There’s more opportunity to pet dogs in the game. And they give you better rewards.
I would have thought the rights holders to the Tolkien properties would be a bit more particular about what projects they licence?
“The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is a game I’d been looking forward to for a while now…” Really? I guess there’s always that one person? 🤷♂️
The GP situation would be a non-issue if Xbox could just develop good exclusives. It's crazy how they've been unable to do that as PS pumps out a seemingly-endless series of iconic exclusive games.
This game looks pretty cool.
Im playing it right now on GP and I'd say you're right on the money. I'm 10 hours in and it's ... alright. If I didn't have a new personal rule about finishing games I'd likely have bailed on it a few hours ago for something better.
Yeah, for me Eastward was a good example. I don't think I would have ever bought that game, but I played it on GP and it was great. And I'd say GP saved me money on 12 Minutes, because I found out quickly that it was NOT for me. I could have easily bought that game and regretted it if not for GP.
I don't see why you'd ever play Redfall when there's so many other games out there that (a) have similar themes/gameplay/mechanics, and (b) do all those things better. The reviews show that it isn't really about the bugs, it's just not a good game even when it works.
They also wanted to bring the ending of TLoU 1 in line with Part 2, because Part 2 retcons the ending of Part 1 for … reasons …
“No one says "look at all these wires connected to my game console." Why VR?”
Because with the PSVR, the wires are attached to your head. They flop around and get tangled up around you. I have one and I like it a lot. But the attached wire part is annoying. I prefer to use my Quest 2 for that one reason.
"Restartamendo!!"
CrimsonWing: You encapsulated my thoughts perfectly. I've watched the videos and the dialogue isn't THAT bad. It could be better for sure. Plus as you say, I'm playing a game right now that's FULL of cheesy dialogue and the game is still considered a classic by many.
I think there's a "piling on" effect that occurs when a highly-anticipated game underwhelms people, then the online backlash gets more and more extreme and meme-ified, to the poin...
The problem wasn't streaming games as a concept; it was Google's notorious track record of announcing new tech and then almost immediately abandoning it. People didn't trust Stadia to still be around a year after it launched, so they never bought into it.
Reviewer raves about how great it is all the way through, finishes by giving it a 7/10, naturally.
@crazyCoconuts: Oh yeah true. Good point.
I loved As Dusk Falls, and I would recommend it to anyone to play. However, I could see why people wouldn't include it on a "Best of 2022" list. As enjoyable as it was in its narrative, I would say it lacked in gameplay. It was more of a "choose your own adventure" in that way. For some gamers, these kinds of games will never be considered on the same level as other genres.
Exactly. The Vita was great technology but Sony abandoned it really. I would very much worry that they’d do the same with a Vita 2.
This game is honestly looking like it’ll be amazing.
I love the Steam Deck for PC games but also Xbox Cloud Gaming. It’s like have two consoles in one handheld.
On the go? How?
