Well an update just went to PS5 today. Patch notes were on PS5 but they haven't been updated on the NMS website as yet.

Usually, they're simultaneous.

As a long time Dragon Quest fan, the answer is yes. Grinding is a lot of fun.

There's no guarantee of a pro.

However, the PS5 is a very powerful machine. You may want to think about what your visual interface is going to be.

IIRC, the PS5 does 4k, 1440, and lower. But you can get TVs that are 120hz refresh rate and it fits that too.

What I enjoyed about the column is that you can see the journalist go through the cognitive dissonance between "critics are better at reviewing" and "maybe these players know something I don't." And then realize that they may not have the whole picture.

This is refreshing to see.

We may have the same type of thing happen with Skull and Bones.

They want ad revenue but then betray people who whitelist the site by putting up ads that block the entire site. Then, when you X out the ad, google wants feedback. "Ad blocked content" results in a giant white box blocking content that reads "Google Closed this Ad."

Unreal.

Physical discs are nothing more than a download code on the disc.

Maybe Larian will be different and you can watch that ultraspeed disc to SSD, but I doubt it.

My Horizon FW didn't even have the disc (though it had the steelbook), just a DL code.

Clarification for #1. You can hold down a button to board your ship from anywhere.

The rest are pretty spot on.

What is weird is that you can have your crew fire muskets at the opposing ships too. I miss the boarding of black flag.

Unfortunately, this is how management thinks. Big data convinces them that they are "right" because of nonsensical numbers. They ignore trends and what is happening because they only see the bottom line.

Broken at launch, GAaS, with Microtransactions... is the score a 1?
Nope. Avg score is a 9. What is going on? Am I in the twilight zone?

But, why are these guys getting a pass? The game is broken. People paid money to play this game and it is broken at launch.

Average of 9 on review scores...for a broken game.

Why is everyone so forgiving of games launching in completely broken states? Why does HD2 get a pass?

I played 1 and liked it. I looked forward to this, and it is unplayable.

There were other games this week that have gotten a ton of hate, some deserved, some not so much, but this game is just broken.

That is a fantastic interview. Physint is a love letter to the fans. What a legend.

MS is doing a handheld (rumor?) probably akin to Steamdeck. They keep the game pass.

I doubt Gamepass goes to PS or Switch. That doesn't mean the games can't go there.

There will be a ton of outdated comments come next week.

I have the platinum for DS, it wasn't "silly trash " at all. It all makes sense within the confines of that universe. It is easily one of my favorite games and I've been playing since the 70s.

"Scruffy looking nerf herder" sounds silly out of context, but in Star Wars, it's delivered flawlessly by an incredible actor and it fits the Star Wars universe.

The writing in the trailer is incredibly DS.

So it&#...

TheGamer shows some predictably bad writing.... every time.

And Final Fantasy XVI is one of the best in a long time. (Not disparaging the other releases) it is just better than so many great FF games.

And perhaps Elder Scrolls 6?

Yes.
