Ratchet was developed on PCs.  There's 0 reason you can't run that game on a system with a very fast pci-e gen 4 SSD. 

You seem to be completely  missing my point. Of course a game like Ratchet could be made for PCs. It wouldn't be because how many PC gamers have a PCI-E Gen 4 SSD? It's why mentioned Cyberpun 2077's SSD situation. Ratchet was made because Isomniac knew every PS5 had SSD capable of running the game.  Ratchet isn't cross gen, instead of getting more experience like Ratchet we are stuck with hamstrung last gen games running at higher resolutions. If I want to run a last gen game at higher resolutions, I'll get the PC version.  I went on big diatribe about how PC has technology that doesn't get taken advantage of because PC developers have to account for people with lower spec hardware. The whole appeal of consoles for me is that you get developers, like Insomniac, that maximize the hardware in ways that frankly is never done on PC. That really ever happen on the Xbox platform and with Sony's cross gen strategy you'll have to wait until God of War 3 and Horizon 3 to see game developed from the ground up for PS5 and by the time those games release the PS6 will be around corner.

That Edgelord, try hard Final Fantasy Stranger of Paradise game 

I failed to discern much difference.

 

The Edgelordishness (tm) is perhaps a bit sharper than it was in FFXV (pick a connotation), granted.

 

But once you've hit the actual slums of the slums of FFVII, you've pretty much hit absolute, or, dare I say, FINAL Etropy.

 

No more magic.

 

Just a bunch of gay rocks.

 

Maybe a boy band.

Yeah but do they yell "CHAOS!!!" repeatedly without being prompted? 😉

This game is definitely taking some cues from Samus Returns.  This has to be getting deved by the same people.  Yeah Mercury Steam.  EEEEYYY... they confirmed Mercury Steam is helping co dev it.  Good on them.

 

Game is also taking some cues from Fusion it looks like in terms of being stalked. 

 

Samus has a new slide ability to get past some enemies and quickly get through tight spaces.  I can't get over how good this game looks right now...I hope this game makes the sales needed the Metroid doesn't get put on the backburner again for Metroid fans.

 

Alright now moving full tree house gameplay segment.  Showing how fluid thing is between countering and immediately shooting.  Way more smooth than Samus Returns.

 

EMMI's do not give a fuck.  They come after Samus terminator style.  Samus unloads like everything but the kitchen sink and it bounces off.

Looks like Samus gets an Omega cannon that can take down emmi...you get one shot to take down the emmi and then it goes back to a regular cannon.

 

looks like they have some environmental puzzles in this...so samus jumped into an area that was flooded with water up to her neck preventing her from getting to a higher area.  So you can shoot a breakable section of wall to let the water out to allow Samus to jump. 

 

So now another emmi chase section where the emmi can't follow samus in tight cramped area...the Emmi will actively try to find another way to get to you and if it can it will.  It follows you to different rooms as well so just because you believe you've gotten away from the Emmi for a brief moment may not neccessarily mean you're safe.

 

Adam...Samus' ships AI returns.  Functions a lot like Fusion in terms of giving information and debriefing. 

 

Emmi will sense your vibration and immediately go into search mode.  When it spots you and is in full pursuit the light on it turns red.   If it's blue then it doesn't have an idea you are there yet.  If you get caught by an Emmi then that's your cheeks...that's an instant death.

 

Doing another water puzzle to get water to flood into another area.

 

If you're in a room and you don't see an Emmi but it hears you, you'll get an indication of the  'sound' you're making by the yellow circles that expand out from around the legs of Samus.

 

Apparently don't have to wait to counter people with the melee.  you can actually use the melee itself as a legit attack on some enemies.  In Samus Returns this wasn't really the case...usually you'd just knock the enemy back usually if they weren't doing a counterable attack but this it looks like it's an actually attack that can be usable.  Also you don't have to sit still to counter.  You can run and melee/counter in this game.

 

And that's it for this segment...moving on to Mario Party Superstars.
