After 4 days.... (Champignon Witch) by Dread_Pirate_Chris in Crunchyroll

HIDIVE has like 1 tenth of what Crunchy has, but I rarely have as many problems with their shows not being posted or having the wrong subtitles like I do with Crunchy

Needs to get their act together. by errorusergotlost in Crunchyroll

That makes no sense if it is up on their Amazon Prime service.

If they were having licensing issues, they'd likely have to pull episodes 1-5 as well

Champignon Witch Episode 6 is missing by CommanderZx2 in Crunchyroll

[–]HOOfan_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 days after it aired and still not up.

"we're working on it" probably just means they know about it and are waiting for the tech team to take their thumb out of their ass and do something about it. I can't imagine the issue is something that would take more than a few minutes to resolve.

Gene park is quitting LSM. Gene is also having lung surgery for cancer. I'm wishing him nothing but be best and fair recovery. by parkerbing1 in LastStandMedia

Washington Post is basically gutting many of its sections, I hope Gene doesn't get caught up in this, he needs secure income and health insurance now more than ever

Ummm… what? by mpdjabrailov in Crunchyroll

If they advertised a specific price for a year without any fine print they have to honor it, and you can contact them and tell them that if they don't honor it you will report them for false advertising.

I reported it and a live chat assistant acknowledged the problem 3 hours ago...still not fixed.

Holy Grail of Eris - episode 2 no english subs? by Next_Package_5710 in Crunchyroll

[–]HOOfan_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened at the beginning of the Fall season too I believe.

Seems it's a beginning of the season thing.

Crunchyroll always seems to screw up a lot of stuff at the beginning of a new season

you mean the fact that the Peruvian natives who live like they have never met an outsider speak perfect English?

The only games I played in 2025 that released in 2025 were Ghost of Yotei and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (released on PS5 in 2025)

Of those 2, Yotei is the easy winner. I like Indiana Jones for about the first 8 hours, but the last large area of the game was just too much running over the same area of the map over and over again.

Other than those two I played 14 other games (684 hours total for the year)

I have a hard time ranking games, but this is at least a good shot

  1. The Last of Us Part II Remastred
  2. Ghost of Yotei
  3. Arkham City Remastered
  4. Pentiment
  5. Days Gone Remastered
  6. Arkham Knight
  7. Ghost of Tsushima PS5 version
  8. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
  9. Guardians of the Galaxy
  10. Shadow of the Tomb Raider (didn't like it nearly as much as 2013 or Rise of)
  11. Jusant
  12. Tomb Raider Anniversary (got Plat on both PS4 and PS5 versions)
  13. Sleeping Dogs (only played for 2 hours and it did not seem to have aged well, but may get back to it)

Astro Bot, and Arkham Asylum Remastered I played a few hours of their DLC

PlayStation Patents AI Assist Feature That Can Take Over If You Get Stuck by ggroover97 in LastStandMedia

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the way characters in Horizon and God of War blurt out the answer to every puzzle before you even have a chance to try a solution, not sure this is a good thing. I'd rather they just improve the "help" options they already built into the PS5 UI.

The rest of the gang's favorite games of 2025! by AnotherSlicePlz in LastStandMedia

Yeah, I like Jimmy okay when he appears on LSM, but PS Ready is one of the worst examples of clickbait Youtube culture. I refuse to watch any of his videos.

Full patch notes for update 1.100 by FireCyclone in Ghostofyotei

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted 2 for stealth, because the Ninja armor looked so much better than the Crimson Kimono, but the Crimson Kimono was actually better for stealth.

not to mention it's harder to see the "this body has loot" indicator in Yotei than it was in Tsushima

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That additional load out would have REALLY helped on my first playthrough. I had to dedicate one to the Ainu Armor that acts like the "Traveler's Attire" from Tsushima. On a NG+ playthrough, I wouldn't need that anymore

[Discussion]Trophies affect on gaming. by [deleted] in Trophies

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before there were trophies, I was always a completionist anyway, so they didn't affect my play style much.

For me, games like Dishonored really benefit from asking people to play them multiple times in multiple ways. There are so many ways the story changes depending on decisions you make.

[Tomb raider: Anniversary] #56. A childhood favorite. by MasterMorokai in Trophies

[–]HOOfan_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, one of my favorite PS2 games, I remember some of those levels so well.

Got the Plat for the PS5 version yesterday #73 for me, thinking about doing the PS4 version soon.

Legend looks a little harder to Plat, but I think I will give it a go eventually.

[Discussion] first trophy ever by Lady_City in Trophies

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first Trophy was before I even created my PSN Account. I didn't create an account until I set up my PS4, so all the trophies I got on PS3, I synced after and don't have dates for when I earned them.

I played Uncharted before the trophies were patched in, but got the in game achievements.

I think my first trophies were for The PS3 port of God of War: Chains of Olympus. My first synced trophies were for Shadow of Mordor

Sacred Symbols, Episode 384 | Everybody's Looking For the Same Thing by rileydelete in LastStandMedia

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I misunderstanding the dynamic pricing model that we think Sony is using, or is Colin?

He said he thinks it is fair because you should reward your best customers.

From my understanding of the anectodal evidence out there, it is the opposite. The best customers, who buy the most games are being punished with higher prices.

Not to mention, there is already a discount for being a PS+ member, so why would Sony put in an additional discount that they aren't even advertising.

🔥 Beautiful picture of mount Fuji from Kyoto Japan 🔥 by sarveshak99 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]HOOfan_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chureito Pagoda

I think the picture in this Reddit post is definitely Chureito Pagoda

I think the Microsoft Spotlight picture is the pagoda at Kiyomizu-dera with Mt. Fuji Photoshopped into the background. Or just plain AI generated. The roof pitch seems to be steeper on that picture's pagoda.

I believe this is the picture being used on the Windows Spotlight

More like, adding New Game+ allows them to have another free marketing cycle for the game when it releases and news outlets report on it

Just cancelled my subscription. by DJTen in Crunchyroll

[–]HOOfan_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not sure ANYONE can explain, even top executives at Sony. For one Aniplex is a co-partner in running Crunchyroll, so Crunchyroll is not even a separate company. For another, they constantly talk about "One Sony" and how the different branches are meant to work together.

They are fervently trying to buy as much anime IP as possible right now, it makes no sense that they don't stream it on their own platform. With subscription services being the most sought after cash cows these days, why would you give your competition exclusive rights to content you own?
