The Salazar fight is bad but the knife fight rules in the remake.

Anyway, this is my favorite glitch so far:

I ended up grabbing Nexomon on sale a bit ago; enjoyed it enough to platinum it, I thought it was a charming story but not too challenging. Having just finished the story for Extinction, I gotta say, they improved on everything, really; at first I was wary because I noticed level scaling but they handled it pretty well. You can go just about anywhere from the start of the game outside of three or four areas; I ended up catching about 80 species before going to the first city. Overall a much more solid Pokemon clone than say, Temtem, especially in terms of plot. Still have to run through postgame content and fill out the other half of the dex, though.

When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change.

I must be the biggest idiot in the world because no one else seems to have this particular version of this problem but I absolutely cannot get Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade DLC working. Here is the situation:

I owned the PS4 version of IFinal Fantasy VII Remake. I got the PS5 version of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade through PlayStation Plus.

When I go to the game in my library it says "Final Fantasy VII Remake" and has the PS5 logo next to it. It says it is the version I have access to as part of my PS Plus subscription. The Intergrade Episode INTERmission DLC is installed.

When I launch the game, I cannot switch to the DLC start screen. Instead there is a thing in the corner to purchase the DLC. When I click on that it says "INSTALLED" and next to it "$19.99."

I have tried: uninstalling and reinstalling the DLC, uninstalling and reinstalling the game, turning the console off and on.

I'm so confused. What do I have to do to get this DLC working?

Edit: figured it out. You need to restore licenses. If you are having this problem follow a guide online for "PS5 restore licenses." JFC this was the stupid and annoying to fix.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:

FF7R is a clusterfuck of different versions, but the short answer is that the DLC is not free. The ps+ version (PS4) did NOT include the DLC and originally wasn't even upgradeable, tho yeah you'll need some kind of PS5 version to play Intermission.

What you want to do is use your disc copy PS4 version to claim the free (non-ps+) PS5 upgrade of the base game. Then you can transfer saves using the PS4 version migration tool. At that point you can uninstall the PS4 version and just use the PS5 version that you've downloaded, but you'll still need the disc to authenticate.

You will still need to purchase INTERmission. Sure, it installs as part of the PS5 free upgrade package but similar to the Bloodborne Old Hunters patch it's just there but unplayable unless you pay.

The only way that INTERmission is included without paying that DLC transaction is if you bought Intergrade PS5 on disc, or specifically bought the PS5 digital version with INTERmission included, which costs more than the base game.



And no, they did not handle any of this well! You are NOT an idiot! :blastu:

This is not completely true and, while similar to the problem I was having, not the problem I was having which is why solving it was so difficult. I kept finding people explaining this which wasn't the issue.

The INTERmission DLC is included in some PS Plus tiers (Extra and above) which I had. Refreshing licenses was the solution and I am now playing it.

RE4make owns. Kneecapping evil villagers before round-housing them into a crowd of more evil villagers never got old, the requisite 'no combat stealth section' was actually fun, the villains were suitably ridiculous and Leon was charmingly pissed off. My only complaints are that there's three times where you briefly fight bugs and they are very tedious, the semi-open lake you can explore is really cool but nothing like that ever happens again, and while your companions commenta on the shooting range no one ever acknowledges the absurdity of the sinister and possibly magical merchant.

I've been working my way through Days Gone based on earlier discussions in the thread. It's been entertaining enough so far but it's been a massive tonal shift ever since I crossed the mountain pass. Deacon spends two years mourning his dead wife and suddenly she's alive but they're both in a militia so [???]. Deacon doesn't seem to voice any kind of disdain for the militia despite talking poo poo about each of the three encampments north of the mountain. I'm running fetch quests for Sarah without any real exposition, there has been multiple scenes where they're alone but instead of talking about what they're doing or why it's just Sarah saying "go collect this printer and carry it for me in the rain, dismissed soldier". The Colonel is clearly some god-bothering, almost Colonel Kurtz-level rear end in a top hat but Deacon hasn't said a bad word about him, even to himself.

I'll keep at it but drat is it weird.

It's always very amusing to me when people are like "I am watching someone else play this game and I am bored." Yes, watching someone else play a video game is always boring. That's why Randy Stein was a lovely controller hog back in middle school and why watching streamers play a video game instead of doing it yourself will always be unsatisfying!

Yeah it’s old man yells at cloud as gently caress to have this opinion but that doesn’t make it any less true.

Unless it’s someone doing some kind of absolutely sicknasty 0.0001% skill ceiling game breaking poo poo there is absolutely nothing compelling about watching someone bumble around in a game you could just bumble around yourself.

Depends, if its something with lots of dialouge choice and brancing path poo poo, watching some entertaining stream take options you wouldnt pick is kinda fun. I did just watch max play re2 classic with some insane series randomizer on (randomizes re2 classic with things from... all games even the remakes, cutscenes and voice lines too ) and watching that was tons of fun.

Depends on the game and youre own time

Having detailed opinions on something you haven't physically played is kinda silly but I've personally watched someone play through a game when the developers decided not to include accessibility options. It's a sub par experience but this isn't as simple as you're making it out to be either.

But for real, gently caress Randy though. My girlfriend has an older brother who's a Randy and because of that she never got interested in games until we started dating. Randies ruin lives people.

Agreed. If it’s someone who knows the game inside and out and is going to play it at a level I can’t even imagine myself playing, that’s one thing.

But watching someone else bumble around like a lost idiot because that doesn’t know what they’re doing, that’s not entertaining to me. That’s just my experience playing the game with extra steps.
