I loved this so much I can't wait to do it again. So many great surprises and I don't want it to end. Was I the only one thinking the stranger was probably a good guy testing us to see if we were worthy or something? I don't know why but I was waiting for the big reveal.

This. It's moving me possibly more than the visuals (which are jaw-dropping).

This game is absolutely worthy of all the hype it has received and will continue to get.

A useful tip I just figured out: you can turn off rage the same way you turn it on and you can save what you have left. You don't have to let it run out.

This game is gonna make me set up the PS4 in a different room, so I can play it while my son plays Fortnite on Xbox.

I also recommend expensive headphones. The sound is phenomenal. I'm so depressed I'm not playing it right now. Lonnnnnng Munndddayyy

The use of HDR is nice in this game. I'm playing on Resolution mode on the Pro and have had very little framerate drops. Looks and runs like a dream minus the fan making it sound like the PS4 is ready for liftoff.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to hooking it up to the 4K Samsung in our living room.

We normally game on a projector, which is cool, but the graphics get dumbed down in the up-converting the projector does.

Do you have any lag issues with your projector?

It can be. I haven't played on a projector in quite awhile, but I remember having issues with them back in my Smash Bros./Rock Band days.

I adore the HUD in this game. More games should adopt the HUD that disappears when you are just exploring.

Everything is so polished. Still, my one and only complaint is how there are only 3 speeds at which to move: Slow walk, light jog, full speed run.

That's pretty common in third person games such as this. I like how he runs with some weight.

Is there a reason for this? Why not have more options? I really would love to be able to move at a slightly faster walk speed.

Probably combat/balancing reasons.

Makes sense, kinda. But I wonder why they couldn't just switch it around depending on whether or not you're in combat mode.

Would get tricky with animations and such. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, just not worth the resources and time to do it.
