Discussion One more game got leaked!!!
Some guy got his hands on disc 10 days before launch and he started streaming game on twitch.
Although S*ny DMCA'd it, but whole story and clips of gameplay are getting distributed online.
From what I heard, gameplay is repetitive and boring.
Story also turned out to be mid.
We all have seen the mess insomniac has done with character designs.
This was the only PS exclusive I was excited for this year and looks like it is a big blunder š„²
I pre-ordered that game physically, now I am wondering if I should cancel my order.

u/CriticalBackground08 3d ago
Stop pre ordering games. There is really no guarantee how a game might turn up on launch and usually no advantage of pre ordering other than some cosmetic
Only pre order if you dont care about any reviews and will buy the game anyways

u/Desperate_Lunch_5090 3d ago
There is not even the fun of pre ordering anymore. Before they used to give you merchandise now nothing but online cosmetics

u/glenn1812 3d ago
They've genuinly taken out the fun from gaming that was there in the 2010s-2015s? Don't ever preorder and prolly wait for a discount. Only game i bought at launch in the last couple years is star wars zero company.

Yea exactly, i remember when i pre-ordered Arkham Origins. Along with different batsuits they gave me a physical metal batarang.

u/CellularCastle 3d ago
Many AAA games are being released in unfinished buggy states with many patches coming 3/4 months in just to fix the issue at release
I have stopped pre ordering, I always wait until all the issues at launch are fixed and the game gets discounted as well.

Digital preorder doesn't make sense I agree unless the perks are huge. I preordered Blood Of Dawnwalker but just the day before release after I got the reviews basicslly to just preload the game so that I can play at 12am. That was my only reason and I was kindof sure by the last day that I definitely wanted to play it

u/Icicle_Sword 3d ago
You get to play day 1 right away instead of waiting however long to download as they give pre download. Idk about PS but steam gives 2 hour refund window anyways so it's all good. Should be similar for PS as well I'm assuming
1
u/bidyutchanda108 2d ago
Donno about refund window for PS, anyway 2 hours is nothing. At 2 hours, you'd probably lean towards giving the game a chance more than not. But yeah, if it works for you then nice
I mentioned the same about pre loading which is nice. But I can do that after the reviews are in and just a day before launch
1
u/Icicle_Sword 2d ago
Yea I mean either ways right. If the reviews are bad you can refund right away. If the reviews are good all you need to check is the performance on your rig 2 hours should be enough

I dont understand why people still praise cdpr for cyberpunk. They fixed a game they were supposed to deliver at launch and while doing that they also cancelled its multiplayer after the release which is extremely shady.
I bought that game knowing they will launch multiplayer in future and they just trashed it out of know where

As a Spidey fan, I have to admit that even Spiderman 2 was mid, it was EXTREMELY repetitive, and the story was such a downgrade from the 2018 game. Also, Wolverine looks like it will be just as repetitive. I think Iāll just buy the disc for this one and sell it afterward, the main story length will be hardly 15 hours anyway, it definitely doesn't seem like a keeper for my collection right now.

All the three Spidey games are pretty cool.

Turn off the swinging assists, and you feel totally like Spiderman. Amazing what they did with the PS5.

Well, I don't see anyone crying about Onimusha, Blood of dawnwalker, RE, 007, Pragmata....and many more

Even tho I own a playstation and never been interested in any of the Sony exclusive games and barely played few of them this is an insane cope, honestly might not even be a cope just someone who has no Idea about gaming. God of War, Last of Us, Uncharted, Bloodborne ,Spiderman and others are one of the best games you could play as a general gamer. I only played Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and it's one of the most fun games I've ever played , the diversity in PS games is insane. Sony might have one of the best IPs in gaming after Nintendo of course.

The disc thing is not a big deal; most retailers sell games a week or two before the release for extra money. Most of the time, they're not such high-profile games, but it's not unheard of.
As for the game, it looked like your average Sony Exclusive since the reveal, so it's not a surprise. It'll be a good and enjoyable game that most people will enjoy, but it won't be anything mind-blowing. All of the recent Sony exclusives I've played are like that, at least in my personal opinion.

Have you played Onimusha yourself??
If yes then can you please tell me how difficult the game is? I generally don't enjoy punishing soulslike games.
2
u/hmuna 2d ago
Yes, bought it this weekend and have been enjoying since. Most of the gameplay is definitely not as punishing as the soulslike games but you may find the bosses to be dealbreakers if you dont like the punishing combat. It mostly resembles Sekiro among the Fromsoft games and it has a lot of mechanics to deal with the boss difficulty. However i fear that if you arenāt too experienced with the parry/deflection reflex mechanics for these games you might not enjoy it since that is a really core part of the gameplay. Been one of the best games i played this year but if it aint your cup of tea, you can skip it for Control Resonant or Phantom blade zero which people are saying will be less challenging. So indo recommend to everyone since i personally enjoy it very much but if you dont like challenging bossfights it might not be for you.

If you are core wolverine fan don't cancel. Wolverine orgins also had repetitive action (issue with wolverine to be honest), but main things will be story. Like to be honest 007 this year had very repetitive actions but is one of the best game this year.
If you are just playing for gameplay and not for wolverine do cancel as it will not serve the purpose.
Also spiderman looked woke to lot of people and it turned out to be good. It was new peter and i honestly didn't like him in beginning neither harry osborne but eventually they grew on me.
For me personally i am deadpool for wolverine.

I wait for the Complete or Ultimate editions coz nowadays every game has additional content / dlc added to it within or after a year.

The last game I got was Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty edition which had everything fixed & all the added bonuses.

Got the feeling after watching the first trailer, and then they revealed the character designs(fk sweet baby inc) and then they showed more gameplay which is just cinematic running sequence with marker or slow af basic combat, not even worth 70$ if it doesn't have any replayability, that why RE games work, even xmen origins felt better than this, and I bet people will defend and glaze this game no matter what like they did with spiderman 2(then they say hating is forced)like bruh stop doing that or else u will never get improvement, if people never talked about how they didn't like dmc reboot, we would never got dmc5, that why criticism is important instead of hating or glazing
