Fast forward the video. The first 25 minutes are loading screens.

CP_Company1882d ago

They say, dont like it, buy ssd, but man, i am siting already with nvme2 ssd and loading times are beyond bad.

Hungryalpaca1882d ago

It loads constantly. Change your loadout? Loadscreen. Select mission? Load screen. Need a new mission? Load screen. Crafting? Loadscreen.

CP_Company1882d ago

Game got massive downgrade, not the lvl crackdown but still.

starchild1882d ago

And still looks better than the vast majority of games out there.

Hungryalpaca1882d ago (Edited 1882d ago )

Too bad it doesn’t play very well and the environments are extremely repetitive and lacking. Every environment is overgrown jungle or abandoned tomb with caves. That’s it. The game is so boring.

Yes I have it. I got it though access and I’ve hit a point in the campaign and just don’t care to continue. Hit level 16 and realized I’ve been doing the same thing over and over the entire time.

Hydrazinezz1882d ago

Yeah this game is utter shit. I cant believe the fan boys sticking up for this Gaas cancer bullshit.

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE117d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine117d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies117d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--117d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob117d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven460d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad460d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt461d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil459d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx460d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades460d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602460d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

Aloymetal985d ago (Edited 985d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb985d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle985d ago (Edited 985d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff2183985d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal985d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds985d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon985d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley985d ago (Edited 985d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat2020985d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot41985d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai985d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX985d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley983d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot41985d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast985d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu985d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing985d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast984d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing984d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC985d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
