I've preloaded Call of the Sea... but then again... I really need to pick up Jedi Fallen Order some more too
I also preloaded Call of the Sea, but currently digging into Haven. I guess I'll check out that Destiny 2 update as well.
Call of the Sea sounds great. I'll pre... (looks at Control, Cyberpunk and DQ11 already on the ssd). Nevermind 😑
Intrigued by call of the sea but no time to play it just yet. Got to 100% Valhalla, then play through Yakuza LAD.
Started Call of the Sea last night. Happy to have finally found a game my 5 year old daughter likes to watch/play with me. She loves the setting and helping with the puzzles, which often aren't easy. Game looks gorgeous.
I really liked Starboard, wish they could release a console version.
Call of the Sea looks great, but still happily playing AC Valhalla, and with Twin Mirror, Watch Dogs, Fenyx Rising, and some other game out this week - Cyber... something? - on my hard-drive, suspect will be some time before getting to it.
Nothing for me
May give Call of the Sea a go. Not a game I’d buy but maybe worth a try on Gamepass.
Is anyone playing Haven? I’m enjoying it but it makes my series X run like arse, if I go to the dash it’s laggy and as soon as I quit the game it’s fine, as well as some drops in the actual game. Maybe a bug?
I started Call of the sea yesterday. My first impression was „Infocom with graphics“. I like these kind of games a lot.
I am curious to see how much better Destiny looks. It was a massive 70GB download for me. Thankfully I have decent fibre connectivity.
@G8crasha Destiny 2 looks and plays like a different game on the Series X. I'm blown away by the difference and that's from the One X version.
Really want to give Call of the Sea a try at some point but juggling too many other games to get round to it yet. I know, I know, first world problems....
