Dude I played this game back in the 90’s even before I had a cognitive thought and existed.

I know you’re just getting started with it but by chance, is it online only (as in you can’t unlock anything unless you are) like MK 11?

I haven’t tried it but i saw people complaining about it on reddit so i guess its just like mk11

I’ll be getting to the end of Control soon and while I still have the Foundation and other side-missions to finish if I wanna go for 100% again, I wanna get to something New once I’m done, since I’m bouncing between the same and old games I already know.
The good new stuff I’m really looking forward to are all at the end of next month…
Help me decide for once I’m done, or offer up your own suggestion if you want. Here’s what interests me from my backlog/ PS+ Catalog
Decently long game, preferably with a good narrative/exploration
- Ghost of Tsushima
- Assassin’s Creed Origins
- Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart
- Judgement
- God of War (2018)

An underrated game I may suggest - Days Gone. Watch the gameplay (sawmill) and cinematic trailer Zombies once. Please ignore if you have already played it.

I very much recommend Origins and God Of War. Both have excellent stories and a good length.

I cannot recommend Ghost of Tsushima. The game is alright, but holds nothing compared to other PS4 exclusives. To be quite frank the game feels outdated in its world design and encounters. Like a early open world game from the PS3 era.
I find it overrated. Not bad, but far from a PlayStation exclusive must play.

I tried that one once. Or maybe twice.
Got to the second settlement in the game, but the game felt a little too packed with busywork with scavenging and crafting (and there were a few tedious forced stealth/eavesdropping missions near the start that turned me off)
Good. Thanks.
Really? A lot of the buzz I heard surrounding this game was how unique its navigation was compared to any other open-world, and how the encounters and side missions were worked into the gameplay+story very well.
I’ve played the multiplayer mode when that became free on Plus and enjoyed that for the combat.

The game is unique in it’s approach to combat, seamlessly switching between combat stances.
But the approach to the world is very classic and formulaic, especially for a game in the PS3 era. Random encounters can be pretty much summed up to a few different scenarios, it all feels very empty and scripted. The beauty of the world comes in design and pretty countryside Japan and it’s different seasons.
The main missions often follow the same formula, do “side” missions, then liberate castle and do it all again.
Every now and then there are some exciting and cinematic missions that are great. But in the end I would say it’s a pretty formulaic PS3 era open world game, but almost two generations too late.
It’s good, but nothing special. There is a reason why many describe it as Assassin Creed Japan. I plan to replay it again, but that is more to due with my own experience with Japan. It’s more likely I’ll replay Witcher 3 for the third time, before this.

FWIW, I only voted for Ghosts of Tsushima because it involves a theme I like very much. I have never played it… not yet anyway.

lmaooo Khaki at it again with the weird gamer take! Thanks buddy, noted! 
Hmm, okay. Sounds like any old open-world game, but as it’s all based around combat I’m sure that’s still fun. Thanks for the input.

There we go!
I was gonna say, I was surprised you were lumping this one japanese mystery-puzzle game with all these other action-adventure titles with heavy narratives that I know you dislike…

God of War 2018 is a far cry from what the series used to be, the violence is toned down, Atreus is nothing more than annoying, Kratos is irritating and the bosses except the one Dragon you fight are lame as fuck.
The Troll “Bosses” are like the worst and uninspired boss fights in a modern videogame.
Ragnarok is far better in every regard, but also just not as good as GoW2 was.
I recommend you to play Ghost of Tsushima, it’s probably not like the best game ever, but it has a wonderful artstyle that made me more often stop right in my tracks to just admire the gameworld than not.
Also the Sword Fighting is hella fun.

I like GoT. The multiplayer Co-op is fantastic.
Hang on… @TheChicken didn’t we play that together once?!

We did once yes! It is a fun wave-based mode.

GoT is literally the “Thing: 
Thing Japan: 
” meme, it is a gussied up Assassin’s Creed game with the well refined combat system being the only real difference. I can’t believe I am saying this but just buy Power Wash Simulator or Dredge for the same price. What Remains of Edith Finch is on special if you want a nice short game (you don’t but I am just going to recommend it anyway), as is the Ace Attorney trilogy (Which is long).
Pathfinder Wrath of Righteous is discounted, it is Baldur’s Gate 3 but based on the much superior RPG game because I always pimp Pathfinder over DnD. Kentucky Route Zero: TV Edition is cheap and I can certainly say that game is sufficiently long and has one of the best narratives ever. Get Cult of the Lamb before they remove it from stores next year and support an Australian developer or you could support an Australian developer and buy Stray Gods, I know you are a theatre kid so you might get a kick out of it .
NORCO is a measly 13 bucks which means it is cheap for you as well, hands down some of the best pixel artwork of its year and one of the best examinations of the awful world we live in. Steve Jackson’s Sorcery: The Complete Collection is also discounted if you like reading. Also speaking of reading if you haven’t played it yet Disco Elysium, it isn’t on sale or anything I pimp it at every opportunity.

I didn’t mention it, but all of these on the list aren’t costing me right now. It’s all in the PS+ Extra Catalog. Still, I guess thanks for the advice lol
What Remains of Edith Finch is on special if you want a nice short game (you don’t but I am just going to recommend it anyway), as is the Ace Attorney trilogy (Which is long).
Played both of these, enjoyed them
Pathfinder Wrath of Righteous
Kentucky Route Zero: TV Edition
Second one’s on my list, will maybe check out the first one? Baldurs Gate 3 is on my list given what I’ve heard of it. But it be expensive for something I’m unsure of…
Cult of the Lamb before they remove it from stores next year
They’re not gonna remove it from stores on Jan 1st… that was their social media rep being a little too silly.
Both of those titles are on my list though to get to one day.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this one… hmm…
Steve Jackson’s Sorcery: The Complete Collection is also discounted if you like reading. Also speaking of reading if you haven’t played it yet Disco Elysium
First one ive also never heard of. Elysium is on my backlog… but tbh right now I want something with a little more player-control instead of delving into a political thriller choice-based RPG.. from what I’ve heard of it at least.
