    I've started it a couple of times, played short bursts and only as far as killing the first griffin.

    I want to like it, but it just hasn't hooked me in. The clunky controls and combat put me off, think I need to find a day I can play for a lengthy session and give it a proper chance.

    Just started Watch Dogs 2. Finished first game whenever it came out.

    Found opening of the game has a lot of gameplay mechanics thrown at you. Started the Cybercrime mission very early in game and took ages to finish the car chase piece as I didn't have many research options completed to shake them. Got there in the end.

    Good points to the game but some odd bits too.

    Only complaint I had with the Witcher 3 was that I became over-levelled way too quickly just by doing most of the optional side-quests. At least half of the game was then just spent spamming attack with no fear of dying and is the reason why I haven't touched the DLC until I actually feel like a complete replay of the game from scratch.

    Anybody know what the "Other" is in Applications in System Storage? It's taking up nearly 6gb and I've no idea why or what it is.

    From Reddit
    Other is usually reserved for the actual OS and update files. It may also include user settings and things like that. They don't let you access it cuz they don't want you to delete the OS


    Ever since they made the internet I have all the answers

    Actually should have read the posts after that one 'cos not everyone agreed with him.

    If it was for the OS wouldn't everyone's been the same size or similar size? Seen one guy on Reddit and his was taking up 33gb's

    That is exactly as far as I got myself.

    Maybe will give it another go sometime.

    Yeah I think it includes that stuff too actually. Other wouldn't be the OS as nobody has ever had access to the OS files on PS's before and they shouldn't have access to them either.

    Nope, that's got its own section.

    I don't have that folder at all.

    Settings - Storage - System Storage - Applications

    It's not a folder, if you go into applications and scroll down to the very end you'll see it, can't click into it or delete it though.

    Yep it's not a folder but I still don't have it. I scrolled through and also sorted by name, nada.

    Those are part of the games themselves, they go up with DLC.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,174 ✭✭✭ItsHoggie

    But wouldn't those get deleted when I delete the game itself? Or at least show up as part of X game in the applications.

    I tried rebuilding database too incase it was some currupted items but no joy!

    Any chance you (or anyone) got their €5 credit?

    Was meant to be delivered between 28th and 30th but have received nothing.

    I haven't gotten mine, I guess I gotta get in contact with support. I'm sure this will be a fun experience :p
