QQ. Is there a way to share screen captures on here via an iPad? I have the PS app.

in the app you turn on the option that uploads your clips and screenshot to the app, then you can download them straight from your phone.

Thanks. Then how would I add them to this thread for instance?

Select the "+ Image" in your post and go to your camera roll/pictures directory

EDIT: Beaten like Atsu without a sword on lethal

 

[Markio128]

Ah, I see it now. Cheers guys. Must be an age thing, but then you knew how to do it Topher

 

[Kvally]

I always wondered why gaf does the image upload differently. I am used to the below procedure on most of the XenForo forums I visit.

Anyway, some of the vistas are very nice looking.

I am playing with Japanese dub for authenticity, and after hearing Erica Ishii's voice on Youtube i am even more glad i did. The Japanese voice acting is just amazing and especially Atsu's voiceactress is really good.

Nice to see that people are enjoying the game. I'm still on the fence unfortunately. Can I assume that this game isn't packed to the rafters with D.E.I politics etc?

I'm almost through and encountered no DEI to speak of.
The only weird situation was when i had to brawl some samurai in a sake house.
Other than that the setting is really realistic. They even note her being a woman at times and how it is strange. And there are enough situations that depict her in moments of weakness; no constant "unbeatable girlboss / strong woman" or anything like that.

Some people just seem to take offense when a woman is the main character, paired with Erica Ishii looking 'mid' rather than like Eve from Stellar Blade, and her questionable social media posts, it is apparently enough to brand the game woke trash, while it is actually quite enjoyable.

YouTube algo strikes again..... (relevant because of the Shamisen)

This channel is pretty great too. She's not limited to just the shamisen though.

Not even remotely close. I am probably negative skill.

Ok I understand now in easy you can go like that, yes.

None. Play it in Japanese. No girlboss tropes here. Protagonist is mostly stoic and quiet. She's kind and respectful to those deserving and humbly takes advice from the various senseis you meet. I'm actually enjoying her character so far.

This game looks incredible. Also the fast travel rivals Forbidden West.

Is there no stealth in this?

 

[cormack12]

Yeah, hide in long grass like Aloy, then nip out, knife fools and re enter grass. Don't get seen though. Not that far in to determine if tools are effective or bow sniping from cover

I'm doing it wrong I guess

 

[semiconscious]

a number of these games certainly do make it challenging to take them seriously, eh?...

 

[bender]

Fixed.

 

[PanzerAzel]

In the first game, there was a way to set the guiding wind to lead you to flowers, fox dens, etc. I know the Shamisen is a substitute for this to find shrines and all, but is there a song that will lead you to flowers?

It starts basic but you get some great stealth gear later on too in the Kitsune area.

I even made a stealth build last night

Spoiler: now I feel invincible

 

[Beretta]

Just a heads up, when you get to the last brother bounty, it tells you to look for a tree with white leaves so my ass is running all over this area looking and there's no tree with white leaves….and then I stumbled upon an injured guy by the bottom of the nearby cliffs so look out for him (talk to him) and then you climb up to the tree

 

[DavidGzz]

Does the game not have Witcher Sense anymore?

In Tsushima you could "hear" enemies when sneaking around in camps, this helped a lot with figuring out where enemies were.

In de control options it says press R3 to listen but nothing happens.

The predator vision was nuts. Too OP. I hope it isn't in tbh.

 

[LordCBH]

Just got home and installed. Got dayum the intro was pretty awesome. Girl fighting demons.

Badass. Looking forward to it. That's the stuff I live for

 

[Saint Boot Gaming]

Controversy aside, I am annoyed that there is no demo for the game. People tell you to think for yourself. How am I to do that and make any kind of decision if I am not given the ability to engage with it at all in order to do that? They really want me to rely on YouTube and potential forum shills without being able to make my own decision?

 

[Markio128]

Atsu looking a bit miffed.

 

[Justin9mm]

I haven't started the game yet, can someone provide tips, best settings, must have options? Playing on Pro

 

[Jinxed]

OK I am officially done with the game at 20 hours.

Bad story,non linear,too much to doo honestly no energy for that right now.Also 30fps cutscenes is awful.It kills this game.

I will wait for all the expansions to be out and then play it again in a year or so

Assassin's creed shadows

I honestly have no idea how this game got 92 on metacritic.

I would honestly give it 6/10 at best.

It's above average

Expedition 33

Hate to say it but I uninstalled this game after 5 hours. It's not for me and I guess I wasted 70$.

GOT was my favorite PS4 exclusive but this game it beyond mediocre in terms of story,it's setup and main character.

I have no idea who am I fighting and no desire to take my revenge at all.

Now ghost of yotei

That's all there is to your douzain posts, do you need attention this bad?

I feel like the way the story starts is a bit weak compared to GoT, but 20 hours in I am digging the story a lot more now in GoY. I just really wish they would have taken a few weeks longer and given the samey missions slightly different openings. The 10th time you find a wolf den it feels so cut & paste it isn't funny. GoT had the same problem though.

 

[__SteakDeck__]

Glad to hear many are enjoying this game. To be honest I was not expecting as many praises. When I first heard that they were working with that nutjob activist for the voice actor, I lost all hope for the game and the studio. I do find it hard to believe that the game is not woke. Or if it is, not enough to get GAF attention. Reading comments here, it seems like they did a good job with a sequel by improving on the original in many ways. Since I do not have a PS5, I will not be getting the game. It is hard for me to look past the main character actress as you literally play a character who looks and definitely sounds like her. Even if the game comes out on PC and gets modded, they still hired her and specifically picked her, likely due to her politics. I have to wonder if Sony forced some last minute changes to remove any modern politics from the game. That would be good news, as there is hope for future first party Sony games.

Idk why people thought this game would be "woke". The first game wasn't. I don't think Nate Fox, the head of SP is woke unlike Neil Druckmann. Just because the voice actress is woke, it doesn't mean the game will be. Voice actors/actresses have no creative control over the product.
