So my cousin and I are on different consoles. I’m on PS4 and he is on PS5. I initially searched online to see if the game supported cross-gen and everything that I read stated that it did. So my cousin and I bought the game, downloaded it and we could press invite and join each other’s games instantly. No extra settings, no extra accounts etc.. Just a very simple experience. The game is terrifyingly fun and even more so with someone to share the experience with. My only worry before purchasing the game was that I’m on an older console and that it may hold us back in some way or even cause problems, but no. The only drawback is that my loading screen is slightly longer than my cousin’s, so I am always the last one to join the lobby, but that is about it. So, to answer the question in the title, no there are no cross-gen issues whatsoever.

No PS5 version of Modern Warfare for now. Brothers in Arms or Sniper Elite 5 will give you similar large scale tactical action. I hope EA announce this at their next showcase.

So, for a few bucks and an hour or so of your time, you can test out the PSPlay app on a spare Fire Stick and see how it works for you. The app is essentially a donation to the developer that is trying to solve this problem. Go in with very low expectations. If it works fantastically, then that is a huge bonus. However, if it does not work as expected, then at least you will have learned something new. However, if you need something that 100% works and causes no headaches, then look at the various official solutions first. The Fire Stick shouldn’t be your primary means of trying to achieve this.

A comparable game to Greylands is Deep Rock Galactic. Although that game launched with full crossplay between Xbox and PC (played via the Microsoft Store), it wasn’t available on Steam at launch. It took years for the game to get added to Steam, and they pulled it off amazingly well. Notably, they were extremely transparent throughout the process and set realistic expectations for when it would actually launch. Fatshark would do well to follow that example. Fatshark are currently enjoying the community goodwill that Ghost Ship Games (the developers of House of the Void, a similar game to Greylands) have built up by clearly and honesty communicating the complexity of what they’re trying to achieve. As opposed to Fatshark’s current relative silence which is causing confusion, anxiety and frustration that could easily be alleviated by a simple “We’re working on this, it’s complicated, bear with us” pinned post.

The jailbreak rabbit hole for the PS5. I modded a few old consoles a long time ago but this is all new to me. The few jailbreaks out there are really unreliably unstable, and the pirated games you can play through them can be easily bad for your system with malware. The legal team for Sony is reportedly very aggressive, and they have even gone after to sell jailbreaks for the console. Maybe GameFly or wait for a sale instead? Your $500 console is worth more than that to you, I'm sure.

Your best game could be one that you play with a friend. Having someone to discuss with, to share “what the heck” moments, and to compare choices to can make an otherwise isolating experience a lot of fun.
Find a story-based game to play through on stream over on Discord with a buddy, or even play through simultaneously and chat through the choices and decide together. You’d be surprised how something that could otherwise be kind of awkward to play through in private can become a fun experience with a buddy. Games with lots of branching storylines like Fetish Locator or many visual novels would work really well for this kind of gameplay. “What did you choose when Character X asked Y?” becomes a really fun conversation starter instead of something that causes tension. Gaming is social too, even in some of the more solo-based genres of games.

My two cents on the matter: try both out, they’re free. Spend a Saturday setting up Retrobat, play a few games and see if it feels right for you. Then, a few days later, find a decent YouTube tutorial that sets up RetroArch from scratch in a clean fashion, and see if you prefer that workflow over Retrobat’s. The former’s presentation is arguably nice enough to not worry about the backend, while the latter provides such granular control that it can be quite addictive. However, when it comes down to it, personal preference is the ultimate deciding factor, and there’s nothing better than reading a hundred or so forum posts about something than actually using the software in question to get a better feel for which environment you can more easily manage. So, set aside a bit of time to play around with each and see which suits your style better.

Many of the dialogue options are not as simple as they read. Is that line flirty or friendly? The most romantic option can often backfire if it comes on too strong too fast. Her confidant is not about romance, it is about trust. The options that advanced the relationship with Joker the most were the ones where he offered to help her or expressed his confidence in her abilities. The lines that read as if he were offering her pity or other shallow forms of admiration for the most part fell flat. She can see right through that kind of BS from a mile away. So be sincere not smooth. That is the real guide you need.

Kids complaining about the lag of a controller while playing games is something I’m familiar with. First, close all other applications and services, as they consume system resources. Reducing the video quality in the game’s settings where possible will also help to reduce the processing time of the game data. When using a generic Bluetooth controller, update the firmware of the controller via a computer as sometimes the problem can be resolved by updating to the latest software.

I think it's pretty clear that TaleWorlds did not design Bannerlord with console play in mind. As a PC game from a certain era, everything about Bannerlord – from its deep menus to its conversations displayed in a radial choice list – is just plain better with a mouse and keyboard. Even though I really love this game, I wouldn’t recommend it to a controller-only player. It’s a lot of fighting against the interface to try to defeat Vaegirs. Play Bannerlord the way it was meant to be played: clear some space on that desktop of yours, grab a mouse and get to it!
