seems like charisma is the super stat.

itsJoelle,

Same as in 5e, so it makes sense.

In games where you spend a lot of time in coversations it makes sense. Fallout New Vegas is one of my favorite games but if you do nothing but max Speech it turns into easy mode.

The truly horrifying combo is Battlemaster+Gloomstalker+Thief with a couple specific hand crossbows and the sharpshooter feat. All that Dex + 15 AC from Yuan-Ti scale mail they sell at last light means 4 attacks per round each and 20+ AC.

Oh, and stealth, and lockpicking. Astarion? Never heard of him.

Had to use a bonus action for something? Then you've got battlemaster ranged moves to fear, trip, or disarm. It's disgusting.

Good game, probably worth your time. I enjoyed it quite a bit on PC.

Can’t wait for the switch release so I can heat my home this winter.

My brother bought this for me for Christmas last year and it’s a ridiculously fun game. The mods are a lot of fun as well.

o0joshua0o, do games w Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 builds on accessibility in previous titles and introduces new features

Insomniac has really raised the bar for accessibility features. Even though I don’t necessarily need them, I love that these same features give me the ability to tweak so many aspects of the gameplay to my liking.

iamtrashman1312,

Hear hear, games finally catching on and giving me the ability to turn off screenshake was a godsend

conciselyverbose, do games w Sony Pictures Core, formerly Bravia Core, launches on PS5 and PS4 consoles; exclusive benefits including early access to select Sony Pictures films

If you’re a PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe member, you’ll get access to a curated catalog of up to 100 movies***** through the Sony Pictures Core app to stream on demand from the Sony Pictures library as part of your membership. The catalog, which will be ad-free and updated periodically, features movies such as Looper, Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, Elysium, and Resident Evil Damnation.** There will also be additional benefits for all PlayStation Plus members, so stay tuned for more details.

Still not worth the price increases, but I could see that being a meaningful value add to some.

Still looks like an air purifier / conditioner unfortunately.

I was holding off with upgrading my PS4 Pro with SSD but when I saw new PS5 leaks I went with XSX. Sorry, that thing has no place in an adult living room lol.

Fridge gang vs wifi router gang

Molecular0079,

Yeah, why they have to make it so curvy in the first place? And then they have to add a stupid extra base just to get it to not roll around. Too many designers in the kitchen IMHO.

I also like making dumb decisions based purely off of something or someone’s looks

I’ll take the bait. I consider both consoles evenly matched but from the perspective of Sony diehard it’s quite attractive value proposition:

  • I don’t care about first party exclusives because I’ve played enough Naughty Dog games by now. Third party ones will come eventually as always.
  • I didn’t own any Xbox consoles up until now so it’s a treasure trove thanks to backwards compatibility. Especially when plenty of X360 games run 4k60.
  • Game Pass is cool although new Microsoft games seem to be released in quite barebone state.
  • The console itself can be quite cheap where I live, got an XSX bundle with Diablo 4 for ~$450. Game Pass Ultimate with Live Gold tricks is like ~$70 for 2 years. If you want to get really cheap, region change to Turkey, buy rechargeable Visa and enjoy everything being -50% off all the time.

Yeah those are all solid reasons to buy then. I agree with you fully.

I prefer the curves though and that’s where my argument ends so you win lol

They really mixed it up.

kaitco,

The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models. There are four separate cover panels, with the top portion in a glossy look, while the bottom remains in matte.

Hm…I mean, I’m not sure I’d call it a “new look”, but I suppose there are some changes.

prograhammingdev, do games w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

Oof, that one with the blu ray drive looks far worse now.

Kolgeirr, do games w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn’t wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.

Molecular0079,

Yeah, seriously. The addon drive looks uglier than the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Usernamealreadyinuse, do games w PlayStation Blog: New Look for PS5 console this holiday season

So only a different form but no upgrades?

NOT_RICK,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

None in terms of extra power, but from what I read there was a die shrink so the console should use less electricity and run cooler.

freebread,

The SSD also goes from 825GB to 1TB

NOT_RICK,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

I forgot they weren’t 1TB from the gate. That was an odd choice

the_el_man,

The odd choice was not enabling the m.2 from launch. I’m not sure building to a price is odd given VERY few gen 4 drives were around at the time and the memory prices were INSANE at that time.

Kind of amazing they have gone from circa £140 to £35 for 1tb in less than 3 years.

I first, I thought this was consolidating the line to a single SKU, and letting you add the drive yourself for a small premium. Instead, this looks like this is a new model with a reworking interior to save a bit on cost, and heat/power.

The one good thing, is that now every PS5 is a “Physical Edition.” It is also way more likely in the decades to come you can get a 3rd party drive, and hack it to work. Without the size or soldiering being an issue, it is more likely we can see 3rd party replacements.

johnthedoe,

That’s what I thought too. If I was getting one now id be inclined to get the digital plus add on drive so the drive is more replaceable.

I was trying to wait for the slim but got an og a few months ago during a really good sale. I’m not too bummed about it as I thought it’d be slimmer.

BorgDrone,

This is just a first step into finally getting rid of physical media.

It makes the digital-only version more attractive: it’s cheaper and you don’t really risk not having a drive as you can always add it later if you really need it.

Lots of people will get the cheaper version and never get the drive. Then in a year or two they will quietly stop selling the drive due to low demand. For PS6, they will leave out the optical drive because the majority of PS5 owners didn’t have an optical drive anyway.

It’s also low-risk for Sony, they now get a good picture of the demand for physical media, if they miscalculated they can just keep selling the drive.
