I think most fans of the series would want fiddly character sheets as an option. Shame they're distancing themselves from that kind of RPG staple. Probably can't be bothered to try and cope with the levels of complexity it raises.
I don't mind young Bond at all, catch him at the start of his career. Why not. I just hope they make it fun and lean into the classic tropes.
I know what you mean, but I wouldn't be opposed to seeing her play a slightly more mature version of the character. She's only 42 so still fine for all the action scenes.
It's not news to anyone but they desperately need to bite the bullet and switch to a new engine. You can't keep on frantically polishing the same turd when the rest of the world moved on to much better things long ago. It's wild that they insist on doing so.
Citizencon is a bit on the nose isn't it?
An open world game that didn't use the scope of the world to pad it out with typical filler, but used it as an epic background for a focused storyline would be interesting and refreshing.
It's not like they haven't tried, they had a couple of cracks at it and it didn't work for them. It's a massive financial commitment creating games for a one off device, especially considering they already do it for PSVR.
No doubt there's room for improvement in future Portals but it's a solid product that sold great, and obviously being able to tap into cutting edge console tech on a handheld is a big selling point.
If the new protagonist was a bloke I doubt there'd have been a ripple of complaint or people pining after Jin Sakai. However I understand the complaints and to an extent agree with them in a general sense.
Having watched Blue Eye Samurai though there's definitely a legitimate case to be made for a badass female samurai being a great main character.
"You're right how dare Xbox advertise video games on their video game console. Why's that a bad thing please explain."
A: people have been enjoying gaming for decades without adverts and we are all used to that.
B: Everyone hates ads.
C: It's an extremely slippery slope. If people start making excuses for and suggest they're willing to accept advertising in gaming then that will be exploited to ridiculous level...
I suppose it was the future of PS in that it showed them what not to do.
Spending the money on a SP game instead would have been a better choice is something of an understatement.
Not a scam but a massive waste of time and money.
Definitely been too much of that kind of thing. Feels like there's been a lot of resting on laurels and not much interest in pushing forward.
I haven't bothered buying a PS5, I can afford it I just don't feel like there's any compelling reason to get one. So from my point of view a PS5 Pro isn't necessary.
I think this will be the first generation of Sony consoles that I'll skip entirely. Bring on the PS6 and unmissable exclusives to go with it.
I bought the first game but was disappointed with it. I wanted to build a park from scratch within a budget but it was either bland scenarios or sandbox mode. My fault for not doing the research I suppose.
Surely games like this shine when you have to start from nothing and gradually work your way up.
It doesn't make it any better if they aren't devs being fired.
I don't think it'll sell well. Not so much because of the price although that's a factor but because it's unnecessary. The base PS5 isn't routinely being pushed to its limits so what's the point in an upgrade.
I guess the thing is that it needs to be something new. When it comes to GaaS if the pitch is "it's like xxx but" then forget it. I hope Sony understands/has recently learned that.
Watched the trailers for Marathon and Fairgame$ and of the two the former is the one that has a shot at succeeding I would say. Very strong aesthetic and solid pedigree. Fairgame$ looks about as lame as the stupid name suggests.
Either way I'm looking forward to Sony shelving their temporary obsession with GaaS and getting on with what people actually want.
It feels strange to be pleased about Sony taking a substantial hit but with Ryan gone I think it's fair to say that this will only help them get back on track. PS and MP can and will work but not like this.
You're boring. If it's paid PR work you need to sharpen up.
