No time to even try the demo but Relink always looked visually gorgeous and good thing it's finally coming out!

I hope the combat is fun with a decent mix of strategy and skill in it. But man... my head just can't take all the screaming! I appreciate these 1-2 second long little cutscenes which slow down the action, but it feels a bit chaotic for my perception, and I think everyone yelling and talking is the reason (well at least it doesn't seem as bad as Tales of Arise). Please respect my ears and give me an option to tone that down or just silence the party members that I'm not directly controlling. Small options like this make huge changes to my enjoyment.

you know, I'm not really into the anime-style action games. I don't dislike them or anything but they almost always feel like 6/10 or 7/10 games that are pretty good but having a hard time competing for my time when I have Baldur's Gate III or Tears of the Kingdom or God of War Ragnarok demanding my attention. 

But the more I look at this game, the more I Read into it, and the more I investigate its charms...I might have to get it. Seriously, it looks really fun! And I'm seeing little to nothing about it being a gacha game or any of those heavily microtransaction-riddled nonsense...and 4 player coop. It really does look like I'd enjoy it. 

I'll wait to see initial impressions, though. Like I said, I'm in the middle of playing Ragnarok for the first time and I'm absolutely loving it, plus I'm halfway through Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and have also started Baldur's Gate III, with FFVII Rebirth on the horizon. so this game definitely has my attention, but I'll likely wait till a sale or until I have more free time. whichever comes first.

I've been playing Ghost of Tsushima these last couple of weeks and I have to say that this game is just incredible. I love it so much. Just did this quest for some demon bow and damn, just didn't expect the journey it would take you on.

Both Nioh and Ghost of Tsushima became some of my favorite games ever.

Last gen was really great for japanese themed games.

I thought Tsushima was a nicely self contained story when I finished it but lately I've been craving another entry BAD. I'd love another romp on a different island.

So how long do first party games take to come to Ps+ Extra? I was looking to play SM2 sometime this year and was going to replay the first, first but was surprised to not see SM Remastered on there.

There's not really a regular schedule. Most games are on there within 2 years. But there are some missing ones like Spider-Man Miles Morales and Remastered are both not on there.

I don't think it will go before 2y on the market after their experience with HFW.

They're asking with regards to Spider-Man Remastered that came out in 2020.  

He mentioned wanting to play SM2, so I'm answering regarding that. He is surprised SM1R isn't there yet, but want to play SM2, that was my take.

And if they don't make a sequel because they have this storyline told, change the settings, timeframe and char but keep the idea of the aesthetic, there is plenty of warring states thematics and countries and cultures to cover =]

Great move by Sony & Square to launch Foamstars on PlayStation Plus.

It might not breakout like Rocket League or Fall Guys, but it has a great chance to find an audience, as small or niche it may be, for its first couple of months. The positive impressions should make this a lot more popular than Destruction All Stars.

Perhaps it even follows Fall Guys strategy of day one for maximum exposure, then a few extra sales on the 6-12 months after (plus sales on PC from day one) and after that becomes f2p with some bonus to cover what people paid before that.

Agreed, I'm thinking to try it now, as its free.

My children will most likely try and even like, I know I wouldn't pay 70 for it though.

I dont trust SE with GaaS games.

Still pissed off that they shut down the global version of Final Fantasy Record Keeper (and they are closing down other GaaS games as well).
