Yeah i saw the box for it and its 100% a download code :negative:

That said, not sure if you know about it but the unpatched day0 game has totally different monster placements in lots of areas, its wild for the lore so im kinda glad that gets preserved in some way

I did start a character in unpatched day 0 game just to get some items they fixed for an even quicker and stronger start. I like having my physical disc (along with digital) so I can stomp the game with the un-nerfed icerind hatchet or accesing zones they patched afterwards.

Every single player game should have it, there's no excuse for stopping me from getting up to pee. I don't even like it in games like Elden Ring, where it kinda adds to the tension but cmon man it's a video game you gotta step away for a minute sometimes this is not supposed to be a huge commitment

and if the single-player doesn't pause because you had dreams of live service millions and you couldn't be bothered to make the offline experience different then I think you belong in jail with Yuji Naka

I legit stopped playing Elden Ring because it doesn't have a pause button. I'm not great at games so it was killing me challenge wise, but the fact that I couldn't pause when my dog decided it was time to hop up on me and bat the controller out of my hands just made it too much of a hassle.

Yes, I need to git gud

my launch unit is quiet as gently caress and i havent "cleaned it out" once so, yeah i would say...

tho make sure you're not confusing it with the intial disc spin, it will spin the disc loud if you turn it on with one still on.

yeah there was something like that but i think that got fixed in general, it was a bit of a tape/sticker that the fan was hitting lol. also some units had different types of fans too.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard the fan in my PS5 and it’s not like it’s in a particularly well ventilated space, squished into my tv stand alongside a bunch of other crap.

It’s a marked difference from my jet engine PS4 just howling away relentlessly pretty much the second the little wake up beep sounded.

My PS5 was loud as hell for a while and would turn off randomly. I thought it was busted until I opened it up and had a massive amount of cat fur in there from my fluffy ragdoll, and it hasn't turned itself off since.

It's literally only loud when I switch the thing on. Really loud for about 10 seconds then it dies down and is quiet for the whole rest of the session iirc

Are you sure it isn't the disc drive, if you have one? It's normal for it to audibly spin up and then shut back off if there's a disc in there on boot

Fun fact Elden ring technically has this if you open up the map and then press start (I think) it saved my rear end multiple times it just doesn't work during boss fights at all obviously and is otherwise functionally the same as just quitting out after running away

You can't pause Souls games because they are online games. I guess it would be cool if they added pause for people playing offline but I'm pretty sure like 99% of people are playing online anyways.

Elden ring is a single player with online components, there is literally no reason you shouldn’t be able to pause. It’s actually very easy to just connect to the internet when you need to. Tons of games do it

who, me?


Given that From has been de-emphasizing invasions outside of opt-in scenarios for several games now, I don't think that's the reason there's no pause function. Seems more likely that it's a mix of design inertia and wanting players to take caution.

name another game with persistent online elements that are remotely comparable to dark souls that does this. At any given time there are messages, player ghosts running around and the potential for interaction with other players with varying levels of predictability. I don't see any way to let people pause without breaking those features.

Don't you need to use an item to allow for invasions and such in Elden Ring? It's been a while.
