You should try being like me, sitting at home with covid, that way you could post all day and I can stay entertained!

I'm still shaken by that episode honestly.I think I'm a Wiimote because I'm fucking shook
I suspected that Howard wouldn't make it out but the way this episode just absolutely ruined him before unceremoniously offing him was just too brutal. Guy did not deserve that at all. Fuuuuuuck.
Now we've got a 6 week wait...
Godspeed, man!Okay so the interview ended up being today lol I'm currently waiting to go in. Wish me luck!
Live A Live hype continues
Omg, 4 new HxH chapters!?
Hope people didn’t stack for the next decade!

Rewatching the VGDunkey Mario reviews and it always makes me emotional and wanting to replay those games
Please, Nintendo, release Odyssey 2. I'd even trade BOTW 2 for it
Can confirm that people don’t care anymore. I’ve been as careful as ever (wearing masks, keeping my distance, disinfecting stuff, etc.) and yet still caught something recently (but apparently not covid? Already did a home test and it came out negative). People are out and about like nothing is going on. It’s fucking annoying, but what can you do. People gonna people.Feels like everyone is getting COVID now. Probably because most people are treating it like it's over.
Sigh.

It's certainly not worth buying a PS5 for, and the whole economy of the game is poorly balanced, but it's a great driving game regardless. Probably the best I've played since Motorsport 7... so it's a decent appetizer to the main course which will be Motorsport 8.Gran Turismo seems like a mess (I like driving games a lot)
Yakuza still releases first on PS4 at least in Japan/Asia where it still releases first, while this may change in the future (I expect at least PC day 1 for Asia) it's still too early to decide it especially if Sony money gets involved like we have seen recently with almost all the publishers Sony has good relationships with and Sony getting back Yakuza is something that wouldn't surprise me at all.Thanks for the reminder to turn off auto renew for PS Plus.
Man, I’m usually pretty platform agnostic and I usually buy every console, but I don’t have a PS5 yet and almost every choice Sony is making these days makes me just not want one at all. Between Jim Ryan peeing his pants about saying literally anything to defend reproductive rights, their absolute greed regarding getting subscription money from people by hook or by crook (this shit definitely leans “crook”) and just every business decision they’ve been making lately (paid next gen upgrades, the GT7 micro transaction debacle, PS1 games being PAL versions????) it’s frankly pretty embarrassing.
Look, I won’t mince words: On the whole, Sony’s first party/exclusive output doesn’t do anything for me. They shut down Japan Studio. Gran Turismo seems like a mess (I like driving games a lot). And most importantly: Yakuza games are no longer exclusive to Playstation, being simultaneously released on Xbox. Like A Dragon’s next gen version being exclusive to Series X at launch guaranteed I bought a Series X at launch.
Originally my stance was “I’ll get a PS5 eventually, maybe when PSVR2 is out.” Now it’s “I think I’m okay just not having one.”
I don’t say all of this to say Sony is doomed or whatever. Clearly they’re doing just fine. And frankly I don’t care to console war or anything. I’m frankly not the biggest fan of Xbox’s first party output either (I thought Halo Infinite was really boring. I do really love Forza Motorsport though)
But man: I have active disinterest in buying the Sony video game box or engaging with the PlayStation brand in literally any way. Their values and direction just do not line up at all with what I want out of games as a medium.
"Leave duck to heaven"Thanks everyone! I think I did good, now I'll wait for the results, the other candidates are good too so it's up to the universe, but I did my part \o/
Imagine if people decided that hardly anyone has ever actually died in a car wreck and that the statistics were all doctored by deep state actors, therefore BAC driving limits and seatbelt mandates are tyrannical oppression pushed on us by a controlling government and then, in a righteous act of defiant, patriotic liberty, all decided to rip off their seatbelts, shamed people who still wore seatbelts until they also stopped wearing them, and then proceeded to drive everywhere while drunk because of their god-given rights and freedoms.Can confirm that people don’t care anymore.

Lost Judgment (not technically Yakuza but it might as well be) was a worldwide simultaneous release, on both PlayStation and Xbox platforms. They’ve said, on record, they’re doing worldwide simultaneous release going forward. Sony could still put some money forward to regain the Yakuza release exclusivity, sure, but Microsoft seems to really like having that series around, so it’d be a bidding war if it were to come to that.Yakuza still releases first on PS4 at least in Japan/Asia where it still releases first, while this may change in the future (I expect at least PC day 1 for Asia) it's still too early to decide it especially if Sony money gets involved like we have seen recently with almost all the publishers Sony has good relationships with and Sony getting back Yakuza is something that wouldn't surprise me at all.
alright motherfuckers get ready to groove

Very well said (to your entire post not just the clipped) - I fully align + agree. It's sad to see but I'm at peace with it now.Originally my stance was “I’ll get a PS5 eventually, maybe when PSVR2 is out.” Now it’s “I think I’m okay just not having one.”
I agree with a lot of your points. The last GT I liked was 4, God of War has lost its core gameplay, which was the only reason I enjoyed those games in the first place, and without Japan Studio their overall lineup has lost a ton of its charm.Thanks for the reminder to turn off auto renew for PS Plus.

The game was announced in August 2021 to somewhat mixed reception. If they started shortly after that reveal that would give them more than a year to rework it. That said, I don’t think it’s likely either.Nah, card system isn’t a 6 month delay 2 months before release it’s a 1-2 year overhaul if they’re taking it out and they won’t, it’s their vision for the game. Perhaps add some mechanics for mitigating RNG but it won’t be majorly changed. Could just mean they tweaked the artstyle and want to make a bigger impact with the next trailer because they’ve been radio silent
Tbh none of the platform holders are really doing well for me right now, but I think Sony is arguably the worst.Thanks for the reminder to turn off auto renew for PS Plus.

Also people misread the article, the actual wording says revamped TRAILER, not gameplay, the article writer just assumes gameplay. It could just be they’re doing a better cut trailer that better explains thingsThe game was announced in August 2021 to somewhat mixed reception.
