This looks to be one of those games where you need patience and nerves of steel. Rogue like, Demons Soul like and bullet hell are all nerve racking for me. I'll wait for this one to hit PS Plus to try it out. That is, if I end up getting a PS5.
Sony Exclusives for the PS4 are the very reason I will not be buying a PS5. I always feel like I am watching a movie rather than playing a game. It all started with The Order 1886 game and continued throughout the PS4 life cycle. Death Stranding, I lasted an hour before I turned that off. I want to play games, not watch them.
With all of this garbage of not able to get a PS5 or Series X, I still get Gamepass on my PC. I am thinking my PC will become my go to machine moving forward. Not to mention, the price son PC games drops super fast compared to console. I just picked up a bundle for 30 bucks that gives me Battlefield 4, Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5. That includes all DLC and expansions too. The online multiplayer stays online a lot longer too. Rainbow Six Siege, I always play on PC. Nintendo Switch gives me the best reason to stick with a console since Zelda and Mario games are only on Nintendo consoles.
As a consumer and someone that is careful about which games to buy at full price and invest in, I am more than thankful we have sales and reviews to fall back on. When Days gone released, I looked into it. But, I had read that over 20 hours of the game was dedicated to watching cut scenes and very little actual gameplay was the player actually playing the game. This is a problem I have had with a lot of the games on the PS4 generation. I rented Death Stranding and after one hour of it, I stopped playing. Why? I spent maybe 5 minutes in that hour actually playing the game. The rest was watching cut scenes and movies. So, I was not willing to take that chance with Days Gone. Instead, it hit PS Plus and now I have it. I do have a backlog at this time. So, I have not fired it up. But, the Spring Sale is going on right now and I got Mortal Kombat XL for $6.00. That is what some gamers want, a deal and not to raked over the coals with overpriced DLC. Now, I also invested in Mortal Kombat 11 with the Spring Sale as well. I bought the Standard Vanilla Edition for $20.00 and got the Ultimate DLC pack for $25.00. I felt it was a good investment since I have everything the game has to offer now. This guy can stick it because not everyone wants to drop $60.00 each time a game releases. I dropped $60.00 on God Of War on release day and I regret it. Games was not the same as the old ones from the PS3 era and it was really tough on the easy difficulty. I'll stick to waiting for deals, unless I know I will like the game beyond doubt.
I have played ESO since it launched way back when. It took them a while to gain a footing like Blizzard has done with WOW. But, it feels like everything is just being recycled only in a different area. At least it requires no subscription like WOW and FF14.
This is not a game that needs to be remastered. It is too soon to do that for this game. But, I gave up with TLOU when part 2 came out. Did not even fire it up or try it because I am not going to be pressured to watch or accept the LGBTQ crap in it. I played the first one and thought it was a masterpiece. After part 2 came out, can't stomach it anymore.
