What is the combat like? Is it as difficult as Elden Ring or is more chill like Star Wars?
I still have to finish Lies of P and have Lords Of the Fallen and Shadow of the Erdtree on my backlog. But if the combat isn't as frustrating I could get around it.
Also refuse to read any "critic" reviews, they've completely lost my interest in 2024.

Probably less annoying mobs / mini-bosses though. IDK about the upgrade system, if there's fast travel, if there's puzzles and hidden chit to explore/do.

Honestly the real crux of my original post is because I literally don't know what a "good" score for a game is.
Ghost of Tsushima: 83 - Game of the Year contender, incredible game
Starfield: 83 - Absolute flop, couldn't be worse.
Wukong: 82 - Amazing game, just slightly bugged and suffers from performance issues.
Halo: Infinite: 87 - absolute slop, this effectively kills the Halo franchise. They should have never launched this game.
Stray: 83 - 3 hour long cat "platformer" with automated platforming – GAME OF THE YEAR NOMINEEE
Lies of P: 80 - "best souls adjacent since Bloodborne"
You can chalk it up to "expectations" if you want but the REAL issue with game scores is that there is very little consistency between score and quality (apparently) and evidently anything under 10 is trash, but also at the same time it's not. Games media and Games Twitter have bastardized thr point of game reviews beyond comprehension.
I think it's safe to say any games from 82-86ish are probably really solid games with a couple of glaring issues. But we can't take these scores objectively anymore because of "expectations" or some other nonsense. It just doesn't make sense anymore.

It is always the first game I can think of where critics didn't give the credit it deserved. The game turned out to be maybe the best survival horror ever.

Chit looked fuking amazing, truly next gen and even the story got me intrigued. Gameplay looks more like GOW Ragnarok than Elden Ring.
I'm playing another game now, so don't wanna switch plus I'm thinking I could try to hold till the PS5 pro is out but I'm seriously tempted.

But I think I just finished doing all those reflection side missions and unknown locations. So might not need to see his ass again.
Ghost of sushima is one of the greatest games ever made. I am
Impressed by it. End of act 3. But I read the ps5 version has a 4th. The difficulty kicks up a lot as you progress.

Fkn brootal, pressing every single button hurt me emotionally. I remember you and I had a big back and forth on this, good times.
Ghost of Tsushima is such an amazing game. Are there things that can improve? Of course, it's a new IP from a small team of talented devs.
They fkn nailed the important parts though.
@Deathstroke why are you still on PS4 brah, the new version with expansion is amazing. I want a next playthrough so bad but I'm holding out on everything till the PS5 Pro.
