Damn, I'm late to the party. You have no life, people! I had to go through a lot of pages to catch up. I hope you don't hate my multiple answer posts. I don't want to spam the thread like

I fully support your opinion. There are thousands of "fun" games, yet only a handful of attempts from the gaming industry to achieve something more. Gaming is already bigger than other forms of entertainment in terms of money it produces. It's time it started producing mature content for those people who are looking for something more than "fun" in the medium.
If you put a controller to charge after every gaming session, the chances of running out of battery are almost none. But of course you can blame it on poor battery if you are forgetful.
Comparing phones and consoles isn't a good idea. Phones are social statements, too, because other people see what phone you have, all the time. That's why Apple grew a cult of followers, just like fashion brands. They could sell anything for any price and some people would still bite. There are more reasons why those are different, but this one is quite outstanding.
It's in-engine realtime running on PS5 devkit, probably captured from HDMI. That's why you see a lot of flaws and artefacts which will be worked on and eliminated in those places where they affect IQ and performance. That's how you make games. If you want answers why the particular artefacts happen in particular places, you could try ask someone with extensive knowledge in realtime graphics, like The Cherno. But I'd only see the point in it for educational purposes. HZD2 is far from being finished.
With SSD, GoT has almost no loading between fast travels. I keep wondering if they're already benefiting from the software part of Oodle/Kraken combo because it seems like a major improvement while playing.
I agree. I was offered to buy bitcoin for $5 a piece many years ago but I didn't want to spend money on something which seemed like a pyramid scheme. Well, here I am now

It's like saying that Demon Soul's is like Golden Axe but with better graphics. See what I did here? Socom is a tactical co-op game, nothing like COD. It's sad that COD is dominating the FPS genre so much these days, especially for people who hate it, like me.
