This reviewer stated that the first game was outstanding... I disagree. It was good, a solid 7 for me.

Decker

And.... pre-ordered!

Would have liked a Steelbook, but Best Buy is giving a $10 GC as well as the pre-order bonus content, so that's pretty good. This game is so huge that I prefer having the game on a disc to transfer rather than getting it digitally.

Lots of Great reviews. Listening to Kinda Funny Games podcast and they're gushing about it , giving it 5/5

OldBoy

Geez…147GB for PS5. Yikes.

Decker

Yeah I am going to have to delete or archive like two full games to get this onto my system.

OldBoy

It’s a womp rat/behemoth.

OldBoy

It actually took pretty quick to install and it came up as 148.1GB.

GatorDeb

Huge upside of pc gaming!

OldBoy

Yeah, it’s only 155GB for PC. Score! 😜

GatorDeb

And 300 bucks for 18tb.

Why So Blu?

I have like 350GB left, so once I beat it and send it back, it's getting deleted.

Music

You say that like consoles cannot use external drives to move Series/PS5 games to, to make room...

nickdawgy

Yeah PC gaming is such a chore. I mean video cards alone can cost thousands and you still don’t have the best system. If you want anything half decent you gotta shell out $1200.

After seeing and reading several reviews, I might want to go back and actually finish the first one.......they've been stellar and even mentioning this could/should be in the GOTY contention.....it's been alot of 9's....

The first game was a slog until the last 1/4 or so... then it was pretty excellent. You should definitely finish it.

Decker

I quit it pretty early. Found the early going to be too much of a slog.
I'm fine jumping right in with a full set of skills and with Fast Travel allowed. I will catch up in the story if needed.

nickdawgy

I quit the first one early too. The map was atrocious. But recently I went back and finished it and it was quite enjoyable.

Maxflier

Agreed about the map, it was terrible.

Noonan

Used some PSN credit I had to preorder and preload this last night. I was going to try to wait till after Zelda to play this but as release gets closer, I'm getting much more excited for it. Looking forward to diving in this weekend.

I know I finished the first one - I legit remember very little of it.
Only thing I really recall is , that's about it. LOL.

OldBoy

^ I remember the backtracking, the sometimes awkward platforming, but I did enjoy it and finished it. This sounds like big improvements and I can’t wait. But, I will have to finish Horizon: Zero Dawn prior. It’s just too good to stop.

lopper

Innocently scrolling through Twitter and I likely had what I would consider to be a relatively major story element spoiled, by the official account of all places.

A simple caption on a video thumbnail that I didn't watch from an account I don't follow. Cool cool cool.

I'm hearing that the PC port may be a little rough, even after the day one patch. Low frame rates on PCs with much beefier specs than my own. I think I'll end up picking this up on PS5 after all.

Noonan

Getting sent to the arena was pretty memorable for me. The music was amazing.

Mike86

I want to go back and play the first one at some point. Like I’ve said I enjoyed it but I got to a point where it irritated me and never went back. New one looks cool though.
