When we gonna get a mod to make it a good game?
Remove the stretches of nothing happening, shut Atreus and mimir up during combat and puzzles, forever and so on
Perhaps just go play a different game, it’s clearly not for you.
His-Her complaint seems to be somewhat popular, lots of obligatory hand-holding is present when options that turned it off would be as simple as a few lines of code, and they ruin the slow stages that require thinking or the fast action ones.
I think it’s cool that something like this is getting attention, but if every single “games journalist” is gonna write about it Sony is going to have to file a lawsuit against them
Sony is gonna go after that creator, there’s no way they can hold to maintain it once Sony kicks into full corporate mode.
I’m not a fan of the required accounts, but I feel like people are making such an enormous deal out of it as if they’re being asked to sign a pact with the devil and hand over a liver and kidney.
Just don’t buy the game and move on, financial damage hurts more than screaming murder and then proceed to walk into the knife anyway.
I disagree with all the tracking companies are forcing on us. While some of it is necessary and can be very beneficial that isn’t how our data is largely being used. With that I just don’t buy Sony, Ubisoft, or other companies products any longer. I do miss out on playing some games my friends are all talking about but I do not cave just to be in the hype.
Treat these companies like that crazy ex. You know they are bad for you and what you are signing up for if you keep coming back.
Last bit is what they are potentially going to do with that data in the future. If they can build your online profile tailored to you they are going to milk you in ways you can’t even fathom. Creating a reason to get you to part with more money. This is not a future I believe any gamer wants when the games are made to make you pay more for the experience. Before anyone says it isn’t like that, tell it to all the AI companies scrapping pre-AI data now. We aren’t making a deal with the devil, we are helping them create the devil.
I think it’s because PSN isn’t available in a number of countries, so it’s an arbitrary obstacle to an otherwise fully functional game that doesn’t and shouldn’t need an account. Requiring external accounts to play a game is nothing new, but I’m happy to see people reaching their threshold for these ridiculous practices and openly complaining. If people didn’t complain and simply didn’t buy the game, how would Sony know why people aren’t buying it?
Ideally, Sony would handle the legal hurdles needed to allow PSN in multiple countries. But I imagine, as the publishers have invested tons of money into producing those singleplayer games, part of what they want in return is investment into the “PlayStation ecosystem”. Much like how Microsoft doesn’t care if people play their games on an Xbox, they just want an account.
Basically, I don’t think Sony is really in the business of putting down huge financial risks just to get the $60 entry tag of the rare singleplayer game they put out. Those games are meant to get you buying other Sony content as well.
Fair enough for countries that don’t have PSN. But do they also not have access to the game on PlayStation consoles then?
I’m also unsure if availability is because of Sony or because of country restrictions their governments have set up.
And as usual people only downvote instead of engaging in discussion and giving answers 🙄
People have already engaged. There’s nothing left to say to this other than I wholeheartedly disagree and this is a bigger deal than you’re making it out to be.
What if they were to, say, upload it to GitHub, and make sure as many copies of the mod got out as possible, so that if it does get taken down someone else can repost the branch and repeat the whole process over again
The problem is that the requirement to have an account is in fine print most people would never read. Therefore you might accidentally buy a game without knowing you need it and can’t just “not buy the game and move on.” I’m fucking sick of having to create an account with every goddamn game company out there to play single player games on a PS5 or on Steam.
I thought it was pretty clear on Steam, there’s a highlighted message about it right above the button to purchase the game.
I don’t approve of it, but it’s not like they’re hiding it.
Therefore you might accidentally buy a game without knowing you need it and can’t just "not buy the game and move
Launch the game, see that it requires a sign in, refund the game because it doesn’t have over 2 hours of play time.
I couldn’t find that option when I bought this game on PS5 last year or whenever it came out.
they can’t if they distribute the mod as a patch, “for educational purposes”
The patch does not contain anything proprietary.
