For sure. I'm hoping the expansion DLC is 7-10 hours or so. Would make the price tag worth it.
I thought I read that it was comparable to UC Lost Legacy or Miles Morales, both were about 10 hours depending on difficulty and completion level. I'm buying for sure, easily one of the best games last year.
Another comp could Infamous: First Light. All good games, worth the price.
GoT DLC is 8 - 10 hours according to reviews.

Reading that the visual upgrades between the PS5 patch of the PS4 version and the new PS5 version of the game are not all that big. This whole thing is kind of convoluted.

I never got around to the Legends mode, but I hear it is quite good.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting a big visual bump on this one. I expect it to be incrementally better across the board though.

Is Legends mode online co-op?

My predictions for PS Event:

- God of War trailer (no release date/window)
- Dreams - PS5 version (maybe free?)
- Gran Turismo gameplay trailer
- Last of Us Part Two Director's Cut with Factions multiplayer mode
- Indie montage
- Infamous Remake/Remaster
- Final Fantasy VII Remake Part Two trailer
- Show ends with reveal of Bluepoint's remake of Metal Gear Solid

I saw another gaming spot predict the Metal Gear remake. I'll shit if we get that, would be pretty exciting.

Definitely not expecting a GoW release date but I expect more Horizon and GT gameplay, along with that piece of shit looking game Deathloop.

Will probably see Far Cry 6 release trailer and something else on Dying Light 2. Anyone ever played the first Dying Light? I haven't, but the sequel and trailers look good.

I also saw that an Alan Wake remaster (from 2010, overshadowed back in the day by release of RDR) is coming out in a month.

I think we'll see more GTAV expanded footage (who cares?) and possibly news about the remastered GTAIII-San Andreas that's rumored of late.

??? I think Deathloop looks awesome. Did you ever play Dishonored?

Some incredible level design and a gameplay loop (sorry) that really encourages experimentation and creativity. Arcane is very good at what they do.

I thought Dishonored was very overrated. I can't believe it was game of the year by many outlets. I'll probably skip Deathloop.

And some truly excellent reviews are making me reconsider. But since it's a 10 to 20 hour game, I'll probably wait for a price drop.

Has anyone attempted upgrading their PS5 SSD to one with more capacity? There are many compatible, but Sony doesn't seem to be getting behind/marketing one in particular which is kind of disappointing. Was thinking of buying the Seagate 530 FireCuda 2TB model once it's back in stock. Not cheap...

I have an external hard drive. Pretty easy to just move PS5 games back and forth between that and the SSD after the update to allow it. A much cheaper solution.

Seems like SSDs are still pretty expensive.

Yeah been using my 2TB external, but even that's starting to fill up! The price is not very appealing so may hold off on that for now, would also like to see more feedback from the field before I start cracking the box open.

Kena: Bridge of Spirts is VERY good. Totally worth your $40, especially considering you would be supporting a brand new production company that is assuredly going to make future bangers.

Plenty of youtube reviews out there, and they're all pretty much spot on (I'll always endorse Gameranx Before You Buy series), so bottom line if you like these types of games you will love Kena. Truely feels like next gen purely from a graphic standpoint - and loading time.

Love this game
