saving my second playthrough for ps5 is finally working out! unless it’s a full priced release with no upgrade, which is what i’m actually expecting

O_i@lemmy.world on 17 Nov 2023 10:14 next collapse

Is it not available? I read playing it on ps5 auto updates to ps5 version

I think this is talking about a remastered version. I have the game just haven’t had the time to play it.

Kusimulkku@lemm.ee on 17 Nov 2023 12:58 next collapse

Remastering it already lol

O_i@lemmy.world on 18 Nov 2023 18:34 collapse

Yeah word is it’s a remastered and you can upgrade for extra stuff too

Not sure I get what a PS5 version would bring without some pretty serious tech upgrades such as Ray Tracing. There’s already a ps5 patch that enables 60 fps which is normally my personal “requirement” for new versions on cross gen games so unless this is a major uplift then I’ll pass.

Well of course, just look at Modern Warfare 3 and they’re $70 DLC that people actually paid for.

rambaroo@lemmy.world on 17 Nov 2023 12:21 next collapse

Wtf is this? The game was already patched and enhanced for PS5.

paultimate14@lemmy.world on 17 Nov 2023 13:12 next collapse

I don’t mind older games getting love on new platforms. But… This is already a late PS4 game with a PS5 enhancement.

Maybe it’s something as simple as just a physical PS5-only version? I have not seen any “Greatest Hits” reprints of PS5 games yet. Usually they start doing that ~2 years after a console release, so it’s past due for the PS5. So my speculation would be that they are going to announce that at the game awards, and it’s going to include some PS5 reprints of other PS4 games with PS5 enhancement. Maybe Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War (2018), etc.

If this inolvrs putting in serious dev work to remake a 3 year old game, I’d have to question whether those resources would have been better spent elsewhere. Heck, even another, older, Naughty Dog game. The Crash N Sane and Spyro Reignited trilogies were pretty successful endeavors from Activision, and Sony has Bluepoiny just for doing that kind of stuff. Where are the Jak and Daxter remakes? Ratchet and Clank 1 was kind-of remade-ish to go along with the movie release back in 2016, but where are the rest of the R&C re-makes? They did Shadow of the Colossus: where is ICO?

PS4 game? It was a PS3 game!

Zahille7@lemmy.world on 17 Nov 2023 14:06 collapse

I don’t have a PS5, but I’d seriously consider it (even moreso after Spider-Man 2) if they made a Jak & Daxter and Sly Cooper Remastered collections.

I know there was the PS3 Sly Cooper game(s), but still.

For me it’s the greatest game ever (or maybe one of them), but I ain’t gonna buy it again.

It already looks and feels so amazing.

At this point I feel like Todd Howard moonlights at Naughty Dog.

QubaXR@lemmy.world on 18 Nov 2023 02:18 next collapse

Lol my thoughts exactly. Last of us is the new Skyrim.

Katana314@lemmy.world on 19 Nov 2023 03:08 collapse

We here at Naughty Dog respect that, though they are great games, our fans have felt some exhaustion at seeing only remasters of Naughty Dog’s old games. Hence, we are proud to announce our newest project: Skyrim Remastered.

Nice, this all but guarantees a PC release, which is great, I enjoyed my time with TLOU2 but it was so marred by the experience on console
