Highguard Ending Already? Give It A Chance | The Press Start Podcast press-start.com.au/p...

PlayStation State of Play: Wolverine, Saros & More! — The Press Start Podcast press-start.com.au/p...

I was having such fun on this episode until @jamzy.bsky.social took the joy out of defeating Moorwing pre-patch.

I sense some score revisions might be necessary here...

This week's Press Start Podcast is going to be a controversial one, I can tell. I won't reveal anything yet, but let this screenshot serve as a clue.

And a clip of one of the abilities I was loving mwahahahaah 🔥

If you've made it to the end of these thoughts, he's a funny clip of Brodie whiffing the timing of a grenade throw 🤣

I don't think it *needs* more content at launch, especially given it's included in various subscriptions, but long-term I think it'd need it to sustain a regular player base (should it be their desire).

❔More jobs and requisitons over time 🤔

Still got plenty of unlocks to see out myself, and eager to dive back in. There's a grind, but I'm not convinced the unlocks deeper into the game really introduce anything new—just make what you've already done easier.

🔻 Needs more/better rewards

Loved playing Firebreak with @brodie_dg 😍 He's right it's a missed opportunity to embed more story, but I'm very upbeat about the game otherwise.

✅ Great with a squad!
✅ Elemental synergy 💧+⚡= 💀
✅ Remedy saniness
✅ Helldiver's style progression 🏆

Super excited to play Split Fiction and stoked to hear @shannongrixti.bsky.social and @brodiedg.bsky.social loved it!

Totally agree! All these leaks are disappointing and frustrating.

Nintendo's eventual reveal of the Switch 2 is likely to be really anti-climactic at this point, given we've aleady had such a good look at the console. I'm sure they'll have a trick or two up their sleeve, but it's definitely taken some of the wind out of the sails.

This was a really fun episode! Can't wait to see none of these predictions come true...

We spoke about it more on this week's podcast:

Here's my review of LEGO Horizon Adventures. Sadly, I wasn't totally enamoured. I was let down by the combat and lack of exploration/interactivity in each LEGO. For the sake of simplicity, it sacrifices the best elements of both LEGO and Horizon games past.
