    PlayStation Official PS | PS Studios Megathread, v.5

    This is one reason it took me 8 straight hours to beat Isshin. I was never good at the counters and couldn't deal with his lightening. If there was one boss I wish I retained the muscle memory for it would be that one. How fun he was. I watched a few other videos on NRFTW. One was more positive...

    PlayStation Official PS | PS Studios Megathread, v.5

    That’s a good point I didn’t consider Val. The level of production definitely seems like it warrants a larger price tag. It’s much too polished. Fextra has a video on it describing how the game plays and it seems very similar to POE 2’s methodical approach which is really appealing to me...

    Is this PC only or could you sign up for a beta code? This and POE2 will be taking up a lot of my time when they release.

    PlayStation Official PS | PS Studios Megathread, v.5

    I’m level 40 and have only placed 1 Portcrystal. I’ve basically been hoofing it across the map while also taking some ox carts here and there. It was fun the first 10-15 hours because there was some actual danger. Then, I got too OP and now it became a ridiculous repetitive chore. In Elden Ring...

    To be completely honest, I regret picking up DD II over Ronin. There's a fun game in there somewhere but it just feels like a complete slog most of the time. You'll do a side mission or traverse a large tunnel, get to the chest and get some dinky potion. Majority of good weapons and armor are...

    PlayStation Official PS | PS Studios Megathread, v.5

    Evil West is pretty linear as is the Uncharted Series. Little Nightmares 1 & 2, A Plagues Tale and maybe Control? For Side Scrolling Shovel Knight, however, you can choose which levels to do at some points iirc. Those are a bit harder because a lot of side scrolling games fall into the...

    Personally, I'd like to have someone run the company who actually plays games themselves. That way they can feel the pain of fetch quests, escort missions, lousy chest rewards, repetitive dialogue, unfinished games, insane levels of grinds and prioritizing graphics over gameplay. There...

    Multiplatform Official Dragon's Dogma 2 Discussion

    If you're going to make fast travel some niche thing in a game, you better be sure to build a world that has exciting things to do. So far, Dragons Dogma isn't fulfilling that requirement. Traveling feels like an ARPG. You walk 15 feet, Goblins, you walk another 15 feet Harpies, you walk another...

    Multiplatform Official Dragon's Dogma 2 Discussion

    Just started playing heavily yesterday and every time I hear them chatter about the damn ladder I tell them to “go” and I’m finding myself running in circles. It’s annoying af. I’m really enjoying the game so far. I love the team element as most 3rd person RPGs are solo adventures. I’m mixing...

    Television Netflix - 3 Body Problem

    Again, not an apt comparison, they’re two very different things. Bruce Springsteen is the show. He’s the narrative. You’re buying a ticket to see him. Luo is a random physics guy who just so happened to have the idea of the Dark Forest. You’re not reading the book for Luo Ji, you’re reading the...

    Television Netflix - 3 Body Problem

    Of course people would freak out if Harry Potter was reimagined, it’s a multi-billion dollar franchise. He’s a house hold name. Also, the narrative is built around the character and changing him would fundamentally change that narrative. The same can’t be said for Luo Ji. He’s a character to...

    I don't think they left out Luo Ji, they just recast his character into Saul. The meeting with Ye Wenjie was a dead giveaway. I thought that was one of the cooler moments in the show. Wang Miao in the books, imo, wasn't that interesting of a character. To me it seemed like he was there just move...

    Television Netflix - 3 Body Problem

    Just finished it tonight. In my opinion, the series deserves a second season. Some characters had strong moments (Ye, Saul, and Will), while others felt weaker (mainly Auggie). Da Shi was awesome. I liked how they split the characters from the books, making them more personal. After finishing...

    I'll need to research which part it us but iirc, at the time, the problem still wasn't fixed. A few people were stuck and reached out to Bend and nothing happened then. So yea, it sounds like I would have to start a new game.

    Definitely sticking with it. Although slow, it’s got some good parts.

    Television Netflix - 3 Body Problem

    Really loved the first book. I thought it was an awesome story. The Dark Forrest seems kind of slow but I’m only 120 pages in. Currently the show is sitting at a nice 75% with 20 reviews on RT.

    It had to do I believe with jumping over or pushing a car away after you infiltrate their facility through some back alley. I'll have to load it up and see if they fixed it.

    What are you playing? v.10 (Red Falcon Edition)

    Yea, I've beat DC quite a few times. It's a fun game. While it has some MV aspects to it, it lacks gated backtracking and an interconnected world. Not to mention you lose map progression when you die. Personally, I enjoy MVs much more than I do Rouge's but I'd be open for a game that can mix the...
