How did some people take 80 hrs? What could they have possibly have done to get double the playtime as you?
I have no idea. 80 hours seems insane to me. Maybe it felt like 80 hours to them because they thought it was boring? Lol.
Well, not really but I guess it's a mechanic intended to support the connection theme rather than just a help. Paved roads sound huge actually. Anyway I read your whole review after posting btw, thanks a lot for the translation!
It didn't sound like a 9,5 to me though, with the talk of confusing storyline down the road and all that but I guess it's a highly subjective score based on the impact it left on you personally :)
Do you think the traversal/delivery/gameplay enjoyment depends much on taking it competitively with yourself and new items depend much on landing good delivery scores or even farming deliveries (if that's even possible)?
Also, did you at least try on a base ps4 or have the possibility, to comment on that version iq/performance or even showcase some screens?
Thank you very much again for doing this :)
PS: I'm really torn on keeping my 49,90€ preorder or wait some months. I just purchased an xbox one x and I'm not rich but some of the things I've seen in the game really appeal to me, while others put me way off...
Well just because its a 9.5 doesn't mean I have to only praise the game. I try to be very analytical in what a game does with me. Still, thanks for reading the entire review!
As for your questions:
Do you think the traversal/delivery/gameplay enjoyment depends much on taking it competitively with yourself and new items depend much on landing good delivery scores or even farming deliveries (if that's even possible)?
New items that make your life easier have a lot to do with the amount of (side)missions you do, not so much the quality of your delivery. The enjoyment you get out of it depends on how invested you get in the game world and the things going on. I mean, I loved that I was getting a better 'delivery boy'. What do you mean with farming deliveries? You can have an almost endless supply of side-deliveries to do, yes.
Also, did you at least try on a base ps4 or have the possibility, to comment on that version iq/performance or even showcase some screens?
No, sorry, only played on a PS4 Pro.
Man, the bike traversal over the environment in that giantbomb quick look looks bad?
Still can't over the fact that they are out there trying to deliver a fucking pizza lol
Bike traversal is kinda tricky, driving with a truck is much better.
As far as the pizza go, I was laughing when I got that mission, just the banality of it. Is Kojima really going to make me deliver a pizza? Yes he is, lol. I would have liked it to not be spoiled actually.
