The Outriders demo release times have been revealed! Devs confirm Square Enix account gives free emote, "no plans" for cross-progression, and release full FAQ.

Hyped for this one. Please be good.

excaliburps1205d ago

Same. Unlike Avengers, People Can Fly are experienced with MP games and shooters. That said, Square Enix's marketing is just bad...

InUrFoxHole1205d ago

I'm actually enjoying the Avengers. It's a good start. Needs some improvements but not horrible imo.

@InUrFoxHole:

Yep. I don't see it as "trash" as well. I mean, it needs enemy variety and other content, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. Most of the bad news from it stems from the pre-order stuff and whatnot.

I'm really hopeful for Outriders, though if you didn't know about it, you won't know a thing since Square's marketing is just doodoo. It's out in April and things are still quiet. They can learn a thing or two from Acti marketing (marketing not how it's run).

The 7 Best Co-op Games on PS5

There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.

For coop, get a used switch instead

jznrpg147d ago

I own a Switch and have never played co-op on it. I do play Elden Ring , Demons Souls and some other co/op games with my friends on PS5. Baldurs Gate 3 is the next game I’ll play co-op. Can’t do that on a Switch

Cacabunga147d ago

I was thinking for couch casual immediate fun.. not online coop games that require some adaptation.

played it..de-installed it after 30 minutes.

Lighter9718d ago

I got pretty far, and just stopped caring. I uninstalled it as well.

Profchaos718d ago

It's extremely generic. It's not bad but it reminds me of the period between 2007 and 2009 where gears introduced cover shooters so almost everyone went out and made a unreal engine 3 cover shooter.
It feels like that to destiny

IanTH718d ago (Edited 718d ago )

For some it is. At launch, I expect more people felt that way. It also had tons of technical issues back then, at least on PC. I tried it after the New Horizons expansion later last year. I found the campaign enjoyable enough, even if not an amazing one. The gameplay was pretty fun, the story was pretty pants (but how many games can say otherwise lol). Still had some bugs even then, though.

I've no idea what is in the newest expansion, but if it ever piqued your interest, I'd suggest giving it a shot. It might give you 20-30 hours of fun before it fizzles out. Maybe I'll look into this expansion, see what's what.

MadLad718d ago (Edited 718d ago )

I'm having fun with it.
Originally avoided it having heard of the issues around launch.
It has been sitting on Gamepass so finally downloading it the other day.
I'm about 3 hours in, have my Trickster class at level ten, and it's a pretty good time.

Don't know if I'll end up beating it or not, but I'd give it a solid 8 so far, personally.

Livingthedream718d ago

Nah it’s fun, first 30 minutes ain’t enough. Give it a go!

Terry_B718d ago

Bad...nah. Its simply super boring

I played through the entire campaign. It was very generic. The story was mediocre and the technical issues on PC were pretty bad. They patched it up quite a bit. It plays better now. I can say the only reason why I enjoyed it was because I missed Division 2-type gameplay but was was tired of running around the same areas in New York. The endgame is just an enemy hitpoint multiplier where a tiny creature has 20,000 HP. It's too bullet-spongy.

Call me when it's free to keep.
