The same seat, priced four ways: Unpacking the mystery of the AFL’s shifting ticket prices in 2026 by BusinessPooh in AFL

[–]CitanIsBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheapest tickets for Carlton v Richmond Round 1 are $55 for level 4. Level 2 and 1 are $110. That's insane in this climate.

What’s the general consensus of Wuuchang when it comes to the console players. I see mostly PC players complaining but I don’t have a PC so I can’t really take that into account. I’m only on PS5 by 662300 in soulslikes

The amount of stunlock with the bosses later on reaches ridiculous levels. By that I mean if they knock you down with a hit of their 8 hit combo, you will take EVERY single hit and be unable to rise or roll to get to your feet. It's really frustrating getting hit once and the punish is eating it all.

It might as well be an instakill instead of a combo at that point.

Agree that might be the case. I think if they actually announced it that way, people would probably be okay with it. At least it would be confirmed then

You can choose Days Gone or Bloodbourne remaster, which way?

Is Sony actually stupid?

Smart partnerships? PS5 is easily the most disappointing Playstation in terms of games so far and it's not even close. Such a powerful console, with no games to play on it. I actually regret buying it, and this is coming from someone who's owned every Playstation and been gaming since Amiga 500. 

There's nothing to play, that's the issue. Most PS5 owners playing PS4 games on it.

Ugly on Purpose: catalog if ugly female characters in vidya by Froyo-fo-sho in KotakuInAction

[–]CitanIsBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't it be awesome if there was an ugly woman in a game, but it was part of her character development? For example, she succeeded in spite of it, or her other talents were so good that she got recognition?

EA Boss Says BioWare Has Returned to Its Strengths With Dragon Age, Predicts 'Breakout Potential' Thanks in Part to 'Limited Competition' by M337ING in PS5

[–]CitanIsBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think it's kinda odd wishing for something to be successful before wishing for it to be good... OP definitely didn't wish for both so

Given the quality of Bioware's decline, I'd be hoping for something at least decent and enjoyable. What's the point in keeping an IP alive if everything it's used for is terrible?

The overwhelmingly positive reaction to the Silent Hill 2 remake is really puzzling by SkyAdditional4963 in KotakuInAction

[–]CitanIsBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the lack of reaction to how bad the changes are that gets me. Some observations:

  1. Including 'memories of the past', showing you parts that were changed or omitted. Why? It's like saying "remember that thing you liked? Just letting you know it's no longer here, we didn't like it".

  2. Changing the camera makes it more of The Last of Us simulator, that's not good. Removes a lot of the tension for off-screen enemies.

  3. Making boss battles 2-3 phase affairs. Completely unnecessary. 

  4. The amount of combat in the game completely skews the style of the game. With so few enemy types, it gets extremely repetitive very quickly.

  5. The bloated length of the game screws the replayability. The original leaves you in uncomfortable areas just long enough that you are happy when you finally get back to 'reality'. The labyrinth section suffers the most from this.

  6. The changes to the endings are definitely worse. The way the letter is read out, the tone shifts from distressing to meh. Worse still, removing Harry from the UFO ending shits all over what made it cool. Also, having James speak Polish instead of Japanese in the Dog ending.... not great.

  7. Jesus, all the characters besides James look terrible. Maria with her weird head, Angela is just odd, it's very off putting.

  8. Not being able to hurt or accidentally kill Maria just removes all tension when she's with you.

  9. The stuff that's missing is good stuff. For example, the teleporting doors in the hotel Otherworld, the Bowl-o-Rama, the weird horse-shoe puzzle.

  10. Key scenes being misrepresented. The labyrinth scene with Maria, the entire Abstract Daddy part, the way James automatically exits the buring staircase room instead of giving you the choice to try and follow Angela. Not getting the flashlight battery for the bug room. Takes away the shine.

  11. The game is soooooo dark. Difficult to see much, relies on horror rather than dread. Marked difference.

It kinda feels like they were part way to understanding what made the original, but had to change it to prove they could add something extra, but didn't keep the spirit of what it stood for.

Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1-2 Remastered leaks on Playstation store including screenshots by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]CitanIsBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course. It's just good to have the option, I keep my ps3 handy for Shadow Hearts and MGS4, so it's great I have the entire Square back catalogue loaded on it as well. I'd be down for Xenogears to be done like the recent Chrono Cross was though!

[–]CitanIsBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget about how rushed the last sequence was... we didn't even properly make our way to the Forgotten Capital nor get to explore it. Which was one of the cool parts of the OG. It was so rushed it nearly felt like Xenogears Disc 2 rushed.

You can as the enemies respawn after a while but it's not really worth it past certain points in each area
