I don't literally mean standing by one rock and grinding it for resources for hours. From what I have seen, it can also be automated. But I like those resource-gathering games. Minecraft, Astroneer, etc. It's one of the many things you can do in this game.
I guess you don't like games like Diablo 4, Final Fantasy, or any Souls game where you have to "grind" for loot, experience, and levels to improve your character.
I was thinking this too. I can see myself spending 10s of hours just grinding resources on some far-off planet I made home. Feels like Christmas is coming early for me.
Why does it matter? Just play games. Stop worrying about what these video game company execs are doing.

"Ohhhh so its Sony's fault that MS is doing this to the industry?"
😂 Get off the internet, kid. We've gotten GoW:Ragnarok, Totk, and Starfield in a few months to mention a few that have released and will release in less than one year. What the hell are you talking about? At least you can play Starfield on other platforms that are not Xbox. Can you say the same about the others?
You should have mentioned Starfield. Then you would really have that "gotcha" reply.
@Sonic1881
The "review score" talking point, I see. What's in review scores? Actual quality of a movie, game, album, etc.? Or are we talking about the prestige of a name? There are a lot of games that are the same, dull, mundane game from all companies that rest on their laurels. Hell, you said it yourself, you expect 9s and 10s. Based on what?
@Sonic1881
Final Fantasy 16? That franchise is a shell of its former self. I mean, what's it trying to be now? What started out as a quality and story-driven jrpg is now what, Devil May Cry if rumors are to be believed? I'll stick to Dragon Quest.
Imagine signing a lifelong contract that Sony probably wants without thinking ahead of the changes the video game industry will see in 5 years. Microsoft can actually be the ones to use the whole "protection" false narrative Sony is throwing out there.

And yet after multiple complaints, nothing has been done. Why is that? Could it be that those that are against the merger and against sexual harassment can't, and have done... nothing. Apparently you believe it doesn't take anything extreme to have a change that can actually affect a publisher the size of Activision-Blizzard. You are probably ok with the status quo. Maybe you alone can make a difference by not buying their games in protest. How naive.
How is it game over? Have you seen the arguments from both sides? The inclusion of Switch receiving COD that has how many owners that will be able to play COD? The employees that are saved from sexual harassment scandals under the current leaders, unionization, backing of gaming CEOs (Newell, Zelnick), etc. If it were just gaming related, sure. But Activision has such a stain on it, new leadership is needed.

If the doubt was towards me, here's my PSN ID (RuthlessNezz83). Now doubt that. Gahahahahaha!
Heaven forbid someone doesn't bend over for Sony consoles that have left the buyer disappointed.
The beauty of the Xbox/Windows ecosystem makes having an Xbox important if you are not always at home. I plan on playing Starfield on a 4090 if I'm lucky. But there are some weekends I am not home. Luckily for me, I have a Series X at my girlfriend's home. So as is the case for most Xbox 1st party games, I can continue my progress at her house and not feel like letting her spend the weekend alone.
And before you ask why she can't come home with me certain weeke...
I'm in the same boat. Selling my PS5 also. This gen is weird. It's like consoles are not required to play AAA games. Sure, there is the period of time a game launches on a Sony console and then PC months or a few years later. But with patience, you can have a better experience performance and visual wise.
Every time someone uses sales I just use the Toyota vs Ferrari example. Toyota always will sell more. Both are great. But we know which of the two is better.
@S2Killinit
That's Tencent. Blaming Microsoft shows how hurt you are that your favorite console could not afford to buy Bethesda.

Talking about popup or the lack of proper reflection updating, the green car at the 54 second mark has a texture morph or do something taken out of R&C: Rift Apart and at the 1:21 mark, those reflections on all the cars in the tunnel look horrid.
@PrinceAli
You sound like a complete buffoon. Going by your typing skills, if you did study what you claim to have studied, it must've been at some community college under a high school basement.
Are you trying to say Horizon 5 and the series as a whole are more along the lines of a R&C title? Just because a game uses a more colorful palette and higher contrast/saturation doesn't mean it's more on the cartoonish side. Hell, look at fighters. Was Str...
@PrinceAli
What are you talking about? There's a reason why people prefer HDR over resolution. The extension of the color gamut adds colors to what we are more likely to see in real life. Hence why a game could look great without HDR but have too much contrast making it look cartoony. Hell even techradar says it.
"HDR is bringing media closer to what the human eye sees, and by doing so, is creating more realistic images, from scenes bleached with sunlight ...
Who blocked DLSS? It's he said she said. There are articles where AMD says Bethesda can add whatever upscaling technique they want. Just prioritize FSR. They should get something in return for partnering with Bethesda. What would be the point if both sides don't benefit from a deal?
Before you say "source" like the majority that are too lazy to look it up for themselves, the site starts with a w and ends with an h. Not doing the work for the misinformed. ...
