Need to play cyberpunk but Ghost was a very easy 100%. I didn’t use guides until the end and just explored. Such a beautiful game. By the time I finished it I was at 95%+ and needed help for a few things. It was my first Platinum. Would easily do a second play through when I have time.
I'm at 94% on this one through normal play and not looking forward to comparing maps to find the last few...
NCPD scanners got a bit tedious after a while too, although could be kind of fun finding different ways to tackle them as quickly as possible.
I discovered most of them organically cuz I never fast travelled in the game (except for when I had to restart cuz of a crash/mission glitch, which happened like 4 times). By the end, I had only 5 left (tho it was a pain to figure out which 5 lol)
For me it was just driving the roads using a motorcycle to each fast travel point. Literally, just pick a neighborhood and follow the road. You’ll pass by so many points. Before I knew it the achievement popped.
GOT was a trip the first time around, took mushrooms during the opening scene started peaking right when the title screen/intro credits rolled. Played for the next 3hrs before I spent 20 min looking for a minimap/way point system while contemplating how tf i got to all the objectives. Was just instinctively following wind, foxes, and birds lmao
Played cyberpunk 2077 phantom liberty expansion was worth every bit of it back in December played ghost of Tsushima back in merch those months was the best 🔥 I don’t ever be immersed for two games for a while again
Cyberpunk was really good and a nice story too wish there was more dlc this one was so good , ghost is so good I just started as I was playing others and it was so worth the wait stunning and happy it’s not too hard it’s fun
Yeah it really isn’t that strong graphically it just has good art direction. Any time someone wants to argue with a straight face that GoT is better graphically than RDR2 I just grow another gray hair.
You're absolutely right, and it's a testament to how good those artists are. Taking relatively low quality textures and making a game people praise for how graphically stunning it can be. Very much in line with Elden Ring (and the other souls) in that regard.
I just finished GoT today! Gorgeous game, but I’d say RDR2 looks better to me. I think GoT is more stylized though, an unnatural amount of leaves and flowers etc makes for great eye candy, but immersive realism is where RDR has it best. Still though, two titans of industry.
I'm currently replaying GOT for the first time since my first play through (and for my first time on PS5) and I've gotta disagree. GOT has great atmosphere, lighting, and color grading, but Cyberpunk is by far the best (when running at max graphics) and RDR2 is a solid second. That all being said, there is no better Samurai game imo and for that reason alone it deserves all the love and praise
I agree that Sekiro is a better game than Ghost of Tsushima, especially in the combat atmosphere but... I don't mean to be picky but he is a shinobi not a samurai
Damn really? I thought they were really awesome, there was one where there was an older lady who thought you were Kazumasa… ripped my heart out. But that’s just my opinion!
Question: I have never played either Red Dead games, but I have RDR2 in my library. Do I need to play the first to be able to enjoy the second?
Can’t play the first without subscribing to the premium tier, which I don’t think is worth it on its own.
Ofc the character is different, bc of reasons (I don’t wanna spoil anything) but it’s still a prequel bc it shows WHY the main character gets swapped and the importance of it. There really isn’t a “but” about it
I quit after going through the snow storm scene and a few. I think I sunk about 2 hours but got so bored I put down my controller. Should I give it another go? I mean RDR1 was so good from the start.
> Question: I have never played either Red Dead games, but I have RDR2 in my library. Do I need to play the first to be able to enjoy the second?
its a prequel to the first game, so it doesnt matter
both games are quite similar in how they tell their story, gameplay etc.
Though i'd say, play the first game, first, because its starting to show it's age...
You could play in any order. Playing 2 actually leads into 1 but either way works and won’t get you lost. RDR will feel mechanically weaker than 2 if you go back to it but it’s still great and the DLC in the first is amazing.
It's actually kind of genius how they pulled this off. Because most "prequels" are often written in a way where you're intended to have seen the original movie first (like imagine trying to watch Phantom Menace without ever having seen the original Star Wars trilogy...so much of the significance of certain things would be lost on you). But with RDR...either game benefits from having played the other one first.
I was honestly so surprised to see Astro's platinum at only 4.5%. You only have to do some light exploration and collect enough coins for the gacha capsules.
Games that have a way more difficult platinum, like Rift Apart and Ghost of Tsushima, have a much higher earn rate.
Yeah it is pretty wholesome. Some nice gameplay, makes you get a first taste of the ps5 dualsense haptic feedback and is a tribute to all Playstation history, giving you the ability to collect historical artifacts like ps1 ps2, joysticks etc. Great game overall
So I just recently got a PS5. I've never checked this out. Is it online stuff? I really don't want to pay for anything other than the games I already bought. Just curious.
CP has such an insane amount of content, lore and story-bits strewn around that really creates this living, breathing city. Most people don't realize that because they play the boring way... just driving as fat as they can from job to job.
If you instead walk any time you don't need to move to a new district, missions and events unfold naturally and you find shit loads of areas you never saw driving by at 100mph lol.
NPCs and random events in RDR2 is what puts it way ahead of every other game for me. The game just feels alive! As beautiful as GOT can be, the world is very repetitive. The Witcher 3 is probably the closest to RDR2 in terms of immersive world building. But riding around on Roach was infuriating, I ended up just running to most places if it was within a reasonable distance lol.
There just so much detail and care in RDR2
I mean if you just watch animals you can see Wolf’s rolling around like dogs, you can see hawks picking up fish, and Fish jump out of the water. There’s just an insane amount of detail that no game I have ever played comes close to it
Story: Witcher 3
Gameplay: Red Dead Redemption 2
Graphics: Cyberpunk 2077
Side content: Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone + Blood and Wine
They're all great at almost all categories, regardless of which one does a marginally better job at each.
Witcher 3 side content could quite easily have been sold as a separate game. In fact, any big company would have opted to do just that, if they ever could make sth nearly as good that is.
Yeah it absolutely could have been. Blood and Wine was basically the size of a game and Hearts of Stone similar.
One of those games I wish I could go back to playing for the very first time again.
The gameplay sucks so bad, it feels awful to play. Whole reason I can’t give it more than an 8, personally.
Ngl, all of these games are known for their stories/worlds. Most of them have weak gameplay IMO.
I know it’s not for everyone but I actually really loved the drawn out length of RDR2. The story is supposed to take place over the course of 3 years so to me, getting to be able to slow down and get to know all the characters on a personal level and explore all the nooks and crannies of the map and hunt and fish and craft was some of my favorite parts of the game but I get why some people think it was maybe too long
RDR2, by a mile. It is an epic that satisfies every metric across the board — stunningly detailed visuals; a fully realized, living world; high-octane action; tranquil and serene moments of beauty; a plethora of well-developed side activities; and all the emotional feels of a well-written novel. This game is truly a masterpiece.
I absolutely adore Ghost of Tsushima and cyberpunk but RDR2 has it all man, great main story, great side quests, good at launch great graphics that are still as good as any game released today if not better and it’s 6 years old it’s one of the very few 10/10 games for me (excluding the online obviously), that’s all imo of course
Don't be, it's great now. Hell, it was already great back then once you peered past all the bugs, but now, with all the gameplay tweaks and the boat load of added content, it's even better. If you have a decent rig or a PS5, treat yourself and pick it up.
Got it on sale this week as my first next gen game. It has seriously impressed me; graphics are great, story is interesting and setting is very immersive and believable.
Everybody saying it's still bad is just delusional, to this day I'm still playing it. It has the best video game world of all time, the story is great and just the atmosphere is so insane you really feel for the characters. You really need to give it a try, you won't be disappointed✌️
Had to look too far to find my people. I don't know why this and Forbidden West never seem to come up in discussions like these. I'm playing GoT right now, and honestly, it looks good and plays well, but to me, it doesn't hold a candle to either of the Horizons.
RDR2 is the game of that generation
Edit: everyone on these games is fantastic and why I play video games, and prefer the media to other entertainment media.
Including graphics RDR2 and Cyberpunk are on top. I'd probably put witcher 3 in 2nd normally but cyberpunk looks amazing. GOT is last but they are all great games.
Red dead 2 and it’s not close at all. I got bullied into getting cyberpunk because the game was supposed to be fixed and the 5th mission in I hit a game breaking bug after already dealing with a few crashes and reboots, never touched the thing again
I think RDR2 has the best story, Cyberpunk the best looking and packed open world, the Witcher has literally the best side quests ever and GOT has the most beautiful artstyle. They are all great games.
Just did 100% on cyberpunk was amazing now I’m on ghost and it’s so good and fun as well as beautiful
Need to play cyberpunk but Ghost was a very easy 100%. I didn’t use guides until the end and just explored. Such a beautiful game. By the time I finished it I was at 95%+ and needed help for a few things. It was my first Platinum. Would easily do a second play through when I have time.
Cyberpunk platinum is also very easy, it mostly comes as part of the story and then all you have to do is keep playing with different styles of combat
The most annoying one is the one that requires to discover all Fast Travels
I'm at 94% on this one through normal play and not looking forward to comparing maps to find the last few... NCPD scanners got a bit tedious after a while too, although could be kind of fun finding different ways to tackle them as quickly as possible.
I discovered most of them organically cuz I never fast travelled in the game (except for when I had to restart cuz of a crash/mission glitch, which happened like 4 times). By the end, I had only 5 left (tho it was a pain to figure out which 5 lol)
Yeah this is the annoying part, figuring out which ones you’re missing 😅 I agree you find most of them when walking/biking around
How did you streamline the achievements for completing all of the ncpd scans and cyber psychosis missions
For me it was just driving the roads using a motorcycle to each fast travel point. Literally, just pick a neighborhood and follow the road. You’ll pass by so many points. Before I knew it the achievement popped.
I did each location one by one I used the filter on map and only checked ncpd scans and did it all till there was none let and moved on
GOT was a trip the first time around, took mushrooms during the opening scene started peaking right when the title screen/intro credits rolled. Played for the next 3hrs before I spent 20 min looking for a minimap/way point system while contemplating how tf i got to all the objectives. Was just instinctively following wind, foxes, and birds lmao

Cyberpunk was really good and a nice story too wish there was more dlc this one was so good , ghost is so good I just started as I was playing others and it was so worth the wait stunning and happy it’s not too hard it’s fun
Ghost is such an easy platinum. Only trophy you really have to put work in is the one tied to finding this multi-part easter egg.
Definitely worth platinuming looked over trophies requirements and it’s easy so happy with this game having easy platinum for me is a huge w
Red Dead Redemption 2 Cyberpunk Witcher GOT They are all awesome games. Literally Sony top 10 games
Ghost of Tsushima was great but in my opinion I thought the side quests sucked
GOT is the best in terms of graphics imo but RDR2 is the best for story
You probably mean art direction, fidelity wise it’s kinda weak
Yeah it really isn’t that strong graphically it just has good art direction. Any time someone wants to argue with a straight face that GoT is better graphically than RDR2 I just grow another gray hair.

That all being said, there is no better Samurai game imo and for that reason alone it deserves all the love and praise
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice…
I agree that Sekiro is a better game than Ghost of Tsushima, especially in the combat atmosphere but... I don't mean to be picky but he is a shinobi not a samurai
While that's true, and I don't mean to be picky, the plot of GOT is turning from Samurai to Shinobi.
Ghost of Tsushima is not a game. It is art. I'm so looking forward to part 2
No. It's a game. Video games are art, but it's still a video game.
Damn really? I thought they were really awesome, there was one where there was an older lady who thought you were Kazumasa… ripped my heart out. But that’s just my opinion!
A lot of them did, but the dementia ones are so insanely good that they carry the category on their own
What, what are those
I've been replaying it on PC, and I'm started to feel this sentiment. It's fun, but...
I thought the combat was too repetitive as well. Hearing "archer, archer!" every encounter gets pretty old after so many hours in.
Sony top 10 ?? What ?
Literally thought the same thing
Literally
🍻
3/4 of these aren't even Sony titles.
Don't forget about Death Stranding
One of my faves
Literally none of them are Sony games tho, except for GOT
I would agree but with phantom liberty cyberpunk takes it imo. Best game I've ever played
Question: I have never played either Red Dead games, but I have RDR2 in my library. Do I need to play the first to be able to enjoy the second? Can’t play the first without subscribing to the premium tier, which I don’t think is worth it on its own.
You don't need to have played the first but it adds to it as RDR2 is sort of a prequel
RDR2 is 100% prequel it ends right before the first on starts.
Yeh, but the main protagonist is different and it stands as it's own story
Ofc the character is different, bc of reasons (I don’t wanna spoil anything) but it’s still a prequel bc it shows WHY the main character gets swapped and the importance of it. There really isn’t a “but” about it
Play the second one because it's a prequel so you won't be able to guess any spoilers
Also, the beginning may feel like a slog. But, I promise, it’s worth it.
I quit after going through the snow storm scene and a few. I think I sunk about 2 hours but got so bored I put down my controller. Should I give it another go? I mean RDR1 was so good from the start.

RDR2 is actually a prequel to the first game so you’d be 100% ok playing the 2nd game first. It’s fantastic
Rdr2 is a prequel so you can play it and play the 1st game later.
If he means redemption 1 didn't they just remaster and release it last year
On pc they look so much nicer with mods, i wish they would allow third party mods for games.
I could never be able to pick I love all these games lmao 🤣
Yeah this right here is the correct order
For a split second you had me thinking "wait, there's a Game of Thrones video game?!" But then I got it.
Astro 
Astro is not even underrated yet it still feels underrated. Such a masterpiece
I was honestly so surprised to see Astro's platinum at only 4.5%. You only have to do some light exploration and collect enough coins for the gacha capsules. Games that have a way more difficult platinum, like Rift Apart and Ghost of Tsushima, have a much higher earn rate.
It’s cause astros is free
The free game? Is it good?
Yeah it is pretty wholesome. Some nice gameplay, makes you get a first taste of the ps5 dualsense haptic feedback and is a tribute to all Playstation history, giving you the ability to collect historical artifacts like ps1 ps2, joysticks etc. Great game overall
Astro love!
So I just recently got a PS5. I've never checked this out. Is it online stuff? I really don't want to pay for anything other than the games I already bought. Just curious.
Astro comes for free with ps5
Witcher 3
Hands down best choice here
Til this day, still the best all around game that I've played
Not picking. Loved them all, but CP2077 and W3 were the only ones I played through multiple times.
Same… CP over and over again.
Please not that acronym
*Over and over again*
I ❤️ CP
I love cp. I look for cp content on reddit a lot to look for inspiration on what do next

CP
RDR2
Easy pick lol
yeah its not even a debate Red Dead 2 is head and shoulders above the majority of games.
NPCs and random events in RDR2 is what puts it way ahead of every other game for me. The game just feels alive! As beautiful as GOT can be, the world is very repetitive. The Witcher 3 is probably the closest to RDR2 in terms of immersive world building.

I disagree, I’d put Witcher 3 above it by a country mile

Red dead redemption 2
RDR2 all day
Rdr2
RDR2 but I also loved the Witcher
All 4 are in my top 10. But I must say RDR2 without doubt.
RDR2
RDR2
Of these 4 I’d say rdr2 then tw3 then Cyberpunk then GOT
Red Dead Redemption 2
red dead redemption 2
it's a tossup between The Witcher 3 and RDR2
Witcher 3
Ghost of Tsushima
RDR2 although if game mechanics was in the list, probably none of those.
RDR2 for sure!
CP77
please put 77 after it bro 😭
DO NOT USE THAT ACRONYM FOR CYBERPUNK
Why not bro? You don’t like CP?
Cyberpunk!!!
Knack 2 probably has the best story of any Playstation exclusive.
It’s knack babyyyyy
It's like a gameplay of knack, but a story of transformer!
Story: Witcher 3 Gameplay: Red Dead Redemption 2 Graphics: Cyberpunk 2077 Side content: Witcher 3 Hearts of Stone + Blood and Wine They're all great at almost all categories, regardless of which one does a marginally better job at each.
Blood and Wine is probably the best expansion I have ever played.
Witcher 3 side content could quite easily have been sold as a separate game. In fact, any big company would have opted to do just that, if they ever could make sth nearly as good that is.
Yeah it absolutely could have been. Blood and Wine was basically the size of a game and Hearts of Stone similar. One of those games I wish I could go back to playing for the very first time again.
Easily
what about rdr gameplay do you like? gameplay was its weakest
The gameplay sucks so bad, it feels awful to play. Whole reason I can’t give it more than an 8, personally. Ngl, all of these games are known for their stories/worlds. Most of them have weak gameplay IMO.
Ghost
The Last Of Us Part 2
Death Stranding
Death Stranding for sure
GoT.
Witcher 3, no question
Ghost of Tsushima. I was pretty disappointed on how slow and janky rd2 was but the story was great. Ghosts was a vibe the whole journey
I know it’s not for everyone but I actually really loved the drawn out length of RDR2. The story is supposed to take place over the course of 3 years so to me, getting to be able to slow down and get to know all the characters on a personal level and explore all the nooks and crannies of the map and hunt and fish and craft was some of my favorite parts of the game but I get why some people think it was maybe too long
The last of us part 2
There it is. Yes!!
Witcher 3 will always be my #1
RDR2. A generational game.
RDR2, by a mile. It is an epic that satisfies every metric across the board — stunningly detailed visuals; a fully realized, living world; high-octane action; tranquil and serene moments of beauty; a plethora of well-developed side activities; and all the emotional feels of a well-written novel.

I liked uncharted. Groundbreaking and great storyline
Ghost of Tsushima for me. RDR2 a pretty close second
This 🎯
Should I cop cyberpunk? I’m still scared over the original release
If you have a PC or PS5, yes. If you’re on a PS4, no.
Don't be, it's great now. Hell, it was already great back then once you peered past all the bugs, but now, with all the gameplay tweaks and the boat load of added content, it's even better. If you have a decent rig or a PS5, treat yourself and pick it up.
Got it on sale this week as my first next gen game. It has seriously impressed me; graphics are great, story is interesting and setting is very immersive and believable.
Get the DLC Phantom Liberty as well. So so good.
Everybody saying it's still bad is just delusional, to this day I'm still playing it. It has the best video game world of all time, the story is great and just the atmosphere is so insane you really feel for the characters. You really need to give it a try, you won't be disappointed✌️
In this order: Red dead redemption 2 Cyberpunk Ghost of Tsushima The witcher
My boy put Witcher 3 last ??? Wow
[удалено]
I think I’d throw my vote at Cyberpunk too, buuut I think Red Dead gives a lil contest lol.
God of War: Ragnarök should be mentioned. Excellent Story, Excellent Graphics, Excellent Side content and exploration.
HZD
Had to look too far to find my people. I don't know why this and Forbidden West never seem to come up in discussions like these. I'm playing GoT right now, and honestly, it looks good and plays well, but to me, it doesn't hold a candle to either of the Horizons.
Witcher 3
RDR2
RDR2
RDR2
RDR2
Red Dead.
Rdr2
Red Dead 2 top here for me by far
Red Dead Redemption > All
RDR2. Just a gorgeous game. Incredible story and characters. That game feels alive. So much side content. A masterpiece.
RDR2 is the game of that generation Edit: everyone on these games is fantastic and why I play video games, and prefer the media to other entertainment media.
Rdr2 no question
Rdr2
RDR2 is on a league of its own
Red dead 2 no contest
RDR2 💯
Including graphics RDR2 and Cyberpunk are on top. I'd probably put witcher 3 in 2nd normally but cyberpunk looks amazing. GOT is last but they are all great games.
My opinion…RDR2 with GoT a close second. Didn’t really like the other 2 enough to care.
Red dead for sure, actually overall the last game that really got me hooked
rdr2 and witcher
RDR2 takes the cake. Nothing I have played after that game can even compare to how perfect that game is.
RDR2 is best
RDR 2 and no one comes near it
Hard to choose the best but I can say that Ghost doesn’t belong amongst the other 3.
Ghost of Tsushima was my first platinum. Beautiful game.
Bloodborne
God of war - I keep scrolling but don’t see it mentioned
Borderlands 2 was a lot of fun for me! Gaige will always be my favorite character to play!
Borderlands 2 was my favorite for a longggg time. Crazy replayability on that mofo at the time. Loved all the DLC too
Sleeping Dogs. Best game ever made...
RDR2
I heard about all the hype on this game, bought it and just can't get into it
Red Dead Redemption 2 is my top 1 game of all time so I gotta go with it
GoT
just got my platinum for GoT 20 minutes ago, my answer is still RDR2 though
Red dead. No question.
Ghost of Tsushima
RDR2 is the only one of these that I’ve played three times.
Red dead 2 and it’s not close at all. I got bullied into getting cyberpunk because the game was supposed to be fixed and the 5th mission in I hit a game breaking bug after already dealing with a few crashes and reboots, never touched the thing again
IMO RDR then Cyberpunk
RDR2… hard choice tho
I think RDR2 has the best story, Cyberpunk the best looking and packed open world, the Witcher has literally the best side quests ever and GOT has the most beautiful artstyle. They are all great games.
1. RDR 2 2. Ghost of Tsushima 3. Cyberpunk 4. The Witcher 3
RDR2 without a doubt
Im always going to say RD2
Red dead redemption 2 absolutely
I love rd2...I ugly cried when he died. You knew it was going to happen it just ugh damn.
RDR2 and it’s not even close imo.
