The new PS5 update 23.01-07.00.00 brings a lot of new features and useful functions. A new function is now being discussed in the community. But how many “spoilers” are there really behind it?

Sony has released a major update for the PS5. Also included is finally full Discord support on the PS5. You can read here on MeinMMO how you can set up Discord on the PS5.

In addition, the update brought a few more improvements and features. But above all, a new “function” is being discussed: If you highlight a game in your library with the controller, the game progress is displayed as a percentage.

Some believe that this is a form of spoiler and that there should be an option to hide the ad. After all, you would always know how far you were with your game.

Sony is finally bringing the feature to the PS5 today that I’ve been waiting for for 2 years

Is the appeal of playing not knowing how far along you are?

What is the criticism? The criticism is quite understandable for some on reddit. Because some users don’t want the PS5 to tell them unsolicited that the game is almost finished. That would be a form of spoiler if the console were to tell you such important information. This would be extremely annoying, especially in story-heavy games.

What do others say about it? On the other hand, some reply, there is already such a “function” in some games internally. Here you are rewarded for a certain game progress and that is not a spoiler either. And the online magazine Gamerant also considers the accusation of spoilers to be strange: Because then the time stamp on a film is already a spoiler. After all, you know right at the start after how many hours you have to look at the credits.

What do you think? Do you think the new “feature” isn’t that wild or does it bother you too when you see your game completion percentage displayed? Tell us in the comments and discuss with others.
