By DY_nasty Go To PostAfter hearing about teraflops and cocaine laced SSDs for months, I'm more than content saying how much of a wet fart its all beenAhaha
The vast majority of my ps5's hours have gone to games that belong on the last platform or straight up switch ports
At least we got the DualSense out of it
I mean, the SSD on PS5 is fucking great. Load times on native games are very close to non-existent.
It's the software which has been disappointing

Lots of great games this generation considering there was a 2 year global plague period.
matter of fact, my backlog has been debilitating.

By Zabojnik Go To PostWe must be playing wildly different games. AutoHDR / RTX HDR has been a net positive in virtually every game I've used it in, including Wukong.I'm quite a stickler for proper calibration, disliked autoHDR for that reason.

Almost done with Kunitsu-Gami Path of the Goddess, and it's a genuinely fantastic game. Lovely art and music, creative enemies and units, and well paced. It finds ways to keep it interesting all the way through.
Honestly one of the best things I've played this year.

By Dazenheimer Go To Postwhat does that mean?The games he liked this gen are not next gen exclusives
Dy try Returnalš„ŗ
By Hitch Go To PostThe load times in Spiderman 2 are seriously impressive tbfYou know which game also has instante load times? Balatro.
Shame the game's a bit shit.

By DY_nasty Go To Postim not talking about great games being out, im talking about great games that are only a thing due to the next ps5 and xbox lolremember when i posted that very few games after the ps2/xbox/gcn/dreamcast era actually made use of all that horsepower to give new kinds of gameplay experiences? yeah. this seems to be the kind of thing i was getting at.
By Dazenheimer Go To Postwhat does that mean?
Most of the great games are cross gen outside of Baldurs Gate. There was basically no point in this gen since you can play damn near everything on PS4 and x1
Given the sales split between S and X. If the Series S didnāt exist then Microsoft would be launching all their games on the PS5 day one to claw back as much money as possible.
I think the Series S is cool any way. Cheap entry point in to the current gen thatās good enough.

By C4-621 Go To PostYeah. I miss AA games the mostššš¾
We all miss the AA/middleware games.
PS2 era was great for random third person shooters and beat em ups designed entirely around a single gimmick. And theyād always end up in the 2 for Ā£20 section of Woolworths.

Had a whole thesis typed up to respond to everyone. But I'll just say. What is considered AA now was AAA two gens ago.
Meeting the frogboiled standards of the modern day gamer takes more resource and capital.

By Patriotism Go To PostPlenty of aa on pc.We want them on console too.
By Scum Go To PostYouāve had two AA games already this year. Take Stellarblade and Wukong and be satisfied

I want Capcom AA god dammit

Inshallah
By HottestGrapes Go To PostYouāve had two AA games already this year. Take Stellarblade and Wukong and be satisfiedThey do play like PS2 games but I wouldn't call them AA
Soulsikes are normally painfully AA but I do enjoy them. Definitely gonna try Enotria lmao
Feel like this gen has been pretty good, not a tonne of exclusives, but I just don't get why I should ever give a shit about that.

They have AA vibes but AAA graphics.

I donāt think this gen has been bad for games. Itās the gen that finally got open world games right with BOTW/TOTK and Elden Ring. I have too much good shit play, I canāt keep up with it all.
Had 16 days off work and completed nothing, but Iāve played a lot of different games. New and old, had a good time with all of them.
I feel like you could never buy a AAA game and still have a great time. Thereās indie shit and then even smaller published games like Sifu. Thereās a lot of option these days and the same shit that was being released back then is still being released. Only difference is we are older and standards have changed seeing what games were possible of.
I do think there is a lot of what would be considered quality A and AA games on PS5 (and the others) but the problem is it is all digital or only available online and a vast majority have no marketing and no coverage by any media outlets so you are left to trying to figure it out by yourself. If you walk into a store you see like 20 games and and they are always the same as the retail space has shrunk considerably.
By Patriotism Go To PostPlenty of aa on pc.Yup. I literally just talked about Kunitsu-Gami.
Recently, there's been Flintlock, Dungeons of Hinterberg, Creatures of Ava, Robocop... and I mean, yeah, some people would argue that's not AA, just indie punching a little above, instead of big developer doing smaller stuff. But then you get 6 hour games like Senua's Saga with multi-million dollar budgets, big publisher but it's still a [small] AAA game somehow, and it's never gonna touch 200m budget AAA like Spider-Man or God of War.
It's just a dumb, almost meaningless line with how diverse the landscape is nowadays. A 60mb, sub $100k budget game is GOTY #Balatro.

I just started Hades 2. I like everything about this game more than Hades, with the exception of the weapon selection. I don't have the variants unlocked yet tho, so time will tell.

i didn't like the starting weapon layout as much either, but there's waaay more options for builds as things settle in.
By JesalR Go To PostWhat's the state of Hades 2 these days? Still worth waiting until 1.0?its fantastic as is - but considering how much was under the hood with hades 1 early access compared to 1.0, i'm just waiting. there was a ton added and im looking forward to the whole product. i played it up to cronos, smiled, and uninstalled lol
By DY_nasty Go To Postbecause i had zero interest lolwhy hast thou forsaken me?
By blackace Go To Postwhy hast thou forsaken me?wizards and mages are just kinda lame to me
unless you're a tyranny mage - that was fucking awesome. biomancers are very okay too.
