Re: Rumour: Starfield PS5 to Take Flight Alongside New Expansion Next Year

zhoont

This is a good game, and many will put dozens of hours into it. But it just could have been so much more, and it didn't live up to the promise. The opportunity cost was also enormous. Still, I am glad Bethesda got to make their pet project because now they're going to bounce between Elder Scrolls and Fallout until probably long after I'm dead.

Re: State of Decay 3 Is Another Upcoming Xbox Game Tipped for PS5

zhoont

I only played State of Decay 2, but man did I love that game. Have gone back a couple times just to get another taste, because it ***** rocks. The gameplay loop is soooo satisfying- might be on of the best gameplay loops I've ever played tbh, just lacking in story and characters

Re: Sony Veterans Notice Their Purchased PS3 Avatars Have Gone Missing

zhoont

I'm just cheesed because I thought buying all these avatars I really liked was going to be future proofing my avatar choices since PS5 has stopped adding very many at all, but now it's probably going to be the case that all those aavtars I got will die with my PS3. I need to test if I can see these avatars on PS4 as well as PS3, and it's just the PS5 and PS App which can't see most of them.

Re: Sony Veterans Notice Their Purchased PS3 Avatars Have Gone Missing

@RawnDawn right now it seems like the 150+ or so avatars I have purchased on my PS3 since early 2024 are all able to be downloaded from the PlayStation store on PS3 (from "View Downloads") and then set under Account Management on the XMB. Unfortunately, you have to download them one-by-one and after 30 or so downloads your console will start giving you an error message when you try to download more or go to account management until you restart the console.

Re: Pinhead Is Back! Single Player Hellraiser Horror Revealed for PS5

zhoont

That first Hellraiser movie is a certified classic, I haven't seen the others. Really liked the cenobite in Dead by Daylight, but he's too hard to play on controller when your opponents are competent. More single player horror games are right up my alley. Hoping there's third-person and lots of nudity

Re: Ghost of Yotei PS5 a Similar Length to Ghost of Tsushima, Same Scope

zhoont

@Nepp67 I mean the rivers flood and you can get sandstorms, but other than that yes I agree completely. I have a few disappointments about DS2. Like why does the bike have only a couple upgrades (no tires?!), why is the roadster missing from the game completely, why is the coffin board so cool but you damage your cargo if you land 2 inches onto the ground (tar!), why are you dripfed standard orders such that there's basically none to take on during the story, WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY?

Re: VRR Gives Cyberpunk 2077 a Massive Performance Boost on PS5 Pro, Up to 120FPS

zhoont

I wish CD Project would just tell me they're not gonna be doing a Pro update so I can safely sit down and tackle the game again. There have been so many good updates I just keep putting off another playthrough because I want to play it when it's in a truly completed state. The only other thing I could want is mod support and/or more clothes and customization options.

Re: Ghost of Yotei PS5 a Similar Length to Ghost of Tsushima, Same Scope

zhoont

I thought that direct sequels, in the sense that they use and build upon the same engine, gameplay systems, etc. would have either a grander scope or a much higher quality of experience overall or maybe in story. I was just let down by 5 years waiting for Death Stranding 2 and getting what I thought was a terrible final arc to the story, and a similar scope map to the original. If Ghost of Yotei is going to be similar in scope to Tsushima it better blow my socks off in other ways. I don't think it's reasonable, but I don't feel satisfied by the idea of just another Tushsima entry. It's gotta be better.

Re: Death Stranding 2: Who Should Voice Charlie on the DHV Magellan?

zhoont

Lmao I've been regretting picking Die Hardman. Glad I don't need to anymore. He was the best pick because he just feels right, but I was so curious if they actually got Margaret Qualley to voice the entire game to that extent... and I felt like a change of commentary since Die Hardman was voicing a ton in the first game

Re: Days Gone Dev Reportedly Hit with Layoffs, Loses 30% of Staff

zhoont

@PloverNutter it was either Days Gone 2 or the live service project, and Sony supported them going towards the live service project which I assume lead to them picking that over Days Gone 2. But even if they wanted to do a different single-player offering I would have preferred that over live service

Re: Kick Back with More Mind Blowing Death Stranding 2 PS5 Gameplay

zhoont

I was skipping through the showcase trying to dodge any in-game footage and I accidentally hit a frame from one of the gameplay sections and I was really surprised at what looked like a bunch of sparklers? Not sure how to describe it but I don't know what was going on, and I love the teases.

Showcase question: Woodkid used his final thought to thank Hideo for putting music first in the CPU priority in the game when music usually gets last (as he put it). What does that mean? He seemed very excited and thankful but I don't know the implications.

Re: Oblivion Remastered Runs Worse the Longer You Play on PS5

zhoont

Classic Bethesda game problem. It was particularly bad in Fallout New Vegas (creation engine) because as I understand it the game loads areas and never truly clears them once you leave until you restart the game. So in OBLIVION I think it's the same- as you play one session the more places and people & things getting loaded into your game the more it bloats and tanks the frame rate, crashes your game. I think it was called cell purging or something.
