Have 100%ed it + dlc. Looking forward to this free update and Terran Armada for sure. Can't be worse than Shattered Space, which was absolute trash and a joke at $30.
I've been a fan of this franchise since Day 1 when the original was a lesser known Arcade title. State of Decay 2 did improvements in some areas and walked backwards in others like Story and Characters. I didn't vibe with any of the new characters compared to Marcus. I really hope this game launches soon as I had been wondering how development was going. Would be nice to get it before Helix
Was a day 1 fan of the first game and every game afterwards has been a downgrade in every way and it felt like Square Enix were milking it at that point. I just don't care anymore, but I will say that I am happy that this game is $40 as it shouldn't be a full priced title and more games should follow this formula, but even then I see it having 0 replay value for me and if I care enough I'll just watch it on YouTube for free. If I had the choice to pay $40 for this or FF7 Remake, then it would easily be FF7
I am glad that Series S happened as it was a good idea and a good product, but I believe it was a learning lesson for Microsoft due to forcing teams to optimize the game for both S and X and this had unforseen issues like Baldur's Gate 3 getting delayed on Xbox for awhile because that team were having issues with the Series S version. I really hope that next gen we have a single Xbox all gen long with Helix and there be no cheaper alternative. Microsoft really needs a good start for next gen and having a single console to worry about such as what devs worked with this gen with Sony having a single Ps5 will be a big improvement.
Microsoft owns Activision and thus owns GUN. This one was a huge missed opportunity to not have as a backwards compatible title when Red Dead Redemption was a thing when this program was introduced. I actually have bought Gun digitally on 360, but cannot play it as it is not backwards compatible. I really hope that one gets another chance. It was even an early 360 title too, brought over from GameCube, Xbox, and Ps2.
Absolutely not and what a waste of my $70 it was. The devs themselves were saying it was going to be their Skyrim in the early days of this game and the early trailers showcased a dark themed fantasy world. I never got far in it due to the annoying bright colored world and how empty it felt. Characters standing still in cities, you couldn't harm other townspeople, you could steal right in plain view of others without consequences and the voice acting was god awful. A lot of people saying a whole lot of nothing. I was in the crowd that loved The Outer Worlds and even 100%ed+ dlc both Xbox versions. Avowed was made by a separate team at Obsidian and I will now avoid anything else that the team makes.
