Just finished Jedi Fallen Order, and i had a great time with it!. I remember the game being criticized for the platforming, but i thought it was fine? Never got stuck because of a tricky jump or anything. My only complain is that it could have used some fast travel, the game is already a sekiro-lite, why not go all the way and just let you warp between meditation points?

Just grabbed Frostpunk Complete Collection on PS4/5 for $13.50 on PSN. Also, Diablo Prime Evil Collection is $20 again. I grabbed it last time it was this low. It's Diablo II: Resurrected and all of the DLC and Diablo III: Eternal Collection, if I'm not mistaken.

I don't know why so many Xbox owners are so miserable and vindictive. 80% of the posts in the Xbox thread are just being mad because Sony exists, it's hilarious/sad. Personally, I like playing all the games instead of waging some weird imaginary war on my invisible enemies because they play a console I don't own.

Jelly posted:It is interesting the posters getting called out for low-effort shitposting (by one of the most contributive posters in this thread, mind you) could only shitpost in response. Xbox has kinda been poo poo on for over a decade now since that original Xbox One reveal with mandatory kinect, tried to eliminate game reselling and locking it down to more online only console. They've got a pretty good system now with gamepass but IMHO their exclusives have suffered for over a decade and it's still struggling. Meanwhile we get Horizon, Ghost of Tushima, Bloodborne, God of War and many more. Anyways console debate chat is silly. Talk about the games. That's much more fun and engaging. I can't wait to play Deliver Us Mars tonight.

Sony just let me buy Ridge Racer 2 separately I will give you $20 American dollars for it (which is coincidentally the price that comes up in the information Google culls from the PSN store page where you can't actually buy it). I'm not such a giant stick in the mud about just ponying up for Premium, it's just that I already own or am not interested in most of the current catalog, I really just want Ridge Racer.

doctorthefonz posted:Congrats! Forspoken's writing and voice acting (apart from a few weak instances early on when the characterization has yet to be fleshed out and it's explaining a barrage of mechanics) are perfectly fine in the context of the story and genre. In fact the story is really cool. Taking it all out of context reflects as poorly on it as one would expect for an isekai. It's really the conversant animations that can undermine a given moment, sort of an indictment of the wonky technical performance overall, but on the opposite end the parkour/casting animations are simply spectacular. Everything involving moving around the world is just the best poo poo ever if you like traversal in games, and at heart it's one of the most atypical Square games in a long time, unique, fun, and direct. You can play around forever with its many systems or you can blitz through the great story. It's a good game. A cat game.

Thanks, I appreciate this post 👍I was set on not getting it ever but based on what you said I might re-evalute my stance later.

I'm so confused. I originally bought Ghost of Tsushima digitally for the PS4, and got the paid upgrade once I got a PS5. The PS5 version doesn't indicate anywhere if it's the director's cut - is it, or do I also need to download the PS4 bonus content? To make things even more confusing, it's also possible to download a PS Plus version of the game, which is slightly differently in file size. loving Sony, why is their UI design always so terrible?

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:So for PC players out there is it true that DualSenseX allows buttons to be remapped as keyboard macros? Because that would be pretty baller combined with paddles, profiles, and deadzone adjustment on the Edge. Nah it has the same weak PC support as a Dualsense or DS4, it's game-by-game or via third party stuff like Steam Input. People who bought it just for PC are mad because you need a PS5 to change profiles lol. I'm still waiting on a ds4windows pull request that adds support to get merged

I bought a thing on steam called DSX which is basically ds4windows except it always works instead of working most of the time and then other times it doesn’t work and you have to janitor the computer until it works. It lets you make the haptic triggers work and all kinds of fun poo poo, I wonder if they’ll add edge support.

I don't think I've run into that, though I don't think I rely much on steam for handling input. 99% of the time I'm using a dualsense via ds4windows emulating an xinput device, so games don't often have the chance to see the actual dualsense. The other 1% is when I'm using a wired dualsense with games that have first-class support, and I haven't run into any issues there. History Comes Inside! posted:I bought a thing on steam called DSX which is basically ds4windows except it always works instead of working most of the time and then other times it doesn’t work and you have to janitor the computer until it works. DSX got edge support like the day it released. I'd give it a look if I wasn't already pretty happy with ds4windows. The support for Switch controllers is something I use a lot. And I occasionally do couch multiplayer with multiple controllers, don't think DSX can do that yet. BP this is making me realize I misread your post, I thought you were asking about the controller rather than DSX. Yeah I believe DSX can let your controller do keyboard and mouse stuff, but I don't know the details of how configurable it is.

It’s so weird that Sony’s controllers are so poorly supported by windows when they have such great native support for Apple products. They’re even sold at Apple stores. They work really well natively with OSX, iOS, and Apple TV. There’s gently caress all worth playing with them, but they do work out of the box.

That seems like kind of a logical thing for the button to do? It’s the closest equivalent of the dashboard on ps5, which is what the button would bring on the native system.

Windows support for controllers is just shockingly bad and hacked together in general, the amount of times a game will launch and just not acknowledge my controller until I restart the game is shocking. Then my MacBook will just happily accept any controller I throw at it including the Switch joycons without question. It's really one of the great mysteries why someone at Apple is determined to maintain really good gamepad support in MacOS despite everything about Mac gaming in general.

Some barefoot old man who lives behind a waterfall at HQ has meditated on the precise haiku brush stroke form of feature elimination vs feature creep and decided that maximum spiritual agitation can be achieved via electronics by edging the gently caress out of consumers one previously available feature at a time. It's such a baffling tendency. btw this hypothetical gaming sage also coined we believe in generations.
