I’m sure this isn’t 100% accurate as I was in Korea and played mostly offline.

Just put my 7yo daughter on the sticks for the 1st time. Running practice plays on NCAA
She actually picked up on basic button placement faster than I thought. Added the defense in after about 5 min and said throw to an open man - she completed about 4 out of 10, 2 of them questionable

Been replaying TLOU1 on PS5.
Yep, the hotel basement is still terrifying.

I’ve encountered my first dungeon in Metaphor that I don’t like
Bad Religion
thoughts on this one?
Dragon Temple. This joint is entirely too long. I’m going to have to go back to the beginning and wack enemies with the Mage just to replenish MP

You're right behind me. I finished this one 3 days ago. It was long has heck but I actually liked it. As soon as you remove a certain enemy type it was enjoyable. Trying to find every item was a bit of a bore. I hope that's the longest dungeon because it was too long for a boss that was underwhelming.
Next couple of dungeons are a fraction of the size if you're playing the same way I am.

I’ve got to switch up the archetypes because these enemies are tough. Most of them are showing as red for me. I’m about to ditch this guide too. I get a new archetype and then a few days later it’s like “you’re level 15, go see More”. I guess they expected you to grind and max archetypes every time you get a chance to fight

Just reading this made me anxious.
The only thing more terrifying than that encounter in the entire series is the fight with
Ellie in Part 2
That was pure nightmare fuel

For some reason it seams more random and unnecessary compared to other games

Dont give in to resellers. This is a supply chain issue. There will be more. Sony would have placed a procurement order for a certain amount and unless there is an agreement to trickle them in, they are manufactured in bulk and will be sent to distributors around the same time. Plus they most likely boat them over and could be in seatrains as we speak, slowly making there way here. Just be ready for the next restock. Resellers smell blood. Be patient. Let them get stuck with inventory after the return period ends.

I'm just really considering trading to a PS5 Pro right now because gamestop says they will give me $350 in store trade in credit for my launch PS5. Also I had a scary day yesterday with my launch PS5 where after the latest system update and me playing Uncharted 4 remastered for a few hours I noticed the game stopped showing the FPS when I went into my LG C1 oled game optimizer. I quit the game and tried to re launch the game and would just go to a black screen but hear the game starting up and the usual Playstation studios intro. I had to do a hard manual reboot by holding the power button to shut off and then reboot until I got 2 beeps. My PS5 went into safe mode and rebuilt the ssd database. That still didn't fix the problem. I eventually shut my PS5 off and removed the power cord, hdmi cable, ethernet cable. Turned the PS5 back on and deleted and re downloaded Uncharted 4 but still had the same problem. I then thought it might be my m.2 ssd expansion stick causing the problem so I moved the game from my ssd to the internal PS5 ssd and that still didn't fix the problem. Finally I shut down my PS5 took off the plates and removed my m.2 ssd from the expansion slot. I powered on my PS5 and I hated having to eventually having to do a factory reset and wiping my PS5. I re downloaded Uncharted 4 and it started working again. All of these trouble shooting steps I tried before I wiped my PS5 I was having the problem on disc games or digital downloaded games stored on my m.2 expansion ssd or the internal m.2 ssd.
So yeah it's looking like my launch PS5 is on it's last legs and I'm going to GS tomorrow to see if I can trade to the PS5 Pro as long it passes their in store tests and they give me the $350 for it towards getting a PS5 pro.
The whole 4 years I've had my launch PS5 I never ran into any over heating issues and I've done regular cleaning and the right maintenance on it. I've had this lying horizontal on my tv stand ever since and never vertical and it's had plenty of air flow and.

Don't be afraid to use the experience items to level. I was hoarding them and ended up with close to 50+. Even just a couple to get an archetype to level 5 or 6 and get some basic abilities.

Sucks. I ended up keeping my launch this time around. I haven’t had any issues, yet. But it didn’t get a whole lot of play time the first 2 years. I was still playing on my PS4 Pro.
But if GS will give you $350 trade in I see it as a no brainer upgrade. I hope it works out and you can join the Pro fam. Just stick to those digi games for now. Work your PS plus games if you have em. I’ve been watching out for drives for the NT fam. So if I see them before it gets posted I’ll get links in here.

So far, I think the general consensus is that if you don't have a PS5 and want to get one, might as well go for the Pro.
I think VR benefits a lot from it, so if you play a lot of VR, it might be worth it.
If you already have a PS5, save your money.
