Amaryllis posted:Has the Dragon Age: Inquisition DLC ever been on sale? I was almost ready to just pay for a digital copy of the game despite owning the physical one if it meant getting a super-deep discount on the extra story content, but then I saw that the version on sale this week for fifteen bucks is just the one with garbage add-ons. the one with all the DLC was on sale for $25 like two weeks ago

Kenny Logins posted:So, is the Black Flag with DLC worth it for the $0.01 extra? I would have said yes but I've just learned that not only are there no new sea shanties included with the DLC, the crew on your ship in that campaign don't sing at all! Going to wait for a $10 bare-bones edition, personally.

Not really; First Light is a prequel, so might spoil a character or two, but nothing big. If you haven't played an infamous game yet, play First Light first and see if you like it, Second Son is pretty similar (though still fun and different enough).

BlindNinja posted:I know it's a measly $10, but "is it worth it" to get Second Son if I already have First Light free through PS+. If you liked first light at all, yes. It's a good game and they can be played in either order, neither spoils the other entirely. Infamous games are decent games and severely underated, and those two games still look pretty amazing for having been released so early in ps4 life. if you know nothing of infamous, its a series of super power games, openworld, good traversing powers, a morality system (not first light) that gives light replay value usually hero side being reasonable villain side being campy bad (so funny, but the powers at least all have distinctive differences on both ends of the spectrum), these are technically both sequels to the ps3 duo, but there isn't much connecting the games overall.

I really hope the games get a sequel this generation, I'd love to see how they'd improve those special effects even more. They were already top notch.

Xenogears, finally! Can pick it up despite currently sitting 6 feet from the disk on a shelf. Also getting FFT as well, despite already buying War of the Lions since I found that version completely unplayable due to slowdown. Mostly wanted to keep building my PS1 library for my Vita.

Amaryllis posted:I saw that and thought, "Nah, $25 is still too much for a game I already own plus the DLC," but it seems like I should've just bitten then (especially considering that Trespasser alone is normally $15). Oh well! i was in the same position. I just did a platinum run DA:O and will go through 2 here in a bit. I have the DA:I disc, took one look at the dlc prices and had to buy it while it was on sale. I think the story DLC adds up to $45

BlindNinja posted:Thanks! Crossing media, I don't think I've come across a movie, book, or game where the prequel should be seen first. They're all written to appeal to fans of the original and include forward references that assume you've seen everything thus far. They also have little respect for spoilers and often don't properly introduce characters that are big in the main series. Totally taking quality out of it, Obi Wan in A New Hope is awful in his vague double speak if you've already had six hours of explicit origin feed to you and three climactic reveal of Empire is bleh when you're already familiar.

I asked mostly to make sure playing the newest one wouldn't make me lose all interest in playing the one before it, like some people who play Uncharted 2 before Uncharted 1. edit: And I've played First Light, but not very much, so I guess I can just do Second Son first.

Stare-Out posted:Uh so my PS+ stopped being PS+ apparently and hasn't been doing what it's supposed to for two weeks since I renewed it. All the auto-upload/download/trophy sync stuff is switched on (and all games are set to upload saves) but none of that stuff happens. The PS3 still turns on when it's supposed to do its thing but it just doesn't do it. I get no notifications for that stuff when I turn it on, either, which is what got me suspicious. I've had the same problem for weeks and I am not sure how to fix it. Looks like it has been affecting other people, too.

I just tried out Tharsis, which is basically a game of single-player-space-cannibalism-yahtzee. You play a team of four astronauts, on their way to Mars. With ten weeks left to go, everything starts to go wrong. You need to run around rolling dice to put out fires, while managing your hull integrity, crew health, crew stress, and food. For some reason, there is a story which plays out through cutscenes which play between weeks, and so far, the story seems kinda creepy. Each crew member has their own special power, and there are a few more characters for you to unlock. Overall, the game is okay, but I wouldn't recommend it at its current price. It's very easy to get into unwinnable situations, and it doesn't seem like anything will ever happen to mix up the gameplay.

In this specific case though, nope, and the narratives entirely from the characters perspective so there's pretty much nothing here that will be like WHOA DUDE. Especially because they both are different characters at different points in time. it's like First light- Well Today I'm gonna paint my nails because burgundy is so my new color Second Son- Hey Nice Nails! Is that Burgundy? burgundy is pretty awesome. Whoa dude agreed, this is like so my new color.

Picked up DA:I, Child of Light, and Metro Redux from the sale. Never played the Metro games, but I heard that Redux lets you set Metro 2 to play like 1, or 1 to play like 2? Any suggestions on what the best way to go there is?

Any suggestions on what the best way to go there is? Nah they just remade the first game on the seconds engine. The difficulties are standard game fair until the last 2, which make it so that both you and enemies die hella fast. Resources are sorta scarce to begin with so depending on your playstyle (you can stealth through lots of levels) the harder modes are actually easier since things take less ammo to kill.

First Light does take place chronologically before it, but it will also give away story information rather than fill in holes in an "oh, so that's why..." kind of way. Same deal with The Last of Us and Left Behind. You should play Left Behind after TLOU.

What's VD? Other than a venereal disease, I mean. Also, is there a list of (or way to filter) which items are unique to the JP PSN store? Outside of flipping back and forth, it'd be great to see if there are any themes or anything that would make buying a Yen card worth the time and effort.
