Michael Kitchin writes, "I simply cannot trust Wrath: Aeon of Ruin, at present. For as tense as combat can feel, it can't match the fear of a game seconds from breaking. At the time of writing nobody has finished this game. My save is broken to the point where there are two levels I can't even finish due to scripting errors. If you have to check it out, PC seems to be where the support and community is. Out on Playstation consoles, it's toast."
Shame, I love modern boomer shooters. I've been burned a few times by poor ports of popular pc focused games to consoles, pathologic 2 for example is unplayable on ps4, a lot of times these ports are made by third party companies and receive poor support
Charles Cecil has revealed that the the team at Revolution need a couple more months to finish work on the project.
The legendary perk system in Fallout 76 requires a bit of a rework and some fans think they have the perfect way to change up these perks.
Yep ps+ is required for online miltiplayer
it´s not just pay for MP, it´s pay for PS+ which is kinda different. i would gladly pay for PS+ if that means free goodies
I already pay for PS+ so I don't really mind and I also don't play too much multiplayer so it's not that big of a deal for me at least :)
"One Giant Leap Backwards".....
So does that mean Microsoft has been backwards for the last 7 years cause they charged for online.
I said it before, what Sony has shown & done for the gamer is unprecedented. What they are asking is a very VERY small price to pay for the services they are offering.
No DRM, yes to used games, all the cloud & Gaikai stuff, a system for the gamer. Yes it is a very small price to pay & i will gladly take it.
*edit* I still believe F2P games will stay free to play & that the charge is for enhanced services like the Gaikai.
I don't think they needed to paywall multiplayer, they already had a compelling service, no need to do this. Disappointed that they did this, but there is debate on what they meant, if it's like special online features or all online is blocked.
