Microtransactions, paid cosmetics, multiple currencys, resource dismantling, daily challenges, battle passes, tie-ins with other brands.

Even if there is somehow a semi decent game buried underneath all this I wouldn't buy it on principle. These games aren't designed around being fun, they're just cynical time sinks designed to keep you "engaged" enough for the next season of... Whatever else they're trying to sell you

This looks cool, hopefully Sony start putting some of these smaller indie games on PS Now one day

Game is cool but I was disappointed to see it had the option of purchasing currency from the PSN store. Its a paid game so why does it have a free to play economy

Ahh well, breath of the wild might have better travel mechanics but at least Jin's sword isn't made out of paper mache

Age is irrelevant. EA and other companies, especially mobile ones, put a LOT of time and research into exploiting these people. Just look at some of Jim sterling's videos, they have entire presentations explaining how they plan to manipulate the player into spending

84 metacritic out of 86 reviews is a very very good score though

Which is weird, cos they're arguably the more interesting games imo

I didn't know Bobby Kotick had a N4G account

We're judging the quality of games on YouTube like to dislike ratios now?

Nex Machina is currently on sale on the UK store, for anyone wanting a reason to be excited for this

Translation: I only respect opinions that are similar to mine, making all reviews pointless anyway

"I’ll admit, I came into this title with a skeptical eye, ready to knock it down a peg from all the praise other critics had been giving it"

Why though? Why would you not see the good reviews, assume its a good game and just be excited to play it?

Yeah fire Neil Druckman, the man with years of experience at Naughty dog who helmed three critically and commercially successful games in a row! Get rid of him quick!

Scummy publishers, all of em 🤢

Is this based purely on the fact that there is a woman and one black guy? (that presumably is the guy out of the spiderverse movie)

Looks awesome, glad to see Sackboy isn't gone for good

I thought it was an actual Pokemon game, like Pokemon: Rival 🤔

Good for them, they make great games. Just started playing Ys VIII as it's been in my backlog for a while now

PS+ has been a bit lame for a while now, I used to love it during the PS3/Vita days and some of the earlier PS4 stuff. Hope they incorporate it into PS Now somehow because despite the odd decent month I don't really play online enough to justify it anymore.

Loads of people care. The game is gonna be huge, no reason to assume it won't be. You think the average Joe cares about some guy on twitter throwing a tantrum?
