It's sounding good! Be careful with the digital version. Sony's new DRM seems extra shitty.

How so? I haven't heard anything about the new policy.

False alarm.

Per Sony: “Players can continue to access and play their purchased games as usual. A one-time online check is required to confirm the game's license, after which no further check-ins are required.”

This took way too long for Sony to comment.

Beat the first boss about 2 hours into the game. Still digging into the mechanics and weapons, but really liking the gameplay feel and world. Housemarque nails the "flow state" like few others.

Is this different enough from Returnal to recommend? Considering just replaying that game instead

They're certainly similar. The shield mechanic is quite different and there is an upgradable skill tree that carries over from run to run in this one. I'd say you can wait for the inevitable sale.

Four bosses down and this is really opening up. It's like Returnal meets Doom. The rogue-like elements have been stripped down to just a few options while in a run, but the modifiers beforehand can add some variety and strategy.

Sony really needs a good one here. I'm expecting a few major announcements.

Some theaters are hosting this. The last time a State of Play was in theaters, some of the games featured included: TLoU2, Spiderman, Ghost of Tsushima, Control, Death Stranding, RE2 Remake, Nioh 2. In hindsight, that was an absolute banger.

Their major studios will probably show:
Santa Monica - God of War (the story and time travel implementation sounds absolutely awesome, if true)
Naughty Dog - Intergalactic
Insomniac - Wolverine
Guerrilla Games - A non mainline Horizon game that no one's looking forward to.
Sucker Punch - Nothing
Housemarque - Nothing
Media Molecule - New IP

I'm not sure what to expect from major third parties. Control Resonant? Witcher 4? Something from Konami?

Wow, didn't realize that....fully agree Sony needs a good one. Notice that last banger largely driven by 3rd person action titles, hoping for the same on the 2nd
