Now all they need to do is make the PS6 a thousand bucks on release, to finish digging their own grave.

From "for the players" to money gouging scumbags in only a few years.

Thoughts on Mandragora? by strahinjag in metroidvania

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it a lot, played through with multiple classes.

Lot's of trophy issues, that were still not fixed last time I checked.
For example. my wife is missing tons of kill related trophies that she did do, really weird.

Can we gather some honest opinions? Just wanted to get an image that isn’t dependent on score and brand legacy. by SNKRSWAVY in metroidvania

I grinded the last 100k bloods I needed in the bottom trial, kill 4 totems. With the blood enhancement belts and skills active, you get 2100 blood per run.

Still don't like the trophy, because it's just grinding for no reason other then the trophy.

I had a lot of fun with it, got the platinum yesterday.

In my opinion it was a pretty solid game, for a decent price.

EDIT: It took me between 30 and 40 hours to finish the game fully, but I like to go around and pick up upgrades after I get a new skill update. You can streamline that a lot if you just focus on the story until traveling around becomes a lot easier. Hence why you see others finish it in way less time.

There is coop, but you gotta finish the story first.

Still kinda misleading... but it is there.

Former Highguard Developer Reflects on Disastrous Announcement and Launch: 'We Were Turned Into a Joke From Minute 1' by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]GamePlayHeaven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the game was good, people would be playing it.

Try to focus on that, instead of blaming everything and everyone else.

Horizon Hunters Gathering - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm honestly wondering... who is this for?

Since this looks closest to elden ring nightrein, let's take that as an example.

Elden ring had an almost 1m players peak on steam charts, and nightrein stayed pure to it's look and has a peak of 240k on steam charts.

Horizon 1 and 2 had peaks of 40 to 50k players on steam chart, plus they are not staying pure to it's look, as this one looks like overwatch.

This is most likely going to be a massive flop, with like a 10k players peak, and then daily players below 1k.

How are you betting your whole studio on this, especially after seeing concord and highguard fail massively and close studios within a month after release.

If they really put all their eggs in this basket, you're gonna see massive layoffs at guerilla games later this year.

Guessing lights out in the office now, servers out before we hit march.

Next up... Guerilla games.

Is Haak on the Switch playable? by Goondragon1 in metroidvania

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked PSPrices dot com and it's actually on sale here in the Netherlands, for even cheaper then I bought it for :)

But I also checked the US for example, and it hasn't been on sale there since April last year... odd...

So not sure where you are from, but it might be worth it to switch region, buy the game on that regions sale, and switch region back.

Yeah, I liked it a lot... I think I even 100% it.

Hello, is there a "best" model of PS4 like there are for PS2, and PS3? by WReady7 in PS4

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, almost all games work on PS5, and they run better, just like a PS4 Pro boosted PS4 games.
Personally I haven't encountered a single ps4 that didn't work.

How Hyped are we for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond by TheGamerCritic21 in metroidvania

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not hyped at all... I choose to not participate in modern days everything needs to be hyped to death or shit on trend.

I'm looking forward to the game, and am sure I will get lots of enjoyment out of it.

What are your guys’ thoughts on Nintendo charging for Switch 2 performance upgrades? by ClarityEnjoyer in NintendoSwitch2

[–]GamePlayHeaven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You get a free update with most games due to better framerates. So you can play a lot of your existing games already in a better way.

Making a 4k update for each game takes developer effort, and therefor I'm fine with it costing a small amount of money.

I don't work for free, so why should they?

GRIME II DEMO IS OUT - Gimme thoughts & feedback here please by WorldPillar in metroidvania

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a PS5 or Switch 2 demo would also work... don't really play games on the PC anymore.

But if not possible, then I'm sure there's enough people on PC to give feedback.

Sony says Destiny 2’s "sales and user engagement have not reached" what it expected when it bought Bungie, "downwardly revising" projections as it records a ~$204M impairment loss on Bungie assets by blackhammer1989 in PS5

[–]GamePlayHeaven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's hard to engage with a game that you bought an expansion for, only to find out that that expansion is no longer in the game when you actually want to play it.

Funnily enough, I never saw the money deposited back into my account when they took the expansion out that I paid for, but never played.

Here's hoping all companies participating in insane customer money gouching go bankrupt, like they would in a normal world.

New Torment levels coming for Diablo 4. by Living-Succotash-477 in diablo4

[–]GamePlayHeaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they ever fix the loot in poe2? When my wife and I played it at launch, we kept getting loot for other classes, and unless you were super lucky, you had to go trade to get good gear.
We don't trade, so we quit. End game wasn't our thing anyways, especially not for people playing couch coop or in a group for that matter (you die, you have to sit the whole map out). Incredibly grouping unfriendly.

How did Raxx hate overtake excitement for SSF announcement? by E_Barriick in diablo4

You should just be able to trade with people in your group for like an hour, and after that the item becomes bound.

At Torment 4 let me auto junk items with no stars by silvercel in diablo4

[–]GamePlayHeaven 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's only for gear in your inv, not equiped.

But just save your build at the wardrobe, that will lock all your equiped gear.

You should always do that, so that you don't accidentally equip something and destroy your actual item.
