No I just play Fifa but just career mode.

my nephews and nieces call me to play among us(my youngest nephew is always the fking imposter) or Fortnite(I don't like this game or get why people do)

I prefer to play single player adventure games instead of watching tv shows. Only multiplayer games that are fun are call of duty but with little kids can't really play in the house and don't want to stay up till 1am to play.

Metascores of all Playstation games released in the last 7 months. You can see how better we have it now than how it was with PS4

 

[crzdcolombian]

That’s pretty bad.

Spider-Man was like a 6 hour game with a few side quest for the last game

Are just blitzing through the main story or are you taking your time, checking every nook and crany? The game is at least 10 hours of good content.

Not many side quest to speak of…

I mean the side quest are better than the 1st one. I like you have an app and can find stuff to do. If it’s a type of mission you don’t like you can skip it.

Combat is better as well but a crazy short side quest game for $50. Not a system seller especially since it on ps4.

All the big Sony games will be on ps4. The longer games stay on that platform the longer ps5 games will suck. Same with the Xbox. Did you guys see what the new halo was going to look like so they could get it to work on the Xbox one as well haha

It looks better now.

Again, game development takes time. They were pressured by Microsoft to show something

Just finished God of War. It is amazing, a game everybody that is a Zelda&Metroidvania fan should play.

A winter to end all winters. Ragnarok will be amazing.

Might play it again on ps5. It was amazing.

I bought the assassin's creed valhalla dlc just to run about Ireland. Fuck it's so boring. Finishing that campaign ruined me, don't know why I bothered.

Ghost of tsushima is fucking amazing, a must play.

Anyone played returnal or ratchet and clank?

 

[wera]

Returnal is great. Haven't played the new Ratchet & Clank, apparently it's not that different from the 2016 game, too much shooting, meh humour, uninspiring story, but everything else is fun. At least that is what fans that played all the games in the series say, that it's average, midtier R&C game. Might buy it when its 20 bucks

I had a feeling it had disappointed. There was a lot of hype about it before release and once it released it just died.
I might do the same with returnal in late summer or whenever it dips. Looks interesting.

Ps5?

 

[wera]

Playing on PS5, but it is a PS4 game from 2018. If you have a PS5, you can get it in PS+ Collection.

 

[brehme1989]

PS 5 will be bought when the new Gran Turismo is out. Till then, PS4 is home to some lovely spiders.

First the Hong Kong fiasco, now this. Blizzard gets ZERO from me. What kind of shitshow have they became...

Video game giant Activision Blizzard Inc., maker of games including World of Warcraft and Diablo, fosters a “frat boy” culture in which female employees are subjected to constant sexual harassment, unequal pay, and retaliation, according to a lawsuit filed by the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing.

A two-year investigation by the state agency found that the company discriminated against female employees in terms and conditions of employment, including compensation, assignment, promotion, and termination. Company leadership consistently failed to take steps to prevent discrimination, harassment, and retaliation, the agency said.

According to the complaint, filed Tuesday in the Los Angeles Superior Court, female employees make up around 20% of the Activision workforce, and are subjected to a “pervasive frat boy workplace culture,” including “cube crawls,” in which male employees “drink copious amounts of alcohol as they crawl their way through various cubicles in the office and often engage in inappropriate behavior toward female employees.”

The agency alleges male employees play video games during the workday while delegating responsibilities to female employees, engage in sexual banter, and joke openly about rape, among other things.

Female employees allege being held back from promotions because of the possibility they might become pregnant, being criticized for leaving to pick their children up from daycare, and being kicked out of lactation rooms so male colleagues could use the room for meetings, the complaint says.

There are even worse parts described in the lawsuit.

Jesus.... Glad I've never been a wow/blizzard person

It's probably like this everywhere, all companies from <90s>00s have this sort of activity but on different levels, in my opinion.

 

[wera]

I doubt people at Naughty Dog or Valve are like that....

Got rachet and clank on the ps5 imho a good game but nothing spectacular...
First ps5 game i play that feels like it was developped for the ps5 and not the 4.
The characters are a bit lame so you dont get too much from the cut scenes...
I do kind of like the story with the diffrent universes...
All in all imho a good game to pass some time till the real blockbusters come out on ps5 hard to tell if it s worth the money though.
