Exactly
But I suppose if the only game on the system that interests you is Astro's Playroom, probably best to wait. Not that it's a bad game but come on.
It's a standard console release tbh. One excellent exclusive (Demon souls), flanked by a handful of other decent exclusives (Spiderman: MM, Sackboy, Astros etc).
Ignoring the scalping issue, its been as good a console release as any. But like any other console release, there shouldn't be rush to procure one at the start. I'm pretty happy with mine, but could have easily waited in hindsight.
It's never a bad idea to wait at launch. It's not exactly a necessity. This is probably the first time I've got a console at launch....Exactly

Going from a launch PS4 it is a nice change - completely silent, very quick to load stuff, games look better for the most part... and that PS+ Collection. Really enjoying going through the games I haven't played before.
I can't get enough of Hollow Knight
Kinda sad, all that power and I'm playing a side scroller...

Might give that a go.I can't get enough of Hollow Knight

I just can't get into Bloodborne. Tried before on the PS4 and today again on PS5. Am I dead inside?
Easy to say when you don't have one.
Demons Souls and Astro have been as good a start to a new console as any I can remember.
I'm playing binding of isaac more than any other game. I feel similar to you that I'm wasting all that power, but then again, BOI is just such a fun challenge, I can't get enough of itI can't get enough of Hollow Knight

It’s spot on tbf! When a console first comes out you really don’t need it and there are teething problems that I hope get sorted out soon enough! I’m personally just loving the plus collection, it’s a great console though I’m loving it.
Brother in laws just went pop. Burning smell and blew the trip on the house .
.Saw the same 2 discounted on Amazon. Watchdogs looks like it could be fun to be honest so I’m torn between getting that or Demon’s Souls (never played a souls game).
It's crazy how much better Destiny feels on PS5 than PS4. It's a completely different experience
Killzone is supposedly the biggest leap of them all?
It’s one of the best games of the decade.I can't get enough of Hollow Knight

I was starting to think he wasn't going to make a PS5 versionIs Ghost of Tsushima really that good?
I've heard its gorgeous, but from gameplay perspective I've heard its also a bit shallow. Honestly I'm just fatigued by the tedious nature of modern open world games, especially of the Ubisoft mould which scatter the map with a whole bunch of repetitive, shallow objectives. If thats also the case with GoT then I'm not sure I have the patience to bother.

No.
Honestly if the bolded bit is true, I wouldn't bother. I gave up on it half way through. Beautiful looking game but the world is very samey, the story and main character are dull, it's full of annoying fetch quests like you mentioned that are constantly drilled into your face so you don't even feel like you can just go and do the main quest or explore the world yourself. The combat is fun to a point but even that gets boring after a while.
If you're fatigued by those games it's unlikely to be much different for you. Why not try something completely different like Return of the Obra Dinn? That game is the opposite of shallow objectives scattered around the map.
I feared this would be the case. Thanks, I'll definitely give this one a miss then.
Luckily I still have Demon Souls to complete, so that should tide me over nicely until Yakuza: Like a Dragon comes to the PS5.
That Bugnsax migh be one of the shittest things I've ever played. Instant delete.
Starting to get into Bloodborne now even though I've absolutely no idea where I'm going or what I'm supposed to be doing. How do you even level up?

I remember when Elvis was pretending this looked really good
Bugsnax was loads of fun! Take that back.
I was gutted at first i missed out on one but Valhalla has been keeping me going on my ps4. I honestly don't feel like I've missed out on much at all but I'm nearing the end of that game now so the need for a ps5 will grow again.
You’ve hammered that. I might go back to it while I wait for Cyberpunk next gen update

Any word on a slim version yet?
Eh? Its been out for all of a month. I wouldn't expect any new variant model for at least two years.
Just posted in the valhalla thread, I've done 115 hours, the story is completed and I have 3 trophies left for the Platinum. Its been a long slog but I've really enjoyed the game, although it is too long and dragged out for sure.
Spend Blood Echoes. But you level up in the dream world (which you access through a lamp) but you need to have gained at least one insight to start levelling up.
How far are you? Did you beat the first boss?
Exactly thisI don't think so. Been past the ogre banging on the door. Found what appeared to be a shortcut into a building with some guy in a cloak who was chatting shit. And that's about it. Generally just been circling around the town killing people.
Once you encounter a boss, you'll get insight. Look at the little eye icon in the top right corner. It says zero now but meeting a boss will increase it (you don't have to kill the boss, you can save and quit right after going through the fog gate).

Once you have insight, go back to the Hunter's Dream, the place where you got your first weapon. You'll be able to talk to... someone.
(you can also get insight by consuming a Madman's Knowledge, you can find those throughout the world.)
Ok that makes more sense. I'll crack on later. Thankyou kindly.
