it’s the best part of the game, only part where it has stakes. The rest is super easy.

Same issue, not only do you don’t get to keep your weapons and slabs, you don’t have them for the rest of the loop. You get them back the next day though. I can see it making the endgame loop too hard unless you predefine your load out. As for the rest the game is fantastic, just superb. There are so many secrets and details to unlock. And entire two loop questline depends on you finding a note you could easily miss. The rare time when I look for the end of the day so I can get home and start playing, haven’t had that feeling in years. PSA: if you are having a hard time finding batteries, just pull one from the turret. There is no prompt for it, just point at it and press the use button.

Anybody using surge protectors? With the rains, I’ve been worried about power outages, but is there a point in using them on the PS5?

Put in about 20 hours. This is a fun, interesting game, some nice story moments, but nothing that will blow you away. The actual missions are great, the side quests are long and some are fantastic, and even the gigs can take place in parts of the city you didn't even know existed after spending hours there. They should have beefed up the combat or stealth since thats most of the game: that loop gets repetitive after a while. I think people hyped themselves up thinking this was going to be GTA or Elder Scrolls in the future and they would get to live in the world the way they do in those games: explore, find secrets, have relationships. But the open world is closer to something like Far Cry of GOT, a passive playground that exists between missions. Could have been much better, but fun game anyway and no crashes on the PS5.

That Fauchi email is a joke. I also got a whatsapp forward saying China started this as a biological attack, and I ignored it as rantings of frustrated right wing uncles. Getting emails from random nuts doesn’t make you responsible. Btw is there any moderation on this forum topic anymore? Scrolling the past few pages seems like pure r/IndiaSpeaks at this point, full of BS misinformation. This forum could be more important, especially now when we need info about vaccine availability.

I think TLOU2 and Ghost of Tshushima have spoiled us. Personally like that the game has so much color but nothing about the design looked “next gen”.

I got this over the weekend, quiet liked the shooting and sound design, but it gets very repetitive after a few deaths as you run towards the next biome or lose your progression of two hours. As there is a lack of progression, I can see the game becoming something you play for a while, pick up for a session and then eventually just drop out of your game rotation. As for difficulty, I’m about to plat Sekiro, so it isn’t that. If it’s worth it, I can put the effort in. But there just isn’t that much variety to the world and at 5k, I’m not sure it’s worth it.

Anybody played Sekiro? Approaching the end now, for my money the best From Software game I’ve ever played. Thinking of getting DS remake after that.

Just played it a few weeks ago. The shotgun is pretty OP in it too. Huge spread of attack and since its FPS in tight quarters, you basically can mow through them. The enemies and boss fights do become a little harder later, but after you get the shotgun, the fear factor def disappears. Great game though.

If the last 7 years have thought us anything....they will start a border conflict or villainize minority groups as distraction. Where are the celeb suicides when you need them?

Covid-19 Pushes India’s Middle Class Toward Poverty "Already, about 32 million people in India were driven into poverty by the pandemic last year, according to the Pew Research Center, accounting for a majority of the 54 million who slipped out of the middle class worldwide." Jesus christ these numbers...

They would win in a landslide. This is the way things are going to be for the next decade. And the country hasn't even faced a major climate change event yet, which are the next great disaster coming dow the road. But we reap, what we sow...

I know, I follow this thread to get a sense of where people are about this thing. I'm grateful for his work and the info he brings here. Still disagree about this issue.

Do you have a study you can quote on that? Restaurants, bars were open in India from November onwards, but didn't coincide with case increase. But the cases did jump as soon as public trains restarted in Mumbai.

Well its a good thing that you can choose to stay indoors with your family as long as you like then. A personal lockdown which noone will judge you for. We’ll let you know when its safe to come out.

Cases didn't go up because the friends we know went out to restaurants or bars. Believe it or not but the people on these forums are not representative of India's population. We don't make up even 0.1% of the population. Cases went up because offices opened, people went back to work, public transportation started after a year. People went back to normal life because the alternative was becoming poorer at home or back in their village. Do people who want another lockdown have any idea the economic devastation the last one causes on the most vulnerable people in the country? We aren't a developed economy that gets supported by the government; stimulus checks, small business loans, unemployment insurance or stipends, thats not our way. While I work from home, my office guards, peons, liftboys calls me every week begging for work, any work. While we watch Netflix or game at night, most have a second job delivering for swiggy or amazon. I know a lot of people who have had covid, and almost all got better without any issues (I know the opposite is also true for a lot of people), but I don't know a single person who hasn't suffered some kind of economic issue because of the lockdown. People who post here can weather it, most people cannot. It's a disease, I'm not going to downplay it but its a disease where 95% recover with no issues. The alternative is more harmful.

In Mumbai, I would say 75-80% people I know (friends, family, co-workers) have had COVID. And at this point the way people have relaxed over the last month, the second wave was expected. Friends going out unmasked, even people who show up at offices or enter a place remove it as soon as they gain entry. Honestly, people just aren’t afraid of Covid anymore; a friend who had his entire family test positive and quarantined, wife hospitalized for a few days, says the fear is overrated and is more annoyed about the cost and disruption. A better solution than random testing and lockdowns which most people don’t observe anyway and are against would be to strictly control crowded spaces, put entry limits in restaurants, mask education and fining.

So for people who imported their PS5, can you just use the power cord from the PS4 on it? It's universal power supply as per online reports.

Chalo India mein nahi toh US mein sahi. Guessing its universal voltage like the PS4?

This was unplayable on PS4 but how is the experience on ps5? With the patches, has it gotten better?

Instead of fining/flogging, maybe people should have been educated about why and how to wear a mask. It worked in the rest of the world. Publicly, even our dear PM can’t be bothered to wear it anymore. Every third world country has the same attitude: scare people into doing the right thing rather than tell them why they should do it. But once the fear leaves, people go right back to the old ways.

I get the feeling there is near zero chance of this happening. The fear of Covid is gone from the people and for most people the most visible effect (since we barely memorialize or even notice the dead like the US constantly did) has been a loss of business and income. You can only frighten people for so long before they stop caring.

So since listing has been removed from amazon and shopatsc, no new drops are going to come in? Any other options for Anybody who didn’t get it or had their order canceled?

It shows OOS on amazon. I’m literally in the middle of Mumbai so I guess this is some kind of error? Or stock is just not being routed here?
