The right side of your controller will have a subtle vibration when you jump, the left side will slightly vibrate when you let loose an arrow and you can feel every bow draw on the adaptive triggers. The Pathless was a great experience anyway but now it is heightened by the amazing new qualities of PlayStation’s new controller. The haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are game-changing features. The Dualsense is where you will get the biggest improvement for The Pathless. Time is money though so any wiggle-room will be happily accepted. All in all, the SSD does shave a nice chunk of time off the PS5 version but the Pathless was already quite good in this department anyway, so it is by no means a game-changing feature. It’s not too shabby either way but a nice boost to load times is never frowned upon. No room for checking your Twitter or making a brew now!įrom the menu to gameplay takes 7 seconds on the Pro and 4 seconds on the PS5.
From clicking the game tile to hitting the menu screen takes 30.58 seconds on the Pro and 18.5 seconds on the PS5, not far off half the time.
The solid-state drive is a much-touted part of the PlayStation 5, but how much does it affect The Pathless? Well, quite a bit actually, I even dragged out the old PS4 Pro to do a few comparisons for you lucky people. This feature is crucial for allowing the player uninterrupted and fluid movement.The Pathless has a lovely, ethereal quality to it. Players don’t need to aim down their sights at the talismans, but rather can auto-lock onto them at the press of a single button. Talismans are dotted around the landscape which players can shoot to fill up a dash meter and rapidly navigate their way around the world. The Hunter’s weapon of choice is the bow, and the way she moves around and fights in this game is incredibly satisfying. The eagle is pivotal to the gameplay as it has a few abilities that are relied on a lot for solving puzzles as well as just getting around.Īlso worth mentioning is the fact that you’re able to pet your eagle companion as much as you like – that’s a win in our books. She’s joined by an eagle that gives her the ability to soar through the skies and navigate difficult terrain with ease. The Hunter doesn’t navigate the world on her own. You’ll always be able to figure out where you need to go next. The lack of a mini-map may be surprising and disappointing to some, but it really adds to the unique gameplay by helping to immerse players in the world more as they work to familiarise themselves with their surroundings.įear not though if you’re worried about getting lost, as a feature called “Spirit Vision” will allow you to see important points of interest around the map.
