Like most Ys games, they’re a trudge at first, and some graphical letdown, but they’re still great stories with great characters. I remind myself to power through the beginning each Ys game and eventually find myself loving it.

Ys X Nordics. Tons of fun.

Ys X: Nordics you cowards!!!

Disgusting. I have never and will never use my phone or a gaming console in the bathroom. I go to the bathroom, and then fucking leave. I’ll never understand sitting there forever.

You know those surveys that ask if you Agree, Strongly Agree, Disagree, Strongly Disagree? That kind of crap? Yeah, those don’t work. They’re idiotic, because your average person doesn’t really know which accurately reflects them and they gravitate towards what’s easier for them personally to respond with.

This will have a similar effect. Lots of people won’t give the accurate reason. They’ll give a comfortable reason.

I like that they are trying something new though. Critique certainly doesn’t mean don’t try it or don’t play with it.

But… they don’t. Their games are old the minute they’re released. Sure they have enough bare minimum charm to wow the masses, but when you truly take a skeptical and honest eye to them compared to many other games, you realize how lazy they are with the copy/paste approach most of the time, inability to add basic common niceties of modern gaming, and generally lacking worlds that feel unfinished.

If it weren’t for the IP name recognition, most of their games would be panned as meh.

Decided to finally go watch gameplay of this game.

It’s definitely a fan ripoff mashing up Breath of the Wild with the newer open world pokemon games.

I’m not saying nobody else is allowed to make these kinds of games. But this absolutely is just trying to rip those off. Looks as unimaginative, boring, and empty as all of Nintendo’s adventure games.

They’ve stolen Nintendos IP of providing half-assed garbage and watching people eat it up.

It’s clunky and the novelty wears off quickly

Referring to all Nintendo games.

People save Google places? Who the hell needs to save 3000 of them? Wtf

Youtube shorts is fucking stupid. I never like any of them.

Interesting. My Steam remote playing from my PC through my house is excellent. I do it to my Steam Link, I used to do it to my phone, and now I also do it to my Steam Deck.

It’s the Playstation-made remote play apps that suck on my PC or my phone.

Both my PC and my PS5 are hardwired the same to the router, and both have all the ports forwarded and blah blah.

Shit yeah, no wishlisting, no ignoring, no gifting. Its pathetic.

At least the original PS3 store was decent for its time, but they ruined that.

Playstation Remote Play is garbage no matter the location or setup. I’ve tried many over many years in multiple houses. Sony is horrible at this.

Chiaki for Steam Deck/PC and PSPlay app for Android are insanely better quality for remote playing Playstation.

Sales on PSN are appalling compared to Steam as well. Plus you can also get Steam sales on other sites like Fanatical.

Steam also has better remote play, and Steam custom controller profiles with nearly any controller are amazing.

Also nearly no backwards compatibility issues, whereas PS5 will only play/stream limited games from the past.

Cool. Well that is certainly a step forward. Thanks.

This reminds me of my favorite website for demonstrating shitty designs.

Have they solved the issue that multiple people can’t be playing at the same time, or the same game at the same time?

I don’t even do families. One of us just goes into offline mode for the time. Slightly obnoxious.

Try getting non-playstation games on your Playstation. What about games from older Playstation? Can’t get most of those on there. And let’s not pretend you “own” Playstation games anymore when so many require online and patches anyways.

Steam is more value for money and improved services and support. I used to be a die hard Playstation fan but it got old being treated like shit.

Steam keys can be found dramatically cheaper than all of that.

Sony doesn’t put much effort into most things.
