Re: PS5 Fans Are Pondering the Point of Days Gone Remastered After Graphics Comparison Emerges

Trapdoor

I absolutely loved this game upon initial release the value and atmosphere alone made it a real under appreciated gem. But just can't muster the enthusiasm to play it what a 3rd time.

However if you've a PS5 and never played it you should give it a go. Really felt it got unfairly treated (bit like Alien Isolation in that respect).

Also didn't they do a new horde mode via a free patch?

@Rich33 Surely the hate for the most part is because of a narrative/agenda pushed so sloppily upon the player? IMHO it felt like a Disney writer had been let lose on the project In other words a once beloved franchise neutered till very little of the fun of the originals remains. I doubt it's even a dislike of LGBT issues for most just it wasn't subtle. They should learn from Baldurs Gate 3 or the Life Is Strange series; have diversity but let it be part of the story.

@Ainu20 I liked it too and felt it was let down by Infinite Wealth as a follow up. IW has to have one of the most drawn out monotonous end level segments in the series history. It just drags and the repetitive battles needed serious editing. It got so bad I wanted an easy option just to rush through them.

I tried Infinity Nikki for a few hours but just can't get into the whole gacha thing so uninstalled it. I get these games are FTP but can't help but feel Infinity Nikki would have been off as a stand alone paid retail game without any gacha involved.

Also it doesn't help there are just too many decent games out there to play now without my attention wandering to these FTP titles.

DEI if put into a game merely to tick a box/boxes should always be called out. If it's there to help the story fair enough but let's not do a Disney and just bung it in for the sake of it.

This is why I far prefer Japanese games to recent western releases as the chances of that crap happening is nil. Games can be art (and many are) and art should stand on it's own merit without some iffy consultant overlooking production with a tick sheet...

Re: Star Wars Outlaws Director a 'Little Disappointed' with Critical Reception

Trapdoor

Obviously not totally relevant to this article but can Push do or investigate what is exactly happening with UK retailer GAME?
Since changing hands the (lack of) customer service and pre-orders disappearing antics are verging on criminal. Has anyone for example who pre-ordered Outlaws several months ago received theirs or been given an explanation why pre-orders aren't being shown in their order history?
