Best moment for remake and remaster so far. We have FF7R, RE2, RE3, FF XII ZA. I'm so happy what we've got.
Fantastic generation. Just platinumed infamous second son last night. For a launch game it still stands up pretty well. So many amazing experiences this gen and I have yet to finish them all so a few in the backlog for PS5 already.
I know it's not your intention, or even your thought, but your comment kind of makes Mass Effect Andromeda, and the colossal risk they took with jetissoning the trilogy, seem a tad heroicSequels, open world and remakes. With game dev budgets reaching the sky because of their continued obsession with photorealism and that almost everything bigger is better, most games adhered to a similar safe formula with no risk and so much left to be desired. Game devs need to go back to the drawing board, otherwise the increasing game dev costs will not be sustainable outside of services.
For those who were remotely on the fence of taking risks had their dreams squandered thanks to them. Def deserve to put them in the hall of fame.I know it's not your intention, or even your thought, but your comment kind of makes Mass Effect Andromeda, and the colossal risk they took with jetissoning the trilogy, seem a tad heroic
The entire generation was shit.
Once popular genres vanished, Sony fans got more annoying, politics invaded the industry, Nintendo left the home console market, Xbox continued to have no exclusives, game development cost more and took longer, the best games were remasters/remakes of old ones, journalism got worse, and we didn't get a single Ridge Racer. Fuck this generation
Save ghost of Tsushima for PS5 if u can, that ps5 patch will be god tier
theres still plenty of good stuff to play tho, and I don't even download all the patches and shit, and game install times are like literally 20 minutes most of the time.Made me realise that I'm falling out of love with games. Possibly my last generation.
I miss the old days of PS1, SS and even the OG Xbox and PS2 era where you could buy a game and it'll work straight out the box. No need to download a 20gb patch on day one or wait for the game to install on the hard drive.
The incoming future of cloud gaming or subscription models really turns me off gaming. I might go retro from now on.
In fact, if Sony, MS and Nintendo got together and released a retro only console where I could download the whole Xbox, Nintendo and Sony back catalogues - and I mean everything - then I'd be more excited for that than the upcoming generation.
Final word on this generation:
Fuck, I'm old.
I was already happy that I did this. You’ve upped the happiness. Also, I’m in the process of watching and rewatching as many samurai movies as I can before I start.
My only real complaint is the English dub fits the lip sync, the Japanese doesn't, made me switch back English unfortunately
