It's late enough in the PS4 lifecycle (right) that I should expect to have full months of stuff I already have, I guess

Didn't care for xcom 2. The round limits on nearly every level really got to me. And the secret RNG that makes you miss 95% shots. Ugh. I liked the first reboot (with dlc) a lot more.

nachos posted:How does it compare to god of war in terms of story and presentation? Despite sharing some visual and mythological language it's a very different game from God of War, with a much more focused message and playtime. You play as Senua, a Celtic warrior who travels into viking hell to rescue the soul of her lover. The main conceit is that Senua also suffers from severe psychosis, which manifests in the form of hearing voices, visual hallucinations, and finding hidden meaning in mundane objects. It's less exploring the weight of responsibility with a full cast of colorful characters that you see in GoW than an exploration of one woman's memories of trauma and grief exacerbated by her mental illness in an equal parts bleak and beautiful setting. The combat, puzzles and environments are nowhere near as complex as they are in GoW so if you come in expecting that, you'd be disappointed. People love Hellblade for the same reasons that you would love a Shadow of the Colossus or Silent Hill 2 -- every element of the gameplay works in unison toward its overarching story. There's no crafting, no skill trees, no items, no UI altogether. I wouldn't even say the game is very fun to play. But it is a pretty unique, oppressive and memorable experience for 6-8 hours.

If you wear headphones you can hear the schizophrenic whispers all around you and it makes you feel like you're going through insanity, which is awesome. I would put Hellblade as more as an experience like Silent Hill 2 and God of War as more like Zelda.

I would put Hellblade as more as an experience like Silent Hill 2 and God of War as more like Zelda. Its mechanical too. If an enemy is behind to your left, you voice will whisoershout to dodge from that direction. It gives a really awesome effect of being in the fight. Surround headphones or I guess a speaker system of you got it.

Is Xcom 2 still brutally difficult and entirely possible to set yourself up to fail unless you balance things just right for a while with your base

Hellblade is basically a combined character action game / horror game (a la Soma). The first third is very slow and repetetive but after that I was completely hooked until the end.

The most fun I've had with Photo mode was Mario Odyssey. It was cool to just do a quick click and go.

Here's my experience with Photo Mode: *poses character or removes them entirely* *changes lighting* *adjusts field of view and focus* *takes picture* "Neat." *closes Photo Mode and never re-opens it*

JBP posted:We should play Gundam Versus one day in a battle to the death over GOW and Nier, god drat beanpole. If you say so; I don't view this as a competition. They were just two games I played within 3 months of each other. In actuality, NieR didn't cause reviewers critical faculties to shut off entirely, and it's shortcomings were noted in reviews. That it was greater than the sum of its parts has been attested to by the course of time. If battle robots you must... then I suppose I can facilitate. Pablo Nergigante posted:FFXV's ending was extremely good imo. When that title came up I got a bit emotional for reasons I can quite figure. It was a good loving journey, warts and all. Also I'd say that's probably the only good cover of Stand By Me that isn't Ben E. King's original. Where's the car combat?

Does anyone have experience using the PS4 Link feature on a PSTV? I have my PSTV hooked up to a monitor and speakers but it only outputs audio in the PSTV menus/apps. I get no sound when using PS4 Link and can only hear it when I turn on the TV that my PS4 is hooked up to in the other room. What am I doing wrong? I can't imagine this was designed to only output audio on the original source as that seems to defeat the purpose.
