Luceo posted:https://blog.playstation.com/2021/05/19/the-last-of-us-part-ii-performance-patch-for-ps5/ I think they're just saying it's the first major PS5 thing of any kind that Naughty Dog has worked on, kind of like how TLOU Remastered was done in part so they could get used to the PS4 dev tools. (They did also update TLOU Remaster for some PS5 improvements, but it was pretty subtle.) Downloaded and tried it out a bit and holy good gravy is it pretty. I'm definitely gonna do another playthrough to check it all out. (But I've played it like three times now so I might be an outlier.  )

PantsBandit posted:Speaking of MGSV, I just started a replay of it! Turns out there's no way to just start a new game without deleting your save file at the system level. We really need a :kojima: emote. If you've gotta knock them out, hit them with the full CQC combo. That'll give you the longest period of unconsciousness in the game. If you can manage it, hold them up and then make them get on the ground. They'll stay there until you trip an alert. The pro strat is to knock someone out, pick them up and move them somewhere out of the way of patrols, kick them to wake them up, and then hold them up on the ground so they'll stay in place.

My biggest issue with MGSV, that ruined the immersion for me, was there was no political fallout for the player’s actions in Afghanistan. Like, in any game purporting to be realistic, even 10% of the actions undertaken by the player (especially kidnapping and holding prisoner that lady in a bikini top) would have caused massive international outcry. I just don’t see the Diamond Dogs existing for long in the real world. Nothing they do is subtle.

Bust Rodd posted:MGS 1 & 2 and I guess also 3 all really love to pepper the silliness around the edges of the game, like the guy who always craps his pants or whatever. It's there for you to find, but it's not centralized. MGSV was like "Here is an incredibly dumb thing that is absolutely central to the mechanics of the game, it's something you have to do over and over constantly". MGS3 had a boss who shot bees out of a gun made of bees

Regarding TLOU2, I quit the first game about 1/3 of the way through. I really enjoyed the story and the acting, but the gameplay itself was very dull to me, and it also felt very linear. I never followed any of 2's development at all, and aside from hearing the news about leaks and chuds being angry about Elle being gay, I didn't really know or care about anything else regarding it. Still, a good friend convinced me to give it a whirl, especially now that I have a PS5, and I am certainly enjoying it a lot more than the first. The stealth combat with human enemies is outstanding and probably the best I've ever played, which really surprised me. Fighting the infected isn't that inspiring, but it's perfectly fine, and I like the semi-open world aspect of the game. I tend to lose interest in games, but this one has kept me engaged, and I think having gone in with almost no knowledge of the game prior has helped to both temper my expectations and surprise me. Seeing tons of 1 star user reviews made me laugh, because it's so obvious that they're from the incel crowd, and most of them are just copy/pasted. In closing, yeah, TLOU2 is a pretty cool game and I am enjoying it, and I would suggest people check it out if they are interested but didn't care for the first one.

I was gonna put it off but the DF video got me all worked up for a replay. TLOU2 owns so hard. Looking forward to playing more aggressively on a harder difficulty, goodness does the gameplay shine when you're under pressure.
