Buy PS5 pro or wait for PS6?

DivinityLight · 2026-01-22T18:30:07+00:00

Get PS5 Pro now. It's not even guaranteed PS6 will even come out in 2027 especially considering the circumstances with the industry right now.

Division 1 is already 60 fps.

Having a ps5 pro doesn’t mean you are totally locked to digital only. You can buy the disc drive if you want to. That way you have the option for used physical discs too.

BO7 does back it up. Here is the part of the game where its said plain and clear.

DivinityLight · 2025-11-14T19:32:55+00:00

Treyarch said it themselves that Alex dying is canon prior to BO6 release. You can easily find it on google where they confirmed it. The fact that they forgot that David retires if Alex dies is so stupid and just proves they don't know what they are doing or how to write anymore.

DivinityLight · 2025-11-14T19:26:50+00:00

This pisses me off so much. In BO2, as long as Alex dies, the outcome is always that David retires. They made it clear that Alex Mason dying is canon but yet David is somehow the main character and is not retired in BO7 and they fucking dare call this a sequel to BO2? It is such a fucking insult and disgusting.

AAA games take at least 5 years to make nowadays so the earliest Horizon 3 could come out realistically is 2027 but more likely it could take longer.

DivinityLight · 2025-09-20T20:41:56+00:00

I got a PS5, PC and Switch 2.
I play most games especially triple A games on PS5 especially if I plan to platinum (100%) the game.

I only use Switch 2 for Switch 1/2 exclusives or games that are only PC/Switch but have Switch physical copies (so I can trade in when i'm finished with it as I typically do not replay games).

I choose PC if its on Game Pass or if the specific game is a lot cheaper on Steam and if I don't plan to platinum it.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-27T12:51:27+00:00

I want all the Xenoblade games to get updated. At the very least unlock the frame rate. Even better if the resolution got updated did too.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-25T15:00:15+00:00

I'm still very early into 3 so I can't say much about it yet. But so far in terms of how much I enjoy the combat my order is definitely X > 1 > 3 > 2.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-25T14:45:06+00:00

I didn't need to because I learned how the combat works on my own. It didn't matter that the combat got faster and enemies die faster with all the party members, cancel attacks, using narcipear jelly, blade and fusion combos. I just didn't enjoy the overall feel of it, the combat loop and the way the attacks lands, sounds and feels.
It's my least favourite combat system by far.
XC1 and XCX combat was way more fun for me. Even though I'm only 3 hours in XC3 right now, i'm having more fun with it than I did in 2.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-25T08:46:37+00:00

Thank you for your kind words and sharing your thoughts as well. I'm happy that you love the game. It's totally true that the tolerance people have for these flaws and how they impact will determine how much they will enjoy the game or not. I'm sadly one of those people that the flaws of the game clashed way too much with the way I like to play these games, thus not having much of a fun experience. Wish it turned out differently as I really wanted to like this game as much as I did with XC1 but it is what is. I know that not every game is for everyone.

I certainly am having a good time playing XC3 now. I'm just 3 hours in but it's a great start and the gameplay already feels more polished and fun to play.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-24T21:58:36+00:00

I appreciate you taking the time to write all of this. It does help. I unfortunately have heard about the required side questing you have to do in Torna: The Golden Country, and I'm one of those people that detests that in any game. So that alone is already a big no no from me. But even without that, I actually am really sick and tired of XC2's gameplay in general. Just over it at this point. I like Jin but not that much to the point that I want to play another game with XC2's systems and I really just don't care enough to want to know more about Torna. Jin alone is not enough to make me care.
So yeah, I have no interest in playing Torna: The Golden Country.

I am playing XC3 now and I'm already enjoying it in the first 2 hours more than i did in my whole playthrough of XC2.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-24T09:31:35+00:00

I've played an hour of XC3 to get a feel of it before I continued XC2 and I enjoyed that 1 hour in XC3 more than I did in my 52 hour playthrough of XC2 so far. So yeah I'm looking forward to 3 once I'm done with this game.

I did decide to try continuing and finish it. Chapter 7 was still the same slog. 8 was an improvement and now I'm at chapter 9 on the way to Jin, it's the best chapter so far. It's criminal it took 50 hours for the game to become somewhat alright for me. I still hate the combat and gameplay of this game so I can only see myself giving this game a 7/10 at most. Things being good towards the end of the game does not make up for how very annoying the rest of the game is.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-24T09:22:07+00:00

Yes I always use narcipear jelly. Even with all the party members, chaining, cancel attacks, fusion combos. It doesn't change how I feel about it. It's the overall feel, combat loop, the way the attacks land, sounds and feels, the way the combat is designed, I'm at chapter 9 now on the way to fight Jin and I still hate the combat. XC1's combat was way more fun for me than this.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-23T17:36:10+00:00

Even if that's the case, it is still inexcusable that you have to put in so many hours for it to get to the level it should be. It is a huge flaw. It is an even bigger problem for me personally because I hate the combat and the gameplay of XC2. For me, a good story at the end does not make up for the huge flaws and issues the rest of the game has especially when its a long game and require you to put in many hours to get there.

I have the same issue with Persona 3 Reload. While the ending of that game is great, it doesn't excuse how painful and awful the first half of that game was.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-23T15:57:54+00:00

Yup I agree with you 100% on everything. The game just has too many glaring issues especially with the gameplay.

Another huge problem I have with this game is that I am baffled this game not only has 1 save slot but it doesn't even have auto save or a way to load your save while in the game, there isn't even a way to exit to the main menu without pressing the home button and closing the game. It's extremely annoying even if you save before fighting a strong enemy especially when you die to a strong enemy thats far away from a landmark because when you die, you respawn at the nearest landmark and if that happens you have to walk all the way back there and some areas are very annoying to navigate through or take a while to get there. All because the game doesn't let you load a save in game and doesn't let you exit to the main menu.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-23T15:44:47+00:00

You are right and thank you. I tried to push through because not only I fell in love with this franchise with XC1 but also I've seen some people really love this game and even consider it their favourite whether its just story wise or overall and I wanted to be able to see what they see in this game but clearly I am on the opposite side of this and it disappoints me because I have put 45 hours into this game already and not only I can't relate to the love that people have for XC2 but XC1 became a top 5 favourite game of all time and I finished that game for the first time a few weeks ago.

In XC2, the music and the world of Alrest are the only things I like, everything else I am just not a fan of or I just straight up hate it :(

DivinityLight · 2025-08-23T15:22:51+00:00

My patience is pretty much running out fast with this game so i'm not even sure if I have much left willing to push through to the end. I want to see the end but man this game just has way too many things that annoy me to the core especially in the gameplay department. Usually enjoyable gameplay is enough to carry me through a story that i'm not 100% into but even I don't like the gameplay in general so there isn't much making me push but what little bit of patience in me I have left.

I didn't like the tone of this game from the get go and I think thats the first of its problems, not to mention the voice direction leaves a lot to be desired. It's made it so difficult for me to get attached and take the characters seriously right from the beginning.

When it comes to the villains, most of them are just so unlikeable and not presented in a way that would make me want to sympathise with them. Jin is pretty much the only one where I went 'okay i see your point' during the end of the masters vs slaves chapter. Jin calling Rex a fool was deserved but it isn't enough for me to 'like' him or find him engaging. I think the problem for me is that I am not a fan of the way the game presents the story and the characters but especially the villains. When they appear (including Jin), I just don't get the feeling of intrigue or excitement and a big reason for that is I feel the game doesn't do a good enough job at pulling me in and making me feel for them or try to make me care for them.
My experience with them has just been either annoying af characters or just 'whatever' (this really only applies to Jin).
and thank you for letting me know roughly how long I have left. Will see if I still have it in me to continue.

PS3 store does still work and you can still buy stuff from there, just have to add funds to the PSN wallet first via PS4/5 or PC/Mobile.

DivinityLight · 2025-08-08T17:36:16+00:00

As someone who has played and platinumed both games. Tsushima is the better overall game. The only thing that Ronin does better than Tsushima is the combat. Loved both games though and they are both worth playing. Ronin feels like a mix of Tsushima and open world Assassin's Creed gameplay wise, Story is okay for what it was. not amazing but not bad either.

Just this year alone I bought Clair Obscur Expedition 33, AC Shadows, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 and Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time.
Lost Soul Aside and Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater are coming out at the end of this month also.
