I was happy with the last two PS+ Essential Game Lineups too, but this one is a ton cooler. Owned TMNT Collection on PC already, but will most likely play it again on the bigger screen.

Is Dragon Age The Veilguard worth the time it probably needs? Liked the previous games of the series a lot.

pwnmaster3000452d ago (Edited 452d ago )

I mean no harm in trying.
I’m glad it is because I was just gonna buy it.
I usually just grab any monthly game.
I have so much games that I’ve never played sitting in my library because of the monthly games lol. Do they have an expiration?

Popsicle452d ago

So long as you stay subscribed they stay in your library.

Terry_B452d ago

Only if you unsubscribe to ps+..but even if you make a subscription pause of years, they would be back if you subscribe again with the same PSN account ^^

Back in August '24 I started the crazy quest to try and beat as many of the ..around 350 PS4+PS5 ps+ games I have + a few bought one sin physical form ..since I started subscribing back in 2013 already. From A-Z.

Played through a weird game named 2064 Read Only Memories..had a lot of fun and almost tears with the damn awesome 2 "A Plague Tale" games, enjoyed Alan Wake, Aliens Fireteam Squad or what its called and a couple more games started with A.

When I was at the standalone dlc for Assassins creed IV Black Flag I bought that friggin whole game and beat it because I liked the dlc.

Now in february 2025 I am still at fucking letter B because I also bought Barman Arkham Collection and just beat Arkham City, Getting the time for all these games that are good and come for such a small price is more soulslike than anything from FromSoftware.

Lets see if I make it to Letter D by the end of the year >:I

This really feel like good value for the plus sub. Can't wait to give DA and Sonic a try. Already have TMNT

Jingsing450d ago (Edited 450d ago )

@Terry_B How is PS+ good value if for example I haven't been subscribed for 5 years, Then 5 years later I want to play a game I got on the service. I have to pay $100 or more whatever the price will be in the future, almost certainly higher. That isn't value at all having to pay a high access fee for an old 10 year old game. Nothing about game subscriptions make financial sense unless you can keep them in your library without having to constantly pay for it. That is how they make the money and you ultimately lose as a consumer.

Dragon Age has a fun combat system that offers good challenge on the higher difficulty (haven't tried normal).

I'm about 10-12 hours in, on PC where it runs so well, and just got Lucanis in my party. Graphics are nice, audio is good, quality of voice actors is also good.

The only problem at this point is there are signs of overly-positive writing and one character I've complained about before that is especially annoying.

I haven't played more because of other games, not because it isn't fun or the writing is *that* off-putting.

Maybe as I play more I'll like it less, but for now, I know enough about the tone of the writing that I can brush that aside and enjoy a fun game with acting that's still good despite some of what they're given - the core of what's been about the story is written better than when it's about or involving that specific irritating character.

VenomUK452d ago

For Dragon Age: The Veilguard to be included in PS Plus so soon after release just goes to show how far EA/Bioware shit the bed.

thorstein452d ago

I'd place it just below Inquisition. There are parts that I really enjoyed getting into the backstory about, especially the infractions with Solas. Luckily there are many companions and you can usually pick who you want with you.

The character stories are decent, with some being quite enjoyable.

nitus10451d ago

I spent a few hours on Inquisition and while I think the gameplay was fine I just lost interest. Of course I did have Dark Souls 2, 3, Bloodborne and a suite of RPG's that I also wanted to play at the time.

Oh well I will bookmark all the games in case I eventually wish to play them.

Luc20452d ago

Playing all these games sounds like a full time job! No doubt you'll come across a gem once in a while.

Abear21451d ago

If it wasn’t for GT7 I’d probably finish more games. Want TMNT just for the nostalgia high and will play it some, but backlog be damned!

I’m only adding must play games to the pile bc I’m already a year behind haven’t started RE4 yet or Alan Wake 2, hopefully news of GTA6 or RDR2 remaster happens by the time I finish them. Probably finish Skyrim before I play Veilguard.

Daeloki451d ago

Veilguard is fun to a degree, but sadly falls a bit short from its predecessors. I bought it at release because I was excited to have it, but sadly I was a bit blinded to actual valid criticism by all the typical loud anti-woke rantings. As in, by the time I wanted to check reviews, all you could really see was grown white men crying about pronouns and other optional character features, and all actual criticism was kinda drowned out.

That said, I think the gameplay is fun, although it can get a bit repetitive. It looks stunning in my opinnion, but the writing isn't very deep. Everyone gets along a bit too well, there is no real friction or risk of uppsetting your companions. Visually it's very pleasing, spells and abilities are flashy and cool, and combat is very fluid and dynamic. The companions had initially interesting storylines, but they kinda fell short despite the potential.

Ooh Sonic colors. I never actually got around to beating my Wii copy. I hope it's been improved cuz I heard at lunch it wasn't the best

Terry_B452d ago

Much better graphics, better controls, more languages, a new game mode even some decently remixed music tracks

DoubleYourDose452d ago

Definitely better for a late night snack.

Profchaos452d ago

Yeah same I struggled with the Wii version back in the day because it ran terrible so I'm excited to play this

Cockney451d ago

Someone told me at breakfast the game was a bit on the woke side, I won't download it till after dinner, maybe ill hear different by then

thorstein451d ago (Edited 451d ago )

A companion has an optional storyline about their gender. If you choose to go through that particular companion storyline, you can button beat the dialog and avoid it.

That stuff doesn't bother me at all, but I found that character annoying anyway.

jambola452d ago (Edited 452d ago )

So how long until skull and bones is on ps+?
they love throwing the leftover slop on there lately

rest is cool though
can't beat those Konami collections

Profchaos451d ago

Absolutely it's coming to be honest I'd rather play the underwater tnmt NES level on repeat than start dragon age

Popsicle451d ago (Edited 451d ago )

I am absolutely more excited about the Cowabunga collection when compared to the other 2 offerings. In all honesty it is probably the only game out of the 3 that I will get around to playing.

ravens52452d ago

I just bought Dragon Age too lol. $25 off Amazon. Guess I'll just leave it sealed then 🤷🏾.

badz149450d ago

LOL how many times have this happened to me haha

OtterX452d ago (Edited 452d ago )

Wow, pretty amazing as Veilguard just came out in October. Opinions have been pretty mixed, but I'll happily try it out for free. I loved Inquisition, but I know to keep my expectations lower for this one.

As for TMNT collection, I had bought for Switch a long while back so i could have it for portable play. I'm really happy to get it again on PS5 for trophies.

crazyCoconuts452d ago

Yeah highly unusual to have it Veilguard on PS+ so soon! Don't know if that's a statement of how great PS+ is, how poorly Veilguard did, or a combination of both.

raWfodog452d ago

Yup, get to try it out for myself sooner rather than later without having to 'buy' it. It's really telling that this next DA game has been shifted to PS Plus so soon after its release but I'm still willing to give it a go after the lackluster reviews.

Ninver452d ago (Edited 452d ago )

Try it out you may. But know that nothing is free.

Uh oh, Xbox Revealed the New TMNT: Shredder's Revenge DLC a Little Early

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge is one of the most popular beat 'em ups of the last few years, so it came as no surprise when the game received a DLC entitled "Dimension Shellshock." What did come as a surprise, however, is when Xbox published a trailer for a second DLC called "Radical Reptiles." No press release was sent out, and the DLC isn't available just yet," says Co-Optimus.

PSN leaked the Legacy of Kain Remastered package

DodoDojo607d ago

Well hopefully there's a physical release with the dlc on it.

Knightofelemia607d ago

Mondo Geko nice I remember the salamander chick from the old cartoon.

Yi-Long607d ago

I wasn’t excited or interested when I saw the 2 new characters (don’t know them, don’t look very appealing), but I notice it’s only 4 bucks orso, so might pick it up. Recently bought the game so haven’t even played it much yet though.
