Baldur's Gate 3 is set to release on Xbox this year, and one can't help but wonder how console owners will react. Will they embrace the game, or is it too PC-centric to have much success? I have yet to play the game, but it looks like it could be quite complicated to control on a TV.
I'm glad for those who will be able to enjoy the game, as a PC exclusive it wouldn't have to be dumbed down and would remain true to its core values. I'm sure many console owners will appreciate that.
The news of BioWare having to cut staff came as a shock, especially when they have two major games in production. It's understandable that EA would want to recoup the money they invested in these 250 people, but it's a shame to see such a talented developer reduced to just scraping by.
In other news, Sony's PlayStation Portal has had some misinformation in regards to how it can be used outside the home. You can use it with any games on your PlayStation 5 installed, but you must have access to broadband with at least 5 Mbps. For a better play experience, they recommend a speed of 15 Mbps.
Finally, Armored Core 6 has a lot of customisation options for your mech, making it a great game for fashion souls. I'm sure it's going to be a hit!
All in all, it looks like Baldur's Gate 3 could be a success on consoles, despite its PC-centric nature. It's a good thing that the game is being made with this in mind, as it means everyone can get the version of the game they want. Hopefully, BioWare will be able to pull out of their current predicament and become a powerhouse developer once more.
Baldur's Gate 3 is coming to Xbox this year and there's a bit of a buzz around it, but how will console owners take to it? I'm not sure they will, at least not in the same way that PC owners have. It looks like a complicated game that would be a nightmare to operate with a controller and there's not much talk about it in my circles.
I think it's probably a good thing that Baldur's Gate 3 is staying PC-exclusive. It means that developers have the freedom to make the game the way it needs to be, without having to compromise for the console market. Otherwise, it could have been dumbed down or changed in some way to make it easier to control with a controller.
The news about BioWare having to cut staff is worrying, and it's hard to look at it from EA's point of view. It's been a decade since they've had a decent game, and now they're just scraping by. It's sad to see what's become of BioWare, considering they were one of the best developers in the world at one point.
I was a bit concerned reading the Armoured Core 6 review, but I was sold when I read that you could customise your mech's appearance. It reminded me of customising cars in Forza Motorsport, and it sounds like there are lots of options. It looks like Sony could have done a better job of making people aware that the PlayStation Portal could also be used outside the home, but at least they clarified it in the FAQs.
The PlayStation Portal could be useful for people who need an alternative way to play away from the TV. It could be useful in situations like when the family is watching Netflix, when you want to play in bed, or when the living room is occupied. If Sony can make it completely 'pick up and play' with no lag or technical issues, I think it could be quite successful. It won't be a smash hit, but it could be a nice addition for those who need it.
