I haven’t read the reviews in details, but it seems to be getting some really good scores. So, great news for people like me, who never played the original.

This looks pretty good. Though, top down view, so some people won’t like it.

Particular Problem with Rest Mode

So I’ve recently started to replay Watch_Dogs (digital version) on PS5 and oddly enough, it’s the only game that won’t suspend in rest mode. The console itself has to tell me it won’t keep the game open and it’ll close in 30 seconds. I’ve played both PS4/5 and use both digital and physical copies between my library....

So, my original guess was since Watch Dogs is an old game, they are probably doing something that breaks the PS5’s suspend feature.

A quick search online shows that other people have the issue too.

  • One case suggests quitting to main menu and then going to rest mode works. Not the best solution since you have to save and quite the game, but at least you don’t have to load the game again.
  • Another site mentions that it was working with Watch Dogs, but then they started Assassin’s Creed Unity, which has issue with this feature, and after that Watch Dogs has stopped suspending too. No idea why Unity has the issue though, but that could be back to my original point. Old game, with some feature / bug breaking the feature.

Well, PS5 has made the feature so that it should work with older games too, but sometimes games are programmed in a way that it doesn’t work.

For instance, PS5 is compatible with all PS4 games, except for like 10 or 12 of them, and those game doesn’t have anything obviously unique that would cause the issue, but they are probably using some internal system that causes them to not work. Probably a same thing with AC Unity and Watch Dogs.

Yeah, I used to have very small font, to get maximum use of the screen, now I have notched it pretty high, so everything is much easier on the eye.

Yeah, I wasn’t interested in the game much, but then I saw SwitchUp’s review and got a bit interested, but then when explained the story mode, lost the interest again.

Have fun with Gravity Circuit and TotK!

There’s nothing wrong with dropping a game you don’t feel like playing. You can always get back to it later if you feel like it, or just drop it permanently.

Play what you feel like, and have fun!

How long did it take you to beat Little Kitty, Big City? It looks really fun.

How are you liking Drainus compared to Lodoss War and Touhou? I know they are different genres, but still.

Well, that’s a good thing, I like it when I get to use different party members, but only if they were leveling up with me. If they weren’t, then that’s just annoying.

Now you have made me curious which one is it, that you are saving for last. If I am not mistaken, you have already done Bat girl and Cat woman. So that covers all the “good” female characters, that leaves Harley Quinn or maybe Poison Ivy, but that’s just the characters I can think of on top of my head, could be some obscure character like Azrael too…

Good luck with Johto!

I love indies, would love to hear about the games you play, and how you liked them.

Never heard of Backpack Battles (at least not that I recall), but Potion Craft is in my wish list.

Oooh, nice! Which one? And on which platform?

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That sounds pretty neat. Would love to see your island when it’s ready!

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

Haha, yeah, if real life could be like video games, Story of Seasons isn’t a bad game to choose. Same with most other cozy / farming games.

Nice! I have only played the 3rd one. Looking forward to playing the remaster of 2nd. Hope they remaster / remake the first one too.

Well, that’s how it goes when you have multiple platforms to play games on. My PS5 didn’t get much use this year, before I started Kingdom Come Deliverance, similarly, there was a time I didn’t play much Switch last year. And that’s with just two platforms.

Is there anything coming up on Switch that has caught your interest? Or any backlog to go through? Or you are mostly done with it, at least until the June Direct?

Ah, I have heard pretty good things about it. Not much of a racing game fan, but this is on my list to try.
