Looks like even some of the haters broke down. Time heals all wounds.

Heck man....I was defending the game from the very beginning when folks went nuts about it having a female protag. Never a hater. Just didn't like the shit that happened. Don't want to make the thread about that though.

Only 10 minutes to go but the man flu has got the better of me, and I'm off to bed. I'll look forward to reading some impressions tomorrow.

The marketing for this game has to be shocking 20 minutes in and safely say it's best looking ps5 games I played can't wait to see running on my pro tomorrow

I wasn't talking about you. But like you said, lets just talk about the game. I shouldn't have brought it up.

My bad. Yeah.....back to the game.....

Was there some hotfix to the patch? Until yesterday they said it was going to be 1.006. But now it is 1.007?

 

[Lokaum D+]

fomo is hitting hard, but i must be stronger, no buy, a rental will have to do

 

[DavidGzz]

Looks like my game is being patched once again. Downloading another patch but it was already finished just an hour ago.

Played an hour and 30 minutes or so now. Utterly stunning on the pro, anyone who says otherwise is delusional.
Didn't expect it to go so heavy on the kill bill/samurai themed western kinda vibes either, loving that.
Atsu's voice as a kid in english is awful, my only complaint so far.

 

[STARSBarry]

Played 2 hours now going to bed.

My early thoughts are this, I feel far less interested in the story over the first one. I guess because I feel like the introduction to this character was so sudden, im unsure how to describe it, but by the time the title screen rolled in Tsushima I had a much better grasp of Jin than I do of the protagonist in Yotei.

Iv done a few more flash backs and a few side quests at the nearby Inn and im not yet sure who Atsu is and this makes it diffcult to connect, this was not an issue in the first game, im unsure why it is here. So far she could just be some Elden Ring tarnised I made myself, there's nothing there right now.

Yeah that was hilarious. Did they get Erika to pretend to sound like a kid? I guess we should imagine this as her reliving the memory in her mind with her imitating her kid voice

 

[viveks86]

I do have one complaint already though.
Whenever you're riding a horse the aspect ratio changes to look more cinematic I guess. There's no option to disable it currently...

I don't remember this happening in Tsushima or have I forgotten?

Just read about a solution. Pressing R3 cycles through different views while on horseback. Seems there are 3 views total, 2 without bars.

Might be useful to put that in the OP cormack12 , as I've seen a couple of reviewers go through the entire game and call it out as a negative without even knowing about this option.

 

[DavidGzz]

There are supposedly a lot of accessibility options as well. You can even make the perfect parry window a barn door for us old fucks.

Same here. Loved the company for InFamous and the first Ghost game, defended it against morons hating just because Jin was replaced by a GuRl!!!!!!! then the toxicity hit from within their dev team, then they fired it.

Still think I'll wait and get the game used or on a deep sale since it's basically just gender dlc.

And another one:

Silent Hill f, FF Tactics and Yōtei all in the past 7 days, what a time to be alive. I want to wrap up my NG+ playthroughs of Silent Hill and I'm focused on Tactics but looking forward to digging in sometime within the next couple of weeks
