  1. I was mostly basing that off of what Britney from What's Good Games said about it, and she's obsessed with Yakuza so I figured she would know. Is it maybe the kind of spoilers that won't actually mean anything to someone who hasn't played the other games, and therefore won't stick in your brain?
  2. Yeah, the NG+ mode to get that trophy took me 3 hours 15 minutes on very easy. That's with only doing the bare minimum to finish the story, and enough side stuff to buy the last suit.
  3. From what reviewers have said you can play Like a Dragon without having played the others, it's a good entry point. You'll miss out on a few references here and there, but mostly it's its own thing.
  4. @The Cowboy JRPGing Poet It took me about 14 hours, but that's with doing everything that you can on 1 playthrough.
  5. I like it, but it's also not near as constant in the full game as it was in the demo, and it doesn't keep cutting to them the way it did in the demo, it's just voiceover when they do talk.
  6. I've been playing Immortals Fenyx Rising (which definitely should have a colon in it).I'm only a few hours in, but I'm really liking it so far. I don't think the comparisons to Breath of the Wild are really fair, there is definitely some influence there, especially at a surface level, but it doesn't seem like it's trying to be a BotW clone. It really plays a lot more like one of the recent Assassin's Creed games, although I'm enjoying it more than those. I especially like the more light-hearted, cartoony tone and aesthetic, it's something we don't see very much in AAA games outside of Nintendo, and it's really refreshing. It seems like even fantasy games now think they need to feel grounded in a base level of "realism", and then add their more fantastical elements on top of it. Immortals just throws any sense of reality out the window and runs full into cartoon reasoning, and I love it.
  7. Yeah, those NVMe drives are insane, they've already spoiled me. Playing Immortals Fenyx Rising I fast-travelled and there was a like 5 second load screen and I was all "what the hell is this?!" I hope that Cyberpunk runs okay on PS4 for you guys, the videos they released of those versions looked not great performance-wise.
  8. Ether One I actually platinumed this game, because that was easy to do, but I really didn't like it all that much. I liked the concept, but goddamn the puzzle design was obtuse. Like point-and-click adventure levels of obtuse. Every time I got stuck and finally looked up an answer, my reaction was always "I would literally never have figured that out." 2/5
  9. So I bought Kingdom Hearts All in One because it was on sale for $30, but now I kind of feel like I should return it. I have a ton of other games to play: Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Concrete Genie, Star Wars Squadrons, Hyrule Warriors 2, Watch Dogs Legion (which I'm also considering returning), Spider-Man Remastered, and Immortals Fenyx Rising. Kingdom Hearts just seems like a huge thing hanging over my backlog, and the prospect of playing it is kind of daunting, but at the same time I've always been a little interested and I've never seen it get that cheap. Anyone have any advice?
  10. I didn't know something like that existed, it's really cool.
  11. Yeah, I wanna say it was like in the spring that Microsoft pushed a Windows update that lets you have apps on different drives, because that method works for any app, not just games.
  12. This isn't true, you can install Gamepass games to any drive, I always put them on my secondary games-only SSD so I don't fill up my boot drive. There should be a way to choose which drive you're installing it to at the installation stage, but if there's not you can also go into your Windows settings/Apps, find them in the list, click the "move" button and move it to whatever drive you want.
  13. Better to have it be delayed than put out half-finished.
  14. Detroit: Become Human I really liked this game, definitely the best of David Cage's and Quantic Dream's. The character drama was actually pretty engaging, and the characters were all well-realized and well-performed. It's a little naive in its worldview, but the rest of it is good enough to make up for that. It's good enough that I'm working on the platinum. 4/5
  15. Neat, maybe by the time the PS5 version comes out I'll be through my backlog and I can give this game a shot.
  16. Halo: Spartan Strike is on sale on Steam for $0.74, and I liked the first one, so here we are.
  17. Only 51 hours to beat it? That's a lot shorter than I'd been hearing. That makes it a lot more attractive.
  18. That looks cool. Hopefully it will be divorced enough from the first one that new players won't be lost.
  19. I normally do pretty good at only buying games I actually want to play right now, but not this time.
  20. Watch Dogs Legion (PS5) Best Buy has it on sale for $30, plus you get $10 rewards credit... Someone please stop me.
  21. Star Wars: Squadrons Concrete Genie Kingdom Hearts: All in One Collection Sackboy: A Big Adventure DualSense controller Gamestop has a sale going on, and I had a gift card from trading in my PS4 Pro, so... (I already got the black friday ad, so I know all of these prices are less than or equal to the black friday price). *Edit - I don't know why the embeds aren't working, so I put the game names with each picture.
  22. I've been kind of dabbling. I started New Game Plus on Miles Morales so I can get the platinum on that, I finished Bugsnax and Super Mario 3D All-Stars (thoughts in the Games You've Beat thread), and I started Detroit: Become Human from the PS+ Collection. I only played the first level of Detroit so far, but it definitely piqued my interest. The differing approaches was cool. Hopefully the rest of the game holds up. The most impressive thing is the graphics though. Like holy shit, I can't believe this is a PS4 game.
