[Game Informer] What Does The PS5 Bring To Kena: Bridge Of Spirits?
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
No more loading times can't come soon enough. Especially after the loading times of TLOU2.
How cool would it be if you were able to use the mic in the DualSense to launch a game from a cold boot.
- Hold the PS button.
- Microphone picks up on "play Kena".
- You're in the game in 2-3 seconds.
Is that expecting too much? That's the dream.
that should be the case. The PS4 had the ability to talk to the system using your mic to launch games. pressing R2 and speaking on the XMB it gave options. so mic in the controller def has to be in play.
Sounds like it has. The changes they've made is just more detail on screen. That's great, but I expect more from next gen games. Still picking this up on PS5 cause it looks great though.
Actually that sounds 100% doable.
I honestly think I'm most excited about the QoL improvements of next-gen than anything else.
Can´t wait for all the games that are just going to be flat planes because climbing mountains/rocks would hide load times and no building has a door because doors/gates are also hiding load times
The reason they use trees, rocks, and mountains to block your view is cause they're the same old assets used constantly throughout the map. What I wanna see is dense cities filled to the brim with life and unique assets.
To be honest, game estimates never mean anything to me. I remember reading in the Ghost of Tsushima thread how people beat the game in 20-25 hours. I literally sunk 25 hours into the game in Act 1 alone. My total playtime was about 50 hours or so, possibly longer.
Most 10-15 hour game experiences end up taking me upwards of 20-30 because I tend to take my time and just absorb the setting, especially if it's a visually compelling setting, or the gameplay loop is so fun I'm just having a good time roaming around or fighting or collecting shit or whatever.
This game definitely grabbed my attention with its art design and visuals, so now I'm just hoping the gameplay is as enjoyable as it looks.
If the system is already on, they should give you the option to do this without needing to press/hold the PS button.
Just "Ok PlayStation, start Kena"
You can already do that, since 2014, with any microphone, even ones connected to the DS4, you can just say "PlayStation, play Uncharted 4", etc
30 Voice Commands You Can Use on Your PlayStation 4
Sony’s PlayStation 4 has voice commands, just like the Xbox One. They’re just not as heavily advertised. PS4 voice commands work with a standard headset, so you don’t need any special hardware–unlike the Xbox One, which requires a Kinect for voice control.

Yeah... and the Duel Sense has a built in microphone this time. So yes, I expect it.
That's CRAZY. A good deal of marketing for the PS5 should be several videos of people bounding from game to game faster than app jumping on a mobile phone.
And this game wasn't even originally designed for the PS5.
Fuck. The days of making sandwiches and taking a potty break during load times are over. This new generation of consoles is garbage. Thanks, Obama!
Like most new console launches, I feel like this game is going to sell, regardless of quality, simply because it's so beautiful to look at. With that said, just because a developer doesn't have a track record of previously shipped games, doesn't mean they can't make a quality game as their first outing. And it's not like dev teams are scraped together from the bottom of a bucket, so it's possible the team actually working on the game are experienced game developers.
With the scope of the game seemingly not overly massive, that also makes me optimistic, in that it implies the team has a tight focus on the kind of game they're making, and aren't over-reaching in terms of scope. Like, they aren't tackling some open world sandbox rpg with branching storylines and complex mechanics. It seems charmingly straight forward and simple, and that's part of the appeal to me beyond just the gorgeous art design and animations. I'm cautiously optimistic, is what I'm saying. XD
