Sucker Punch says we're getting a 60FPS mode in Ghost of Tsushima via ps5 boost mode

This is nice but when I played it was pretty much rock solid 30fps so I don’t know if most people would notice a huge difference.

Holy poo poo, I thought Monster had a drink called Gods and Monsters, but no it's any product with Monster in the name from toys to dog treats. Somebody warn Capcom.

Monster probably wouldn’t win the lawsuit but a lot of companies don’t want the trouble anyway.

They're a bit more credible than that since the GTA5 and RDR2 maps were leaked in the same way.

Yeah I doubt most multiplatform games will take much advantage of haptic triggers. But it'll be cool for 1st party games.

Demon's Souls feels more balanced around melee combat and I would recommend that people use a melee build their first time through with some select magic and bows, only because using nothing but ranged magic becomes pretty dull and easy and it isn't very engaging. That said, play the game however you want!

Can't wait to just one-shot every boss with Firestorm.

Demon's Souls trophies, obviously spoilers if you've never played it.

https://www.exophase.com/game/demons-souls-psn/trophies/

They removed the weapon upgrade trophies and the one for getting all unique weapons, thank god. Replaced with some boss challenges, pretty straight forward. If it's like DeS you'll need to get to at least NG++ to get the platinum.

It is the first Souls game to have online-only trophies though, so the platinum will be unobtainable when they shut down the servers in like...10 years

I thought it was only Cyberpunk 2077 but I'm getting stick drift in Nioh 2 now too...I hope it's a software issue that can be fixed through patches. I've only had this issue with PS4 games though, maybe there's something wrong there.

Yeah it's great feeling controller but oof. Seems like a matter of when more than if it goes bad.

Luckily it's the one PS5 thing that isn't in short supply, so you can just game retail store return policies to ge a new one if yours breaks lol.

What if it was in a bundle though? Can you get a return or do you have to go through Sony to get it fixed?

Huh my controller isn’t drifting with Nioh 2 remastered even though it did with Nioh 2 PS4. I guess it really is only a problem with PS4 games, which I can just my PS4 controller for so it isn’t an issue.

Bust Rodd posted:

that's because every AAA game from the last 5 years that isn't an FPS is cribbing from the same pool of ideas that they've been stealing from each other. That's probably why TLoU2 even has a weird section up front that sort of baits you into thinking it will be an open world exploration horse game, like Zelda but with Zombies, and then it pulls its MGS2 Raiden trick.

It's not really the MGS2 Raiden trick if there's 15-20 hours of gameplay before it happens.

Do you guys think weapon durability is a good or necessary mechanic in FROM games? People complain about it in BOTW but I feel it's more integrated into the design of that game than Bloodborne or Dark Souls where it just feels like an annoyance you have to account for once every few hours.

It's only ever been an issue in DS2 when there was a glitch that made it run out too fast. In DS1 it was unnoticeable unless you were using special weapon abilities that basically used durability as mana, and DS3 got rid of that system since it has weapon arts.

Of course there's the Scraping spear and such in Demon's Souls but outside of PVP you'll probably never notice durability.
