all they had to do was not force accounts. then they could join this club:
Do you own only 2 skyrims? That’s rookie numbers!
I have 4 and haven’t even played it yet!
That’s actually true… I had it for 360 and forgot about it so bought it again for ps3 and promptly forgot about it, then got a copy for ps4 from a friend… Played a bit, but it’s not the same as playing on PC, which is how I played morrowind and oblivion so never got into it, then I bought the ps4 vr version because it seemed like it was the perfect type of game for VR, being first person and all… nope that was a mistake, the texture in vr version makes me seriously motion sick… can’t get past the intro scene.
I’ll probably pirate a pc version at some point… I’ve paid for it enough to not feel at all bad doing that (not that I would anyway). It’s just not great on console.
Kinda same. I do have it on switch and 360 but those are my pirated copies and you couldn’t even apply the unofficial patch so I never ended up playing them much. I bought the pc version then was later gifted SE, and ended up starting this regretful and hellish dupe game achievement quest as a joke with the friends that got me the game since it turned out I had several duplicates. -17/10 Would not recommend.
When you say dupe game achievements, do you mean you had to get all the achievements on the same game multiple times? That sounds hellish, if so… but I’m a bit curious…
I have bought a few duplicates over the years, but started using gameye to prevent duplicate purchases (I only do physical games, mostly used, so it helps a ton)
yeah the same game twice. generally a remaster or goty/special edition/etc.
It went something like: friend: hey grass I got you a game! me: oh cool thanks. *redeems game without thinking… me: wait I already have this friend: its the special edition. me: but I’ll have to get the achievements a second time. friend: you won’t do that, your only all achievement game is mw2.
then other friends got me more duplicates because they knew I would be an idiot and do it repeatedly to ‘prove a point’. In the end a miserable time. The easiest were the souls games because once you learn the controls they are all the same, apart from the different enemy placements in ds2. hardest was probably between the older version of kingdom or old bioshock 2 due to buggy achievements and the ungodly amount of time doing the exact same thing until it worked
😂 that sounds horrible.
I’m not super into frustration, and it’s gotta be a good game for me to replay it… I have -so many- options…
But that does sound like the sort of spiteful thing I’d do… like I can’t even tell you how many new kongregate accounts I made back in the day so I could play the same games over again and get all the achievements… and if you can get them once it tends to be easier the second time…
Weird flex, but okay.
You just had to brag about your achievements.
it was more about showcasing my mental illness and how I can’t help punishing myself by playing games like old kingdom or old bioshock, or both borderlands. I also tried to do ori but now I have work burnout and gaming burnout. I wouldn’t actually feel inclined to double zero dawn as the game really is enough of a slog just to complete the main story and I really really don’t want to suffer any more.
Yeah, <hobby> burnout suck too.
Nothing of value was lost.
It’s just ubisoft the game but with robo dinos.
All sony games are the same. Ghost of tduchima bored me in less than 10h.
Good thing I have the GOG offline installer already downloaded.
If you already bought you can still download it can’t you? I have a bunch of other delisted games that still work fine
I bloody hope so, I added it to the list of games I’ve purchased on steam but never played last week
Well, I can play the delisted original aoe2 and that’s been delisted for a long time, so I’m sure you’ll be fine.
And you can actually still buy it there. Though for the now increased price.
I have it too, and I was patiently waiting for Forbidden West to show up on GOG too, guess it’s not gonna happen now, yo ho ho?
Delisting it just means it isn’t being sold to new customers.
But it is, as a bundle.
They’re having one HZD listing, for both copies If you buy it in 6 months you can still play the original release with no PSN and no remake changes, they just package the remake with it now on the store.
This original was already a privacy nightmare, even on GOG, which is why I was hesitant to buy it. Looks like I’m definitely pirating it now if I wanna play it. But hey, at least now we know why sony insisted on “remastering” it.

Sad, I like them before
Like my exes
You forgot Nintendo.
And Microsoft for that matter.
And Epic Games

And SquirrelSoft
Even if I was a bazillionaire, I’d still be pirating Sony games out of principle
Along with everything else, I find it so annoying that these games that totally didn’t need a remaster get one, and so many great older games just begging for a remaster that woud rake in cash dont get one.
Concord remaster when?
Concord merch?
Because those need work. These are easy to slightly polish up and push as new game.
Ps5 has literally only one new exclusive after all these years?
It has more than one… But it is incredibly lacking still.
But it got Astrobot, Destruction All-stars are both new IPs. There is also Spider-Man 2 and
Ratchet and Clank Rift Apartfor first party. And you can throw in Stella Blade and FF7 Rebirth for now as well.I believe everything else is remakes or not exclusive to the PS5.
Edit - ohhh scratch Ratchet and Clank off as well, that’s on PC. I thought it was the PS4 one that came to PC, but it is Rift Apart.
Spiderman was ps4 too no?
It’s because those remakes take time to do a proper remake. I get the feeling Sony needed something fast for this one and Guerilla was able to turn it around without much effort on their part, at least compared to making a new game or remaking something older.
They did it so they can sell more data from requiring a PSN account, also just more money from people buying it, I guess.
The Sony shit show continues.
Also if you bought the OG. You still can download and play it.
It’s funny that I could buy and play the original game, but not this remaster or the sequel. That’s because Sony doesn’t acknowledge that my country exists.

I checked GOG as soon as I saw this post. Hopefully they don’t take that down, too.
If Sony pulls it, they pull it. GOG wouldn’t have any options, it’s not theirs to sell, they are just a storefront.
The advantage and point of the DRM-Free nature of GOG is that once you download a game, it stays on your computer even if the game is removed and made unavailable to download. And you are able to download an “offline installer” file which can be backed up and used to install the game at any point in time even without an internet connection. So buying it on GOG knowing it may be removed is still hugely advantageous.
To play devils advocate, semi-similar is true on Steam for the most part. Even though the original was pulled by Sony, you can still download and play it if you previously purchased it.
I do have an expansive offline library though, I admit. Though I’d also say that a company removing access to something you paid for is the most moral reason there is to pirate that something.
So basically if I get it on GOG and block it from accessing the net, I’m good?

Wait. Does this mean that HZD will disappear fm my steam library?
No, it just means people can’t buy it anymore
Historically when games are delisted they’ll still be in your library.
Delisting has never meant it is removed from your library for a paid game, in my memory. Just means you can’t buy it anymore
deleted by creator
I hope they just mean for sale…
This is not true in the literal sense.
You cannot redeem HZD keys, and buy it as part of a bundle with both versions. They stopped selling it standalone.
So you can get the upgrade for $10 if you already have it, or wait for a sale on the bundle.
But in either case you can still play the original release without the PSN requirement even if bought after the remaster release.
For now
Lol remastering a 2017 game, mega cash grab.
this game is such fucking trash. who wants to play anyways
Guess what. Athletic Female with a spoon has it too
