Whoa, so many fans of Mafia games here ?. From the reviews above, seems like a mid game ?

I think you’re in early parts of the game, give it time, the city is quite good, it grows on you….btw, it also has open highways and deserts. When I played I was blown away by the verticality and the density , especially the place near the delamain hq, and those mega buildings and Asian towns. Only gripe is that the world is not interactive like rdr/gta games, it just sits there like a wallpaper. Hope they improve on that in the sequel.

How else do you think cities will look 50 years from now considering the rapid urbanisation and over population ? It’s a brilliant design aiming for dense verticality instead of wide open areas. Surprised to hear that people here are having trouble driving in this game, I had no issues driving cars or bikes, they handle surprisingly well. I think there would be a setting somewhere to reduce population density, just check it out.

Still haven’t reached that stage, just started act 1. For ex, the game didn’t say to mine organic metal I had to go to the place where installed the device and do it manually. I was thinking it would transport it on its own since I connected it with the base. Had to yt and find this out.

Played for sometime yesterday and today. Cloned the first alter, definitely one of the unique settings I’ve played so far. Only gripe so far is that the game doesn’t do a good job of instructions, had to look into videos online on how to complete some of the tasks.

Completed the game on PS5, whoa what a game !! Although it’s from ps4, gameplay wise, it’s totally next gen. Never played any game which has so many options and so many branches, depending on the choices you make. The best part is that it allows you to revisit each of these choices at some checkpoints in every chapter, so that you can check how the game plays out if you had chosen a different option ! Mind blown 🤯 !

Downloaded the beta on pc via the ea app. Don’t see any option to play the game, only a splash screen with 3 dots next to the game screen. Anyone facing this issue ?

Thanks the quick review, how long is the game ?

Not surprising at all. Most of these superhero movies’ fan base were millennial crowd who grew up watching the related cartoons/reading comics. Many are in their late 30s/40s now and have moved on. The genz, who are the main theatre crowd doesn’t really resonate with these characters. Anyway, watched Mahavatar Narsimha. The animation especially in the last climax fight is excellent. The movie is very devotional in its story telling and not made like some random fantasy stuff. The theatre where I went was full. Looks like they are planning a sequel based on Parashuram.

TL;DR: Xbox achieved its best-ever Q3 with $5.721 billion revenue driven by content, software, subscriptions, and services, despite hardware declines. Microsoft reported 500 million monthly active users, 45% PC Game Pass revenue growth, and record 150 million cloud gaming hours, while raising console and game prices globally.

Yeah I’ve played and completed bloodborne. Ppl said this is easier :-/

I tried twice and left in between, I felt it’s too open, unlike the prev games, there’s no goal/path initially…. many ppl liked it but wherever I went in that first area, got defeated. Still plan to play it someday though !

Watching these “sniper” series of movies on Netflix. Perfect popcorn movies, cool action, nothing heavy and just under 2 hours ! Great watch for weekends !

I feel so too, ppl doing all kinds of weird stuff to make reels. Also looks inspired by that chicken jockey stuff from minecraft ! I hope this didn’t become a trend, and other production houses start creating nuisance in cheaters/making these videos to hype up movies

Yeah they are on gamepass. Hence the query. No way I’m paying for last gen games !

Forget visuals, what about performance ? You should see a diff between 30fps-> 60fps ?

How is the visuals/gameplay in these new age wolf games ? I have been meaning to try but wondering if it’s 1-2 gens too late ! Also are you playing on pc ? Is the game stable ?

Evil west- ps5 : decent AA game, just shoot monsters and stuff, no fluff, play for a while and put down kinda game! Detroit: being human (ps5) : another amazing game from the studio behind heavy rain. Character models/ animations are so friggin good, hard to believe this is a PS4 game. Also loving all the different choices and playing thru the flow chart differently just to see how the other option would’ve played out ! AC: Odyssey (pc/gamepass) : Great game, loving the visuals, story and the gameplay. Perhaps the most fun I’m having with an AC game so far after AC2 !

😂 i think Japan as a setting for an AC game seems off. I’m playing AC odyssey right now and part of the charm is the exploration of all these Greek architecture/buildings and stuff. Sometimes I just keep wondering across the seas/exploring islands like Mykonos as they are gorgeous to look at. But in Japan, I highly doubt this would work as the era in which the game is set was just wooden cottages (at least I’ve never heard of any great Japanese architecture in the old times), so I guess it’s just forests/mountains and towns which would all look pretty generic !

It was available for free as part of ps essentials last month.

Yeah most sequels play the same, but even the assets/env look reused here. I think GoT was a very expansive game which took everyone by surprise. People who were expecting the same here might be disappointed !

I tried with Bellara, neve and Harding, Harding was the only one who reciprocated and she was the one who sacrificed herself at the end ! What about you ?

Totally, the end of the world scenario, the coming together of all the heroes to defeat evil, all against the backdrop of the red eclipse created by Elgharnan. Even the fight between the dread wolf and the arch demon is fantastic ! They should’ve just stuck to this serious/urgent tone thru the main quest line at least instead of just the last few end quests !

Completed the game sometime back. Completed all companion quests and upgraded all of them to “heroes of veilguard”. I think I completed most side quests too, except those treasure hunts and stuff. Overall took me 58 hours. One thing I found most absurd is the hatred due to woke stuff. There’s hardly any woke stuff in the game, if any it’s just for some 5 mins in a companion side quest which is entirely optional. My gripe with the game is the inconsistent writing , lack of enemy variety and lacklustre gameplay. Like the final end quests are some of the best I’ve played but they lose their punch due to the pretty mediocre buildup. Gameplay wise, it’s just spamming buttons/choosing attacks back to back against enemies who feel like sponge. Lack of enemy variety is another issue. Due to this, most side quests feel like a chore. Like most side quests in Dock town results in a confrontation with venetori. Even as a rpg, the levelling system is bad. The side characters are immune to enemies and doesn’t make any sense to upgrade their armour and stuff. I had no issue with visuals though. It’s cartoony, but I got used to it after some time. Overall, I felt the writing + gameplay could’ve been much better developed as the setting had potential. Missed opportunity imo. Maybe I’ll play the prequel - da:inquisition as well someday just to compare!

Congrats, where did you seen your old gfx card ? How much you sold it for and how much did the new one cost ?
