Sony really did a terrible job advertising this game. I feel like so many people went into this expecting some generic third person shooter with random upgrades along the way and got thrown off when the roguelike elements/difficulty were introduced to them. I don’t really blame them cuz all the trailers and footage didn’t really do a deep dive into the core gameplay elements until recently, unless I missed something. Game is still complete fire to me tho cuz I love these type of games.

Wym they’ve done many showcases in the gameplay and we’re very clear with the rogue like elements. Pretty sure they specifically said that since the reveal. I usually don’t see any news or touch base with games after the initial showcase and I knew it was a rougelike from the jump.

Unless you’re specifically talking about commercial media marketing

Idk I just feel like a ton of people didn’t know what they were getting into in terms of the difficulty or gameplay elements until the week of launch. Maybe I wasn’t paying attention to the marketing properly but from what I saw there wasn’t a whole lot of discussion on the roguelite elements.

kinda agree. wasn't aware it was a roguelike until a week and a half ago

then again, wasn't paying a ton of attention whenever they showed it at the presentations, but was still unaware of that fact the entire time. did they ever explicitly state it was a roguelite at any of those events?

since when do trailers do “deep dives into core gameplay mechanics”???lmfaooo sounds like a bunch of uninformed people shouldn’t have bought a game they knew nothing about

Not necessarily trailers but just more information in general. Like I said I might have just missed all the info somehow. Again I’m not even dogging on the game I’m loving it so far, def a GOTY contender for me rn.

I feel like they did enough promoting that this is a roguelike game.

Anyone that bought the game thinking otherwise can only blame themselves tbh

I had no idea what roguelike meant and this is breaking my soul

Just had my game crash right before the boss. Had a good ass loadout too smh.

This new update broke more than it helped.

And now I'm locked in the starting room

Thought it was pretty obvious what kind of game this was

I mean half of this games hype is that it was a AAA rougelike

Clearly a lot of people didn’t know

yeah bc they just bought the game bc it was a ps5 game that got good reviews or bought it on release bc it was just something new to play

watch the announcement trailer lol. the whole story is based around the mechanic

if you did an ounce of research or paid attention to the trailers you would know what the game was supposed to be

Ay I knew what I was getting myself into. I’m just saying some others didn’t and I find it funny how now there’s this massive demand for save features lol.

finally made it to biome 3 boss, died on phase 2 oop

this game is hella addictive man. time fliessss by

had to turn off haptics while playing this. shame because it's really well implemented, i just can't stand using it

I like the controller sounds tho

also the subtle effects like when it rains

i'm dumb as hell and meant adaptive triggers

haptics too good

just did the same myself. getting easier and easier

ps5 crashed going into rest mode again lol goodbye run

biome 4 a b**** the f*** man makes 3 look easy af

i take it back y’all this game seems fun, wish i had a PS5 for it.

fucc it tho RE8 tomorrow night
