To be fair, I’ve never seen anything come close to Amanos illustratative work.

It is an option, and uses the same drive that is available for the PS5 Slim - the one you have.

Is it much of a surprise when it comes to MiHoYo? Their entire model is based around this kind of thing.

I have a friend that refuses to play FFXIV again because how addicted they felt towards it. That came off the back of a WoW addiction that led them to mix up their priorities between food, alcohol and playing the game. The whole addition to both of those was a way for dealing with other mental health issue, yet only made matters worse with how those games work.

I also had my own issues with game addiction when I was dealing with grief over a death. Fortunately it didn’t impact my physical health but it did impact other areas. I certainly wasn’t looking after myself and my surroundings as best as I could back then, and neglected a lot in my life.

My friend found a way of dealing with game addiction by removing them entirely, I found ways to prioritise other areas of my life and continue with that while keeping gaming strictly as a hobby.

Often I think people become addicted to games like any other substance due to dealing with external factors in life that they’re not getting help for. It takes a lot to realise there’s a problem, it takes even more to deal with the root causes. Some people also have low thresholds for addiction and which exacerbates it.

Me and my kid played it for a little while earlier and it’s so good in it’s simplicity. I can’t wait to go back and play more. But it also me instantly wonder why Sony haven’t got Asobi to do a new Ape Escape.

There’s no doubt about this. My favourites in the franchise usually differ from other people and fans that I know. It really does make it a pleasure being a fan of Final Fantasy as it holds such a diverse fandom that conversations often hold interesting takes, views and more.

I still have my 1.0 disc, given how useful it is now, it horrifies my friends when they find out I’m using it as a coaster. I stopped playing before I could get the rewards too, so seeing people with the tattoos always makes me sigh.

I’d recognise Limsa Lominsa anywhere. I’ve been playing since 1.0, with some breaks here and there. FFXIV is one of my favourite games ever, for story and gameplay.

I hope you enjoy it and have a great experience. Feel free to join us at [email protected] as well.

at the very least remakes should include a copy of the original game playable on the same device, either as a port or via emulation.

I’d love to see developers and publishers start to do this. Though I am interested in Tomb Raider and how they handle the graphic toggling, which seems like a half-way point to what you’re describing.

I remember this well from my childhood, so it was nice to see that trailer. I love how they seem to have barely changed anything except higher res textures and models. I’ll be looking at getting this when its out.

Hope you don’t mind but I’ve linked this thread from [email protected]. Thanks for putting it together.

I don’t either but this is such a great discussion. I’ve come across quite a few interesting sounding games here. Thanks OP.

There is a [email protected] community but unfortunately there just isn’t the interest to build an active community here (on Lemmy) for specific games at the moment. [email protected] seems to be a good place for it at the moment but feel free to cross-post.

There’s going to be negative comments, and that can’t be changed. But I do agree that they’re often through rose tinted glasses.

I’d disagree. I think the changes they’ve made with Eddie look great. He looks sickly and tired, unhinged and empty as a result of the bullying, lifestyles he’s led and the personal hell he’s experiencing.

We had a similar case in the UK, and the teacher lost their case after taking it to an employment tribunal. Hopefully this one goes the same direction.

I don’t believe you’re wrong here in saying that. These don’t seem like unreasonable asks at all, and something I’d expect to be normal standards for the industry.

It’s was the lack of backwards compatibility that killed it for me. I’d had niggling considerations of PSVR1 for some time, then PSVR2 was announced and I was all ready to hand over my money. Until it became clear there was no backward compatibility. So I own neither.

Exciting times, best of luck with the update!

Sooo… they’re not a shitty company, they just make games that you don’t like.
