It took six years since EA got the exclusive rights to develop Star Wars console games, but last year we finally got our first, full-fledged action-adventure game from them. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order delighted with its story, gameplay and world design. Despite this, there were a few technical problems. In addition to bugs, glitches and frame rate issues, the game also suffered from, you guessed it, long loading times. This was particularly true when traveling between planets. Luckily, PS5 presents so much needed to boosts to load times.

There are drawbacks to convenience in real life and it’s the same for video games. Despite their photo-realistic looks and often good gameplay, many modern games fall into the trap of being too convenient. With the games handling so much, little is asked of players, and that’s kind of a shame. Some of the best experiences in gaming come about when players have to do things for themselves.

This Huntress cosplay was created by Nebulaluben in collaboration with Activision/ Bungie . She seems to be a jack of all trades; not only did she design the outfit, but she also did the photography (with her boyfriend's assistance), as well as the edit

It must be said that classic Halo isn’t necessarily better than a game like Destiny 2. It had matchmaking issues and a progression system that was at least a little, if not very, broken. It also offered players little reason to play outside of simply enjoying multiplayer. It also suffered from feeling "same-y" after a while. Players didn’t have their own personal armories and, until Halo: Reach hit the scene, everyone always had the same basic abilities. Compared to Destiny 2, Halo offered players little in the way of personal options. If one was to find an edge, they had to either do it through power-ups, clever team tactics or just pure skill.

If you’ve played any game in the past few years then you’ll understand a harsh reality: load times are getting longer. As our gaming worlds got bigger, textures and geometry got more detailed, graphical effects increased, and load times also increased. While a handful of well-optimized games managed to cut the time, it wasn’t out of the ordinary to wait close to a minute or even longer to load into some games.

The factions, enemies, and themes of The Brightest Things We Know are clear, loving homages to the Bungie's science-fantasy FPS Destiny franchise , particularly with its emphasis on immortal champions, technology indistinguishable from magic, and alien species with strange cultures and ethics. Novel additions to the Forged In The Dark rules for The Brightest Things We Know include clever mechanics for "respawning" after death, character classes themed around constellations, and a gameplay cycle that alternates between dangerous combat missions called "Strikes" and scenes of recuperation and socialization aboard the foundry-ships of human

This means Destiny 2 has an ever-changing meta-game, and players are always trying to find the build that gives them the best edge. There’s nothing wrong with this kind of system, as it still has plenty of allowance for skill and team tactics at its higher levels. Outside of the upper-tier though, Destiny 2 is still very much about sifting through a multitude of build options in order to find an edge. It’s a very different game compared to the likes of classic Halo.

The spooky castle, families of monster-hunting heroes, and gothic supervillains of Rhapsody of Blood are modeled after the gothic haunts, vampire-hunting Belmont Clan, and incarnations of Dracula seen in the Castlevania video games , with a dash of the boss fights of FromSoftware's Bloodborne. A sequel, Voidheart Symphony , updates the setting of Rhapsody of Blood to a modern-day, urban fantasy world, with an anti-authoritarian rebellion and mental world battles straight out of the Persona JRPG ser

The PS4’s swan song, Ghost of Tsushima dazzled us with its beautiful world, which took some time to load. Unfortunately, playing the game off the SSD on PS5 doesn’t impact the loading times. Despite launching a patch that optimizes the game for PS5, it does not appear that the SSD plays much of a factor. It’s extremely odd as loading has benefited every other PS4 game tested.

A great example of this can be seen in the differences between The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. On a technical level, Skyrim is clearly superior. It looks so much better than Morrowind that it’s almost silly to compare the two, and its combat doesn’t suffer from pure RNG like Morrowind’s does. Skyrim’s point-to-point fast travel opens up new options for combat and exploration; annoying mechanics like stat drain spells have been removed entirely and character building is practically automatic. All one has to do is play the game. These are all things that make Skyrim much more convenient than Morrowind, but they don’t necessarily make it better.
