[CS Lounge] Ahh home, let me come home~ šŸŽ¶

Iā€™m considering buying a console to go with my new TV. Never been much of a console gamer, but maybe itā€™s time for a change.

What exactly are you looking for? As in what kind of experiences?

Generally speaking, the big selling point (true selling point) are exclusive titles.

Iā€™m an RPG kinda guy. Not in to shooters. Or even an online community really any more. This one is fine for me. Donā€™t care for PvP type of stuff. Iā€™ve lost my passion for gaming, as well as everything else, and thought maybe a change would help. Maybe something big and new(ish) and 4k would help keep my mind off of ā€¦things.

So for 4K youā€™re going to be looking at a PS4 Pro or the Xbox One X.
Also youā€™re going to have to break down RPG further. A lot of RPGs these days are heavy action. God of War, Spiderman, Kingdom Hearts 3, Horizon Zero Dawn for example.

I donā€™t know if Iā€™m looking for action like Monster Hunter, but Iā€™m intrigued by Anthem,FF15, Dark Souls 3, and the like . Of course thereā€™s always Elder Scrolls , NWN , and Witch 3. Heard some good things about Divinity. Iā€™m not in to Borderlands or Assassinā€™s Creed and the like. Maybe a Resident Evil.

Youā€™ve got a bit of reading and game-play to watch then.
Be careful with Anthem. Thereā€™s a good chance that EA screwed the game before launch.

I used to have one.

o.O

Yes, we have one. But that kind of defeats the purpose of multiplayer Tetris. :rofl::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Ugh. Seriously? Thanks for the heads up. If i even do it.

PONG!

EA sacrificed Mass Effect Andromeda to speed up Anthemā€™s development.
Theyā€™ve been torching games to exploit players and donā€™t seem to care. Stock investors have been digging their heels in with multiple publishers.

What?
Donā€™t look so surprised!

They also pulled pretty much every dev that was left from SWTOR to work on Anthem

We had one of these bad-boys growing up:

The cartridges had handles on them so that you could pull them back out. Not kidding.

Edit: Iā€™ve also never met anyone since growing up that had one or has ever heard of itā€¦so not really surprised they didnā€™t make more! Haha!

And it could very well end up like Battlefront 2. Instead of exploitive loot boxes it will be exploitive microtransactions.

Would I have known Alvraen requested not to discuss things like that in this thread, I would not have said anything. I did not see his/her post though. =(

I ā€¦ Iā€™m not hungry?

And yea - FFIX and Tetris 99 out ā€œlater today,ā€ Zelda out this year, and FFVII out in March. Astral Chain looks kind of fun, too.

Definitely need my own Switch now.

Alright, Thunderwulf, you should be set, but flagging is usually done in batches. It should likely be in the next 24 hours, but I donā€™t know exactly when those all go through, could be a little longer.

Wait wait wait Mulberry. Did I read that correctly? Final Fantasy FFIX is out on the Switch? Donā€™t tease a Final Fantasy fan like that

I mean ā€¦
