Ubisoft bleeding itself after boldly releasing Skull and Bones instead of making it a tax write off.

Literally the first game(s) I went for, only to find out my wishlist votes from way back had already transferred :grin: I almost feel like GOG started this whole thing literally to try to push the NOLF deadlock forward :sweat_smile:

(I would kindly ask people to upvote Arma 2, Chameleon (2005), and Vietcong for me :pray: )

Ooh, that’s great news for Playstation fans on PC! Especially since they’re making a PSN account optional for these games!

I’ve read that a lot of PC people are annoyed by the account requirement especially for these single-player games. Reviews on Steam are a little… shaky with it.

Starting with tomorrow’s release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PC, we’re working to add more benefits to playing with an account for PlayStation Network. The Last of Us Part II Remastered (coming April 3, 2025), in addition to God of War Ragnarök and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, will all soon be adding in-game content unlocks for PlayStation Network account users.

An account for PlayStation Network will become optional for these titles on PC.

And it seems like they’re offering early unlock cosmetics and stuff as incentives to play on PC.
Also this probably confirms an update to the PS5 version of TLOU 2 since that Intergalactic Jacket cosmetic is new.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2:
Early unlock suits: the Spider-Man 2099 Black Suit and the Miles Morales 2099 Suit

God of War Ragnarok:
Gain access to the Armor of the Black Bear set for Kratos at the first Lost Items chest in the Realm Between Realms (previously only accessible in a New Game+ run) and a resource bundle (500 Hacksilver and 250 XP)

The Last of Us Part II Remastered:
+50 points to activate bonus features and unlock extras
Jordan’s Jacket from Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet as a skin for Ellie

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered:
Gain access to Nora Valiant outfit


YAYYY finally Worlds Part 2 for No Man’s Sky!! Cool that they’re adding a whole new planet type – Gas Giants ooooh. Plus a whole new lighting system and water reflections, cool cool.

Hello Games has been really good at implementing all this stuff into VR, so even if this new patch is a bit wonky with that version, they’ll iron out the kinks over time.
I still like going back to NMS – especially now that I have VR – just to roam around and look at all the pretty stuff hehe.

Yep, problem was also that people from certain countries couldn’t create a PSN account :grimacing:

Very reassuring, EA…

Since Dragon Age Veilguard was a flop, they might have to scrap a lot of the work they did on ME5 and start from scratch.

Ah yes because pulling stunts like that worked out so well for Veilguard.

I don’t think it’s the “stunt” itself that was the problem so much as how they decided to utilize the stunt. Although I’m judging based on the reviews I’ve seen.

Devs should really take notes from games such as BG3 if they want to make a good RPG. You hear me, Todd!?
