best3444 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 @SimpleG I totally forgot that section was a gameplay section. It was pretty simple to just look up at the dojo and lock on then hit X. It wasn't presented very well but I'm an idiot for not seeing it. Enjoying my time with it. The visuals can be really nice at times. The combat is a bit loose and can actually be quite difficult. I enjoy the characters and story and i plan on playing the DLC once I'm finished with my playthrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you get past the no lock on and get some practice in , you can walk thru a fort like a god damn sword slinging demon. Kick the gate down, talk shit, murder them all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit, the no auto lock on is frustrating to me. I'm getting better with the combat but it's still a bit rough around the edges.

best3444 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Played 3 hours straight today. I'm finally getting really good with the combat. I would say visually this has a lot going on and looks great but I still think RDR2 looks better. @stepee confirm this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t been able to play the new version yet as I was ran over by a truck but I think Ghosts in bc mode already looked better than RDR2 on console just because it was close enough and 60fps and the art is lovely. Technically RDR2 has way more detail and shit tho and obviously looks better on pc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a minute since I played rdr2 so I could be mistaken. I hope recovery is going ok for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 The consistency and world detail is a lot higher in RDR2, it’s just the 30fps and aggressive TAA making the image look blurry is also very consistent there. But anyway Ghosts is beautiful because it’s art is beautiful, I don’t think it’s any kind of technical wonder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love this game and I feel it was very well made. It's not reinventing the wheel but it's taking a few concepts from other similar titles and does it well/better.

I won't be able to play games (aside from handheld during down time) from October 1st to December 8th, so my plan is to finish this, deathloop, and Kena before we start fishing crab. It's easily in my top 3 games of last year, which is pretty incredible considering the absolute gems we got in 2020. This year actually feels lackluster in comparison, so far (aside from Psycohonauts 2). Hell, I enjoyed it so much that when I was done, I only needed to find 2 or 3 shrines for the platinum. It was the first platinum I have ever gotten, and it came from just enjoyment of playing the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who stared the DLC once I finished Act 2 of the main game… it’s a bit weird to have Jin cop to what I assume happens at the end of the main storyline.

best3444 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I played 3 hours today but they don't have an in game timer. I'm deep in Act 2 and I just think this game is really well done. Compared to other open world games this is much more focused, interesting, and not as bloated with nonsense. I love this game and it's definitely a favorite of mine last gen. I look forward to beating the main story then tackle the DLC. @BloodyHell I'm going to play Psycohonauts 2 after I fully dissect Ghost. Then there are a few more gems coming up. Like Deathloop and I'm going to replay TLOU2 again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

best3444 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Played 3 hours of iki Island and it's very good. So far maybe not as interesting as the main game but it's still awesome. I'm not sure how long this dlc is supposed to last but I can't get enough of this game. It's actually pretty massive in terms of side quests and the like. I've skipped all side quests throughout the main game and doing so in iki as well. I feel like I've put 25 hours into this but I have no idea since they don't keep track of that. Every fucking game should keep track in how long you've played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

best3444 Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 For fuck sakes guys, help me out! Lol Is there a way to restart iki Island? I went to my loads and I have nothing that works for me in that way. I'm close to beating iki so I was wanting to start over. If not, I'll just beat it from where I'm at I guess.

best3444 Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I beat Iki island today. I'll tell you what, this game isn't easy. I struggled with the last fight but it was very satisfying to beat the Eagle. I dissected this game and have nothing to do in it anymore. Great overall package. @stepee For some reason my ps4 pro struggled a bit on iki Island so it would have been nice to play this on the ps5. I know you're busy with plenty of games but be sure to play this and the dlc. It's a great game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually excited to play valhalla tbh. 60fps with native 4k will be awesome. I loved that game but never beat it. Now is a good time to go back. I'm going to be up late Wednesday night that's for sure. I can't wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
