That is basically what it comes down to these days. Those who have been into gaming the longest, with the most refined taste, are the most likely to be critical of today's gaming scene. There's a good reason why the type of people who are happiest with today's gaming scene tend to be the Fortnite playing zoomer crowd and fanboys who get excited to consume latest hyped product.

High on life may not be the best game ever made but I'd take it over anything Sony put out this gen 10x over

Classic fun video game
0 inclusion / forced agendas
No misery simulator trying to win a video game Oscar

Just a simple fun video game that doesn't take itself seriously. Sonycels can't understand video games without forced inclusions and agenda pushing.

To put it simply high on life is far too straight for the Sony ****s.

You sipping on that Jay-Koolaid?


Who was Helldivers for a fun game that doesnt take itself seriously.

And who said you still can't enjoy a game despite it having stupid forced agendas? I know you have some weird hate boner for spiderman 2 but all the agenda aside, it's still a fun game.

Helldivers is great. Helldivers is also a complete 180 from sony's usual exclusives in almost every aspect

Spiderman 2 was really fun. FF Rebirth looks like it's gonna be fun as fuk from the little I played at the start. Really excited to play it.

Imagine thinking High on Weed was so much better than acclaimed Sony games when all it does is tell a bunch of Rick & Morty jokes that only druggies find funny when the room is spinning.

That game came and went like a wet fart meanwhile after 4 years, PC players are creaming their boxers to spend $60 to play Ghost of Tsushima. And fuking rightfully so.

I must have missed out on the memo where it was such an amazing game.


- Trash dialogue that's cringe as hell, but apparently it's hilarious and I'm someone that will take dumb humor.
- Boring, uninspired and the most basic gameplay where all you do is pewpewpew shoot at braindead enemies.
- Level design is ass.


Must have gotten all that hype because it was initially an "xbox exclusive" and on muh gamepass lol... The South Park games are so much better and completely mog this game in humor. Hell even Final Fantasy 7 rebirth has better humor.

Damn lol, I didn't play it. I watched a little bit of a playthrough and by the time the guy was taken away from his village and ended up on the alien planet I had to turn it off. Humor was cringe as hell and the gameplay was super basic. I'm sure Rebirth has far more humor, it's even there a little in Remake when you get to Wall Market.

Lemme know which single player games outside of skyrim aren't flavor of the week games lmaooooo

Literally all the same, player counts drop to chit within a month when people beat the game and move on.

Idk why you act like Sony games are somehow any different

What are you even trying to argue for here.. That no game retained players like that only one game in all of gaming? Holy brainrot batman. Well damn I guess single player games should just never exist and each year the whole gaming industry comes together to update Skyrim.

The point of a single player game is that the story ends at some point and most people move on. Your brain has completely rotted thinking each game must be some sweaty adrenaline pumping experience that you have to keep playing for the next decade.

Don't have a horse in this race, but saying FF7 has more humor than High on Life is a pretty ridiculous take.

It's one thing when Ex-boxcels say that sony games aren't their taste, but completely chitting on sony games while praising high on life in the same breath as some groundbreaking and amazing game is just fukkin hilarious. It's obvious they're just scraping at the bottom of the barrel here.

I would have tolerated the crappy dialogue if the gameplay was good, but that was the reason why I dropped it. The gameplay was boring as hell.

Then why call something flavor of the week as if it doesn't also apply to Sony games?

What makes a Sony game different, because 6 months after release a bunch of purple haired sweet babies give it some awards at a show? Lmao

Yeah but this is where you misinterpret me, I can't speak for Jay cause he's not rational.

I have never praised high on life as groundbreaking, or cutting edge, nothing of the sort. My initial review of the game was brutally honest.

I've praised it for being simple, fun, and not taking itself seriously. That's what I like in video games. I am not interested in some ultra deep story that is written with intent to win game awards.

Rebith has some legit funny moments and the humor was done far better than high on life.

Because high on drugs came and went like a wet fart.

How bout you ask 100 gamers the name of the high on life protag vs Ghost of Tsushima. You'll get your answer when it comes to the difference in engagement and longevity.

Man no offense to Beary here but the "humor" in high on life was cringe as hell to me. It became annoying and jarring. It really is a different type of humor for sure that just appeals to a certain type of person. That's why I only ever watched maybe a single episode of Rick and Morty with a straight face thru the whole thing and never thought about it again.

Not you or Bongo's style and that's fine. I enjoyed it. I wouldn't say it was anything special tho. 7/10 or so.

Exactly. I had fun playing High on Life, and that is what video games are all about. Having fun.

Some of ya'll get way too pretentious and uppity about video gaming.

Don't you guys get that way about Spiderman 2 when the guys who play it all say it was fun? I don't think I beat a game that fast since I was a teen. Besides a couple odd missions the rest of the game was a blast to play.

Don't want you to go for anything. The point is you made a statement about High on Life being unfairly criticized since being fun is the most important thing but you would never apply that same logic to Spiderman 2. It's a double standard just because one is made my your favorite company and one is by the "enemy".

Yeah, it was the strongest 6/10 game for me personally. Probably 5 if I want to be super harsh, but it was extremely mid.
