      Yep - that's why I purchased a month membership to PS Plus… can play the game and finish it a few times, and maybe something else too, for <$20 or whatever it was a month, rather than $40. Great game though!

      You'd be better off subscribing to PS plus extra for a month. Should finish it in that time. And then play something else on the games catalogue

      It's really not. This isn't a sandbox or a simulator or anything that those preconceptions might have led you to believe.

      Think of it like any other linear indie platformer/adventure game in which you set out and go on a quest to eventually… do possibly spoiler stuff for a group of characters living in a post apocalyptical cyberpunk world - with the only caveat being that you're a cat and can do cat-like actions.

      I say this not as a negative (enjoying it a lot myself from PsPlus) but as something to temper expectations.

    • raybies on 27/07/2022 - 13:36

      I currently have a dog (Samoyed) and a cat (Ragdoll).

      Dogs are dumb, but want to please and befriend you.
      Cats; you have to negotiate the social order, once you've got that nailed they're really nice, friendly, playful and funny.

      Sometimes I wonder how dogs as a species ever survived, bcos they're so dumb they will swallow anything they pick up in their mouths… requiring $12,738 in emergency surgery to get out… literally 20mins ago I had to pull out an exploded balloon from my dogs mouth and he still hasn't had the stitches out from his last op.
      Cat = no problems and WAY less trouble AS long as you abide by the negotiated order… in my case total freedom, food 2x a day and a water fountain w/ fresh water.

      I consider dog people who have something against cats as people with an inferiority complex.

      Both my dog and cat are equally obedient, friendly and loving, and I don't believe in gimping animals, so they're free to roam the property.
      Dog does his business everywhere, no idea where the cat does his. Dog digs huge holes everywhere REALLY fast, cat sleeps in the bushes. Dog bites my fruit and destroys the veg patches. Dog steals. Dog smells. Dog leaves muddy paw prints everywhere. Dog needs running 2x a day. Dog eats 1 organic chicken every other day, cat eats one in 10 days… so dog costs 5x more in food and probably 20x more in general.

      Dog will jump up on you all wet and dirty poke his nose in your eye and lick your face all over and you have to try and hold him back so you don't have to shower again.
      Cat will jump up on your chest when you're reclined, pure his little heart out for 30mins and expect to be gently stroked/massaged in exchange.

      Both are women magnets, but the dog gets 100x more exposure.

      100 points for anybody who read this far :)

          How can you say you don't get the appeal of the franchise If you haven't played it?

          Because I've been watching trailers and reviews of the series since the PS2 days.

          The entire point of those to find out if a game appeals before spending money on it.

          The same as I've never played Last of Us, but totally do understand the appeal of those.

          • McFodder on 26/07/2022 - 18:24

            @PainToad: To be fair, God of War (2018) is a very different beast to the first 3 games in the franchise. Those were hack and slash 'I'm a badass' adventures. The most recent game has great characters and story, and more tactical gameplay.

              @McFodder: Interesting. I do see the series as mindless hack and slash. Good to see they’re moving away from that.

    My partner wanted to play this game, so upgraded my existing PS Plus membership to Extra for $5 for the last month of my 12 month membership from this expired deal - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/645637

    • Magik on 26/07/2022 - 17:24

      Btw for anyone interested upgrading from the basic PS plus (which I think is called essential) to deluxe (the highest tier) caps out to $186. So say you stack your PS plus essential to 2030, the most you'll pay to upgrade to deluxe is $186 and your good till 2030 lol

      Only worth buying this for collectors and those that want to support the devs more directly.

      Else if you just want to play it then get PS+ Extra for a month or upgrade existing sub (which will be less than this) and enjoy it along with 400 other titles.

      And yes, it's well worth playing. Fantastic concept and game well made.

      I have an 11yr old relative who finished the game in 4 hours flat, they didn't skip any of the available content in it.

      Being the game has no replayability at all (it isn't an open world game, or sandbox style game), it's definitely NOT worth paying for.

        My thoughts too - I can't believe you'd accomplish every trophy item in a single playthrough, given one involves completing the game in two hours, and another involves something which takes 50% of this.

      I am amazed at anyone that finishes this game under 10 hours. I got lost countless times. Didn't know what I was doing much of the time. Failed so many times against the Zurks and Sentinels. Despite playing it twice til the very end, I still couldn't manage to get the game finished in under 10 hours.

      I did not collect all items in both attemps either. Not close.

  • Eatslikeacat on 26/07/2022 - 17:41

    Unless it's a game I'm lining up for I normally let it cool down after the release and then I can buy the disc cheap. Who knows, it might even show up on Game Pass.
