So early access for PS5?
Do we know about its release anywhere else yet? I backed it quite a few years ago now for an eventual switch release.

Noice, is there Cross Save coming for the game as well per chance?

(Or Cross-Trading perhaps?)

This is great news, game looks fantastic and been waiting for it to release on consoles before I play it. Glad to see it's coming to PS5 in December. Can't get a PS5 so I wonder when it'll release for PS4 though since I've been excited/waiting for that version to release for awhile now.

I'm excited for this one! PC impressions were positive.

Did anyone break a PS4 in protest already?

Oh it's expensive. Never played a Pokemon game but I want to try (zero attachment to the ip, never watched the anime), didn't buy Sword/Shield because of fans impressions and reviews.

Is this game better?

This would be crazy tbh - sure about that ? Cant see how they would skip 160m PS4/Xbones yet bring it to Switch.
yes, they cancelled the ps4 and xbone versions

Update 71: Embracing Next-Gen · Temtem - Massively multiplayer creature-collection adventure

Tamers, As we announced today during Sony’s State of Play event, Temtem is looking towards the future and will be releasing on the PS5.

Remember reading how this game came about and have been looking forward to playing it since.

it won't be any serious competition. the game is pretty dead on pc.

This does not surprise me. I think it will definitely grow back once it launches with 1.0 though.

So my opinion on the game. I was super into it when it first launched in EA and it was booming then. Then they made this horrible decision to neuter anyone that kept playing and doing breeding and made all breeding items STUPID expensive in game to the point it drove SO many away including me as there wasn't much to do yet but work on breeding which WAS fun but became such a grind after they drove prices up but there weren't ways in game to make money but catching trash and releasing constantly. It was a horrible grind. Seemed like they upped prices for how they would be in game money balanced at launch but didn't account people wanted to keep playing in EA only to do breeding since there wasn't much else. I honestly think that was a huge mistake they made but they never seemed to fix prices.

Needless to say this might all be better at launch once more ways to make money are added, unless they think the grind should be that long and up prices again...

I am surrpised at the prices tbh, this is an indie game after all. Seems nextgen is skyrocketing prices for all, whether AAA or indies.

I'll be honest that I'm a bit sad about this exclusivity.

It's not even fully done yet.

My original prediction was that it would sell like crazy, but we had the PS4/XboxOne versions in the pipeline then. All those possible customers just gone now.

They actually just addressed the currency issue:

And apparently these suggestions were very heavily based on community feedback. The Temtem team are really good at listening to the community I've found, and even though I dropped off before finishing the available content it was more because I wanted to do the rest all at once and not wait each time. But I love seeing all the attention and care they put into each update.

I think Temtem is very very good. Its far better than anything Pokemon has put out in over a decade imo despite being unfinished, and if you are in the same boat of being disappointed in Pokemon you should 100% give it a look.

Now that this is nearing release, I'm really itching to get it. I just hope the single player content is meaty and meaningful as I've got no interest in the multiplayer aspect.

The game will release on ps5 in early access, it is not finished yet, so I would advise to wait until the full launch if you are mainly going to play the single player portion. There is still quite a bit of planned content missing from it. The only advantage you have by picking it up immediately is that you will save about $7 and can play the current version.

Is there an ETA on when it'll come out of Early Access ?

On another note, haptic supports confirmed for this.

I really didn't get a lot of enjoyment out of Pokémon Sword. It felt very low effort to me, like nothing had changed or developed or dare I say, "evolved" in the 15 years the franchise has been running...maybe this might be better? It would be pretty ironic if it was. I'll give it a whirl.

Yeah I felt the same way when I got a Switch late last year and played Sword. I hadn't played a mainline Pokemon game since Gold and Silver so I expected a lot more out of the franchise since then. Sword was one of the most disappointing games I'd played in a while. Just low effort all around. I've heard good things about Temtem so I'm definitely tempted to try it out.

I haven't played this game in a longtime, good to see it's cross play. Now another dev to bug about supporting DualSense features on PC when Steam fully cracks it and add it to Steam Input.
