Ironically, that's what's keeping me from picking it up. I like the Far Cry games a lot, even if the series peaked with 4. I really don't like Avatar, though.

Robin-11 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 My best friend bought himself a PS5 for Christmas. Although we are both gamers since we were kids we are not very familiar with the PS5 software catalogue. What do you think are the best titles released so far? Any killer apps? Thank you in advance for all your suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you in advance for all your suggestions. Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West are both fantastic, you can probably get the loaded GOTY version of Zero Dawn for dirt cheap too, FFVII Remake is great as well, sequel comes out at the end of February.

Robin-11 Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Thanks, talking about R.P.G. what about Tales of arise? I heard great things about it and it seems more JRPG oriented than most of other titles release so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Hunter D Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 FFXVI is visual feast for the PS5. It's definitely a more action oriented RPG compared to something more traditional like the Tales series. I found the story quite enjoyable, but the "crafting" element is useless imo. In any case, it's a great title to showcase the PS5's visual prowess, especially with the boss battles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who's into the Tales games who seems to think it's one of the better ones. Personally, I have a hard time getting into them. I tried Arise, and it's very anime, which is cool if you're into the story, but also kind of on the easy side and very linear. If you want really good JRPGs, go for Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin-11 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 I was convinced Tales of arise was a PS5 exclusive. Good to know, since i don't own a PS5 I might look into that. Thank you for your input anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tking22 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 With Dragons Dogma 2 dropping in just a couple of months I grabbed Dragons Dogma Dark Arisen for Series X for $4.70, to this day this game holds up as one of the greatest action RPGs of all time, it's still incredible. It's certainly dated in a few ways, graphics for sure, but damn the gameplay, RPG elements, companions/pawns, character building and progression are phenomenal, it's still such an absolutely stacked RPG well beyond many modern games. Highly recommended if you've never tried it but seen people gush about it for years, it's an incredible game that has tons of replay value, and the combat is just insanely fun. Dragons Dogma 2 seems to improving on the original game in every way so I'm insanely hyped, I'll be grabbing that instead of FFVII Rebirth for sure, I'll check that out eventually, part 1 was just okay.

Yeah, while I liked the more cinematic feel and some of the stuff they added to part 1, in a lot of ways I felt like the pacing was just way off, like they were really trying too hard to stretch the handful of opening hours in the original into a 60 hour game. I also didn't really care for how they turned the turn-based party combat of the original into an RPG-lite button masher... but then again, I've always preferred the NES/SNES Final Fantasy games to the PSone/PS2 games, and I haven't even bothered to play one of the numbered FF games after X.

mikeszekely Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The only actually-exclusive PS5 game they showed off at State of Play that grabbed my attention is Stellar Blade. Everything else I'm either not interested in or I'll play on PC (or, in the case of that Ghostbusters one, Meta Quest). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeszekely Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 2 hours ago, davidwhangchoi said: it's free on gamepass also PalWorld is free too True, but I'm going to buy the Steam version in the desperate hope that it motivates Atlus to port Shin Megami Tensei V to PC. In a perfect world they'd remaster IV and Apocalypse, too, but porting 3DS games to other systems is always going to be more work to alter the interface for a single screen.

mikeszekely Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Would have preferred the X-Men arcade beat-em up over a SNES game, but I get that it's a licensing thing (Capcom developed the SNES game before all the arcade fighters, and Konomi developed the '92 arcade game).

Almost as awesome as this: https://personacentral.com/smt-v-vengeance-announcement/ Finally, I 've been begging Atlus for SMT:V on PC ever since they ported SMT 3! That alone would be fantastic news, but they're effectively doubling the length of the game by calling the original story "Canon of Creation" and adding a remixed version called "Canon of Vengeance", too, that starts the same but significantly alters the story further in. Toss in 40 more demons, some quality of life tweaks, and all the DLC from the original Switch release, and even more DLC to come, and this could be my GOTY. I wonder if it's too early to start asking Atlus for a PC port of SMTIV and SMTIV: Apocalypse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
