PSBlog: Slam, smash, and boost your way to fame in Destruction AllStars, coming to PS5
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
Premise is ok, but Sony's character design is C-tier. Which is not what you really want for a character led title.
The concept for this game is very intriguing to me
However:
- $70 price point
- No gameplay
- Microtransactions
Come on now.

The biggest problem a lot PS5 games are having right now is that we know fuck all about them. When you couple that with knowing even less about the system infrastructure itself and charging a premium on top of it, good luck!
I know there's still over a month to go, but the problem is people are heading into the holidays during a pandemic and very contentious election year. Time to stop playing this marketing strategy game and tell us why we should care.

Yeah, this screams the type of game that's important to build an early playerbase.
Do free to PS5 buyers through the end of the year and then charge $40 or whatever for it. If it catches on then they'll easily make that back in new players and in MTX.
In-app purchases are confirmed
Microtransactions will not "PROBABLY" be in the game. They are in the game. It says "In-app purchases" on the official site: https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/games/game/destruction-allstars-ps5.3005732
Fuck this. Microsoft also has games with microtransactions, but at least they are 80 euros... per 6-7 months via GamePass, lmao.

Thought we were gonna get Kratos ramming his viking tank into Raiden's cardboard caravan. Am disappointed.
I'm interested in this game but need to see gameplay but this could have easily been an opportunity to make Twisted Metal.
Really sad that this game is launching at $69.99 exclusively to an expensive launch console. I think it's pretty much dead. Maybe free to play will save it down the road.
Looking forward to seeing more gameplay. Looked fun in the June event. Like the character designs as well.
Folks, you better be used to the $70/80€ range. I'm not saying it's good but that's what it is. Regarding the micro-transactions, it'll likely be for cosmetics purpose so if you don't want to invest your money into that, what's the problem? Aside these points, DAS seems fun to play yeah. Can't wait to sse the gameplay trailer soon.
Not a purchase for me yet but as more is shown leading up to launch you never know! Put this in same spot as Godfall for now, a wait and see. Thank god we got Demons Souls and Spiderman to be the staples.

I want to bring up the example of Rocket League which absolutely blew up in popularity when it became a monthly free game for PS+ subscribers. Word of mouth pushed it hard and I really feel the same could be done here, especially if the game turns out to actually be good. Not to mention it being a launch game too.
Vehicular combat games aren't really a thing nowadays so the devs are fighting an uphill battle. I just don't understand why it's £70 lol. I guarantee you it'll be put on PS+ in like 7 months from launch just like Onrush and no one will care because way more games will have released for the PS5 at that point. It won't have that launch game advantage.
Just show some damn gameplay already. Having some devs play a single match would do more PR for the game than these blog posts.
You say it's sarcastic but I feel this might be the same situation. Maybe they don't have to worry with the next gen hype possibly carrying it, but I didn't think it'd be a full 70.
Yeah.. I'll give it a go when it's in the bargain bin or on PS Plus... which thankfully shouldn't take too long given the price point of €80/£70 here in Europe. Even the casual gamers aren't going to pay that much as an impulse buy of a new IP on launch day. Who in their right mind thought this would be a good price point for this game?
Yeah, it looks amazing. Lucid said there's a trailer coming soon. Can't wait to see it.All concerns about pricing etc aside...
THIS looks gorgeous. And I love a car combat game. Interest piqued! WIll look forward to some hands on preview stuff.
This looks like a lot of fun. However, I would have paid $30, mayyybe $40 for this, but certainly not $70.

Lmfao, glad I'm not the only person who had that feeling. I mentioned in my post above that it'll go to PS+ in like 7 months from launch just like Onrush and nobody will care.
No multiplayer-only game should be $70. ESPECIALLY when it has microtransactions. The price of admission is way too high and basically killed the chances of it being a success.
Exactly. Though seemingly fun to play, it looks extremely generic - both games.
Just what the PS5 needed, its very own Bleeding Edge.
This$70 game that probably has micro-transactions? No thanks.

Sorry but I already feel bad about higher prices. Imagine buying it at that price with MTX. Shame because the game looks fun.
