The PS4 gets much more silent if you open it up and clean it’s heatsink. And if you go out of your way to remove the heatsink and even replace the thermal paste, it’ll get very silent. I’m talking very silent. Not just from a vacuum cleaner down to a rainfall. I mean all the way down to whispering. 

Exactly. There is a difference whether you build up a studio over years and create these franchises that are only on your platform like Mario or Ratchet & Clank or if you look at which third party games are famous and the just go out and buy them. 

Even if the SSD is a smaller than the HDD of a PS4 Pro for example, PS5 games are smaller themselves because of the data-duplication in PS4 games which was needed to get load times lower back then, which isn’t necessary on an SSD anymore. This doesn’t fix the problem of unreasonably huge games if you’re playing…

I’m pretty sure that DF was talking about the lack of a dynamic day-night cycle, which is a compromise they had to make to achieve that stunning result. All day-times in that game are hard-baked, which is what DF was talking about because they talk about the technical solutions and compromises. Which is non…

I don’t think you’re in the minority. Most of the reactions I saw were positive. Everyone was shocked, but almost everyone I saw loves the design. Kotaku was really the first site I saw where someone said it’s ugly. And I really can’t understand why.

You know, in one or two generations people will have these debates about contemporary artists or authors of this generation because they were carnivores. I hope they will have the dignity, not to write “yikes” in their articles.  

You can use the keyboard, DS4 and move controllers. Mouse support has been requested a few years ago, but MMs developers said they didn’t think about it yet because it wouldn’t help as much as you might think

My favorite vidoe game OSTs are Nier:Gestalt/Replicant, Genso Suikoden 2, Bloodborne, the Silent Hill series, Persona 4 (especially with Golden), but what puzzles me a lot is that I don’t see any comment for Final Fantasy XIV. That game has so many killer tracks, it’s even hard to decide. (It also holds the guinness…

Automata’s soundtrack is one of the best ever made. However, I still prefer the first Nier’s soundtrack:

That’s why he used the FFXIV example. You should watch one of the Fall and Rise of FFXIV documentaries. They completely remade the whole game while bringing the old one into a playable game (not taking money for it along the way). Eventually they destroyed the game‘s world in the ingame story, rewarded legacy players…

That’s ad hominem, a non-argument.

Wipeoutin VR is a really good implementation. I already owned the game on PS Vita and PS3, but I bought it for PS4 after the VR patch came out.

I can’t tell you how that happened. but it’s a common mistake that exists since before google translate was a thing. And I don’t know why I need to explain or defend a common misconception at all. It’s not something I made up, but something someone told me years ago who lives in Japan.

The “no foreigners” signs are actually misunderstood and have nothing to do with these recent incidents. 

Thank you! 

This will be the first entry of Violet Evergarden after the TV show and Eternity and the Auto Memories, which will not have its world premier on AnimgiC in Germany (TV series first premiered on AnimagiC 2017 and Eternity and the Auto Memories premiered on AnimagiC 2019. I was in both *-*). But I hope we still get to…

There are some games I really like, but haven’t finished yet. But I don’t think there is any game, where I would say I love it, I didn’t finish at least two times now.

I think that’s Diana. But could also be a more chibi looking Luna.

Story of my life. ;)

Question: Is there a reason to have a microphone at all? I thought Nintendo’s solution to cross game chat parties is some smartphone app.
