Really? The best Sony can do is 25% off on these bigger games? They’re just convincing me to wait for PC sales and not buy the PS5 games. I’m not paying nearly full price for games I’ve already beaten. In the future, I’ll just forgo them on PS5 and wait for the PC release…
I am spending more and more on older games these days. Every new full price game I have bought has disappointed me massively. I pumped hundreds of hours into Grim and the expansions for less than £20 in sales. Currently playing through shadow tactics: blades of the shogun. I bought that and the DLC Aiko’s choice for £8 earlier this week. There are a ton of these in the series, so i am set for a long time it seems.
My last full game price experience was Hogwart’s legacy. I have 108 minutes played. I reckon I have actually played 15 minutes in that. The rest was just video after video of story telling. I am normally someone who skips cutscenes, so this is a really bad match for me. Hogwarts has an 84% positive rating. A lot of people like this sort of stuff, just not me unfortunately.
Server lists have it’s place and I hate how many current multiplayer games don’t expose it (they most definetly have it for development purposes).
But most people playing these competetive games want a rank to compare themselves and also be able to rank up. They also want to be placed in a match according to their skill group eithout wauting for someone to leave. A server list isn’t compatible with those features.
At least that’s what I gathered from people online and my friends who were opposed to messing around in a private lobby. Luckily CS:2 will most definetly have private server support with server lists and mods.
Bethesda games are full of bugs, ill wait a year or so before i decide to buy it or not. Dont get me wrong, FO4 is still my favourite game of all time, so im sure ill like it. I bought FO76 at half price and i still feel ripped off, so I will wait and see how they screw up starfield.
K…I’ll wait for actual gameplay videos before I jump on this hype. Zero trust in the gaming industry, or any industry anymore. Too many pricks lying to steal money
I don’t think that one will be missed much. Unless you’re an addict to WarHammer, AFAICT it’s a poorly ported mobile game that’s filled with DLC and monetization.
Here are my recommandations on what is better on PC because of the advantage of mouse and keyboard vs controller by genre:
Strategy: the first thing I wanted to do when I bought my PC is to play Age of Empire 2 and Starcraft 2 and they still are the top games of the genre. It’s night and day compared to their console games like Halo Wars. I recommend also the Civilisation series.
Simulators: Cities Skylines and Microsoft flight simulator are fun games and nothing looks like it on console.
MOBA: AFAIK, MOBAs like DOTA 2 and League of Legends only exist on PC because it’s unplayable on controller. I don’t like these kinds of games, but it’s still something that you won’t find on console.
FPS: A mouse let you have better control on your aim, but it’s less relevant in games with crossplay multiplayer where the aim assist on controller is strong like in Apex Legends and Halo Infinite. Recently, a lot of people enjoy Battlebit.
Although Cities Skylines is the goat city builder it’s not the cheapest game in the world with all of the DLC which adds a huge amount to the game. I’d definitely wait it out with CS2 right on the horizon. If you can get the first game on a wicked sale it’s still worth it but CS2 is looking amazing!
There’s a difference between the gameplay and the greedy, manipulative monetization.
The gameplay itself is solid and polished better than just about any multiplayer game out there - anyone who tries to argue otherwise is letting their (justified) anger toward Activision/Blizzard influence their judgement.
The monetization feels gross and disrespectful of the playerbase. It’s like we have this well-made AAA quality game, but it’s inside a vegas casino. Even if you enjoy it, you have to deal with this unsettling feeling of being scammed the whole time that you play.
