I went ahead and picked it up on one of these sales - played it this weekend - and really liked it. I’m not a hardcore FPS online guy, but I had fun, and anticipate it will only get better with updates and more content.
Well played sir!
KoA!!! Joy!!!!
Amazing game - my favorite of this gen. For anyone struggling with it - there are a ton of help videos.
I’m a busy guy, so I would go through a new area and discover as much as I could on my own, and then watch a walk-through of the level to see what I missed - which was less and less as I learned the game.
Same with bosses - I only sought help if I got killed a bunch of times and was obviously missing a key tactic.
You can find videos ...
The biggest impact of this mess will be consumer’s reservations with the next open world game they release - ES or the space one.
It’s seems that a lot of the criticism around content is similar to No Man’s Sky. Story matters.
I think the review was well written and justified the score. I had planned on getting this at launch; nothing I read has changed my mind.
Opinion: < Extreme take to get clicks. >
The Switch in our house won’t likely get turned on again until Metroid comes out.
For me this game is a nice change of pace from what I’ve been playing recently - Dark Souls 3 - which is super intense, dark, creepy and lonely.
I love DS3, but RDR2 has beautiful nature scenery, and I don’t have to worry about a freaky creature jumping out at me. I also really enjoy the characters and story of RDR2.
I’m not comparing the two - just that they create very different moods - and which I choose to play on a given day will depend on what I’m ...
Agree - I have a launch PS4 and a 1080 TV. I will upgrade my TV when the PS5 comes out.
It’s downloaded and ready to go!
Thank you for this. It’s nice to know I can practice against bots - to get used to the maps.
It’s been awhile since I’ve played an online shooter - and this would allow anyone in a similar boat to get their thumbs back in shape.
I got a decent way through Demon Souls and DKS1, but B.B. was the first one I completed - including DLC.
I just started DKS3, and I own the remastered DKS2. I’ll beat these and then get the PS4 remastered DKS1. I’d also like to finish Demon Souls.
BB helped me understand how to play these games - though the combat is a little different.
The article says the biggest growth was seen in mobile gaming. With the latest round of smartphones - and their gaming capabilities, I expect this trend to continue.
This fall should be huge for PC and consoles as well.
What qualifies someone to be a video game critic? I could start a website and start reviewing games.
In other industries, it seems a critic’s credentials are based on accomplishments in the industry and peer validation.
For video games, some random person gets hired by a website, and we are supposed to give weight to their opinion.
I honestly haven’t started it on the PS4; I do have it on my Mac - and I’m about 10 hours in.
I like it - it’s point and click - so it’s a thinking game and not a finger dexterity game.
I’d recommend reading reviews to see if it’s something you’d like - and the price is right just to give it a try.
Many games are the same ones we’ve been playing for decades. - Sports games, racing games, online shooters...etc. Every new version tweaks the graphics and small gameplay elements.
Creativity with a Spider-Man game is somewhat limited because he is an established character with an established story and setting - any significant changes would make it not Spider-Man.
Dang - Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition is only $9.99 with PS+; I got a few months ago for $14.99 - thinking it would never drop lower.
The Alphas are $74.99 - worth the extra $5.
