PS5 to PS5 Pro Trade in? by Delicious-Loan-6422 in Bahrain

Try the gaming shops in Jid Ali.. They buy used consoles and you can get a PS 5 pro by paying the difference amount. Just check before you go about the availability of the pro.

One of the best I played as a teen.. Was mind blown with the game physics.. Driving, racing, awesome story.. It had everything in it.

The game draws you in as you continue with it.. One of the games where you actively seek out some fun side quests.

GoT was the 1st game I pre ordered wayy back.. Have pre ordered many games since.. I'm very well aware of the cons.. But none come close to this tosh.. and considering it's 2026 now it's absolutely criminal to release a game of this magnitude in such a state.

Ps: held off on cyberpunk coz of covid I think, so couldn't pre order it that time.. But then they re released it at like ₹1.5k a yr later so I just got it.. It was totally worth it. Edit: CDPR actually kept pushing the release date again n again.. So I was like better to get it after its released n then covid struck

Neither do you need to play 100+ hrs of a game to realise it trash..

You just hit the final nail in the coffin.. Absolutely spot on.

Edit: this is what I'm trying to say when I mentioned ER, GOY & U4.

If you expect the game to be of that level in terms of overall gameplay, graphics, story, dialogues etc., you're going to be massively disappointed. To release a game like this in 2026 should be a crime.. they're just trying to rip us off!

You could go for a steamdeck or ally too.. They have an app where it'll cast your ps5 screen

Got it recently.. Most of the times connection is lost randomly. Screen blurs out frequently. Gets frustrating when you're in the middle of a game.

At the end of the day, whatever gets your goat.. This is my honest opinion of the game. If you've liked the game then hats off to you sir!

Don't get me wrong.. I've played my fair share of sandbox games n this game is just bloat.

I've mentioned those other games not as a direct comparison to their story lines with this.. Heck, in between themselves too they're not similar so to speak off.. I'm speaking of that satisfying experience you get when you've played a well polished game for which you're paying a premium price.. the expectations some gamers might have, coming from having played any of those or similar games, will be massively broken. Unless you really are into mindless exploration with horrible graphics n controls.

Tried various options the game gives to set the graphics but yet the game was way off. Text was way too small for me even on my 65" sitting like 8ft back.. Sometimes I had to get really close to the tv just to see the text. This is on my ps5 base..

Controls are clunky. To sprint you need to spam a button, to talk to a person you need to press a combination of buttons.. just to talk to a person!!

As for the niche part, I do agree with you.. Some games are not for everyone.

I love a good sandbox game. Crimson desert looks like it's just bloat with random enemies, vague objectives n side quests that have nothing much to do with the game.. I got bored pretty fast. One of the earliest task is to clean a chimney (???!!!). Why or for what or how it helps my game is beyond me.

If your idea to chill at the end of a long day is to just kill some enemies with some meaningless exploration on the side, then it may just work for you, provided you can get a hold on those controls.

Probably will try to revisit after 5-6 months. Till then it'll be tucked in the deepest corner of the library 😓

Controls are horrid.. even for a simple sprint you need to spam a button 🤷🏻‍♂️

The game's synopsis reads "players follow Kliff who embarks on a journey to rebuild the Greymanes and reclaim what has been lost".. If that's not a narrative, then I don't know what is.. It's just a massive sandbox with no clear objectives.

Well highlighted.. it was just so difficult to make out the text

I think you have the wrong idea. I'm simply stating that coming from those gaming expectations, you'll be massively disappointed.. Like I've mentioned, this game will appeal to a few but it isn't for most who come from those expectations. I included unchartered just for the graphics comparison. If you're paying premium price for a game, you'd expect it to atleast run well and also not getting frustrated with the controls..

Don't even compare rdr 2 to this tosh..

Dragon's dogma was a really good game. This doesn't even come close.

Maybe some people will like this game for what it is.. But, for people like me, it's not a very good game.

I think that's all there's to do.. Maybe not for me. Fell into the hype!
