I don't think there's a ton they can do to make PS1/PS2 interesting to me since there are good quality PC emulators available for those games and it's trivial to download anything you want. Not a big ...

@efesell: Maybe I played too many games in the early days of computer RPGs, but this seems fine to me. If I could get past my hatred of Souls combat, I'd be very into the idea of a modern RPG that doe...

@bigsocrates: I don't think that's an unusual perspective at all when it comes to Souls games.It took me three tries to accept I just don't like playing them, and at this point I'm immune to the hype....

@banefirelord said: Are there any secret system-killer graphics settings I should be aware of?Might be worth having a look at Digital Foundry's optimized settings video.

I've started the game and quit after a few hours like five times already, so sure. Might as well give it another try.

Omicron restrictions in my county lasted just long enough to get me out of jury duty, so I'll take it.

Unlocking the alien artifact things is incredibly repetitive. Other than that, it's fine.Granted, I played through it after it was fully patched.

Definitely not just you. I have the same problem.

I bought one from Gamestop, but that was four or five years ago. I doubt they carry them anymore.Obviously used game stores in you have any near you. Otherwise Craig's List, flea markets, pawn shops, ...

Been building PCs since the late 90s, and I genuinely love the whole process. Love picking parts, love putting them together, love designing my fan layout for optimal airflow, love dialing things in g...

The sunk cost fallacy victims will eventually have to admit to themselves that the game has released. And it's bad.

You're hand-waving a whole lot of nuance here, OP. If you were to compare the GPU power of the PS5 and XSX to a current video card, you'd probably end up around an RTX 3050. That's a card that can cer...

A bad story is what makes games boring, so probably Far Cry 5.Not entirely sure why I finished that game, but I immediately regretted bothering.

As an "independent subsidiary" (whatever that means) putting out multiplatform games.Hmm.

Hey, can I tell you about that time the Game Pass app wouldn't let me reinstall a game until I went into the Windows registry and manually deleted every reference to that game? Yeah. It's a shining ex...

Yes to Infinite. I do get the argument many have made that the encounters can get a bit repetitive, but it just feels so damn good to play that I didn't care.

I still buy and rip discs cuz I'm a weirdo, but I had to gut my PC recently and stick it in a modern case just to get some better airflow going. Turns out none of the actual good cases even have a 5.2...
