Can’t wait to hate this game for the first 5 months and not finishing it, just to play it again from the beginning on a random day and falling in love with it.

Can’t wait.

Attempted to play 4 times before it drew me in on the 5th and I’m currently trying to finish before 2

I have been slowly working my way through DS for almost 1 year (11 months to be exact). It took me 10 months and 3 weeks to complete 4 chapters; it just wasn't really hooking me the way people had described. But in the last week, I have really enjoyed it and have completed 7 more chapters, completing chapter 11 last night. Can't wait to finish it and get ready for the 2nd game. It has finally clicked and I am loving it. Glad I stuck with it but it wasn't easy to get there haha.

Aren't review embargoes mandatory/necessary for those games which have been hyped up but are coming out in a not so decent state ? I heard DS2 has got excellent feedbacks from those who plaied it behind closed doors ... so why is that ? Even "Kojima Productions is pretty confident in the quality of its upcoming title", so what is the matter? Possible spoilers ?

Elit3Nick17d ago

This is a bizarre take. Review embargoes are commonplace among most games, and early embargoes is usually a sign of confidence that the game will be good, not the other way around.

peppeaccardo16d ago

Hey Nick ... i always thought that embargoes are a bit of a damage control strategy instead. Means if the reception of the game behind closed doors is not that great the producer does not want to get the sour word out.

TheGamersDojo17d ago

Giving people such a long time with the game before launch, AND a 3 day lift on the embargo before release day bodes REALLY well for this game.

jznrpg13d ago

DS1 was so polished at launch it was a breath of fresh air.

Awesome. But I think I'll go 60 fps and better res personally. But we'll see. About 2 days to go for me

CrashMania1d 8h ago

I didn't play DS1 until last year as it just didn't look like my thing at all, but I'm all in now, surprisingly enjoyed it and this is going to be even better I bet.

It’s a slow start, but when you start seeing other players creation to help you deliver it’s so much fun.

RedDevils19h ago

Is one of those games where you have to go back to it like 3-4 times before it clicks.

gold_drake7h ago

if i have to go bk 3 to 4 times for a game to "click", theres something wrong with it haha

Flewid6387h ago

So in other words, not a good game.

jznrpg19h ago

The games I’ve played 120fps I can’t really tell the difference from 60fps besides the graphics are lesser. I will check it out but most likely I’ll stick with 60fps

Jin_Sakai17h ago(Edited 17h ago)

The jump from 30fps to 60fps is far more noticeable than 60fps to 120fps. I usually stick to 60fps unless it’s a twitch shooter or fighting game.

Shane Kim15h ago

Same. It's pointless above 60 fps in single player games. I rather have better resolution, textures RT and so on.

jznrpg15h ago

I get 120fps for multiplayer pvp shooters but I quit playing those years ago so it’s not necessary for the games I play.

lukasmain15h ago

Also, why get a taste of 120fps for a long game, only to have to go back to 60fps in most others, and then, god forbid, you start to notice the difference? 60fps is the sweet spot, with much better res.

Flewid6387h ago

Same. Even on a 50 series GPU i lock everything at 60.

lukasmain4d ago

It's crazy. This is, by far, my most anticipated game of the entire generation. Even just reading this headline caused my heart to start pumping faster. I am so glad I haven't seen anything of this game since the reveal trailer years ago.

pwnmaster30004d ago

Same I’m going in blind.

Death stranding is such a nightmare for me to beat tho.
It took me 40 hours too beat episode 5 because I wanted to 5 start everything and build all my roads.
Don’t get me wrong I had a blast doing it but damn I was shocked how far I was still in the story lol

anast4d ago

I had fun building roads too.
