Review: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR | VRFocus

No matter how many times you’ve experienced Skyrim, you’ve never felt it like this.

The gaming gods have blessed us,
This generation might not got to see the the arcades of the 80's but you have it so good right now.

40yr old gamer here and I can say without a doubt that this is the best time in gaming history.

Day one.

chris2352741d ago (Edited 2741d ago )

gamer for 35+ years here and i can safely say that gaming is floating dead in the water. this gen has been one rehash fest so far with dull and disappointing aaa titles.

funny how opinions can differ, eh? ;-)

fiveby92741d ago

I also have been playing games for 35+ years. Back in the days when the arcade was social media/networking. I'd say it has been a year of greatness and huge disappointment at the same time.Lots of rehash? yep so true. But I'd also say some of that rehash is also refinement. For example, I played (and continue to play) Larian Studio's Divinity Original Sin 2. Is that a rehash of the ole isometric rpg? To a degree yes but it is also a refinement. It's a brilliant game and for the money offers tons of replayability and has no microtransactions. I think the saddest state of affairs is what is going on right now with EA's SW BF2 and their randomized MT loot based progression system. This and other such systems is what I will consider the worst part of this year..

I don't own PSVR (yet) but boy SKYRIM in VR sure looks fun.

JackBNimble2741d ago

47 year old gamer here, I too have been playing since the early days and I would say it's a great time to be a gamer.
Obviously games can be hit or miss but if you are to spoiled to appreciate how gaming has evolved over the last 40 years, then maybe you need a new hobby.

AdonisIsBeast2741d ago

Cool story bro

Eh, wink face

Hardiman2741d ago

I've been gaming for 30 years and while this year has had it's share of troubling trends with services, MT's/loot boxes and such there have also been some amazing games! In particular some great single player games from Sony and Nintendo. I'm having the time of my life and while there are certain companies or publishers who seem to want to change the landscape there are others who are committed to delivering amazing experiences and at the same time reminding me why I started gaming in the first place!

Gaming goes in cycles. The 80's were great, nothing like being a kid in those arcade days, experiencing the magic then. Listening to Kraftwerk and watching Tron in the theatre. The 90's were amazing during the SNES/Genesis days, The PS1 launch, the Dreamcast Launch, the 3DFX 3d acceleration early days with Glide Api, the original Xbox Playing on Xbox Live with Mech Assualt, The Early days of the Xbox 360, and now PSVR. VR mostly reminds me of the days I was buying every Glide enabled game for the 3dFX, constantly scouring magazines and the web seeing what game was coming out or being patched for it. I am now doing the same with VR lol.

Hardiman2741d ago (Edited 2741d ago )

The 90's were an exciting time for games. The jump from the SNES to the 64 and PSX was mind blowing! I'll never forget playing Mario 64 for the first time. Putting hours into Turok. Discovering Resident Evil or Abe's Odysee. Infiltrating the Shadow Moses for the first time. Finally getting The Ocarina of Time or seeing how great RE Code Veronica looked on the Dreamcast! I miss the mags from back then too like Gamer Republic, Gamefan, EGM(back then they were really good and I loved the 300 page ones!) and the Dreamcast mags!

Neil Druckmann Reveals He’s Working on an Unannounced Game at Naughty Dog

Neil Druckmann, the creative director of The Last of Us, is working on a new, unannounced game at Naughty Dog.

RaidenBlack18h ago

I know they've expertise in third person games.
But given the lack there of in PS catalog, I'd want the other project to be a narrative first person ND game.
Look, there are lots of 3rd person Sony games in variety of flavors. And ND is already doing intergalactic. And since they're pretty expert at gameplay and tech wise in whatever they do, they can easily venture a new genre and ship a first person game/shooter.

VenomUK18h ago

Hopefully the lead character is a boss babe who will challenge the patriarchy.

RaidenBlack16h ago

So, judging from the dislikes, hardcore Sony fans here don't like first person games, anymore?

arkard15h ago

Let naughty dog do what they are great at, 3rd person games

crazyCoconuts10h ago

I don't really have a big opinion on first vs third person perspective. That's one of the least important things to me when rating how much I like a game

Flewid6387h ago

Sounds horrible. The downvotes are right on this one.

badz1496h ago

I actually hate 1st person. very hard to associate with a character you only see their hands most of the time.

OtterX18h ago

funny thing is with failures like Concord and soon to be Marathon, Factions could have been Sony's guaranteed huge success with a shooter! I don't ever play online shooters anymore, but I would have come out of shooter retirement for a new Factions game.

...Way of the Warrior 2: Electric Boogaloo

Amplitude17h ago

It’d be cool if they bought the Parappa licence and made Parappa 3 that’d be the real good timeline

Lightning771d 5h ago

Wait I thought they cancelled a game? Or did they announce another project?

https://wccftech.com/naught...

pwnmaster30001d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

I’m assuming it’s the unannounced game in the title you posted.

“Naughty Dog Reportedly Canceled a Single Player Game This Year, But Another Unannounced Game Is Still in the Works“

Lightning7715h ago

OK I gotcha. That makes sense.

jznrpg12h ago

Devs cancel games all the time early stages if it doesn’t turn out the way they envisioned it. We just don’t hear about every one of them.

badz1496h ago

so a 2028 release at the soonest

Lightning776h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Some speculate it could be Uncharted spin off. It's already 3 years in production so yeah 2028 maybe 2027 at the absolute earliest but most likely 28 release.

Also to add. kojimas next game that's not OD is said to be 5 to 6 years out for PS. That metal gear inspired game. These games are just too far off it seems.

pwnmaster30001d 1h ago

This dude is busy.
So who is running intergalactic?

Knushwood Butt23h ago

'We have several directors on Intergalactic. I work with two game directors: Matthew Gallant and Kurt Margenau, [and] I have a co-writer in Clair Carré.'

pwnmaster300010h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Okay you got me, I skimmed the article and video .
Thanks lol

vTuro2418h ago

Cuckmann is going to be Naughty Dog's downfall.

itBourne8h ago

Going to be? The damage is already done lol.

Flewid6387h ago

Sunlight is good for you, I promise. lol

Flewid6387h ago

yall say that about ever developer and then they end up becoming more successful lol

mkis0075h ago

Downfall? If anything he is a huge reason they are on the map! A few apes don't like the material hasn't stopped his games from being massive hits.

DarXyde5h ago

I have grievances with Druckmann, but he does deserve some benefit of the doubt. He's been in crucial roles at the company through all of their successes.

Maybe wait and see?

A switch 2 update might be a nice way to celebrate it for people who brought the switch 1 version

4Scarrs_Gaming18h ago

This is exactly what I was thinking too.

gigoran87h ago(Edited 7h ago)

It will be for a price. unfortunately not like the PS5 where a majority of them were free.

anast20h ago

Cool, can we get a controller sensitivity option for the PS5? Geralt going full sprint when I barely touch the controller is keeping me from playing this game a 3rd time.
