    Good review. PS5 exclusives continue to leave me wanting. So far I’ve successfully avoided 100% of the FOMO for not owning one.

    This was also very much on point:

    If you’re much like me you might feel this sort of thing is starting to get a bit overdone - especially within PlayStation’s first-party offerings, which, as I’ve written before, have all started to merge into one. Count how many Sony-developed games in the past five years have grapple hooks, climbable ledges, parries, gliders, RPG-lite skill trees, waist-high grass, ultra-simple environmental puzzles, and a form of rage meter that fills up until you can press L3+R3 or L2+R2 for an ultimate of some kind, and the formula doesn’t so much reveal itself as it does write it on your forehead in yellow paint.
