Rolled credits on Outlaws. I can see why fans of the franchise are reluctant to call it a disappointment. An incredible amount of work went into making it look and feel like a proper, lived in SW universe ... and also less of your typical Ubisoft map-filled-with-a-thousand-markers kind of game.
Unfortunately, in terms of the half a dozen or so core gameplay systems, nothing stands out. Everything is basic and continues to feel so throughout the adventure, no matter the number of upgrades you unlock. The shooting, speeder bike, stealth, space combat, side content, as well as the characters, cutscenes and story ... it's like the devs stopped evolving and refining them as soon as said features reached 'eh, good enough' status.
Consequently the game never really quite manages to come together in a satisfying way.
6/10 at best. Not terrible, not good.

Mobile games came far
Played some Devil May Cry and obviously it’s not the console version but way better than I expected for a mobile game

Last three games I played
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. Fun story/mystery and an incredible atmosphere. Half the puzzles are very very cool and the other half is...math lol. Don't recommend to anyone but Bacon maybe. Acquired taste
1000xResist. Thought it was just another indie lesbian story at first but it really turned into a captivating sci-fi epic. Fantastic "game"
Enotria. Oh boy, too many decent ideas (the rock paper scissor ailments system, Masks, Italian play setting) and decent level design but it's janky as fuckkkk. Half the bosses can't even target you properly it seems. Really needed a few extra months in the oven. Funnily enough their whole roadmap till next May is "fix and polish shit" lmao 😵💫. For parry enthusiasts mostly

Finished Miles Morales. Pretty good, liked swinging through New York in the snow. Felt like it should’ve been a DLC given the length but I enjoyed it as more of the same.
Will you have the courage to play the same game for a third time tho, that's the real question. I didn't.

They just gotta break away from gacha a bit more
Takes roughly 5 seconds from launching to playing FF16 in Win11. Thank you DirectStorage and Cerny.
Though it's also thanks to the insta-skippable intro screens, the bane of so many games.

Space Marine 2 is a better Gears of War. Cyberpunk 2077 path tracing is 🔑. Hogwarts Legacy is alright so far, hope it picks up still only two or three hours in.
Baten Kaitos I is pretty good, so far. Although it looks like I will have to actually level up for one of the early bosses. I don't think I like this randomized level up system.

I wasn’t prepared to see PlayStation store prices again. My wish list is stacked but everything is still full price, even older stuff. When do the good games go on sale?
Tales of Graces F is getting a remaster and I will be there day 1 to hate play that awful awful game all over again

When do the good games go on sale?I just got Doom 2016 for $4. With the holidays approaching another round of discounts will surely popup soon.
Watching a playthrough of Subnautica
Man, the pacing goes to shit when you pause the story, overexplore and build everything when it becomes available rather than when you need it

By C4-621 Go To PostWhich game is this lmaothe swamp areas in the Soulsbornes games come to mind lol, worst areas in those games
Miyazaki is a huge troll for including those areas
By Hitch Go To PostWatching a playthrough of SubnauticaPrecisely why every game benefits from a compelling story.

For me any jrpg dungeon with a teleportation or trap floors gimmick
So half of Strange Journey. Still top tier tho

105 hours into AC: Valhalla and I think I'm getting nearer to the end now. The load times on the ps4 are killing me.
Fortune, you need to get in contact with one of Vapes' chav buddies and get yourself a deal on one of them second hand cocaine-laced PS5s. Figuratively and more than likely literally.

Just did a test of how long it takes from selecting the game on the homescreen to controlling the character
By sohois Go To PostHave you considered simply not playing Ass?
