I've got to say that the graphics quality and variaty of senarios and enemys have impressed me with resistence 2. But if there was one issue with the original it was too on rails for a modern shooter.
From most of the videos i have seen it looks like it will suffer from the same issues, the forest seens are all in low trenches, which for you in one direction. The iceland level sections i have seen are also mainly corridors.

I can excuse the first game for this as it was a launch title and may have been rushed a little to make sure it made it on time. Lets hope this is not the case with the second game.
WTMG's Aaron Price: "Of course, the music and voice acting is all great, it pretty much always is in Sonic games, and its quality is definitely not lost in the transition to the Nintendo Switch 2. Honestly, this might be the first time since playing the original Sonic games on my 3DS that playing Sonic handheld has felt so this good, this absolutely polished. Fast-paced levels mixed with being able to play in bursts in handheld mode. This might be a decade-old title, but it’s almost like this game had been originally crafted with the Switch 2 in mind, almost in a savant-like manner>"
One of the founding members of the Xbox team has questioned Microsoft’s multiplatform gaming strategy, and said they believe the Xbox hardware business is effectively “dead"
Think that rumor that they'll still make a new console but at a profit at $1000 will be true though. The series consoles will remain their cheap alternative throughout next gen I would say. Keep in mind that game pass and pretty much going 3rd party is their main focus. They want to bring xbox everywhere.
not everyone’s having a great first weekend with the game.
A number of players have complained that the release’s map screen is causing their PS5 consoles to overheat.
I remember my ps4 pro fans going nuts on hzd map screen or when I was entering old yharnam on my base ps4 :p loud times lol
Never had that problem.
Is there any videos, I’m really interested to see what they mean. I didn’t even know there was an over heating warning lol
Clean your fans, that probably the biggest issue. It’s really easy to do with PS5/Pro.
There has been some rumors of Liquid Metal leaking for launch PS5’s but I’m not sure how true that is. I kept my launch PS5 vertical for first 3 years or so with no problems but switched it to horizontal when I gave it to my daughter, just in case.
I am playing DS2 right now but I’m on the Pro and have no issues at all, besides not enough time to play as much as I’d like to.
The only way a game can truly be cinematic is by having certain segments that are out of your control (being on rails).
Yes, there is a fine balance between rails and freedom, but too much of either can really aggravate a gamer, or just make the game plain boring.
I think most scenarios will be played out prematurely.But I dont think the game will be bad anyway
