@Accipitridae There's still mythology in this new game, & I think assuming it's become overwhelmingly nonsensical fantasy is silly given how little context we all still have. I missed one or two of the other names used, but one of the characters who seemed like a big antagonist mentioned Begste, a dharmapāla or war god in Tibetan Buddhism. Not to mention clearly many of the designs in this lengthy gameplay trailer were clearly referencing eastern Asian mythology. You can have your opinion that it's more fantastical in sense of scale I suppose, I'll agree with you there, but it's not anything that's that shocking. Especially compared to the mythological liberties taken throughout the series as a whole. It's pretty standard at this point & if people are tired of gow in general or something that's fine but saying that this is drastically different isn't very apparent other than the fact the main character isn't Kratos this time.

@Accipitridae A more grounded approach like gow4? You mean.. like killing everyone in the Greek universe, & magically appearing in a Norse one? Lol... I swear the people who think this series is just now getting weird or crazy or ridiculous are deeply misremembering what exactly went down in the story over the years.

@outlawprophet Do better bro lmao

The article didn't make this clear so I'll post this for the commenters wondering: the rerelease with all the new content is going to be $60, while people who already own the game can purchase the new content as dlc for $30 @Alexface @Dragon83

@redapt What do you mean o.o of course you can still play it, it's up to you if you wanna play the newer version with new features & characters or the one that's already out

@Dan12836666 They did add an easy mode to Cronos.

@WhensDinner That's ridiculous. I've literally used my cashapp to pay for a couple things using my ps app, I buy games all the time. I almost wish I didn't know about this if there's not really a way to do it.

Having a really hard time locating exactly where to find this deal in the app.

Wow some of these comments have some bonkers takes about this.

@PuppetMaster What exactly is sad about that?

Awful. This is one of the big first steps to people being totally fine with AI voices for characters. Soon there will be games with entire casts that aren't real people, & if the game is successful enough, I'm sure people will complain & maybe they'll replace the AI with actual voice actors. Then it'll just be a matter of time until there's a studio that does not care about doing the right thing & it won't matter if they're already making money.
I know a few months ago Expedition 33 was in some hot water for not being transparent about AI. I know the end product was great but this should be a reminder that there's no laws regulating this properly & devs can literally tell us whatever they want (they're not obligated to tell the truth) & pretty soon we won't be able to tell the difference.
This sh*t sucks.

@TheSwitchBit Wild take. Requiem is basically just the best parts of RE4 & RE7.

@puddinggirl It literally says Switch 2 at the end of the trailer btw

@Kraven Is this a joke lol? Bluepoint is done unless a major publisher saves them in the next few weeks.

I swear this would've been a much better received game if it were $5 or $10 less.

@x3King84 That's... not really true. It looks like we can play 9 without playing 7 or 8 but if you played Village without playing Biohazard first, many many things don't make sense, even by resident evil standards.

@RagnarLothbrok Did you mean Keeper? Firekeeper is the lady from dark souls 3 lol

@Exerion76 It's painfully obvious you didn't play gow 2018 lol

@Vaako007 Because it's the most expensive one of Sony, Nintendo, & Microsoft but there's no Sony or Nintendo games.. so it's not really worth it. Unless all you play is COD or Assassin's Creed or whatever. Casual gamers started to realize they don't actually care about having all the games on game pass & hardcore gamers want games better than Starfield or Redfall or Outer Worlds 2.

@nomither6 I don't really think that's accurate. I loved most if not all the God of War games I've put my hands on & I've been playing em since the original on PS2. I think there's a chance you're not considering how much more popular games are as a whole 20 years later. GoW (2005) eventually reached 4.6 million sales but, the best selling game of that year was Madden 06 at just under 3 million sales. My point is that GoW ended up being one of the best selling games for PS2. Which is particularly impressive for being a mature-rated new IP. Maybe I missed something where everyone suddenly hates the old games now or something but I think that might just be a vocal minority. Actually I usually see people complain about the new ones but the norse GoW games are pretty popular despite that.

@Foxhound Jsyk the deluxe edition is on sale for $60 in the US. Pretty good deal since it has the season pass with all the characters included (which is separately $35 normally). Also I believe the physical edition is still on sale after black friday for $30.

I'm not defending anything but like why is anyone surprised? 1. It's Rockstar 2. It's literally a free upgrade. What were y'all expecting exactly lol

@KeldorTheCursed Lol what do you mean it's crazy, Returnal is one of the absolute hardest games out there. I'd say it's easier to plat every souls game than it is to plat Returnal. I've put like 80 hours into it, & I'm sure it's cause I just need to get better, but I'm not even 1/3 of the way through the story yet. I love it but it's absolutely brutal, even compared to most roguelikes/roguelites

@Jimez "...the entire package at $59.99 / £52.99, or you can purchase the upgrade for $39.99 / £35.99 if you already own Fallout 4."
Seems pretty clear to me.

@Jammer Fighting games are not beat em ups. This is a fighting game.

@Dalamar No it's a phrase for whenever somebody says something really f**kin stupid like trying to imply that someone who committed sexual crimes shouldn't be shamed or punished for being given high profile appearances in multi million dollar game franchises.

@Dalamar You sound like a psycho. Touch grass, homie. If you were confirmed to have committed illegal violent or sexual crimes whether it was acknowledged by the law or not, then you should suffer consequences. Period, the end. I can't actually believe so many users on this site liked/agreed with such an insane comment.

@KillerBoy @DualWielding It's actually the most popular fallout game if I'm not mistaken. I tried it & hated it but it makes sense why they'd still be supporting it after all this time, money talks.

@UltimateOtaku91 Just curious, why would you assume the attach rate would be higher in Europe? Aren't sales in general lower for video game things compared to the US at least? Sorry if that's incorrect I'd just always seen older statistics show that US has higher sales & gaming revenue than Europe

@Jammer Again, I don't really understand why you couldn't compare the two. Why can't the PS4 be compared to the PS1? You aren't exactly making a compelling argument other than, what, money? But that's not the point of the comparison

@Jammer @Nepp67 Wait why can't these games in the same series be compared again?

Just cancelled my pre-order, had no idea this didn't have local co-op. I'm almost offended this article invokes the names of LBP & Split Fiction when this game doesn't even do local lol. Whole reason I got it was to play with my roommates.. Oh well, guess I'll watch it on yt or something & save some money.

@graymamba I mean, not really lol. Even Nintendolife gave it a 6, it looks like it's barely averaging at a 70 on metacritic. I actually haven't seen a single 9 let alone 10/10 score

Why did my comment get removed? Lol? What guidelines did I break?

"The developer is also continuing to create new content for Granblue Fantasy Rising: Rising" 😂 that got a good chuckle out of me.

Pretty funny to me that Lies of P is somehow winning as the favorite so far, but it's still not available to download for Essential yet. I'm excited for that one too, been in my wishlist for a long while, but I have no idea if it's my favorite as I haven't even played it yet. Kinda weird that it's an option y'all even put in the poll since only people who've played before it was gonna be on PS+ know how they feel about that game. Anyway Balatro has been my favorite this year so far, that was my vote

Never once heard of this game until this article. Perhaps next time with a new IP you want to sell really well you should market it better?

I only bought premium after getting my portal, it had nothing to convince me to get it otherwise. Honestly after trying it, it's not bad, but I'll probably downgrade to essential when it's time to re-up.

I had high hopes for this game but I actually completely agree with this review, it was disappointing. A few more modes could convince me to pick it up again

@Basilides Right... The whole article is about how this was a new esrb posting, & that's why it also says "While no official announcement has been made"

@PuppetMaster Ah, yes, I forgot all the other official "real articles" actually literally say article in the title! How silly of me! Get a grip. You're the one who's being a weirdo over semantics. I'm allowed to express my opinion, especially if all these lames can say they hate GTA on almost every GTA ARTICLE.

@PuppetMaster Yeah no sh*t, dude. I was obviously & clearly talking about the comments. Aduh.
Btw "article" - a nonfictional prose composition usually forming an independent part of a publication (such as a magazine).
This is an article. Even if it's a poll. Lol.

Love all the "I don't care about GTA at all" comments. Why did you click the article then lol xD some people need more hobbies

Gotta sit there & wait regardless of it being physical or not so it doesn't really make a difference to me whatsoever. Sucks if you don't have internet tho, I guess the media overlords really have decided on a digital only gaming landscape for the future. Sometimes I wonder if pc players didn't stop buying physically if we'd be in this situation, or if it was always gonna go this way.

@yazzika Please. Just as many crap movies release as crap games. Why don't you save the smack talk for a game that's actually bad instead of this really good one?

@1UP-HUSKY Okay lol. Well as long as you have someone who wants to play with you, it's not ever gonna be "unplayable in the future". Seemed a little dramatic to put it like that, no?

@1UP-HUSKY I understand your sentiment but the entire point of the gameplay is cooperative puzzle solving. Or at least like half of the games content. If they made it single player they'd have to rework the mechanics of like, every stage. Also why is this game going to be unplayable in the future..?

@ChrisDeku You can claim it's mediocre if you wish, but 75% positive reviews is not "received poorly". Does anyone actually know how numbers work? You know that's out of a possible 100%, right??? Why does a game have to be a life changing experience for people to dare to admit a game could be good or even just average? Average does not equal bad. Honestly I've seen lots of hate, but probably equal amounts of people who really enjoyed it. I can't get over how when dozens of games journalists call a game decent but not fantastic, people interpret that as "oh so it's garbage?", like that's ridiculous.
Also the game didn't "fail", it probably has great sales & ubisoft was just expecting more numbers just from the star wars IP attached.
