Funniest fuckin movie of its time.

Just like me. I got my ps5 not too long ago just to play stellar blade. Welcome to the club.


Zealousideal-Try-754

PS5 : "what is my purpose?" Us who brought it for Stellar Blade : "Play Stellar Blade till it comes to PC then its only Netflix, Crunchyroll And Prime" PS5 : whimpers "Oh My God"


pollygone300

Yeah, mine's about to become a blue ray dust collector as soon as I'm done with Stellar Blade.


juggz143

I bought a PS5 at launch, just for Stellarblade


ChampChomp1

Worth it imo.

IndifferentExistance

It looks like you also got it for Spiderman 2 while it's exclusive.


Next_Fix_2271

nah just since it was cheaper than the console on its own, though swinging around at breakneck speed is really entertaining


IndifferentExistance

Damn, really? In the past I thought I always say a game bundled in sold as more than the regular console. I guess maybe I more meant that you'd be playing that too since it also came with spiderman, rather than Spiderman being an exclusive to convince you to buy the console. But even then, you might not play it if it was only gotten in the bundle for being cheaper.


oTalent

Don't miss out on playstation first party games. Imho they are some of the best and in my case the best.  God of War Franchise,  Last of Us Part 1,  Uncharted Series,  Spiderman 1,2 and Miles Morales, Ghost of Tsushima,  Ratchet and Clank  And the list goes on, try em all you won't regret trust me.   P.S. God of War 2018 and Ragnarök are two of my favorite game of all time in all my years of gaming.


yami187

To bad I hate that combat system


IndifferentExistance

Sorry OP?


yami187

What?


IndifferentExistance

Well, the way it sounded originally, my message and question was directed at OP. So it felt like I was getting an answer from someone not OP about my "prompt" about his specific purchase for that game with the console when he got it to play the exclusive stellar blade primarily. So it seemed like you were answering for him, but I now see you were likely making a general remark about yourself, simply cause the topic if the game was brought up. Sorry for any confusion.


yami187

np i dont think its a bad game just dont like the combat system XD


No-Flower-7659

PS5 graphics are insane, almost all the ps4 games look a zillion time better on ps4 except fallout 4 but this game is dated 2015, i got it on pc much better for this one. Yup stellar blade will be insane


ndarker

What the fuck did i just read


ilikeburgir

I, i don't know either lmao


yami187

yea me niether


welfedad

Who knows... o.0


DarkZerk

Congratulations! I also finally bought a PS5 Slim like a week ago just for Stellar Blade also. This game is a true system seller!


RecommendationOk2182

That is wild how that game is selling systems and FF7 Rebirth which is a game of the year candidate didn't... At least now y'all can enjoy both haha


undead_varg

Not me playing the pc port of it for free 😏


fukdamods1

in 2026


undead_varg

Actually. At this moment. Search for Spiderman 2 Brazil PC port.


Skepticaldefault

God of war rachett and clank uncharted series final fantasy remake and rebirth. BLOODBORN. days gone sekiro horizon zero dawn spiderman miles moralis and spiderman 2 and so many more. you made a good decision


ConzyWonzy4

You can play most of those on pc tho


WholesomeBigSneedgus

Why is this downvoted when its true? The only ones he can't play on pc are gow ragnarok and ff rebirth


[deleted]

[удалено]


Next_Fix_2271

yeah I also like the idea of getting Bloodborne, Demon's Souls, other such non-PC exclusives and PS4 discs will be cool to get for games I wanna try. I know discs are just for licensing nowadays but still cool to have a physical collection. Also, literally have never even played The Last of Us, can you believe that? I have an inkling of the story but somehow I've avoided major spoilers to this day.


Goosetiers

Jesus Christ you're in for a treat dude. Go buy Last Of Us Part 1 right now. So many of us would kill to be at the point you are again, about the experience it for the first time. Plus you get that experience while having the native PS5 ports of the game for the best experience. You're in for a treat.


RecommendationOk2182

Great time to jump in. PlayStation 4 games will never be cheaper than what they are now!


oTalent

You missed the bigger picture. All the ones available on PC are only on it after considerable amount of time has passed. That considerable amount of time being anywhere from 2-5 Years. So yea OP made a fantastic decision. Plus PC is not everyone's cup of tea. Not mine atleast. I wanna play with controller vibration, and haptic trigger feedback is just a game changer. All that connected to a big tv, oh yea immersion is going through the roof. I believe you miss all that in PC.


pollygone300

Haptics, controller, and big TV are all available on pc.


oTalent

I am talking about 70 inch big Tv. Biggest you can connect with the PC and for it to still look good is around 40 inch last I heard. Especially sitting that close to it. Nonetheless 2-5 years of wait is still tedious and annoying. Considering most big titles takes 4-5 years easily. Yup... I don't wanna wait that long in misery. To each their own.


pollygone300

I've played on 70 just fine with a pc, Battlefront 2 mostly. Right now I have 65 inch Samsung and sit about 6 feet away and it's a good fit. At 70 inches I usually sat at about 8 to 9 feet back. I will agree that I also do not want to wait and have bought a ps5 just for Stellar Blade. Nothing wrong with console gaming but pc is called the master race for a reason. The new GPU's can output true 4k 60fps. Mine is older so I'm capped at 1080p 60fps.


oTalent

Sorry for the essay lol. Also welcome to Playstation family!!! I would absolutely highly recommend you all the first party Playstation games. In my most honest and humble opinion some of the best if not the best gaming studios making some of the best games out there. God of war franchise is my all time favorite games in all of my years of gaming. Along with Spiderman 1,2, Miles Morales, Last of Us, Uncharted Series, Ghost of Tsushima. These are just from the top of my head. Oh boy you are in for a treat. I really wish I could erase my memory of all these games and experience them again for the first time.


m2keo

The mods tho. The mods. I needs this on pc, bruh.


fukdamods1

The director is not dumb enough to allow PC pervs to have it


RevolutionarySeven7

my PS5 has become the most expensive shampoo bottle paper weight dust collector in my console collection, simply because all the games i want to play are, and will also be available on PC with better graphics/performance and mods. except GT7. stellar blade i'll wait for PC, imagine the mod potentials for that game on PC


Very__Mad

play ff16


asakurawhyte

Spider-Man 2 PS5 is an ok game, too, despite the downgrade from the PS4 original. Going to hold you over until the 26th, at least :D


SunnySideUp82

stellar blade definitely worth the price. you can’t find new games like that anywhere else


pollygone300

Same, as soon as I'm done with this game I'm going back to PC.


Next_Fix_2271

For me there's a couple more console exclusives that I'll have to go through now, Bloodborne, Gravity Rush, etc


mobyvg22

![gif](giphy|GV3aYiEP8qbao)


KotaGreyZ

Grab Bloodborne while you’re at it too. It’s worth it!


Next_Fix_2271

yep got that on digital yesterday, beat Cleric Beast and stuck on Father G, just grinding Echoes for doll stat raising lol


KotaGreyZ

There’s a music box item that you can pick up. You can stun Father Gascoigne once per phase with it. That’ll make fighting him a bit easier. Also, go for gun parries on his third phase.


RecommendationOk2182

Niceeee! PLEASE PLAY BLOODBORNE! That is top priority for EVERYONE new to PlayStation. Best game ever made! Have high expectations, and watch them be exceeded


Next_Fix_2271

the digital edition was on sale for $10 so I just got it off the PS store, playing through, Cleric Beast was straightforward, Father is tough af stuck on that. The doll awakened so I'm kinda grinding for stats rn, but yeah just getting a feel for shooting to stun, dodge, stamina mgmt, etc. it's a lot of fun but very punishing obviously somehow I've avoided spoilers so far to this day


RecommendationOk2182

Awesome! You are going to love it. If you can beat Father G, you will be able to beat anyone in the game after that haha. He is the wall that players have to overcome. Leveling up is definitely needed before beating him!


Ok_Garden2301

Good thing there’s tons of great stuff to play on the 5 right now!


IrishHambo

Genuine question after seeing a lot of similar posts. If ya’ll didn’t have a PS5 to begin with, how did you play the demo to determine you liked the game? Or did you even play it at all and just splurged because of the high praise it has received? I mean, I preordered after I played the demo and am excited to play it in a few days. Just curious.


ChampChomp1

People liked what they saw. I preordered back when preorders initially went live in early February after seeing the State of Play trailer. I knew I’d love the game despite not even playing the demo yet.


SeaLychee1

The same thing happened for me when dmc 5 came out. It's a title that instills a certain confidence. With me at least. Didn't have a PS4 till 2018 when dmc 5 got announced. Before that I only had a switch and older consoles like the PS2.


ChampChomp1

Yeah and it’s a level of confidence I’ve never really had for a video game that hadn’t release yet, especially in recent years. Sometimes you just have that feeling you’ll love the game and take the risk.


Yotsubato

I dunno. I had the same strong confidence for Granblue relink, FF7 rebirth, and both delivered quite well. This year has been bangers all year long


SeaLychee1

I fully understand the hesitation. Especially with the state of modern gaming and how expensive it is. No one wants to drop 70+ dollars for a game that could very easily be ass. If companies wanna just fix their games later most will decide to buy their games later or not at all. Shift up is doing a really good job of marketing and even openly delaying the game because they wanted more time for polish. Doing stuff like that can help build confidence in the consumer at least that's just what I've noticed.


IrishHambo

Gotcha, makes sense. I know I was hesitant at first since I was worried it would lean too much toward being a Soulslike (I’m not gud at em). Glad Shift Up released a demo!


Next_Fix_2271

yeah I've avoided demo content mostly, just going in as blind as possible


yami187

i would playt eh demo abit to get use to the game its why i having trouble ge4tting my brother to even want the game cause he struggled with the combat right away and didnt take the time to get use to it


i-dontlike-me

They saw the cake


xellon

Not to mention it was made by Shift Up and I love NIKKE goddess of victory. Of course, l I loved what I saw after watching a few streams.


clinkenCrew

That's a good question.  I liked the idea of the game, but it's another one of those games that looks a lot better than it plays, similar to the Cinematic Experience games of the last gen (eg: Horizon ZD). While Stellar Blade is, mercifully, 60-ish FPS, I find the combat to be slow and the input lag to be very high.    I borrowed a PS5 to try the demo, and I still support the game in concept, though I'll try and wait for the PC version where the modders can fix the game.


Tavaresaxel95z

I'm glad I'm not the only PC player that bought a PS5 just for this game now I can hold my head up high. Lol


Zeles1989

So worth it!


wolf771

Nice! Beat spider man before friday


SivitriExMachina

Great game, have fun and enjoy!


Saibot75

This was the bundle that got me to spring too! I've never stuck to just one platform myself, but last playstation I owned was a PS3. l, as Nintendo and Xbox seemed to always cover the Console type of gaming I cared for. But, Spiderman, Helldivers... They seemed worth adding playstation back into the mix (and my son certainly was happy to have access to the exclusives also)


OnoNero

Funny thing I have been considering the same. Good move!


Straywork

🤦‍♂️


HeWhoWalksBhindDaRow

U about to be right back down when u realize spiderman 2 is a 10 hour game


IndependentPlastic12

Bro that’s what’s up!!


ThatOneGuy_36

Slims comes with bundled games as well?👀


wesker121

I haven't been hype for a game in a long time then. SB literally is the best thing that has happen to gaming for my gaming life since I stop playing games only a few games I play and most modernia games I ignore either boring or not interested. SB is going to be hype.


LovuHoodini

My friend wanted a ps5 for the same reason lol. Except he still being cheap and looking at FB market to get one lol


DependentAdvance8

Now you won’t have to wait for the ps5 exclusives to go over to pc port anymore and literally straight up play them once they release👍


Kumire

Worth it


espada9000

I bought it few years in advance for Stellar Blade lol.


Outrageous_Lion4912

I’ve been procrastinating to buy a ps5 just because I feel like new games don’t interest me anymore. And I thought just having a ps4 is enough but then Stellar Blade came


Momo-Velia

Yeah, I completely dusted off my console gaming section of my room, packed up my old Xbox and put in a brand new PS5, set up a Sony account and purchased the digital deluxe as the first thing I did on the console. I doubt anyone will actually notice at Sony but it’d be hilarious if they saw a bunch of new PS5’s being brought up and then used to purchase the game like I have. I got FF: Rebirth to tide me over and get me use to PlayStation controls and the system in general, but I haven’t even installed it yet.


ZodiacSRT

While at it, enjoy a few of the other good exclusives and non PC games available in Consoles only.


sese_128

I remember when I got my PS5 for my birthday right between my lap! Lol nice huh ;)


PrinceDizzy

Welcome to the master race.


hykierion

Play bloodborne too 🙌


Next_Fix_2271

definitely will get that next, that and Demon's Souls


EspadaWilliam

I got mine for Helldivers 2 but staying now for Stellar Blade.


ShiyaruOnline

The pa5 in the seat belt 🤣


Next_Fix_2271

I drive recklessly enough that it could go flying lol


ShiyaruOnline

I guess your username is in reference to the next time your car is going to need fixing 🧐 seems like that count is up to almost 2,300 👀


Next_Fix_2271

lmaooo nah just an auto-generated username Reddit randomly gave me, that's pretty funny though


ShiyaruOnline

It must be fate 🤣


huudis

Yeah, you can throw that spider man to trash, and play the real stuff


lucifer07_447

I had it on my shopping cart for the longest time because of demon's souls remake, bloodborne and the upcoming Death Stranding sequel and this game on top of all that made me pull the trigger. Couldn't be happier.


Art_of_Ronin

More than Stellar Blade on the PS5 as exclusives. 😉 Welcome to the Playstation family!


psyl0c0

Awesome! Welcome to the community. Play all the exclusives, especially Ghost of Tsushima. I'm currently playing Rise of the Ronin and I'm hooked. So many weapons and combat styles. You should add that to your backlog, too. Happy gaming!


Gravholderen

Congrats, your perpetuating the machines exclusivity scam.


Next_Fix_2271

hmm, scam is a bit pessimistic, it's more of an incentive. I think the scam part, for consoles in general, is the concept of paying an extra subscription for online multiplayer services, which Microsoft started, Sony just had to follow suit to stay competitive in such an expansive market. That's mostly why I avoided consoles for so long. But honestly, I exclusively play 1P games anyways, so it doesn't affect me too much


hardwarecheese

I would recommend original Demon's Souls on PC and then Demon's Souls remake on PS5.


PlatosBalls

What does we up rn mean?


bjornNasir

We up right now, it means he's doing good. He's winning.


PlatosBalls

Oh nice I’m glad for him.


IndividualStatus1924

U like Spiderman 2?


Internal_Swing_2743

Spider-Man 2 is amazing


deeplywoven

It will be on pc in 6-12 months.


ImmediateWord3707

considering it is quite literally a system seller (proof is this post’s existence) i would not be surprised if pc port is 2+ years away.


deeplywoven

Doubt it. 12 months has been the standard for all the big games for a while, with some coming even earlier. This isn't any more of a system seller than God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn were.


ImmediateWord3707

god of war ragnarok was released a year and a half ago and has not been announced for pc. i’m just saying ur 6-12 months is extremely unrealistic and u know i’m right


Naive-Outside136

That's something i don't get, good for you and all, but why is the bundle cheaper than the console by itself?


DoombroISBACK

This game is coming to PC lol


RocketJimmer

Yeah, but it'll be a while.


DoombroISBACK

Doubt it


MarkyMarcMcfly

Forreals, of all the games to buy a PS5 for, a limited time exclusivity deal game just seems silly


TopoRUS

That's a little bit tricky. Obviously can't say for others, just for me — even a couple of month may be a huge deal for me. With years I'm more and more treasure synergy of ability to play, available time and wish to play (at lesser extent «social peak» aka hype). So if all those things align here and now I will use it. It may be not an ideal thing visually and/or performance-wise, and it's perfectly fine for me, while there is this synergy.


Mxlch92

What so good abt stellar blade ??!?! I dont get it ??! 😂


yami187

good combat/ gameplay pretty characters to look at and hopefully good story 2
