I only just played Tales of Symphonia last summer but I'm excited for Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition to come to PC!

I’m... not sold on it. Feels very heavy and cumbersome after playing Soul Calibur 6 for months. And I forgot how much I dislike the counter-heavy gameplay of it.

Cumbersome is a good word for how it feels. I’ve been dabbling with Mortal Kombat X recently and it’s much more fun to me at least.

I remember a few years back when weekly release schedule was like... A game. Some niche PSP JRPG or something. There were like 4 indie games, total, and Braid was one of them.

Now? Every weekly release slate is like 20+ games, most of which are indie titles with VERY niche/limited appeal. I almost feel bad for all the well-made games that just got lost in the shuffle from there being *too many games* - especially when so many of those are of dubious quality, making some of the best games ever made buried under garbage like Life Of Black Tiger and Bloody Boobs.

Wait... Bloody Boobs is out??? Why didn't anyone tell me!!!

But seriously, when I go to the latest (newest) release section of the PlayStation store (or sales, or anything really), there's the big guns like EA, Ubisoft, Activision, etc, spamming it out with 1500 variations (sorry, I mean "editions") of the same game. Oh, and booster packs, DLC, etc... those filters don't quite filter very well... so much crap!

It's very easy to bury the competition when they've got the resources to do so. You've really got to dig for the good stuff.

Ugh, the "sales" on PSN store are hard to navigate, because it'll always throw a bunch of garbage online currency before the actual games. Like. These stores really ought to become more robust for the majority of players who don't buy that stuff.

You can sort the list so that's not an issue at all and filter by game/DLC/add on etc. I've really never found it a problem in 10 years of PSN. The sales are usually really good, too.

That's true of the desktop version, but I tend to browse on my phone via the app (especially when I'm doing my daily daydreaming at work), and the filters are not great/very basic.
