The price is insane. No way I’m touching it until it’s about $50 cheaper. It doesn’t even have regional pricing for my country which makes it extra expensive by comparison.
A lot of it reads as lazy DLC meant to satisfy investors that want “value-adds” without taking a lot of development time. I’d imagine only obsessive fans (admittedly, there are many) would be considering them.
But the fact that it’s a remake of a 20 year old game doesn’t seem like it would affect the value. For reference, the old one was top down with prerendered chibi sprites. The new one is fully 3D with voice acting. It’s a pretty sizable change in appearance, even how the combat functions. $60 is probably normal, though it makes sense that for anyone unsure about it, either play the demo or just wait for it to go on sale.
Man I remember this photo. Bought V for 360, beat it and haven’t touched it since. After Gay Tony and The Lost and Damned I waited for a story expansion that never came.
I bought it, played a little, but was working 60 hour weeks.
Housemate starting playing on my savegame, so when I next got back to it, I had no idea what was going on.
Haven’t gone back to it since, though I have nearly finished IV a few times now.
They’ve both been propped up by pay-to-win bullshit online games that have diluted the formula. I remember when GTA V was new (ish) and while the controls took some getting used to, and some of the minigames were bullshit (Rockstar games have wonky controls), the game was fun as hell. Zero interest in the online stuff. It never appealed to me. I did try Elder Scrolls Online, and also Fallout 76. This online shit makes them money, it’s a surprise they’re even bothering with a GTA VI. The next GTA Online is really what they should be focused on (though I’ll always root for the single player games). After the last couple Fallouts and Starfield, I don’t even have any hope for Elder Scrolls VI. GTA VI at least looks like it might actually be good. But screw paying $100 for it.
I’m out of the loop with GTA VI, but the last I knew of it the only thing they’d released was a cinematic, non-gameplay trailer. Have they released gameplay now?
I see no reason someone shouldn’t be allowed to ask for donations. If you want to accept donations, go for it. There doesn’t need to be a special reason to do so.
Donations should come without obligations though. If someone donates, yay, but donations should never be in exchange for something (that would be a payment).
It really is, i decided to check the price on Wii U and Wii the other day just for a reference and irc it was like 20$ at max. I know they were struggling with the Wii U era, but damn. 40$ is way too big of a jump
Steam Deck 2 is very likely a long way away; they’ve said they won’t be doing minor upgrades—only major ones, and the current models still play most modern games just fine without issue. There’s no reason to wait on a Steam Deck if it’s within your budget.
And there’s the whole issue with a certain buffoon who doesn’t understand how tariffs work and is currently trying to speedrun an economic collapse, so who knows if the hardware components will be available in three years.
However, unless there’s a significant change in games that makes the current Gen unable to play games, I think it’s likely going to be a great device in three years time. I know that I have no plans to upgrade mine.
Well, it seems at least one company has admitted that only focusing on making games high-end games might have been a bit self-defeating when there’s an even bigger market with slightly older tech they could have been selling to. So there’s that.
I also remember reading somewhere that there’s just been a breakthrough in battery tech (It was probably mostly in regards to electric vehicles, but if it can be be applied to smaller devices, that’s also a good start).
Maybe there doesn’t have to be a sacrifice in battery life on the next-gen Steamdeck. It’s small stuff like this that would make me think that maybe the next gen isn’t too far in the future.
But again, what the hell do I know? I’m a PC guy. Fairly happy with my stationary setup.
Looking at how there is still no follow up to the Steam VR and controller any attempts at estimates i doubt are based on any facts. Valve works in ways that don’t follow normal business logic.
It takes a bit to get the swing of what’s happening in battles. It’s not real time and it’s not atb, the mix of the two is great.
I found myself really appreciating the updated content and perspective from the original, but you really don’t need to have played it before.
Every gamer who plays final fantasy knows the basics. Cloud and Arith good, Seperoth bad. But this one expands so much and includes a lot of the story from crisis core and other games in the series.
I get jealous of everyone replaying for the first time. But I’m still looking forward to hearing more about your journey.
I definitely prefer the mix over traditional ATB, and i’m starting to get the hang of it.
I haven’t played much FF before (Played half of the remake on PS4 and then had a brush with 14 with a friend). But with how famous 7 is, i definitely know the basics of the plot
I do hope it eventuates, but…I’ve seen enough ‘credible’ leaks that its right around the corner to last me a lifetime
I hope it arrives for you, because RDR2 is a beautiful game, in its own slow way. Well worth replaying!
I’d love to replay, but I spent so many hours in it. Much like Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk, I think I can’t actually play any more of it because I played so much already
