Such a good game! My cat was also particularly invested in the story as well.
I really hope they make a sequel because I would love to see more of the world and all our robot friends again.

Same! It was such a cute game and really fun. I feel like there’s more than enough room for a sequel by the way the game ended.
Seriously! I absolutely loved it. It was so nice just getting to explore and puzzle things out. A good balance of that plus a few intense moments. Just an awesome experience!
Eh, I found it decent. For $30 bucks, it didnt give me nearly enough play time to make it worth it for me. For $60 there are games that gave me 300+ hours worth of play time. There wasnt any replayability. However, I did find it a cute concept and the cat was absolutely adorable. And it upsetted me whenever the cat took any damage, so I did grow an attachment to the cat. But over all, it just wasnt for me
It's available on PC and there's a sale on Steam too, 25% off, biggest discount so far. Been looking to pick it up.
I’ve been thinking about picking it up in the current Steam sale. Roughly how many hours do yo think it takes to complete at a pretty slow/casual pace? Mainly wondering if it’s worth $22.50 as I’ve read it’s a somewhat short game. Was going to wait for it to come down closer to $15 but I’m ready for a new casual/cute game now so I could be convinced to get it sooner rather than later lol
I’ve never quite understood the “dollar to hour” ratio people seem to crave. Games are the only media that people apply this “rule” to. I’ve never heard of someone talk about the Dollar to Time ratio of a book, or a movie, or tv series. They mostly just talk about how it’s a good or bad series. Maybe I’m off base, but I just find it weird.
I'd say it's worth $22.50
5-6 hours if you are a seasoned gamer, 10ish if its a newer realm for you.
Not sure of the exact hours, but I finished it over the course of three evenings after work. I think it's worth that price, though: the gameplay is unqiue, the visuals are beautiful, and it's an immersive and emotional story.
I'm only a little bit into now but I already feel like it was worth the money. Thanks for the feedback, looking forward to the rest of it
Awesome, so glad to hear you're enjoying it! :)
Have fun, real heart-warming story. Especially relaxing after a long day of work!
I really loved Stray. It was short but I didn’t feel cheated, I just felt like they could have done more. There were some sections I felt they could have expanded on and I was always hoping there would be DLC or another story or something set in the same world.
It was a short game but it did more in 8 hours than I've seen some games cover in 60 and I've never felt that invested in wanting to make sure the protagonist is okay
I'm rather new to Playstation. What do you mean with 'it's going away soon'? If I have a Playstation subscription and 'buy' it (for free, as part of the subscription) can I keep playing it? Or do I need to complete it before a cut of date?
PS+ is like Netflix: they get "licenses" for the game for a certain duration, allowing us the download and play the game, but once the agreement has reached its deadline, then the game is gone. Hope that clears this up.
As long as you download it now, then you can keep the game as long as you're a member of PS+. So if you even think you might play it in the future, download it now. Once it rotates off the subscription, then it won't be available for download anymore (but people who already downloaded it can keep it).
Slightly off topic but do you find PS+ worth it? I'm toying with getting it at the moment
You have 2 choices really:
PS+ Extra or PS+ Premium
Essential isn't worth it IMO as it's like 2-3 games for free (that you keep forever) while you can pay a couple extra bucks for Extra and get an ENTIRE catalog of amazing AAA and indie games.
The main, and the most impactful difference between Extra and Premium is the ability to stream, which consequently allows you to play older games (ps3, ps2, ps1, PSP, etc). Game trials are basically short ass demos which I have only used once (for TLOU:R) and haven't touched since. I forget what other options premium comes with since I barely use the other options apart from ps3 game streaming.
To answer your question : look at the catalog and if there are 5+ games that you probably think you would like them, then I would say yes you would enjoy PS+ since it introduces you to a crazy big catalog with hidden gems that I guarantee you would not have bought otherwise.
If you have more questions I'll be happy to answer !
This is only a thing for the monthly essential games and for the, now debunked, PlayStation game collection, which was for ps5 users and allowed them to keep like 10-15 games forever if you continued to have a ps+ subscription.
Thanks for reminding me! I was really enjoying that game but got distracted by other things and forgot about it. I need to go back and finish it
Can't recommend playing it on Steam Deck enough. Amazing pick-up-and-play game that looks incredible on the screen!
I agree, it's great on the Steam Deck. I played for a bit on my laptop and it was fine there but it was a much better experience on the Deck.
