I played it years ago. I had a blast. Plan was to play with my buddy but our schedules never really lined up. So I basically did my characters main story and got to max level. Never did any end game content so can't really speak to that. But just a fun game to quest in while advancing an interesting story.

The first thing that makes me not want to play a mobile game is it being a game on mobile phones.

This is very helpful insight, thank you! All very valid points and some I wouldn’t have thought of myself.

I will more than likely be going this route

I remember abusing the hell out of the beta to get infinite 2 days of XBL with the intent of playing Halo Reach only to play a LOT of Blur instead

The thing is when you look at the history how (semi) open world games originated it has a couple of reasons but a very notable one is the hidden wall..

It's something you never hear anymore but a major complaint of many gamers was the hidden wall. A 2 feet fence you can't jump over, or just literally a hidden wall that you can't move anymore in that direction because the game doesn't allow you.

That breaks immersion and (semi) open world gameplay is a good way to counter that. With semi I'm talking about games like halo, big maps, but (hidden) walls of the maps are intertwined with the envirmonment, like cliffs or mountains.

Open world gameplay also became more popular because you could offer more content but a lot of developpers cheaped out in this regard by making missions dull with rehashed content and ubisoft is probably the worst in this (you mentioned captured this outpost and the first thing I had to think about was ubi's far cry series).

Maybe you should try the real successor of the first far cry, which is not far cry 2 but crysis. Allthough far cry 2 is one of the best far cry's imo, but that has a lot to do with the fact that ubisoft had to compete with crytek, who made the original far cry and also crysis.

I've always loved linear storytelling when it's good. You don't need an open world and maybe replayability to have a good time worth your money.

I played the Morganites with a highly efficient green economy. The Gians loved me.

No get it on current gen, all the support for last gen is done now, it’s not even worth it.

Yea. It was def ps2 because I was excited about the dvd player aspect of it. There was a little IR sensor you plugged into the controller port. It’s been so long so I guess that’s it and my mind is just messing with me.

Why would I want to play video games in a crowded pub? Sounds like a pain in the ass and annoying

Great job OP. Looks amazing.

START PRAYING BOY

I believe the PlayStation 3 remote was the skinny long one, but it has been decades so I may be misremembering.

Been using a Xbox X controller for my PC for about 3 or 4 years now. No issues. It's not in constant use as I like KB/M, but it's not going idle either.

I’d highly suggest ignoring those comments, the game is a masterpiece.

Yeah, I have been playing a certain mobile collectible hero game for 2+ years, and have never spent a single cent on it. Just because some games are cash grabs doesn't mean you have to give them anything.

Don’t even bother trying it. They’ve stopped supporting it and it’s way buggier. It also runs like shit apparently

You better not waste your time

Probably not what you want to hear, but Minecraft is great for engineering. People have built awesome machines in that game.

<3

I have all of those(my PS2 is a slim silver though)

Looks like a full on anime Zelda, which is not a compliment

I feel the combination of PS5 + laptop is better than just having one desktop machine. More flexibility, less worrying about specs and what you can/can’t play. Portability.

The PS5 that you already have (you’ll lose money when you sell it) will remain current for at least another five years where you can play the newest games at the same settings as every other PS5 owner, with games optimized for this specific hardware. Plus probably another 2-3 years where it gets first party games.

I’ve never been happy with my gaming PC after three years and always felt compelled to upgrade it further. This may be different for you, but for me I’ve found that separating gaming and non-gaming computer tasks (work) has been working better for me. I also prefer not being so dependent on Windows and being able to switch back to Linux or even consider a Mac down the road.

>here is my opinion i think the first game is a very great concept and story, game play is eh.

Really? I think the gameplay was very fun not as deep and fun as 2s but still very solid foundation. You notice the age of the game immediatly but imo the only eh gameplay "feature" was the camera xD

This is why I liked TLoU 1/2. It gave the feel of a big open world, but almost nowhere to go except where they want you to.
