadful dialogue
Glad they didn't change that. While some if has and will always be awful, it still adds to the charm of the game.
Re: Dead Space PS5 Looks Like a Remarkable Remake

A shame as I was looking forward to this.

But its definitely gonna scratch the horror-itch for some people.
Re: Don the Power of Dressing Up in PS5, PS4 Open World Adventure Infinity Nikki

Im looking forward to this.
Re: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion's Launch Trailer Is Packed with Nostalgia

Re: 25% of Players Have Beaten God of War Ragnarok, Two Weeks After Release
