I haven’t played Nier or Nier Automata, but I want to play Automata and have been on the lookout for a copy of Nier on 360 or PS3, because it’s not easy to find now.

FFVIIR-4: The Golden Saucer.

If you want to compare it to TV this is like remaking Game of Thrones but they’re charging you whatever a yearly HBO subscription costs per episode and the entire first season is just those two guys who got killed by White Walkers in the intro of the first episode. Season two is going to be the murder of John Arryn.

I agree - there is no accessibility issue here - the original is available and totally playable on all modern platforms, plus a handful of old ones. I’m replaying it right now on PS4 to get all the trophies. I don’t need the remake to experience FFVII as it was 23 years ago. And I don’t think there’s any point in…

I would feel so much better about it if there was some sort of roadmap - like if they announced that it was going to be in 3 parts, with part 2 arriving by Christmas and part 3 this time next year, and whether the other parts were going to be sold as separate, full-price retail releases or DLC, perhaps with a season…

As in “if anything is 4x better looking, that is”. However you want to quantify it, Odyssey looks better than Black Flag.

each one of them having announced anything between 2 to 4 times, or about, more power than the previous generation. Thing is, what we get on screen, while better, is never in line with the same order of magnitude.

Yeah but there are no auto updates on 3DS and it’s painfully slow.

Because every time they release a new update there is coverage about it like this, which reminds people that it exists and that it’s good now and that there might be a cool new feature they would like, and that must translate into a fresh burst of sales.

You just said yourself “The Juice amplifies emotions”. Now you’re saying it changes the way people act. Which is it? Changes or amplifies? Because it can’t amplify what isn’t there.

Well good for you, but I was talking about The Witcher 3 specifically there and that doesn’t have HDR on PC. Very few games do.

I, for one, believe this kind of distinction is important.

I don’t know about superior/inferior. On my PC it’s 1440 60fps but on my Xbox One X it’s 4K HDR 30fps with surround sound. Plus my PC is at a desk but sometimes it’s just nice to game on the sofa and big TV. 

It started with Nazi Zombie Army, which was PC-only DLC for Sniper Elite V2, as was Nazi Zombie Army 2, released later the same year (2013).

You must be thinking of something else. It was playable at E3 2004 (presumably this is the build that has now been leaked, as it sounds like it has the same missions) but nothing playable has ever been released publicly.

I guess graphics, plot, hero units, more diversity between factions...

Single player will still work if you install from disc, just don’t patch it to the latest version.

Yep.

Yep - came here to say that.

Wow, this is beautiful.
