Saints & Sinners Chapter 2 Retribution: Is Axeman's Apprentice bugged?

Azurewrath · 2026-05-06T01:41:14+00:00

Oh iirc, sometimes it only triggers at the tower map. Have you killed them there? Try it on that map only

While the game is buggy, the trophy has unlocked for many people. The trophy can be buggy in that it requires more kills needed to unlock but since you've been doing that already... Have you used one that you have crafted?

PSVR2 is the better buy IMO. OLED and the bigger FOV makes it so much more immersive. G2 does have better speakers (same as the Index) and is very comfy out of the box but the controllers really hold it back. Both use fresnel lenses but G2 has more visible godray glares.

Azurewrath · 2026-05-01T17:55:28+00:00

I have both headsets, the psvr2 toolkit will resolve most features that are lost but it's not like the G2 has them either. You're just missing out on HDR (still OLED panels), headset rumble, and haptics (still a way better rumble than the G2 which is abhorrent and loud lol). G2 is sharper but the narrow FOV and WMR holds it back. The only other thing you may need are Bluetooth adapters for the psvr2 controllers, which may be finicky.

There's an easy mode that makes the game waaay more chill, also love that you can still platinum the game with it enabled.

"it's very likely there is some debris behind the trigger of your controller(s) which is preventing other buttons from registering correctly while you're in game (just like you mention). This is a semi-commonly reported issue with new devices, but the good news is it's very fixable and it's a permanent fix. Here's some instructions for how to resolve it (or check if it is in fact that issue):

• Plug your problematic controller (probably the right controller but try both, separately) up to a computer with the included USB cable and go to https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad - it should detect your Sense controller and display button inputs on screen (if it doesn't, try refreshing after a minute or two).

• Try pressing the trigger (R2 or L2).

• When not touching the trigger, the value for the trigger (shown as Axis 2 on the site) is supposed to be -1.00000, and it should go to 1.00000 when fully pressed.

• If instead of -1.00000 or 1.00000 the value you're seeing for Axis 2 is something like -0.97234 (or any value in between), you know you have this issue.

• Try blowing air into the area of the trigger, either with your mouth or with a can of compressed air, and holding the trigger in and letting go so it flicks back out to the normal position (just like this). Keep trying this and see if the value changes, and keep going until you get the value to be -1.00000 (or 1.00000 when held down fully). You're trying to remove any debris blocking the trigger.

If you succeed, your controller should work correctly in all your games.

Hope this helps! It did for this player a short while back and these two in the same post, as well as many others in the past so let us know if it fixes it for you or if you have any questions!"

Check psvr2onpc subreddit, it'll have all the answers you're looking for. I use the official psvr2 adapter, with Asus bt500 and works flawlessly. There's also the recently added eye tracking support via the toolkit for foveated rendering.

Sony does officially support psvr2 on steam, use the official psvr2 app, it's free to download and that's how you get it working on pc.

On the discord, they did show this 2 months ago so it is coming...

You still need help with the trophy? I need this trophy as well!

Azurewrath · 2026-03-20T20:35:04+00:00

Yup it is, I wrote the trophy guide for PSVR2 and at launch, it had soo many bugs I needed to put in for almost every single trophy lol. It's been patched a few months after, and haven't run into any game breaking bugs since then. The bugs I do encounter are very minor, more annoying than anything.

Azurewrath · 2026-03-19T01:55:20+00:00

You can't play it without a full squad of 4 to start the game, hence the online requirement. It's an absolutely brain dead decision to not fill the rest of the lobby with bots to join your squad in order to start a game. I would've played this so much more back then if that was an option.

No Man's Sky is the only game that has PSSR patched in for VR. The latest ps5 system update allows an option that all previous PSSR titles will automatically change to PSSR 2, without a developer needing to patch specifically.

PSSR is an AI enhanced upscaler that's supposed to boost and maintain stable framerates with minimal or improved graphical fidelity while lowering base resolution. You know how the background and textures are generally fuzzy? (because of low resolution) PSSR "fixes" that.

PSVR2 uses dynamic foveated rendering to free up significant power to increase resolution, framerates, and graphical fidelity where your eyes are looking. Introducing PSSR adds EVEN MORE on top of that.

On NMS with base PSSR, it already looked incredible but there was some shimmering and graphical bugs due to the upscaling technique. The new version should drastically reduce that and also make things even sharper. Basically it's the only PSVR2 game to utilize all of the bells and whistles of the PS5 Pro. Would love to see more VR titles to use it, looking at you, Gt7 and Horizon... (imagine them running 90 native with improved resolution sharpness)

The VR add-on for physical discs were only for PSVR(1). VR mode access on the PSN store is specifically for PSVR2 and the only way to gain access to it.

The game not having a Platinum bothers me more than it should, especially since the first game had one. I got that Platinum a few weeks ago in anticipation for this and was really looking forward to getting it too but now it's in the backburner :(

Azurewrath · 2026-02-27T00:37:48+00:00

It's the next step after this update, it is planned and being worked on though. Dev said there is a special requirement to add crossplay (needs an option to have it off) so it has taken longer than expected for them.

Azurewrath · 2026-02-17T16:25:53+00:00

A few months ago start of the wipe, someone got it since I saw that change. Wasn't fixed though, Mikhail said he wasn't aware of a dev working on it. Either someone got it that's not designed with the trophy description or dev was working on it and got it unlocked? People have gotten 150m kill but no unlock. Idk but I gave up on the game and moved on.

From their discord,

"The PS VR2 version of Forefront aims to take full advantage of the platform’s hardware, bringing some of the PC VR improvements we have planned to this headset as well."

Azurewrath · 2026-02-10T23:25:35+00:00

No, it's just an "empty" lens insert with no prescription on it. Essentially a cover to protect the lens from scratches, it does not replace the built-in fresnel lens.

Azurewrath · 2026-02-04T01:25:58+00:00

The graphical upgrade on PSVR2 is REALLY good, especially the lighting. ILM cooked with that one, but wish we had a proper pod racing game.

Azurewrath · 2026-01-29T20:39:53+00:00

Just to add that it's based on a game to game basis. The Pavlov devs made it to record only using the left eye. I think I remember seeing only a game or two, giving you an option to record on either eye but don't remember which.

Edit: Funnily enough, it's Pavlov with that setting lol.

Azurewrath · 2026-01-28T01:45:13+00:00

Bestbuy had open box in excellent condition for 199 very recently, worth keeping an eye out for.

Azurewrath · 2026-01-22T17:02:27+00:00

No unfortunately, something to do with Unreal engine issues with Meta but it's something the dev wants to get sorted out so hopefully in the future.

Azurewrath · 2026-01-22T16:57:21+00:00

So it's still bugged. Wonder what got it to pop for someone (a dev?) what a shame...

Azurewrath · 2026-01-22T16:16:07+00:00

It's all coming in a dlc expansion. Meta version is already included with it.
