State of Play

So that was pretty good, I thought. A whole 45 minutes too.

Highlights were Lost Soul Aside has been on my radar for a while & continues to look good. Excited to get a release date. May 30th - only a few months to wait! :D Onimusha: Way of the Sword is looking very cool, & I'm liking the glimpses we got of the protagonist's personality. Like, that he actually has one. No taciturn lone swordsman here. And the Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny remaster looks fine. Not enthusiastic I know, but I never played this one so there's no nostalgia here for me to get super hyped. Will likely pick it up when it comes out though. Dreams of Another looks super bizarre & interesting. And artistic third person shooter with a painted art style where you create stuff by shooting it? I am intrigued. Tides of Annihilation has a cool mix of fantasy elements & post apocalyptic setting, with maybe a dash of DMC in the gameplay. I'll need to see more before I get fully interested though.

There were a few others showed off that looked interesting, but I get the feeling they won't be for me. Darwin's Paradox looks cute but that is clearly a fiddly platformer that will frustrate me. The Midnight Walk has a cool style but I don't do well with first person games (I know it's in VR also but I don't have a headset anymore & not gonna pick one up just for this sorry lol). Blue Prince, mentioned in the PS+ section, looks like an interesting puzzle game but also first person. Hell is Us has interesting vibes but I'm not sure about anything else.

There was plenty of other stuff there that I'm not into, but I know others are hyped for & I'm happy for them.
