Does anyone else have blu-rays that their PS4 can't read but the PS3 can? I have just a few of them and I've never known why.

Is it an “unrecognized disc” issue or something else?

Enjoying the game quite a bit so far but I'm kinda blown away by how nobody noticed the horrible low quality texture on the door to your apartment that you see up close semi often.



Yeah that's why I'm trying to hold off for a month so it'll be patched and a bit more foil wrapped by the time I pick it up.

Yeah it seems like it fails to load in the high res textures on some objects and environments. Will probably get patched.

Just trying to keep my boyfriend away from that redheaded harlot.
I've been having a hard time during quarantine to really connect with a game. Nioh, Doom Eternal, Animal Crossing, CoD, etc...nothing has kept my attention more than staring off, contemplating the horrible political climate I brought my daughter into.

I'm glad to say FF7 is moving my boner a little. I can tell this is an amazing game. I don't super love the combat, but nostalgia is taking me back to when I was 16 years old and skipping classes to talk to my friends about what they had done on FF7 the night before. Still hasn't broken through the low-level depression, but it's something!

This shouldn't happen in a SATA3 drive, even less on a SSD. SATA2 5400rpm drives suck and will always be my biggest complain about this generation (and previous one too). Of course the engine has to do its part by not being lovely when streaming textures.

This is good advice. I can't see my wife until poo poo is safer in Spain, same with the rest of my family and I just try to do whatever keeps my mind busy and playing with goons helps quite a lot, chatting and blaming Massive for all the glitches and bad rolls on The Division 2.

They might just be using the system-level HDR settings that Sony added in one of the newer PS4 updates, so tweaking that could help.

FF7R is incredible. You know how you think back on some old game and rose tinted glasses cloud your memory? Then you decide man that game owned I'm going to track it and play it again! Then you finally play it again, decades later, and realize wow the game was rough as poo poo and nowhere near what I remember.

FF7R is like someone went and fixed the game to be like what you remembered. The combat, the atmophere, the dialogue. All of it works so well.

Oh man. I got an LG oled TV... hopefully it isn’t too dark for my own taste when the game arrives.

There is brightness adjustment. Not intuitive but under camera in options.

It’s way better than XV. It’s weirdly reminding me of a Yakuza game: Simple but satisfying combat, bars that fill up for more powerful actions, realistic style characters doing incredibly goofy things, all it needs is a slot car minigame.

I did not like FFXVs combat and I'm really enjoying FF7s, although I hope it gets more challenging. I'm really early on though.

Ten hours into FF15 I thought the combat was pretty bland and braindead.

Four hours into FF7R I am finding the combat fun and I'm actively doing something every second
