Got Jedi Fallen Order on sale

It’s a pretty good Dark Souls Lite experience, but now the difficulty suddenly ramped up and I’m stuck on the fight with Trilla in her fortress. I’ve fought and lost against her more times than Lady Maria in Bloodborne. Anyone got any tips?

I’m on medium difficulty on Jedi Fallen Order. Going down one step would mean baby mode :negative:

Hell yeah, I beat Trilla without stepping down to story mode difficulty! Only took 25 tries!

I had a sliver of health left, could feel adrenaline being squirted out of my kidneys

A bunch of mgsv videos were popping up on my youtube homepage and it’s really helped show that that game was a masterpiece.

Spoilers for mgsv if you haven’t played it all obv, but it helped illuminate some stuff I missed since I was mainly distracted by airlifting sheep.

A huge shame that mgs4 is still yet to be ported forward. I’d love to go through them all again. Peace Walker is sometimes tough to go though.

That was great. Thank you for this

Ghost of Tsushima indeed has excellent combat and beautiful graphics. But it’s painfully obvious that it was written by Americans. It’s a fortune cookie version of Japan.

So far it’s like the first game; I’m actually way interested in the sci-fi stuff and start nodding off when it comes to tribal conflicts

I got to the first cauldron and started listening to everything because the sci-fi story really opens up there

Ah, when you mentioned external drive I thought that's where your games were but I reread and realize it was asking for a firmware install file which you don't normally use.

The first one definitely won't work, it's a 3.5" drive which is larger and intended for desktops or powered enclosures. The second one is a 2.5" drive which is what you need for your main drive. It can be either a traditional mechanical drive or an SSD. I think there's a 9.5mm height restriction which cuts off most drives larger than 2tb, so that's loosely seen as the largest drive you can stick into a PS4 of any model (they all use pretty much identical compartments for their hard drives).

It’s a 7mm height limit, which means 2TB spinners or a $400 SSD if you want 4TB

Now that Sony seems to have decided on sticking with x86 for the foreseeable future, is it likely that even if they shut down the ps4 game store, the games will still be playable/available on future consoles?

I’ve been buying used physical copies of my favorite games just in case and wondering if I should keep doing so or not bother

Not a whole lotta games coming out lately so I’m working through the massive backlog

Finally finished Uncharted 4. Decent game, but still has uncanny valley of superhuman jumping and climbing. I was hoping they would’ve toned it down to make it feel more realistic

Still blown away by all the incidental animation like how he touches people’s shoulders when walking through a crowd, touches a wall that he’s walking next to, etc

Also enjoyed that they worked in an homage to Cash Bandicoot during one of the chases

I’m still waiting for a 4TB 7mm SSD to drop down to $200 so I can justify using it internally on my slim

Edit: ooh, looks like they’re coming close, $270-300

Driveclub is still worth playing. The handling feels as good as Gran Turismo, but the cars have unnaturally high grip so you can push them a lot harder. Super cars are extremely fun to drive since you don't need to be perfect to avoid flying off the track.

All the environments and weather effects still look stunning and it's a crime we never got a 4K HDR 60fps update or an open world sequel.

Ok maybe I’ll try it out then

I was mainly intrigued by how good the weather looked in this:

They do, the problem is that a 4Tb spinny drive won't fit into the PS4 internal slot. My solution years ago was a 1Tb SSD and then a 4Tb external USB 3.0 drive.

Oh yeah I meant to say no 4TB 17mm hdds

Ineffiable posted:

It's worth mentioning that functionally you can play any ps4 game (there's only a handful that don't or are worse) on a ps5 and if you use an external hard drive they can be swapped between consoles easily.

But the ssd that can go in a ps4 and ps5 are different form factors so it's not very future proof.

Unless you're thinking you'll only have a ps4 going forward with no upgrade to a ps5, think about a smaller ssd, keep your more frequent games on it (anything with lots of loading and play often) and keep indies on an external hdd.

Yeahhhhh hmmmm

I might end up getting a 4TB ssd for the ps4, get a ps5 and wait a while for prices to come down before getting a big dumpster ssd for that one

I found that dudes are still selling 4TB ssd’s for the ps4 for cheap on eBay
