Re: Ubisoft's Free-to-Play Shooter XDefiant Has No Platinum in Pretty Weak PS5 Trophy List

zhoont

If I was producing any shooter and I wanted to attract players, I would ensure there were a platinum trophy in my game that took maybe 10 hours to get and relied on mainly trying out all the mechanics, characters, weapons, perks to some extent. Basically give you the platinum for experiencing the game. I figure that would attract players and make the game more fun. What do I know?

Re: Alan Wake 2's Haunting Soundtrack Out Tomorrow, Includes 35 Tracks

The end of chapter songs they made in collaboration with artists are spectacular. Follow You Into the Dark is haunting. No One Left to Love is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. The vocals are just next level, and she is so passionate. Definitely gonna check out the rest of the soundtrack now, but look into the chapter songs if you haven't

Re: PS Plus Adds Two Hour Trial for PS5's The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered

zhoont

The best game ever made on multiple levels. The PS5 version is amazing, too. No Return is a seriously underrated mode right now. It is incredibly fun, challenging, and addicting. The human AI is the closest I've ever come to playing versus real players on Grounded. I've played hundreds of hours of this game across both generations and and I still see new animations every time I play. I cannot recommend this game enough, I've played THOUSANDS of game and I swear this is the best!

Re: There's a 'Real Hunger' for AI to Make Game Dev More Efficient, Says EA Boss

I think he's right when it comes to EAFC's development. I could totally see AI being helpful in translating recordings of players into animations for their in-game characters, even from just a match broadcast. And honestly I would prefer an AI broadcaster at this point than the broadcast they have now, I can barely stand either of the duos and their lines get very repetitive very quickly... it's pretty un-immersive. Each FIFA game has been a step forward, despite what you may have heard from losers addicted to Ultimate Team- especially EAFC 24. I welcome AI in this game's development for sure

Re: Talking Point: Have Sony's Third-Party PS5 Deals Made Up for Its Lack of First-Party Games?

zhoont

The PS5 as a platform is what makes it a powerhouse and the best generation yet. There are more good games to play on it than any other console in history, and it's an endless amount of quality & fun. I want good first party games, but I do not mind that they're coming slowly. I haven't even had time to get to Final Fantasy Rebirth, 16, Stellar Blade, & Rise of the Ronin, which I've heard amazing things about. Even the PlayStation Plus offerings have been great the past few months and I haven't had time for those either.

Re: Video: Does Fallout 4 Look Better on PS5?

zhoont

I feel like I can see better shadows, like the orange awning on the left. Better fog down the street to the right. Better textures of the overgrowth above the poweline across the street to the left. All this on my phone, so I bet I'll notice it more on my 4K TV

Re: Fallout Season 2 Is Official as Show Becomes One of Amazon’s Most-Watched

zhoont

@LifeGirl I lived that normal. It does not ever need to return to that, and I would pay money rather than watch 5 minutes of ads for a 50 minute episode. However, I was already paying for no ads because prime video was ad-free. Now I need to pay more, and that's annoying. Did Amazon really need to eek out that little bit of money? Guess so... Sucks.

Re: Rumour: Sony to Host Big PlayStation Event Next Month

zhoont

Let's stop feeling bad about ourselves and looking at the past with enough nostalgia to turn trash into treasure. Gaming is better now than ever before. The quality of games is better, the amount of experiences available are more, the volume of great titles is high.
About Sony showcases I can feel the fatigue... I used to really look forward to E3 because I knew what I was getting. Some years were better than others, sure, but during that week I knew there would be a lot of marketing and hype to get me excited. Now I've forgotten about Sony showcases. They have been so few and far between, and the last one was such a disappointment. Now that I can't even look forward to Factions I'm not sure what the point is... :/
