Rockstar still owns Sony that one exclusive game, right? Or maybe there was a monetary settlement being made already.
@Bathyj, got it, thanks! It's unfortunate for the gaming in general but it's also inevitable. Companies need to maximize their profits and thus not-so-consumer-friendly business models are introduced. I also hate microtransactions, loot boxes, DLCs, remakes of few year old games, etc. I don't support those models. But unfortunately it seems that the majority does. Maybe they don't like the models but if they opt in and spend their money then they are encouraging these models. ...
And I wouldn't define Deathloop's main genre as roguelike. Sure it's roguelike but personally I think it as an arcade FPS with roguelike mechanics. Roguelikes are often not comparable. How can one compare Hades to Returnal to Deathloop? They are all very different games even if all have roguelike game mechanics. And that's what "roguelike" should be considered: Game mechanics rather than defining the whole genre based on that. At least not anymore! Back in the days i...
Can you elaborate a little? Sorry, I genuinely don't understand what you are saying there. "players are off trying to benefit only themselves"?
This comparison though. I don't even... worst part: It kinda makes sense :D
Based on the review scores: Yes, it's that good. Why all the doubts? Try it yourself and decide.
88 is an excellent score on Metacritic. It's same score than Ratchet and Clank has. It's better score than Returnal (85) and Miles Morales (85). So honestly it looks like Deathloop in fact IS a legit GOTY contender. I cannot comprehend the downplay this game gets from the gaming community. Double standards: other games scoring this well would be instantly in GOTY discussion.
Sony filed a patent for DualSense back button attachment around 7 months ago or so. Fingers crossed that it will be introduced soon!
This has been at the top of my list when it comes to upcoming PS5 titles since the very first announcement trailer. But I agree that I'm absolutely in the minority. I had my doubts sure, but the promise was there with amazing art style, great game idea and fun looking gameplay.
I'm so happy that this game is proving all the doubters wrong. This game has received so much unjustified shit. Sure, people got fed up with all the game play reveals. But since when has the transparency been a bad thing? Since early reveal this has been my most anticipated next gen game. Not because of amazing visuals but rather because of unique and interesting gameplay.
Good news for you. Kojima Productions will be added to PlayStation Studios family very soon. Just confirmed by new Death Stranding trailer.
Good catch. That's massive!!!!!!!!!
I know this doesn't bode well with this community but personally I've been really disappointed with the PS+ content for PS5 recently (not super interested of old gen content).
- May: Wreckfest. Played few times and uninstalled.
- June: Operation Tango. Could be fun but I don't have anyone to play with. Not a fan of online comm games. Didn't install.
- July: A Plague Tale. Probably pretty good if this kind of game interests one. Personally, I didn&...
Weapons could still jam. Just not provide adaptive trigger feedback while doing so. We've had multiple games where weapons can jam in the past.
Tapani, Hades is all about experimenting different weapons and builds. Your runs never feel the same. And you are gradually getting slightly stronger so you never get stuck either. It's a great game and a must-buy. It will get you hooked in 1-2 hours. OSTA!
I hate rogue games as a concept and wasn't sure how I'd like this game. Got it to my Switch few months ago and I've been ABSOLUTELY loving it! This game has stolen around half of my playtime (other half being on PS5). Give it a shot. You won't regret it!
I don't fully get the hate and scepticism this game gets around here. I feel this could be a massive sleeper-hit, as long as the controls are tight and responsive.
I hear you. Although I feel Blizzard is finally doing something about it: This cross-play should help, right? More players in same pool = easier to match players with others equally ranked players.
Switch version has lower quality assets so that will compensate for sure. Maybe Switch version is not able to load all the assets at the start of the match but simply add them few secs later. This happens on PS4 Pro on some game modes where respawns happens fast.
I love his writing. Heavy Rain is one of my all time favourite games. Wasn't a big fan of Beyond Two Souls though.
