Godfall requires an internet connection (PS+ not required for solo play - see OP)

First time I heard this. This is even required for offline, single player. The information can be found on the official PlayStation site. I still plan on getting Godfall, but for me this unexpected and even disappointing.

Suficiente!!!!!

Im stick in PC.... no more ps5 for me until new advice

If it's like Destiny, then everything is handled server side. Character saves, loot, etc. Even when playing solo.

Yeah it feels like it's their way of controlling the loot. People can't go and hack their single player save files this way.

If this is true, it is an instant no-buy for me. However, I will wait for reviews and confirmation first.
Poeple are so blinded and preocupied to go to war for their "side" that they don't see thepoint here for poeple who could be interested in this game
it doesn't look like a full online gaas when you look at the trailers....

And your point of it saying it only say requires pa+ isn't true. Keep up.

Again

Same fucking message Destiny had

PS+ required for online play or whatever
Online play required

Guess what you can still do in Destiny? Play solo without PS+

Keep up

Well they never really did say what kinda game this was, looks like the always on line has caught people by surprise. Tbh I thought it was a hack and slash with drop in drop out coop.

Division 1 & 2 can be played 100% solo and can't be played without PS+. Diablo 4 when it comes out will guaranteed be online only on all platforms.
diablo 4 will be a strong test of will ....
if only console version or even pc one could have offline like diablo 3....
but mmo route seems to indicate otherwise

I understand why games like mmo's need to always be online, but this is a game with a single player component, so if one day the servers are shytdown, wich we know will happen, i can't play my single player game anymore?
Recent videos made me want to play this game, but if the always online thing is true, then this is a pass for me, i wont be supporting this kind of practices.

Who gives a shit if people cheat in their single player games lol
Apparently the developers do :messenger_tears_of_joy:

It's probably a thing where they will have weekly/monthly content pushes at some point where some new legendary polearm can be obtained through some difficult challenge and this is their way to keep people engaged instead of just hacking their save file.

So is this similar to Destiny’s shared world design or something? I can only see how that would require to be online anytime you play.

Really odd, it won’t affect me, I’m always online and have Plus, but there’s going to be a lot of people who can’t.

May as well make it free to play like Warframe if you’re going to have these requirements.

Sucks.
I think it looks ok and would probably give it a try (on sale) if it has a decent single player mode. But an always online requirement is usually a bad sign for single player potential.

I don't see why the Ps+ thing is surprising though. Every online only game that isn't F2P requires Ps+.
Some people also seem to be forgetting Sony is neither developing nor publishing this, it's a third party timed exclusive. Are we also going to blame Sony if there's something wrong with FFXVI or MS if Stalker 2 doesn't live up to expectations?
 
I love how some of the usual concern trolls are trying to blow this up as some huge deceptive reveal. it C for concept, F in execution trolls 👏

I don’t know what you guys expect from an online game.

They can do local saves and have the game break instantly and easily hacked for cheaters if you prefer... worked for Avengers.

The game looks fun (more so after that last in-depth gameplay trailer). I want the game to be good, but if it is forced online and requires PSPlus on *top* of that, I just can't agree that the game would be worth purchasing. That is anti-consumer practices as blatant as they can be.

Give the folks an option for instant updates by connecting online, but don't force it.

As for "sides" what are you talking about?

If you are playing Single Player, who gives a shit if it is hacked or if there are cheaters? Why punish everyone for the off chance of a few bad apples in, what has been stated is, an optional mode (Co-op)?
 
The amount of negativity is ridiculous.

It's a fucking game in the lieu of Destiny, Avengers, and Division - no fucking shit?

Shesus, you guys are annoying.

Optional? Co-operative online multiplayer is the main hook of this game. Sure, there probably be some bullshit 8 hour campaign for single player casual scrubs but that’s not the game

They’re not punishing anyone. They’re making sure their game won’t be broken by using technology accordingly.

Two reasons.

1. Offline guys will hack and cheat, and then jump online n MP mode and dominate

2. Never trust a dev saying "no microtransactions". They want everyone online so when the microtrans do come out, even just a few % of people buying stuff adds to the corporate coffers.

I've read it too. "No microtrans". I'll see it when I believe it.
