The Dilemma of "Play TLoU:P2 and Ghosts of Tsushima at launch" or "wait to play them on PS5"
- Thread starter Plum
- Start date
Same. No way i'm getting spoiled.
Maybe i'll even double dip if they do DLC later.
buying and playing both on PS4, that being said I probably will not have time till Jan 2021 to really dive into both so one may be saved till PS5 just because im busy
I never finished the original Last of Us so I'm gonna play both of them on PS5 once it comes out.
I really think the experience of playing games at launch is unmatched, so, that. It'll be long enough before PS5 that a replay will be in order.
I was hoping to stay strong and play them on next-gen. However I am weak. Going tomorrow to pre-order TLOU 2.
Not worried at all about performance on my base PS4. Most Sony studios exclusives run rock solid. Full faith in ND (& SuckerPunch).
However I may wait with getting Ghost, since I really want to play that on next-gen / may be busy in summer which will make the wait a bit more bearable. But knowing myself I'll cave in.

Gonna wait for the PS5 since I sold my og PS4 last year and I soured my experience of TLOU by playing it through psnow at 720p+ bad input lag and video compression, never could bring myself to play through it again on ps4 so I don't wanna have the same experience again.
Why not play out? You have no idea what the patches will be like, or if they'd even add anything noteworthy over PS4 Pro. PS5 could get delayed or a PS5 enhanced patch could get delayed past next gen launch too. Who knows, we're in a global pandemic/depression.
i would say play them now, as they were originally designed because you may end up waiting for middling results.

Day one for me. I've been waiting forever, and it isn't like these games don't already look incredible on the PS4/PS4 Pro. That and I sort of want them to be the closing swansongs for the system. A great way to close things out.
Also, rather than have an immediate backlog when I buy the PS5, I'd rather be playing new or next gen games from day one and onwards.

Play then day one. I will be hard to get a PS5 in the first few months due to short supply and very high demand. Every console is.
Day one. It's already been a nightmare trying to dodge spoilers (I've already been spoiled two times, and thankfully they contradict each other so I can trick my mind into thinking they're just bullshit). I can't imagine what it will be like when everybody gets their hands on it and people start discussing them out in the wild. I'd go crazy in the months between the launch of the ps5 and the release of the last of us.
I'm not keeping up with next gen news, but what makes you think the PS5 won't sound like a jet engine? Both my PS4 and PS4 Pro sounded like that from the start.
I'm expecting a loud console and a garbage controller again until proven otherwise.

I'll be playing them at launch on a base system. They'll still look great (hopefully they'll run fine too) and I've waited long enough already for TLOU2 and a new Sucker Punch game consarnit.
If the wait was one month I'd wait, but since these are coming out several months before PS5 I would just play them, let the time pass until PS5, then play them again on PS5. That's just me, though.
I was going to wait, but there'll be a billion TLOU2 hot take threads on ERA post launch and I doubt I'll be able to remain spoiler free so day 1 it is.
Going to borrow my brother's Pro for both games.

I'm waiting. They are inevitable and I want to play them at their full 4k glory since I don't have pro. I'm starting with Xbox next gen because if gamepass, so when they come out the ps5 should be easier to find, maybe with a game bundle of whatever the hottest launch title I missed out on.
By then, they will likely be GotY editions too, and LoU2 will likely include the multiplayer spinoff

It is using a better system and I think Cerny specifically mentioned the loudness of his PS4.
Playing both on ps4. Maybe I'll go back to an upgraded version on PS5 one day (I did this with The Last of Us), but for now I just want to play these games as they are. There also are fewer new interesting releases right now and there is a lot of time left to be spent at home with ongoing restrictions outside. That will definitely last through August so it will be great to have this kind of distraction.
I'll be playing both on my white PS4. Not looking forward to the noise that will be coming out of it though.
Day one for both of those on my OG PS4. FFVII-R looked great on that, and I wear headphones, so I don't have to worry about the noise.
Yeah nothing concrete, but that is something should not be hard to fix with a little effort.
At first I was wait on both but the more I thought about how much I loved last of on ps3 when it came out the more I couldn't resist anymore. I already sold my pro but I'm taking my bro's PS4 slim to play it. I could easily wait on Ghost, ive never liked sucker punches stuff and while I'm interested in Samurai's it actually look wack to play in the latest state of play to me. I will give it chance on ps5 but on sale.
Unless cyberpunk or deltarune dropped I'm done with games for the year. Too much backlog and I'm trying to stick to free to play stuff and save money,
Ghosts looks up my alley

If there is cross buy, I'm day 1 on PS4. Either way, I'll wait to play on my PS5. My pro sounds like a jet engine. It's sad, I doubt I will play on it anymore this gen, due to this.
