The graphics and the gameplay looks good, and surprisingly the music seems good too, I'm kind of hyped for this, AA indie games is the future of gaming for me π
Can't be worse than EA right now, at least the saudi won't let bioware made dragon age veilguard lol. One thing for sure, it's not realistic for gaming company to increase making money years after years, at some point the limit already reached, I think EA already hit that limit and want to sell their company when it still has high price (like activision sold to microsoft).
This looks really good, I hope at least there's ps5 demo so I can play it early before it launch, bonus point if I can continue the demo save point to the main game. And man I kind of want chrono trigger remake or ff7 full remade with graphics like this
@judgmentarrows Never preorder, I have been burned by street fighter 5, no man sky (it's good now though), and tlou 2, just wait after reviews and watch 1-2 hours youtube let's play before deciding to buy it or not.
Is this a lot or is this too few people? I don't know anymore with this AAA games industry. In one hand ubisoft make games with like 10.000 people or something, but in the other hand sanfall interactive made clair obscur expedition 33 with only about 33 people.
Of course it is, while ps2 cost $100 in the end of its lifecycle, ps5 increase the price of the console, while ps4 pro cost the same as ps4 (and sony lower the non-pro ps4), ps5 pro cost friggin $700 with no disc drive and no stand to add to the humiliation of customer π
I just hope in ps6 era sony goes back to single player games with great story rather than chasing down the live service rabbit hole, although by the time ps6 arrive maybe the trend already move to other type of games (just like multiplayer shooter and mmo genre before).
Hyped for this game, especially after knowing the gatcha is only for the cosmetics and not characters or others. I really hope it doesn't have many currency like genshin or other gatcha games, let there be just 2 currency, 1 in-game money, and the other real-life money.
@4fold Man if this game is single player $70 games, I'll be super hyped about it, but I guess single player games money isn't enough for this kind of games. For now indies is my only hope for great single player only games, playing silksong now, with ninja gaiden ragebound and shinobi art of vengeance in my backlog. And I'm still waiting for the rouge prince of persia discount to also add it to my backlog π
I hope the speakers is good, I already use bowers & wilkins MM1 for my pc but maybe this one is better for gaming? MM1 is really good for movie and music though. Although the sony speaker is wireless while bowers & wilkins MM1 is wired, wired speaker usually sound better than wireless one.
The game looks... good? I'm more interested in this game now after watching the gore, I really really hope insomniac can make a good story for this game, also please do not use spider-man 2 writer for this game, I hope he or she already been fired.
I think spider-man 1 ps4 story is really good, ps5 ratchet and clank is boring, and spider-man 2 story is really bad, it's a downward trajectory for insomniac games story quality, really hope this one got great story like spider-man 1 ps4.
At this point going back to pc seems to be a better choice lol, at least there's no subscription for playing online / save cloud and the steam discount make the games way cheaper, especially in the country with cheap regional pricing. Wish steam make steam deck for tv, I still want to play AAA games like elden ring in tv with 5.1 surround, and I don't want windows os anywhere near my tv.
Kind of regret selling my xbox series s console, bought it when it's still normal price, and it's a good retro console for playing xbox 360 games like gears series and other games that hasn't ported to modern console like mgs revengeance and capcom d&d chronicles of mystara.
@Flaming_Kaiser The art style looks like horizon but the gameplay looks like a survival game, not action adventure like horizon games.
We already have nintendo patent games mechanics and suing palworld, it isn't good for gamers if all the big gaming corporations suing each other with patent rather than competing in free market.
@PuppetMaster Really, I though dq3 remake sells more. I do hope this remake sells way more compared to dq3 remake though, I want chrono trigger remake with graphics like this
@Oram77 If sony sue them because of the design style of the robots maybe tencent can change them to please sony, I think tencent robots design for this game is too close to the horizon games.
If this game sells better than ff16 which have better (and way more expensive) graphics, maybe squareenix should focus only on gameplay and story for the next final fantasy & dragon quest games and use this style of graphics instead of realistic graphics like ff16 and dq11.
And I want chrono trigger remake with graphics style like this π
@Oram77 I don't care about tencent, I don't want some corporations has patent on games concept, like this or nintendo vs palworld.
@Ainu20 I didn't said sony want to patent genre, I said tencent should change their robots design, sony won't sue them if the robots design is different I think, especially since it seems the gameplay is also different (more like survival game than action game).
I think tencent should make the robots design a bit different and that's it, it isn't good for gaming if some corporations can patent a genre like "jungle theme future apocalypse filled with robots" or some stuff like that.
This gen playstation suck, more expensive hardware, games, no exclusive, less new single player 1st party games, and the one that launched suck compared to their ps4 counterparts, etc π
Wtf, the chiby CG graphics looks really good, now I want ff7 remaster with this kind of graphics rather than realistic graphics on ps5, of course it have to be a complete story, not divided like the remake.
Huh, I thought nintendo own this franchise, cool it's available in ps5. I played the original back on ps2 and man it's scary, not "I only have little bullets left" scary, but "I don't want to be here anymore" scary lol.
I never finished the game back then, I think I'll try finishing it with this remake.
Update: I'm enjoying the boss fight, it's difficult but exciting. The only thing I found annoying are the flower down jump (in the area with ants), the down jump attack is just too short I think, by the time I touch the enemy/boss or the flower, the attack already over and I get some damage or I miss the flower jump lol.
Yes I just bought it, and no I'm not a fan of the first hollow knight. I think I already has the first game but I forget where (either xbox store, psn, or eshop), I don't like the first game because it seems the environment looks the same.
Nope, not at all. Itβs kind of funny that some of the characters design really looks that joanna dark on the cancelled perfect dark, some of the female characters got bigger chin than me, and Iβm a man lol.
Ps5 launch on 2020, Trump become president on 2025, there isn't price decrease in the 5 years of this console-gen, sony just want scapegoat to increase ps5 price. There should be $300 ps5 super slim by now, not increasing price or lowering the internal ssd storage
Ps5 still haven't gotten its uncharted 4 yet, a game that scream "the next-gen start now" type of games. On psone it's the launch games (ridge racer, tekken, and wipeout blow me away as a kid), on ps2 it's ridge racer v and later final fantasy 10, on ps3 it's mgs 4, it's uncharted 4 for ps4, but I'm drawing blank on ps5, there's a lot of good games but not next-gen type of games besides the resolutions & framerate update. Maybe gta 6 will be that game.
It's funny when playstation is as successful as ever, as profitable as ever, rather than passing it down to customer with a new cheaper playstation, they made it more expensive instead.
The original body type for asuka dlc is terrifying, it's like male body builder attached with a woman head. Compared that to sf6 dlc that make people played sf6 again, wtf is bamco thinking.
Bought this about a months ago on steam after watching youtube let's play since I prefer the diablo 1 art style compared to vampire survivor cartoony art style. I really recommend this game even if you don't like vampire survivor, it's more like diablo 1 lite, now I'm addicted to it lol.
ps. I think for console it's best played on switch (1 or 2) since it's a pickup and play games.
I'm interested in playing it again on ps5 but I saw the graphics vibe are really different in this version, like when in the xbox 360 level there's heavy pouring of rains, in ps5 version of the level there's only a slight drizzles of rains, or some moody dark stage in xbox 360 replaced by a lot of light in ps5 version.
I still want to play this but maybe I'll wait for a discount π
A bang for your buck, unlike some AAA titles. I'm more excited for indie titles now compared to any western AAA games π
Let's see, already bought ninja gaiden ragebound, shinobi aov, next I'll buy hollow knight silksong, mina the hollower, terminator 2D no fate in the end of october, rogue prince of persia (when it's discounted and after I finish silksong), primal planet and many others indies and AA games. It's like western AAA games is done for me.
I think graphics upgrade are kind of over, more games in 60 fps and higher resolutions is the only upgrade I feels in this new gen. There's no uncharted 4 or red dead redemption 2 like wonders like in ps4, where you can clearly tell there's no way previous console (ps3) can do those games.
Focusing on handheld is smart, especially if the device can stream ps6 games and play ps5 AAA games natively (with lowered graphics), I hope sony name it psp 2
Definitely gettting shinobi and maybe gears of wars reloaded after finishing shinobi.
I need to finish ninja gaiden ragebound too before getting shinobi, still can't believe we're getting new 2D ninja gaiden and shinobi games, both with different type but still beautiful 2D graphics π
Purchase bungie for live service guidance, then all of sony live service games fails (there's one accidental hit, helldivers 2), worst purchase ever? π
@CP2 In the USA games industry failing people fails upside, that's why usa AAA games industry is in such a mess now, just layoffs after layoffs π
Just put the game on the disc microsoft, are microsoft really afraid that gamers can play their games offline without microsoft consent? The game that the gamers already bought with their money I might add.
To this day I still don't understand why sony top executive saw the ps4 success and think "yup, now is the time to change the team that make it successful". And we still doesn't get basic features for psn like automatic refund π
