  1. I thought the music was just a case of an ill-suited licensed song being chosen for the trailer, but looks like it's an original song composed for the game :doh:

    Hope it isn't indicative of the rest of the music in the game.

     

     

    Anyway, this is apparently being developed by the studio that made Rayman Origins and Legends, both of which were fantastic!

    So I'm still hopeful that this is going to turn out well :fear1:

    Wondering why they made the price look so edgy. Is that what the kids these days like?

    Ya same, didn't like the new prince, old one from pop trilogy, that prince had a charm to him.

    DmC Dante vibes from the Prince but other than that it looked pretty nice to me. VFX and all look really good.

     

     

    That's not the Prince apparently.

    The game looks cool to me though. And I'm just glad the franchise is coming back in some form.

    read this excerpt from PS Blog (link https://blog.playstation.com/2023/05/24/marvels-spider-man-2-gameplay-revealed/)

     

    First, get a glimpse at the near-instant switching between both our playable Spider-Men. And if that wasn’t enough, traversal gets a significant speed boost in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2! Cue the Web Wings, which can be deployed by either Spider-Man to move about the city swiftly and urgently. Use wind tunnels between skylines to move with haste and behold the capabilities of the PS5 console’s SSD as you soar above the concrete jungle, zipping past all manner of cars, buildings, and people (and pigeons). If you thought traversal in our first two games was exhilarating, just wait until you experience it firsthand in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. 

     

    and watch this 1.17 minute mark onwards - why SSD is not pulling any punches, mach speed or not

     

     

     

    What part of it suggests that it's possible only on the PS5's SSD though?

    Not counting the marketing spiel from the blogpost.

    I didn't enjoy BOTW much but this game is on whole another level. Incredible. So much to explore, so much to find..

     

    Yeah, I really liked BotW, but I didn't adore it as much as many other folks did. 

    TotK feels like it's on a whole different level.

     

    IGN was right in their review when they said that TotK makes BotW feel like the first draft of this formula.

    But reviews are pointless. It's not a flawless game by any means.

     

    No game is flawless. And I'm sure Elden Ring too has reviews where they don't go into its issues at all.

     

    It's probably because the reviewers felt the minor flaws these games have are negligible in the grand scheme of things. That's why we have so many different reviews to check and base our opinions on. It's pointless fixating on any particular one.

    It has issues that game developers had solved in early 2000s. 

     

    Not sure which issues you're referring to here. But let me tell you, this is a game that most game developers in 2023 can't even dream of making.

    I really don't understand the reviews and scores. I tried BOTW once (gave it like 10+ hours) but found it boring. The open world was really bland and the combat is also sub-par. Seeing the same kind of reviews for a sequel which largely looks the same albeit expanded makes me wonder, am I out of touch or what?

     

    I think it's because many of us are so used to games holding our hands and dictating how we have fun that we have forgotten how to have fun on our own.

    The kind of player freedom that these games offer can take a while to get used to. They give you a set of amazing tools and systems and let you loose in their sandbox. The sense of discovery and exploration that comes with it is incredible.

     

    It took a while for the gameplay loop to click for me as well. But once it did, it set a whole new benchmark for what open-world games need to be. This and Elden Ring really put most western developed open-world games to shame.

     

    All that said, TotK is much denser and a lot more fun than BotW. Would suggest giving it a fair shot over BotW.

    Wut? 

     

    That's the reality of it. 

     

    Check this review, he isn't even discussing the game, it's good or bad design choices. Just praising it to high heavens. 

     

     

    If this were in hindi, all you would hear is 

     

    Bahut badhia hai...

    Bahut achha hai ... 

    .

    .

    .

    Repeat ad nauseum.

     

    It really deserves all the high praise, man.

    It's an incredible f**king game!

    Guys book your tickets for Evil Dead Rise. It’s an excellent movie. One that is best enjoyed in a movie hall on a giant screen in a silent and dark environment. It is Resident Evil Dead. It is Resident Evil in Evil Dead’s universe. And vice verse. It is gory. It is sick. It is fantastic. 
     

    Add: book the DBox recliner. It vibrates and moves and sh*t. It’s fun. My show had no subtitles. 
     

    Side note: PVRs quality has been going off a bit. The popcorn was less than good. The soda was ₹400. 
     

     

     

    +1 to this.

    This was a really fun movie. Though the 2013 remake was gorier and had better kills, this one has better characters and acting.

    The fact that kids are involved in this makes it even more intense.

    And yeah, none of the violence was cut.

    Where are the screenshots? :threatenlumber:

     

    Haven't taken many, and I'm not really happy with the ones that I have taken. 

    The photo mode isn't very good in this :/

     

    But then again, I'm kinda tempted now to do another playthrough just for screenshots :lol:

    Cat ears & Ashley's Armor are definitely needed . I learned this the hard way ?.

     

    I think you mean the Chicken Hat. You get the Cat Ears after completing the Pro S+ run :P

    I finished first blind run, obviously missed the dolls.

     

    Just in case you didn't know, you can tell which chapters you're missing the doll on by looking at the results screen for each chapter. The ones where you've got the doll will have a small round icon on them.

    Such a fantastic f**king game! I don't even remember the last time I replayed a game back-to-back, let alone do it 5 times in a row (like I did for this).

     

    Anyway, here are all my playthroughs in order (no spoilers):

    Its in game music as well

     

    Yeah, that's what I meant by soundtrack :P

    He says "at the same decibel level" which means he is matching the volume level of the remake to that of the original. So it's the tweeter who is lying as per his own words, not Crowbcat. 

     

    The ambience volume isn't as low as what crowbcat showed in his video.

    There are places in the remake where there is indeed more of an eerie silence, but that's an artistic choice and works well in the game.

    I will probably switch to new audio in next play through.. first play thru did the OG audio

     

    The OG audio is just the soundtrack if I'm not wrong.

     

  13. 2 hours ago, Assassins Creed said:


    Dang, the Audio in OG is Pure Gold Standard

     

    The audio for the remake has been purposely dialled down in that video to make it look bad.

    I am not going for Professional S+ without the upgrade ticket especially w/o Chicken hat / Ashley Armor and 15 saves limit  - it will be too much for me ? .

     

    Also for Platinum i need to do - Standard S+ , Hardcore S+ and Professional A ( For Chicago sweeper for Gun fanatic ) .

    I can combine all three in 1 Professional S+ playthrough. Or do Hardcore S+ and then Professional S+ after that . Second option would definitely make things way easier. But i can only play on weekend hence going for 1 playthrough with infinite ammo .

     

    I'm opting for a Standard S+ and a Hardcore S+ to get all the achievements. Will probably do a relaxed Professional run later on without having to worry about achievements.

    Planning to use Handcannon with Infinite ammo to makes things easier on Professional playthrough. Can do it from Chapter 2 itself via purchasing exclusive upgrade via PS store. 

     

    Yeah, that upgrade ticket will definitely make things easier.

    I'm tempted to get it too, but trying to hold off :P

  16. 7 hours ago, Krazyniks said:

    Yes aiming for S+ . 

     

    Would suggest unlocking Ashley's armor (which makes her invincible and unable to be carried away) and Leon's chicken hat (which reduces damage taken) prior to that.

    But if you're confident and you know what you're getting into, then go for it :P

    Will go for Professional (new game with Handcannon ) next. 

     

    Why NG though? Are you aiming for S+ or doing it just for fun?

    I actually tried to do No healing/Handgun &Knife/Silent Stranger - all in 1 Assisted NG+ playthrough. But Struggled badly in Chapter 8 at 1 point and hence focused on No healing playthrough in 1 save and Handgun/Knife on another save from that point 

     

    Yeah, I did the no-heal, no-merchant, knife and handgun-only run on Assisted and it was the toughest playthrough for me so far. And to think, I was actually feeling like I was John Wick initially :lol:

    Saddler especially was a bitch to take down with less than half my health remaining at that point.

    I probably should've been more mindful about my health early on though and not underestimated the difficulty.

    Has anyone gotten the mine craft trophy? Pray tell the tricks 

     

    No tricks as such other than remembering enemy positions and taking them down before they shoot you :/

    I did it on Hardcore, but I reckon it would be much easier to do on Assisted.

    almost end game now dreading to finish it -_-

     

    I'm personally finding the game to be very replayable. Three playthroughs done and I'm already looking forward to a fourth one :lol:

    The different item and weapon unlocks (along with the achievements, of course) are really good incentives. Even planning what kind of playthrough to do next has been fun.
