I played the previous game, Tales of Zestiria, and it was actually really boring. And with lots of camera issues. And an empty open world. And the combat system was kind of rushed. And 30fps only. And the cool main female character gets axed and replaced, using one of the most wtf explanations. I'm not trying to dog it, but it really did not meet the expectations you'd want out of a $50 game. I really tried to like it. I put in about 40 hours before I had to admit it to myself this is terrible. That's just my opinion tho.
I was looking at that game since it's only $12 or so on Steam right now but not sure when I'd get to it. Already planning on Nioh, Nier Automata, and Persona 5. If I do get Berseria it would probably be after those anyways.
 
Just got a free $10 voucher that's been sitting in my notifications since the 19th apparently. The code expires after today, so I'm glad I saw it.

Thanks Sony guy.
 
Still tempted to get Fifa, mostly just because it is a pro game. I already have NHL and MLB the Show (for $12!) so I have zero time for another sports game, but hey. I think I finally have to put Destiny on the shelf and play other games.
 
Version 1.04d Update
DECEMBER 6 - RDEIN
Hello everyone!

This is a quick update message regarding a minor patch that went up last night. The game was updated with two fixes for some issues. The list of changes is:

-Fixed an issue where arrows would not work correctly when both the "Drill Arrows" item and the "Quick Arrows" item were equipped at the same time.

-Fixed a framerate issue which happened to some players when you got the "Healthy!" achievement.

In other news, it seems an official announcement was made about Momodora: RUtM coming to the PS4! We've been busy with console ports, and once they are complete we'll move onto porting the game to other platforms.

That's all for now. See ya!

I downloaded Paragon a while ago but never tried it. Does it have a decent player base? I figured Overwatch kind of crushed it. I don't even find time to play that either.
 
I play it on PC once in a while. It's not too bad although haven't played much since they retooled it a few weeks back.

FIFA looks great on Pro. Immediately notice the difference (but I also upgraded my TV at the same time so maybe it's a combo effect).

I did end up picking up Fifa. That $30 sale was staring at me too long.

It can be hard to tell the Pro upgrade vs the TV. On my launch X1 games still look really good just with the TV. Fifa does look very nice on the Pro as I've played it through EA Access on X1 and the Pro is very nice.

No 4k TV here but still want the Pro to hopefully guarantee 1080/60. At least with games like Nioh and Nier coming up that is required, otherwise you get lower res or framerate. I'd really like to wait until OLED 4k comes down in price before making the jump.
 
Some great TV deals are soon to be announced pre-Superbowl. Good luck holding off!
 
So Linux/Steam is now running on PS4, making it the first real gaming console ever to exist.
 
I got the Playstation Headphones today for the PS4Pro... my god these are stunning....people talk about the Elite controller as a killer SP.....This is amazing

I should have been more specific. It would have to be 65in+ preferably under $2k. LG's 55in is about there now with sale but I have a 50in now so I'd want something a little bigger at that resolution.

I just went from a 52" to a 65" and the difference is stunning. While I was expecting a nice boost in the picture itself, I am happily surprised how much a difference the size increase has made. DEFINITELY hold out for a 65" if you can and I know from experience you will be glad to you did.

For that price range I would get a Vizio that's Full Array/HDR/Dolby Vision ready or a Hisense(they own sharp) Full Array HDR ready over the edge lit LG's,Sony or Samsungs. You can get good deals with the 2016 models and Hisense has newer models coming(I didn't see Vizio's 2017 lineup announced)
I own a 75 inch now but 65 inch is the sweet spot for 4K IMO.

I'd like to hold off for an OLED at this point.
 
I quoted you for the size/price range you wanted.
I can look into a decent 65 inch oled if you want?
Sony,LG and Panasonic will have em in 2016.

You do realize it is now 2017? If not, Happy New Year and welcome! :wink:
 
Thought we had a thread for DriveClub but couldn't see anything for general discussions, so this will do. Anyone still play this? Haven't touched it in almost 2 years now and decided to give it another chance. Not sure what they had changed between then or if it was just the time away but really enjoyed the few races I did last night. Best thing is I got a giant stack of DLC to play now. Think I had only tried the first race of the first maybe three DLC before. Was in dire need of a racing game so this should keep me busy until GT Sport comes out.
 
I'll have to try Driveclub again on my pro. I bought it cheap a while back, but the framerate was terrible and the driving model did not impress. Honestly if I want to drive I'm playing on an alternate platform.
 
Well frame rate is still 30 and driving model still bonkers sometimes. I have a renewed interest in it but we'll see how long that lasts.

I keep giving it a chance, but it's just not good/fun for me

I'm going from memory, but it felt way under 30 to me last time I tried it. It didn't feel smooth like Horizon. (again this was before Pro was out so not sure if Pro runs better).

Just doing a quick search I didn't see anything about an update for the game. So not being a software dev I can't be for certain but I would think that faster hardware would give it a more solid framerate. But I come from knowing more about PC hardware and the fact that an upgrade will definitely help. Anyways, I still think it's worth checking out again. It felt fine to me last night and this was in what appears to be a newly added tour that gives you a taste of the game so to speak. My only negative about it is that completing the races within that tour didn't actually go towards the real deal, and most of the races had torrential downpours. Can be hard to use in car cam with all the s*** going on.

Almost missed this as it showed up second in my notifications even though you replied first... anyways thoughts in previous post. I can completely understand your feeling because I tried coming back once before as well. Figure it's been long enough now that it's worth another try. I'd be lying if I didn't say I have run into some of those previous issues, like car randomly losing control for no reason and going sideways into a wall, or AI cars being a******s and ramming into your line, while you get docked the kudos (I miss PGR) or whatever.
