I kinda been wanting to get a PS4, but idk if it's worth getting since I only play Destiny and rumors have been going that Destiny 2 comes on PC. I like to play on a console but the whole "pay to play online" idea prevented me from already owning one. Is it worth upgrading to a PS4 anyways?

pkmin3033 April 1st, 2015 11:49 PM

Right now I would say that it isn't, unless you really want to get your hands on some of the PS4 exclusives that have been released already. The library is pretty sparse right now, and I honestly wish I'd actually waited, instead of buying it the second I saw some appealing JRPGs announced, aha.

If you're only going to play Destiny on it, then it definitely isn't worth it for you, as you'd have to pay to play online, and you can play online for free on PS3. PS+ does give you free games each month (and a lot of them are pretty good - Dishonored this month!) but if you're not really interested in anything the PS4 has to offer exclusively right now, I'd say forget about it for a while and rethink it maybe at the end of the year; holiday season is always a good time for new game releases.

Allright good to know :)
Thanks!

Just wait 'till May. Omega Quintet is coming at the end of April xD

pkmin3033 April 2nd, 2015 6:44 AM

Omega Quintet looks...odd. Like it could be good, but I get this horrible feeling it's going to be more like Ar Tonelico Qoga than Hyperdimension Neptunia on the scale of things. Call it a vaguely founded feeling of dread. Still going to buy it, though. xD;

And my copy of Xenoblade Chronicles 3D arrived today. Farewell, PS Vita. See you sometime next month. xD

Good (or at least playable) gameplay? I'll remind you that Mugen Souls was very cute, and look how THAT turned out. xD

Well, generally, but they've been moving away from divisive grinding as of late. That's why they've started implementing the cheat shop into their games- which is a great addition, it really does well to welcome crowds previously put off by grinding without alienating those that don't mind it.

pkmin3033 April 3rd, 2015 2:11 AM

Now all they need to do is remove the ridiculously high entry barriers so that newer players will be able to pick them up without being overwhelmed by the game's assumption that you'll instantly master all the subtle nuances of the gameplay, aha.

I can't master or grind at all in SMT IV. I heard it'd be difficult but the difficulty is beyond my limits. I am not looking forward to SMT X FE if it'll be this damn hard.

The Press Turn system just takes some getting used to, and there's a lot of leeway; though the mainline Shin Megami Tensei games are (in)famously difficult (especially 3), SMTIV- despite being difficult- is incredibly forgiving.

What difficulty are you playing on?

...what the goodness. There are no words, emoticons or animated gifs that can adequately describe how absolutely fucking INCREDIBLE that is.

I'll be getting to Gaur Plains either later tonight or tomorrow in Xenoblade 3D...I'm going to have to try listening to that whilst I explore.

SMT is pretty much definition of difficulty ;)

On the other hand, they aren't capable of making non-grindy games yet imo.


Btw, since we have changed title, what do you guys think of Titanfall losing MS exclusivity?

Hi! April 4th, 2015 3:06 PM

Really feels like Titanfall faded into almost irrelevancy reaal quick. I suppose if they bring it back with a bang it could do well but an online-only multiplayer-only shooter... Cmon.

I really think of it as one of those "I'd rather have a multiplayer-only game than a game with emphasis on multiplayer and a tacked on singleplayer" type deals. Titanfall really did feel like a game that was built for online specifically.

That said, the gameplay's fun enough that I would love a singleplayer mode based around it (movement in TF feels really good- surprisingly so, to the point that it's my favorite thing about the game. Local Multiplayer would be nice, as well (or, at the very least, Local Cooperative Online Multiplayer). Being able to play against bots would be nice- and in that sense, a Titanfall 2 has a lot of potential. Whether it'll live up to it...eh...

pkmin3033 April 4th, 2015 10:09 PM

I'm not surprised; MS exclusives seem to rarely remain so for very long unless Microsoft has a hand in developing or publishing them. The principal of it annoys me, because I think the Xbone should keep its exclusives - it's going to be the Xbox 360 all over again if it keeps losing them - but on the other hand it doesn't bother me all that much, as I don't own an Xbone and I honestly don't much care about Titanfall or its sequel; it's not a series that has ever really attracted my attention...mostly because of the online aspect being given so much focus.

I suppose I'll leave off judging Titanfall 2 until I've seen some more information about it, but I doubt it will appeal to me either unless the focus does a complete 180...which is unlikely to happen.

Feel like that might have been a result of it being over-hyped, as the next huge shooter franchise when it fell somewhat short of expectations and didn't bring anything significantly game-changing to the industry. But that's just my opinion.

Someone was using Metal Mario. :V

I had a win turn into a loss though once or twice in MK8. I put it down to bad lag or somesuch. Rare occurrence thankfully.

Hi! April 7th, 2015 11:23 AM

New Deus Ex teased - Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. Coming to PS4/XB1/PC. Don't wanna post any screens or whatever until I see actual gameplay footage JUST IN CASE.

Hi! April 7th, 2015 1:20 PM

OK ITS OFFICIAL. New Deus Ex game starring ADAM JENSEN AGAIN.

http://abload.de/img/jens2kbuor.gif

I really loved the original Adam Jensen game (Deux Ex: Human Revolution). Was definitely not a typical shooter and much more based on stealth, exploration and player choice as well as a great dystopian future world and awesome atmosphere. I'm really glad they're doing another.

http://a.pomf.se/fnyemp.gif

I actually think it was quite underrated. So I'm excited for this!

EDIT: DAMN I ACCIDENTALLY DOUBLE POSTED INSTEAD OF EDITED MY LAST POST. SORRY :(

Sonata April 7th, 2015 4:18 PM

I actually really liked the last one even though I kinda had a feeling it would be one of those games that I just kinda blew off. I'm interested to see what they'll be doing with Adam next after how the last one ended.
