I'm sure there will be some "one year later, Deathloop feels like the experience I always wanted it to be" articles. They'll probably come from the same people who wrote the "Deathloop isn't clicking, but it sure makes me appreciate Dishonored 2/Prey/Prey's Mooncrash DLC" articles last year.
Really fun so far, I just hope I can find populated servers for it in a few months.
Lol so how long until the first "one year later and on Gamepass, I finally understand Deathloop" or "returning a year later, Deathloop finally clicked" article? And which site will it come from?
2K23, a very casual friendly game, sold more than three times as many copies on PS5 as it did on PS4.
Well, technically they are under an existing contractual obligation to keep it there for awhile.
The Community: Cyberpunk sucks and is broken, we don't want to play it and we won't pay CDPR money for a bunch of DLC since the base game was broken!
Also the Community: What? Cyberpunk will only have one major paid DLC expansion?! We had fully planned on buying multiple DLC expansions! What about the roadmap?
Basing your review primarily on the price of the game is ridiculous. It very clearly stamps the reviewer as someone looking for immediate clicks, rather than as a legitimate critic.
When someone writes a good review focused on the game itself, it is evergreen. I can go back now and read well-written reviews of classic games and they still hold up, whether the particular game is now $200 because it is now rare and isn't available digitally (like some PS1 games) or if it...
No only Sony games are $70, remember?
"God of War Ragnarok, a game that has not even released yet, has the upgrade path."
Dude, is it possible to miss the point more than you just did? An upgrade is reasonable-and should be expected-for a game that is cross gen, or when a last-gen game gets a minor patch a year or two later. Ragnarok is a perfect example-it is a cross gen game where you can upgrade the PS4 version you paid $60 for to the PS5 version that costs $70.
What you are aski...
This upgrade argument is getting really absurd. I can understand the argument that this remake should have carried a budget price (i.e. $40-50), but the idea that a company is going to offer a $10 upgrade for a game that is 8-9 years old (depending on which version you are talking about) is ridiculous. Both of the old versions have for a long time been available in bargain bins and have frequently been available for next to nothing on PSN sales. It's totally unreasonable to expect a $10 u...
Money is worth less now. Both generally due to hyperinflation, and also the buying sprees in the gaming industry have upped the value of these types of companies. There's no way Sony could get Insomniac for that price now.
It is a little amusing how people in the US seem to be most upset about the price increase, even though it doesn't apply to them.

Exactly. I'd rather pay for a game to have it on Steam than have it for free on Epic. It's such a nuisance that Epic made a game store.
Yes. I love PlayStation but I can't describe how much I hate having my PC games split across multiple launchers. On my most recent PC I just limited it to Steam, GOG, and Xbox (and even that is annoying). GOG is necessary to play some older games that aren't on Steam, and I use the Xbox app because I have Gamepass. But at this point if something requires anything else but those, like Epic or Origin, I just won't play it.
This was one of the first, if not the first, Gameboy games I played all the way through.
I mean, this is pretty inevitable. Look how many times Netflix has raised prices. I don't think it will be immediately though.
Lol well that's one way to help make sure supply can meet demand.
And then Denuvo makes the game run worse, so the people who pirate the game end up with a better version than the ones who buy it legitimately.
People also focus way too much now on the starting price. Unlike in the PS3/360 era, when a game would release at $60 and then even a year later you were lucky to find a used copy of a game for $45, now games are routinely placed on significant sales even a few months after they launch. Putting aside the fact that $70 now is actually a much lower price than $60 was in 2006 due to inflation, games also drop to $40 and below much sooner.
Yep. I won't say it's underrated because then people will just say "but it got a high metascore!", but it's definitely underappreciated in terms of how many people actually played it and talk about it.
It's literally exactly the game people say they want: single player focused, no MTs, original IP and not a sequel, no seasons, and it runs really well (with the exception of some stuttering issues on the PC version that had to be patched). People con...
