It's almost as if players are sick and tired of the GAAS model.
Dude, I just cited this to my best friend VERBATIM 😆
The Cell is a monster of a CPU (it's actually more powerful than the PS4 CPU), but it's such a complicated architecture that emulating it takes an enormous amount of CPU power from any system, even if on paper a more powerful CPU can handle it. Basically, instead of being general-purpose, the Cell prioritizes performance but demands a certain way of programming for it. When programming specidically for it, the Cell outperforms everybother processor on the narket, but regular programmi...
"Warner has no good IPs."
Are you nuts? Warner Bros. owns Netherrealms, that alone scores them fucking Mortal Kombat, and they also have the Middle-earth franchise, Harry Potter and fucking BATMAN.
*Civvie-11 voice* THANKS, RANDY.
Not yet. I plan on getting a PS5 eventually, but there's not really anything in the release window that makes it a must-get for me yet. The PS+ Collection's a pretty sweet deal, sure, but it'll be waiting for me whenever I get the console, so I'm not succumbing to FOMO.
My hope is that, with Microsoft in charge, quality control is better and we don't get the typical Bethesda glitchfests of old. Say what you want about Microsoft, but they don't half-ass it on software.
"Monopolies like Google and Apple need to be stopped!!!!"
"What about the monopoly the Epic Store is trying to have over Steam? Or the monopoly Tencent has in China?"
"Oh, those? Pfffft, those are fine, no problem there, lol!"
Jesus Christ, I shouldn't have clicked on that. Rhat comment section in that article is a goddamn cesspool that makes this one look like the Monster Hunter subreddit.
(For reference, the MH subreddit is the most wholesome and nice community in gaming, that website's comment section is downright horrifying)
Wow, this is being a hardcore Tomb Raider fan, goddamn.
Man, I wish I were as excited about anything as this fellow is about a games sale.
I agree with your statement, but before Anthem and Fallout 76, Destiny should be the one. Destiny is the game that originated that GAAS model that Anthem and Fallout 76 try to, unsuccessfully, replicate.
Games of this generation, IMHO: The Witcher 3, Bloodborne and Destiny.
- The Witcher 3: This game defined the story- and character-driven RPG and open-world gameplay, while setting the standard for both. In terms of sheer content, scope of story and character, The Witcher 3 is unmatched. A huge part of the reason so many people, including myself, are so excited for Cyberpunk 2077 is because it's done by the same folks who worked TW3.
- Bloodborne: "Soulslike" ...
After the white phosphorus scene in Spec Ops: The Line, I'm not shocked by doing anything in a game anymore. My soul died that day.
What? Did this guy play past the first five minutes? Yuna is just one character with a quest line in the game. Yes, she was essential to the plot in that she was instrumental in Jin becoming the Ghost, but she is nowhere near a main character. She has as much spotlight as Jin's other allies like Lady Masaki and Sensei Ishikawa, and she's only reallybprominent in the first map. By the second map, she's entirely secondary.
Of course Sekiro is the better action game... cause it IS an action game. GOT is an open world adventure game. It's more about the whole than the sum of its parts. Sekiro is a much more pure straight action game with heavy emphasis on combat
I dunno about you guys, but I found BOTW's world to be too big. I found it empty, and traversal tedious. People hold that game as the epitome of open-world gameplay, but the game has its flaws. I find comparing every open-world game under the sun to it to be disingenuous.
I thought Paste was a magazine for kindergarteners about which glue tasted best.
The way I see it, they can use loading screens during fast travel or resting in an inn or something as an aesthetic choice to show the passage of time, but just keep them short, and not use them at all when respawning. I wouldn't mind that choice at all. A loading screen in the right place can serve as a brief breather for the player, the same way quiet scenes and comic relief work in a movie.
I have both a PC and the PS4, and I plan on getting a PS5. The exclusive games are part of my reason, but the other reason is that the high-end graphics cards are getting CRAZY expensive, and PC requirements have blown up hard all of a sudden. My PC simply cannot run Cyberpunk 2077, and upgrading my card, RAM AND an SSD to be able to run it? I'd rather just buy the PS5 for a fraction of the price. Plus, we're already seeing free games on PS Plus for the PS5, and the backward compatibi...
