@GenePark I thought most critics were a little harsh on Biomutant... I enjoyed the game for what it was, even got the platinum trophy too.

@spideyvxal062 @SynthPotato It's weird, why do some people on here who only play indie games think it makes them better or something...😭 It's not like I don't love indie games, Undertale is one of my favorite games. But people think hating on GTA 6 makes them some type of greater intellectual than others.

Why are so many accounts now suddenly wishing for GTA 6 to fail? Most of these people weren’t even old enough to hold a controller when GTA 5 came out 😭

@SynthPotato That demo sold me on this game. I had no intention of playing it and after I played the demo, I immediately pre-ordered the game! 😭 My playthrough went up to 12-14 hours instead of 9-10 hours mostly because I explored every area thoroughly and got 100% in all the training sims.

REVIEW: PRAGMATA VERDICT: 8.5/10 - BUY Another great game from Capcom PRAGMATA is the latest new IP from Capcom, announced all the way back in 2020. It’s crazy to think how long it took since then for the release. But it was absolutely worth it, as I think this is another fantastic new IP that will likely run for many years to come by Capcom. Pragmata is very gameplay-centric. It is a third-person shooter with a unique twist involving your companion, Diana, where you are basically playing two games at once, all the time. When you shoot an enemy, it doesn't damage them until you do a hacking mini-game as Diana. While this sounds complex and overwhelming at first, this gameplay loop is frankly addicting and super satisfying as you juggle dodging, aiming, shooting, and hacking all at the same time. There's a real sense of rhythm to the combat, and it’s a genuinely innovative take on what could have otherwise been just another third-person shooter. As you get through the story, some of the hacking minigames start to feel genuinely overwhelming as you try to balance that while dodging a horde of enemies. It kept me on my toes for pretty much the entire game. There's a lot of customization as well, with different mods and loadouts that you can really personalize a build focused on specific aspects. For example, I was very aggressive in hacking, so I made sure to upgrade that and use mods that enhance hacking in specific ways, doing massive damage every time. This variety in builds is not something I expected from Pragmata, but it is definitely welcome. Levels in Pragmata are open and can be revisited after completion. There’s a ton of collectibles and secret rooms to explore and clear out. It is very Resident Evil in the way stuff is laid out, which I really love. You can tell the designers who worked on this have a background in that franchise. But Pragmata isn't a horror game; the general tone is more of a fun sci-fi adventure rather than anything creepy. But the robot designs here can be quite unnerving, and they do have a genuinely creepy vibe, especially towards the end when more corrupted forms of enemies start to appear. I did wish there was more variety in the aesthetics; while each level does have a unique element, it’s very often that you are in similar-looking white lab hallways. I would've loved more encounters on the surface of the Moon or more city landscapes like the amazing New York level. Pragmata's story is mainly about the bond between Hugh, an engineer sent to investigate what went wrong at DELPHI's moon base, and Diana, the child android that he comes across. It is a really heartfelt journey with a ton of soul and a loving message about the value of adopted families. Hugh himself is really likeable right from the beginning as he really is just some guy, and not a trained hero or soldier. As the story progressed, I found myself really caring for this duo, and I absolutely loved where the story went and how it concluded, especially the ending, which I thought was absolutely brilliant in its scale and overall message. One issue with Pragmata is the length. I explored almost everything in my playthrough and ended with about 9 hours played. You can definitely stretch this out to about 20 or so hours if you go for the platinum, but Pragmata is absolutely a short game. So it is important to know what you're getting here; however, each of those 9 hours felt studied to near perfection in terms of pacing, very similar to Resident Evil Requiem. Graphically, I played Pragmata on the PS5 Pro, and at upscaled 4K 60FPS, the visual experience was flawless. The game is gorgeous, runs perfectly, and honestly, it’s fair to say the RE Engine has become a beast for linear games like this at this point. FINAL VERDICT: Overall, Pragmata is a blast to play with a truly heartfelt story that feels like the start of a new, unique and innovative franchise that we will likely see many games come out of. I really enjoyed this game a ton and while I had flaws with repetitive environments and the game being a bit too short, these don't detract from the overall experience. PRAGMATA - 8.5/10 - BUY Special thanks to Capcom for providing a review copy!

@indie_xbox @klobrille I guess that's true. The only Xbox games we know for a fact that sold really well on PlayStation are Forza and Sea of Thieves. Halo and Fable are a wait-and-see since those are already announced for PS5. And to my knowledge, we still don't know if Gears: E-Day will launch on PS5

@GamebredMatrix @klobrille Yes but most of the other games they put on PS didn’t move the needle enough to justify damage their core consumer relations and brand

@Browser_H1story @klobrille It's possible... To my knowledge Gears of War E-Day still hasn't officially announced what platforms it's releasing on, unlike Forza 6 and Halo.

@GamebredMatrix @klobrille They’d probably actually go by a case by case basis this time around, like forza stays multiplatform but gears of war eday stays exclusive atleast for a time

@lastchalice I would have never bought Pragmata if it weren't for that demo. The game wasn't on my radar at all. I saw the great reviews, found out that a demo was available, played the demo, and pre-ordered the game that same day. 😭 I was hooked in the first 5 minutes of that demo.

@PRAGMATAgame @YOOKIkiku This game wasn't even on my radar a few days ago... I saw the great reviews, discovered that a demo had been available for a few months, and then played it. Next then you know, I'm pre-ordering the game. 😭 Can't wait for launch!

@charlieINTEL @JeffGrubb If it's protected release date is anywhere near GTA 6, you might as well push it to early 2027 honestly... There's not a single big game that should be anywhere near November into early December.

@Wario64 From the looks of things, I don't expect this to delay GTA 6 any further. Though they might be forced to change up some of their marketing plans when they get deep into GTA 6 promotion this summer...

@catb0mb @GameRoll_ How can you say "Rockstar is no longer the company that made games like RDR2" when RDR2 was literally the last game that they put out? You can't say Rockstar is no longer that company when they haven't released any games since RDR2 to compare it to...

@GameRoll_ Rdr2 has one of the best stories in any game ever and I love vice city Rockstar is no longer the company that made those games nor do they care about their fans. Graphics is all they have. And im not arguing with someone whos entire online existence is to bootlick for them

@Wario64 The speed at which they're putting out these patches is doing a ton of good for the game it seems The user scores have gone way up from where they originally were at launch. I'll probably pick this up in May.
