@RZ-Atom I don't understand. Did you click on a GUIDE just to tell us 'no' to guides? Try being less concerned with how people play their games or watch movies and tv shows.
@CielloArc "Wilds probably sold 3x more" I'm curious how you can say that without knowing the total sells of AC: Shadows? I swear some of y'all have it out of for this game
When I eventually play I'll most likely be a warrior. Since I'm not a big fan of how the Qunari look in Veilguard (loved them in Inquisition), human it is.
@MrPeanutbutterz Fortunately, we are long past those "early days". Trophy hunting has expanded and ain't necessarily just about "challenge" anymore. I'm 37 and don't really have time or patience to platinum challenging games.
@GreatAuk It doesn't matter which game it is--Forspoken, AC: Shadows, Banishers, Death Loop, Dustborn, South of Midnight, etc--if there's a black protagonist, its the same vitriolic response. "Woke, DEI, forced diversity". "Go woke go broke". Which is the thinly veiled racists way of saying," too many blacks in my games".
So not baseless at all. If it walks like a racist, quacks like a duck, it's a racist duck.
@CrashBandicoat "99% of forced diversity is only in one direction, hence 99% of complaints are in one direction."Citation needed. This whole "forced diversity" is a baseless assumption on your part. What "strawman"? Where's the "nuance" in the comment I replied to? They saw a black protagonists and called it "forced diversity".
@KillerBoy Then why do we only hear about "forced diversity" (or woke and dei) whenever there's a non-white protagonist? It's thinly veiled racism, and apparently Pushsquare is becoming a cesspool of thinly veiled racists.
@BrettAwesome Two black protagonists in two games in 8 years. Well black-guy quota meant then? But THREE within 10 years?!!! Three is too many and is "forced durr and wokey durr", or something.
@Fartingale That's been my experience as well. If I filter out the ones raging about "woke" or "DEI" nonsense, I notice people actually enjoyed Outlaws and that it's a good game, but offered constructive criticism on parts that fell short of "good".
No sympathy. Sony literally states "a PlayStation network account required", so if any consumer reads that, chooses to disregard it, and buys God of War anyway, that's on you! Just make a PSN account, Jesus. You'll live.
I don't really like isometric games very much but I love vampires and gothic settings so I'm pretty sure I'll pick this up. However, I think I'll wait til they iron out the finicky bits.
@thefourfoldroot1 Or maybe they just have a different opinion about what "pretty" is. Or maybe female characters don't always need to be eye-candy. But you know, politics or whatever.
I never actually "finished" FO4 and I've always wanted to Platinum it. Since its pretty cheap on the PS Store and with this upgrade, seems like a perfect time to hop back in.
@NinjaNicky I'm not sure what one has to do with other. I don't like the modern Spider-Man movies but that didn't stop me from enjoying Insomniac's Spidey games. Same with Guardians of the Galaxy. Didn't much care for the movies but enjoyed the game.
@NinjaNicky The "or something" is how much we enjoy a game. The Platinum, or trophy hunting in general, is an integral part of the entire gaming experience for many trophy hunters, like gameplay, story, genre, etc. That's what people who "laugh" at others fail to understand. It's all about being entertained and satisfied with my purchase. That kinda is the point. It brings a slightly psychotic smile to my face whenever I get one. That is far from "useless" and very valuable.
It was definitely on my radar, has been since it first released on PC. Can't wait to play it. I'm not even a fan of top-down games, but I love gothic/vampire settings so much, I'm willing to look past the camera angle.

Re: Mafia: The Old Country Ditches Open World for Linear, Story-Based Gameplay on PS5
Disappointing. I was hoping it would be open-world.

@RZ-Atom I'm sorry people using guides bothers you. I hope you can recover.

Re: Site News: Where's Our Days Gone Remastered PS5 Review?
@NathanKang I guess if we like what you consider "mediocre", we must not be... real? I do believe I'm real, so that's nonsense.
Re: Insomniac Sounds Sick and Tired of People Demanding Wolverine PS5 News
Announces game four years ago and goes silent. Gets annoyed that gamers keep asking about game announced four years ago.
Re: Almost All the UK's Boxed Copies of Assassin's Creed Shadows Sold on PS5 Last Week
@dskatter Is Steam the only place AC: Shadows is played? No. So the Steam numbers don't come close to telling the whole story.
Re: Almost All the UK's Boxed Copies of Assassin's Creed Shadows Sold on PS5 Last Week
@CielloArc "we haven't seen any hint of sales numbers"
My point exactly. So you're just assuming it sold 3x as much.
Re: Almost All the UK's Boxed Copies of Assassin's Creed Shadows Sold on PS5 Last Week

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Romance Misinformation Hits New Low on Social Media
@themightyant Exactly. God forbid that an RPG gives players options to roleplay as.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Romance Misinformation Hits New Low on Social Media
@PuppetMaster When it's comes to the heterosexual romances I never see questions like...
"Does it really make the story and gameplay more interesting or it's just a checklist to satisfy some group?"
Re: Zenless Zone Zero Fans Irate They Can No Longer Peek At Their Waifu's Panties on PS5
@Drago201 But that requires actually going outside and interacting with other human beings, and that's a bit scary for them.
Re: Random: Grizzled Red Dead Redemption Voice Actor Has an OnlyFans Account
@riceNpea In your opinion. Why is it ok to "sell" himself for a video game but not when it comes to sharing his actual life?
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows To Overhaul Series' Sedentary Stealth Mechanics
@NintenGuy Don't look at me, I just woke up!
Re: Larian Studios Made a Staggering Amount of Money on Baldur's Gate 3

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows To Overhaul Series' Sedentary Stealth Mechanics
@McBurn Hm. Strange question. Which one and why? Just out of curiosity.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 556
Just finished Marvel's Avengers main campaign (which was really good) and I'll be jumping into late game content and dlc.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Sequel's Platinum Trophy Won't Make You Want to Jump into a Mako Reactor
@themightyant Agreed! Not only can jrpgs be too grindy (I don't mind some grind), but they often require multiple-multiple playthroughs.
Re: Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Does Away with Forced Stealth in Major Update
Promising stuff. If Ubisoft keeps updating the game and improving combat (and other aspects), I'll certainly buy it.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Reveals Players' Most Popular Class, Race, and Faction

Re: Sony Boss Says It's 'Learned a Lot' from PC Player Pushback
These PC players still throwing tantrums about having to make a PSN account? Jesus Christ! Make one and play games or don't and move on.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Trophies Want You to Do Everything on PS5
@MrPeanutbutterz Not a "cop out", just reality. We're different people with different lives. (I can't believe I have to explain that) Nuff said.

Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Trophies Want You to Do Everything on PS5
@BIG3 Exactly! I'm not sure why it's so difficult for people to understand that hunting trophies IS us enjoying the game.
Re: Random: Internet Trolls Tried to Downgrade Our Silent Hill 2 PS5 Review Score
@Optimus They're definitely entertaining, especially the ones with Stage 4 anti-woke virus.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Hasn't Removed Yasuke, But Dev Focused on Historical Accuracy
@GreatAuk It doesn't matter which game it is--Forspoken, AC: Shadows, Banishers, Death Loop, Dustborn, South of Midnight, etc--if there's a black protagonist, its the same vitriolic response.

Re: Insider Report Adds Context to Assassin's Creed Shadows' Big Delay
@wiiware You heard? When was the last time a "usual" Assassin's Creed game had a nameless protagonist?
Re: Insider Report Adds Context to Assassin's Creed Shadows' Big Delay
@BrettAwesome Two black protagonists in two games in 8 years. Well black-guy quota meant then? But THREE within 10 years?!!! Three is too many and is "forced durr and wokey durr", or something.

Re: God of War Ragnarok PC Mod Removes PSN Login Requirement
PC gamers trying to protect their "data" like its their virginity. And they'll only let that one special Corporation (Steam) have it.
Re: God of War Ragnarok PC Review Bombed Over PSN Requirement
No sympathy. Sony literally states "a PlayStation network account required", so if any consumer reads that, chooses to disregard it, and buys God of War anyway, that's on you! Just make a PSN account, Jesus. You'll live.
Re: Dragon Age: Inquisition Massively Oversold Projections, Remains BioWare's Biggest Game
@AhmadSumadi Ha! Mine was Cassandra, Sera and Dorian. Mostly because I loved their banter.
Re: Dragon Age: Inquisition Massively Oversold Projections, Remains BioWare's Biggest Game
@AhmadSumadi Agreed. I love Inquisition and enjoyed exploring every inch of it. Cassandra was a permanent member in my squad. Irreplaceable.
Re: Ubisoft Investor Calls for Company to Go Private, and CEO Yves Guillemot to Be Replaced
@EchoRange Yep, sure is. Whenever someone mentions "DEI" or "woke", I just roll my eyes.
Re: Ubisoft Investor Calls for Company to Go Private, and CEO Yves Guillemot to Be Replaced
@Vaako007 Why? As if DEI is the problem with Ubisoft.
Re: LEGO Harry Potter Collection Will Be Re-Released for a Third Time on PS5
Wouldn't mind if Lego Marvel's Superheroes gets ported to PS5, would love to play it (and get the platinum) again.

Re: Preview: Star Wars Outlaws on PS5 Has a World of Possibilities, But Is Let Down by a Rough Demo
Man, devs must think that we are just incapable of solving puzzles, because so many games just blurt out the solution seconds after coming upon one.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Is Very 'Mission-Based', Not Unlike Mass Effect
Unfortunate. I was hoping it would go more "open world", but it seems the opposite is true.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Finally Ventures to PS5 Later This Year, Trailer Gives First Look
Unfortunately I have to agree with a lot of the comments. That art-style, though I don't hate it, I'm just not feeling it for Dragon Age.
