re: Deathloop - PS5

Gross oversimplification, but they could have used some of Hitmans ideas.

Arkane and IO have two really different design philosophies and I think arkane had a good concept, but the execution wasn’t as solid as I’d like. Doesnt mean it’s shite tho.

I like it.. but still having some performance issues on PC. Don't think it's worth the $49 I paid necessarily but it's getting better now that I beat the main prologue mission 'The Longest Day.'

Something to remember….drones have batteries. It helps lol.


Also…I think I just got screwed. I have the full lineup of assassins ready. I figured, lemme try some other slabs since I’ve almost exclusively been using shift and aether. So I try the havoc and kinesis ones for a more brute build.
Now…after a run…I lost my aether and kinesis slab upgrades…and I have no idea why. They were infused.

If you drop something during a run, I think you might lose it until the loop resets.

This is exactly what it was. It didn’t click with me that trinkets with them are gone too. But, yeah I did a reset and got everything back. The slab upgrades getting lost would’ve suuuuuuuuucked.

Speaking of. This has been a pretty badass more stealthy setup:
Shift with
Linger distance
Suspended if used during jump

Aether
When shooting, you only blink instead of lose invis
Standing still doesn’t use power

You can get around veeeery quickly and picking people off, even pretty close up, is a breeze

Hell yeah. I did a few a few Juliana runs the other day

It’s so funny running across different experience levels. One dude assassinates me from behind without ever seeing them. Another dude “sneaking” down a Main Street
