***** Official PS4/PS5 Discussion ***** Where The Greatest Play Edition

Fuggggg, xbox on suicide watch.

Also my x900h just got the 120fps update, going to test it out on COD tonight.

Would be sick is Sony claps back on the Series X but it's possible this patent for the PS5Pro is so far out that MS will have an answer.

As fuk. I want to pick one up but I just got a new tv late last year.

Wait, Micro and Mini LEDs are coming as soon as next year and will change the TV game. I think anyone with a decent 4k HDR set should hang tight right now unless your TV is something you are looking to upgrade yearly.

[Sgt T-Man]

Got the plat for Ghosts od Sushi, one of the best games ever & I can't wait for the sequel.

Now onto TLOU 2.

valhalla is legit

[Deathstroke]

Valhalla is for real. It took the game some time to pick up sail for me, but once it did, It’s astonishingly well done by boobisoft. I didn’t expect such greatness from them in AC. I’d say now after staying with it I’m pleasantly surprised. It was also very buggy at first which made it a challenge to enjoy.

Actually good mini games in the villages too. Drinking game, dice, etc.. drinking from a horn brought back memories lol.

[ZBlacktt]

When you are raiding a village of say level 130 and you hear that horn sound. Then a level 220 Knight Champion from The Order shows up.... wait wut? Starts wrecking your force, lol.

Had every single Playstation since the OG PS (PS, PSOne, PS2, PS3, PS3 Slim, PS4, PS4 Pro). You merely adopted the Master Race. I was born in it, molded by it.

Lol it's legit the most 6/10 game you can buy .... Above average, but it's completely useless. The more I play it, the more I realise it's actually really really bad. The only reason I'm enjoying it because I'm not playing any other game and it's been a while since I've played something so its got that "it" factor right now until cyberpunk releases.

Dont let AC games fool you, it's got an addictive loop, but when you realise none of it matters and how buggy/crappy the game/narrative is its really sobering.

Not gonna lie. That looks really legit.

no idea what you're talking about.

they finally dropped the repetive fetch quests. its now puzzles and small little side stories throughout the world which are fun.

the game world is gorgeous. ive taken so many screenshots.

and the narrative and combat are good. nothing special there but good and fun.

My second favorite game of the year behind ff7remake

So what's the real deal? I keep hearing they dropped the fetch quests but I also hear the game is bloated AF. So is it just bloated with different stuff that in your opinion is more fun or at least different?

[ZBlacktt]

Loving ACV. At 60 hours level 138.... games massive.


Funny as fuk. Thread related.

"bloated" I guess is still true but the real problem was that past games were bloated with repetitive fetch quests that wasnt fun and you had to do some of it to be leveled for main story.

Not the case in this game. Theres still a ton to do but its much higher quality and even if you dont like any of it, you dont need to do it to be leveled to do the rest of the game.

I have hated every AC before, but they finally did it right imo.

Like as an example, one side story I did it was two business partners fighting over profits and you had to side with one or the other. In the end, to 'solve' the story I burned their supply so they had nothing left to fight about lol. And it was quick, no running back and forth fetch quest. just took a few minutes in the same place.

Thanks.... I like the viking theme. Game is a possible pickup for me as it drops in price.

Snagged a disc edition from PS Direct and it came in today. About to play Spiderman now.

I still need to play almost every PS4 exclusive because I had a release day PS4 and honestly hated how slow and loud it was, it was my least used console to date.

[ohiostate124]

Console trying to give me a heart attack. I pretty much have had zero issues so far but i started up Demon’s Souls and it kinda froze on the title screen. Hit the PS button and it made the sound but nothing happened and I couldn’t do anything after that. Had to hold the button on the console down to turn it off. Worked fine after that.

Spiderman froze on me 30 mins owning this console. Power button didn't work, had to unplug the power. Bruh..

Good game tho.

Yeah, the mysteries are alright , they're quick fun snippets, but every single one of them is just too comedic, and dont really affect Eivor's growth or characterisation in the game, its like the entire region is stuck in a sitcome because every single quest or during the quest, the dialogue should be ended with a laughter track.. There aren't any overarching sidequests (not the fetch sort) but some decent ones like you got in Odyssey ....yes Odyssey had a ton of quests, way too much, and people complained so their solution for this game was just to remove them entirely and add these sitcom mysteries instead.


Witcher 3 does this a lot better with quick snippet quests and overarching side quests that add more Geralt and they range from serious to silly.


The main quest sucks as well and the story is definitely worse compared to Odyssey. None of the characters are interesting or memorable, they're just there. They also fukked up the most interesting part of the entire game

Spoiler!

Going to Asgar, the first time you enter there it looks amazing, but so badly utilized and a complete waste of time ... The story in Asgard is absolutely nonsensical, it's filled with meaningless points where you collect some useless chit just to 5 skill points ....30 points of "interest" for 5 skillpoints lol

.




Yeah the game looks great and the Eivor male actor does a great job, but the game writes him really bad. I love that the locations arent repeated constantly like in Odyssey and each place/area feels unique, combat can be fun at times and I've put in over 60 hours, but that's just because I have nothing else to play and in general I do like AC games, but overall as per usual Ubisoft, this game take one step forward, two steps back.

Welcome to the Master Race. Toy have a lot of catching up to do. Probably don't need anything but the PS+ collection for awhile.

Same...I mean...even the ps4 had issues at launch.....i got the "white light of death" on my launch ps4 and had to send it in but the process was super fast n easy

[bartosh]

So I've played about
- 5-6 hours of spiderman
- 10 hours of demon souls
- 3-4 hours of cod
- 2 hours of astros playroom
- 2 hours of monster hunter
- 2 hours of uncharted 4 (holy moly so good)

the only issue i've had so far is one time demon souls got stuck in the title screen, never loading into the main menu. I was able to just go to the home ui and restart and it worked fine after. no crashes, no freezing anywhere yet

[bartosh]

Can anybody comment on sony's 3d audio with a non-sony headset?

What's the best headset I can buy that will work well with a ps5 as well as a PC

I'll probably just buy whatever you guys recommend

The pulse 3D seems pretty damn good for the price. Having said that, I was never a headset guy until PS5 but this chit is crazy.
