By LabouredPatriot Go To PostSony presumably didn’t invest because it mostly won’t matter in the next year or so, assume their back compat approach is predicated on the same notion. I get it but they’ll eventually need to sort it by the end of the gen for the next crossover.I've been assuming this is their reasoning but it's weird how it's still a step backwards from what they were already doing years ago.

it is incredibly dumb though

They sold something like 100 million PS4s, no? That would leave them with plenty of users that may want to transition over and keep their game progress.
By Bungie Go To PostThey sold something like 100 million PS4s, no? That would leave them with plenty of users that may want to transition over and keep their game progress.The number of those who buy cross-gen games with cross-save, playing on both consoles, is a much smaller number than that though

There's no assumption that this would affect 100 million people. Rather that it's a huge base that could be affected across any number of games
And #crossgen isn't disappearing any time soon, that was a lesson some should definitely not have forgotten

By Xpike Go To Postwill i really spend $50 just to get dante on smt3Unless I am looking at it wrong $50 wont get you Dante. $60 at a minimum
yes, yes i will
By sy Go To PostStop living in the pastBeen sayin’, sy. Got tired of the remakes last gen and even more now that they are clearly hear to stay. But people keep gassing up these old ass games with a shiny new coat of paint and they sell. Shit’s pathetic, make new games FFS! Sony could easily had delayed the PS5 to work on any issues until this Fall and dropped the price of the PRO and no one could really tell the difference between PRO games and XsX games. WOAT console gen.
By Bungie Go To PostWhy all these gamer people so corn.
I won't pay for Dante but only because I've played with him already so I wanna try Raidou
if you've never played it before then I absolutely recommend you get him, he's fucking awesome and his story almost makes too much sense lol.

By sy Go To PostThat Lion King was one of two games I had for the GBA I found.if it weren't for the skip level cheat/code I would've never finished it. Those fucking monkeys...I know them well
Was watching a developer with Remedy talk about Xbox Series S and X, explaining that making games for the S isn't just scaling down res and textures in order to run the same game on it and X. He said the differences are so huge, people would be astounded, and implied that it's actually compromising the true next-gen consoles and holding them back. I got a very distinct feeling that he was pretty unhappy with MS' decision to release two Xboxes. The convo was related to porting and upgrading Control to next-gen.
I'm going to wager a guess and say that the PS5 will be seeing more and more timed exclusive titles from 3rd parties, as it's likely some devs won't want to be incumbered by having to develop around constraints of the Series S. And will eventually port down a year later.
Edit: Had to add "timed" in there.

Unless we are talking about a switch vs Pro difference, it's very unlikely this happens. It's just easier to half ass the Series S version than leave money on the table, and more third parties will not be going exclusive unless they get a fat check from Sony.
And even then, we are seeing more and more games like Doom, Apex, The Witcher do absolutely everything possible to release on Switch, not less. They might be late ports or like I said above, really watered down versions but I don't see the doom and gloom scenarios where third parties are abandoning a console because daddy Sony only has 1 sku so far.

It already happens constantly, and most of the time it has nothing to do (directly) with how powerful one console is over the other, mostly manpower and resources on things like optimization, QA, etc. You see it with all the time with the late PC ports and with how supply strained the new consoles (and chips in general) are, is there even a rush to make all your shit push the top hardware only? Even first parties are gonna do cross-gen for another year at least.
There has been a real incentive to make all your shit scalable for many years now, to be in as many platforms as possible and well, I'm not a developer, true, but it feels like it has never been easier to do it with all the options and well developed engines out there. At the same time, yeah, the more configs you have to account for, well, it definitely adds work and I can see how that could be annoying.

Damn, Noita been out on early access for so long that I forgot about it. The Swapper was a great combination of puzzle design, atmosphere and interesting science fiction writing. Noita mostly looked like magic based rogue-Terraria which is not my thing. The tech is all sorts of impressive tho. Full physics simulation in a pixel graphics environment is kind of incredible.
But yeah, it's the main problem with game pass games innit... you kinda don't want to buy DLC for a game there. Instead, I'll probably wait till the end of the year, see if we get one or more add-ons and just buy at a discount on Steam for another playthrough. At least in my case, the regional pricing makes it a much better proposition.
By blackace Go To PostCK3 fans, anybody buy Northern Lords?No, but I did see a guy play it for like an hour tho :P It seems like a good addition if you are thinking of doing a new Viking playthrough. Definitely the most interesting thing about it (imo) is the Adventurer trait, where you can literally just uproot and go conquer/settle a kingdom in a different part of the world altogether. It beefs up some stuff I already found fun if a bit limited like raids and the Scandinavian religions, stuff like human sacrifice and duels now have more of a use. It also has a "poet" trait and procedurally generates poetry which you can use to diss your rivals or enchant your friends, which I just find fucking fantastic.

It's ~$25 on Steam with the discount and the xp is like $8 for me. Pricing is not really the issue, I'm just not gonna play it right now (I have like 50 hours already; most of it was a Nord campaign) and they usually bundle the DLCs as the come along, so a future sale bundle when there's more content will do just fine. This thing is gonna get DLC for the next 5 years or so, I'm just not in a rush to play every piece of content as it comes out.
I appreciate the looking out tho.
