PS5 Pro is expected late 2024, with the PS6 expected 2028. If Microsoft is to try to keep pace, as someone who doesn’t have either console, it will be interesting to see if they also brand this as a mid-generation refresh or if they stick to their guns they’ve been touting for a while of being “beyond generations”.
A reason I might buy a console used is because certain titles, like Nier Automata, were poorly ported to PC. I love that game, but the Steam version crashed a lot for me.
There’s a fan made patch that fixes the major problems of the port. I played it totally fine using that.
Without that fan patch, I wasn’t able to play at all. But further into the game, it started crashing every 10 - 20 minutes. Think the particular Radeon card I had at the time was poor compatibility. nVidia users might have had more luck.
It actually did end up getting a patch years later

I played before it though with I think the far mod and had no issues. Never bothered trying to play without the mod.
Yeah, I heard it fixed most of the issues. Haven’t tried it yet. I have since switched from an AMD to nVidia card so maybe it works now.
