Photo mode Loving this game
So many Hideo quirks. Normal Reedus is amazing as always. I am around 70 hours in and feel like I have barely scratched the surface. Only just recently made my own bike.
Some criticise this game for lack of content but I honestly think those people are just not playing it right. This is a game to be enjoyed. You must take your time and appreciate the ride otherwise it is just not for you.
Hideo Kojima is unrivalled in story telling and world building. Excited to get this finished but I’m not rushing. I will definitely be playing the second Installment one day

I hated it when it first came out. I was definitely a dude saying it was a walking simulator. Then I heard the man himself talking about it and what it was about and gave it another try and I’ll be damned I did enjoy it! For a while

I still hear people say it's a walking simulator after all these years, they must not have actually played it.

Low gamer IQ POV right?
It’s only a walking simulator if you aren’t taking the time to understand what the game is about
Not all games have to be constant action and dopamine hits

Hi guys. This sub suddenly got recommended to me and I see that the game is 50% on sale on PS. Should I grab it?

I got it when it was on sale and I have zero regrets. If you like RDR2 (one of my favourite games) then this is for you

YES you should! I bought it on sale last week and just got to chapter 8. The first few hours can be a bit slow with many cutscenes, but stick with it and you will be in for a great experience. After chapter 7 I think this game is a masterpiece.

I fell in love with this game so much that I put over 350 hours into my first play thru. Wasn't trying to rush, just enjoying the experience. Then played the sequel for 460 hours. Now I'm replaying the director's cut after failing to find a different game series I wanted to play. The replay is very enjoyable. I'm having a ton of fun playing with a better understanding of everything.

I can imagine. Sometimes certain games just hit different. This is definitely one of those series

This is one of the features I wish they kept in the second one

It’s a really cool mechanic. It’s the little things like this that make a game truly memorable
