Personally I am looking forward for Divinity: Original Sin 2. I had games like Baldurs Gate and Fallout 1 and 2 on my formative years. Other people have different games sine in their eyes, and thats great, but for me the reference is games where you can steal from the vendor or abuse some complex magic mechanic to be op as hell. Games with good story and a lot of player freedom.

There's a good point there though, I mean once you've got The Last of Us 2 being made and you already dropped stuff of the caliber of Bloodborne and Uncharted 4 and HORIZON AND GOD OF WAR and you've sold like 70 million PS4s or whatever, do you really need to still drop the $$$ on a regular stream of exclusives for the PS4? I said come in! posted:I am currently playing through Divinity Original Sin, but the sequel is next up on my list. Is the PS4 port of this good? My wife and I wanted to play through it too before getting the sequel. Does the sequel have coop also? Speaking of, there's a PS4 port of Wasteland 2 I heard mixed things about, I loved the game but was there actually anything wrong with the PS4 version or was it just badly received in general or something?

I mean, considering half the titles he listed are PS4 exclusive, clearly Sony thinks they do.

Wasteland 2 is just a bad, bad shadowrun game and I was sorely disappointed by my PC purchase. It just fails to be Fallout over and over and never finds its own footing, at least not over the 8 hours I played

Just because you're on top doesn't mean you just stop trying and assume people will come. That's what they did with PS3 and everyone knows how that turned out. Every PlayStation seems to have one or two big "swan song" exclusives after the successor comes out, and we're like at least 2 years out from PS5 so we've got plenty of time for more games.

I still check the XBox part of the mall every so in a while. I will have not problem buying a XBox, if it had games the PS4 don't have and I want to own. In part so I can talk with my money, if I feel Sony wronged me this month, I would put my money on microsoft pockets. But when I look at the Xbox wall in the mall, I see the exact same games that exist in the PS4 wall. I don't see a point to buying a Xbox because of that. Exclusives are really key to consoles strategies, and perhaps the extra support from the console owner allow the existence of supergreat games that withouth that support would (perhaps) be less great. Exclusives don't make any sense out of consoles, but on consoles they are great. Not so great if you are on the "losing console" in the current generation,.. been there, that sucks.

I don't think it's really weird to say that a pretty straight line can be drawn from Shenmue to Yakuza; it's an obvious influence. Both games offer a relatively small but highly detailed environment with many distracting side elements. Yakuza amps pretty much everything up, from the storyline to the frequency of combat; it's closer to an action game where Shenmue is more of an adventure, but I don't think the shared DNA can be denied.

It’s also comparing a series that has been doing iterative updates on the same small area since 2005 with something that came out in 1999.

Articles I ended up reading them as Death Stranding on PC! And forgive me for forgetting ghosts is ps4 exclusive, it's the most under the radar of these 3 upcoming Japan setting 3rd person melee action games As to shenmue, I was starting college when it came out and watched my friends play for hours. I never console gamed prior to college and the Dreamcast/ps2 launches so I didn't really have the blown away feeling as I didn't have much to compare stuff to. mastershakeman fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Aug 23, 2018 |

So if a game release in PC and PS4, is still a PS4 exclusive. If a game release in PC and XBox, is still a Xbox exclusive.

I doubt I'm going to actually play through it a second time but I played God of War on new game+ up to the Stranger showing up at your house and I thought it was neat that he actually throws punches now when you slam him into the roof of the house. Also having Skap Slag as a material now is a nice touch. Anyway, very surprised Guacamelee 2 is only 20$ Gonna get that one soon-ish I bet. Hope it sells well. I know not every indie game can be Undertale or Terraria but I still hope for the best.

I discovered that it’s actually possible to own the Stranger so hard on NG+ that you’ll skip past the part where Kratos beats his face in on the roof right into the second phase of that fight.

I know not every indie game can be Undertale or Terraria but I still hope for the best. The timeline stuff in Guac 2 are great so far. Accidentally ending up in the “Baddest Timeline” while hurrying to the “Darkest Timeline” was amazing. The combat expands with each upgrade and the platforming is a great test of skill, especially the optional areas. It’s really polished and easily worth the money - IIRC it was 10% off with PS+ on top of being only $20 full-price. A very sincere and unique Metroidvania if there ever was one. https://i.imgur.com/bJtr8LO_d.jpg SLOSifl fucked around with this message at 17:08 on Aug 23, 2018 |

Yeah but Last of Us 2 will be that swan song.  If the PS5 is two years out it would make sense to see less exclusives overall (unless they want to repeat the same mistakes you just mentioned with the PS3 launch) listed for the PS4 since they'd have their top folks learning and conceiving PS5 stuff right now.But as someone else posted it's kind of a moot point since there's still a pretty stream of PS4 exclusives happening anyway.

Do you ever get something in Kiwami akin to 0's Cash Confetti to let you avoid random fights? I know you won't get that specific ability because it was tied to the financial boom in the 80s but man, jeez, the random fights are so constant and getting really boring now

I had a spider man pS4 Pro pre ordered but canceled it. Realized Black Friday will have bette deals on the pro, and I’ll be too busy to play red dead till then anyway (pre ordered as well). So I’ll just grab one when they are cheaper then. I will be ordering one of those sick sunset orange controllers next month though. They look great

Cool You get one more rune (I found about it on a stream) when you beat the hand of the king, a rune that lets you separate your head from your body and explore small spaces like being a ball in Metroid, after some distance your head will come back to the body.. I can now reliably get to the boss I mentioned, thing is getting with enough healing to finish it (I'll eventually get to it).

An elite swordsman gives me malaise and I just die insantly My combo for getting there is to get 2x Crossb-o-matic or 1xCrossb-o-matic+1xsinew slicer (the highest damage possible), try to reroll for fire trails and poison cloud, then as main weapons the whip and a good ranged weapon that freezes or does freeze aoe on kill. Support mutation is a must so you can spam turrets, the idea is to drop the turrets and drop/climb somewhere safe and let the skills do the job and not get hit at all. If you stack aoe damage on kill, the more enemies the more damage you deal. Sure, you can get up close but you'll eat more hits.
