I was 100% ready to skip this one, but Dark Ties makes me really think about it. I'll probably wait for a sale or if it ever comes to Game Pass, don't wanna support remakes of games available on current gen.
Ah, most of these are FPS. Sadly that's a genre I'll never like, even less the retro ones. Still, always glad less games are skipping Xbox. Something that's more my cup of tea and released today is Earthion from the GOAT π Yuzo Koshiro.
I don't use Steam nor visit Metacritic. It was precisely YouTube which flooded my feed with a lot of "woke/trash game/worst game of the generation".
What I meant to say was that for each fair review there were five that were BS. What I also meant to say is that even those fair critiques are subjective. I enjoyed the game's narrative and I enjoyed its writing and characters. That's why it's subjective.
And when I used the "hate" word I wasn't referring to the fair reviews which I don't think are hateful. Was referring to the vast majority of comments or reviews simply hating the game for its "wokeness" and because it wasn't Dragon Age: Origins, something that Dragon Age 2 and Dragon Age: Inquisition weren't, so beats me why they expected that.
I've been playing The Outer Worlds which I've never finished before. It's great. Big New Vegas vibes. I'll jump to Assassin's Creed Shadows when the DLC comes out though.
Was never a fan of Dragon Quest nor Toriyama's designs to be honest, but I'm glad this one doesn't skip Xbox. I'll probably give the series another chance with the 2D ones.
And I've been unapologetic saying how overrated Far Cry 3 is. π€£
4 and 5 do everything better. Can't go back to 3 or 2.
But about the multiplayer... I mean there is probably a playerbase for that, but I'm not a fan. I much prefer the single-player stuff, be it Far Cry or any other series.
I've been playing it but just a little. Like two or three runs just to try it. Didn't lose any upgrades yet, but it could be something that happens playing more? Game is super fun, but yeah, that has me a little worried too.
Jottunslayer I had it preordered because that's right up my alley. The others... Yeah, not for me. Maybe Hotel Barcelona. There's a few indies I'm interested but have no release date yet, like Neon Inferno, Toxic Crusaders. Halls of Torment I think it actually has one. That one is good too. Great demo. Same with the zombie one.
Still playing Dragon Age The Veilguard which I'm enjoying a lot. I think I'm close to end, I have a little more than 60 hours. After that maybe Shinobi or Outer Worlds. I kinda wanna try another build in Dragon Age though.

Re: These 20+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (September 29 - October 3)
Just Digimon for me. Really liked the demo, but I'll probably wait for a sale.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 27-28)
I've been playing Assassin's Creed Shadows' DLC, and I'm trying Lost Eidolons which is pretty good. Basically Fire Emblem.

Deus Ex is also on the store. Pre-ordered it already.
Re: Roundup: All The Xbox Reveals From September 2025's State Of Play
Cool to have a date for Crimson Desert. Nothing else interesting aside from DW3R.
Re: Dynasty Warriors 3 Gets An Unreal Engine 5 Remaster On Xbox In March 2026
It looks really good! Not my favorite DW but we'll see.

Looks cool. Hopefully it comes sooner or later.

Probably, but never learned how to use them here. π
Re: Seven Xbox-Related Showcases To Look Out For At Tokyo Game Show 2025
Only interested in the RGG one, the indie one, and the Xbox one.

Re: Lots Of Games Are Their 'Lowest Price Ever' On Xbox This Weekend (September 20-21)
@Kaloudz
Completely different games though. One went the action RPG route and the other one it's turn-based...
Crazy that I can say a sentence like that and the turn-based one it's not FF. π
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 20-21)
Finished The Outer Worlds, so I'll be going back to Sengoku Japan in Assassin's Creed Shadows now that the DLC is out. π₯
Re: Earthion Has Finally Arrived On Xbox, And It's One Of The Best-Rated Games Of 2025
GOTY from the GOAT Yuzo Koshiro. ππ»π₯

Re: If The Assassin's Creed Black Flag Remake Is Real, It Could Be Very Different From The Original
Zero interest in this. Will probably be the second AC I'll never buy.
Re: Two Big Free Demos Are Now Live On The Xbox Store
Not the place to say it, but I donwloaded the Digimon one, and it's really good!
Re: Four Games Are Leaving Xbox Game Pass In Late September 2025
Welp, gonna have to replay 3 sooner than expected.

@Will46
That's subjective, but very well.
Was hated most of the time for stupid reasons, and sometimes was fairly criticized.*
There.
Re: These 40+ Games Are Coming To Xbox Next Week (September 15-19)
There's quite a few I'm interested in, but in my region they take a lot of time to appear on the store. You sometimes can't even preorder.
Re: Six Games Are Confirmed For Xbox Game Pass In October 2025 So Far
I playing the first The Outer Worlds to prepare for the second one.
Maybe I'll do the same with Ninja Gaiden, but only with 3.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 13-14)
I've been playing The Outer Worlds which I've never finished before. It's great. Big New Vegas vibes.

Re: Dragon Quest 7 Is Getting 'Reimagined' For Xbox In February 2026

I'll probably give the series another chance with the 2D ones.

Re: 15 Xbox Indie Games That Should Be On Your Radar In September 2025
@Nightcrawler71
I've been playing it but just a little. Like two or three runs just to try it. Didn't lose any upgrades yet, but it could be something that happens playing more?
Game is super fun, but yeah, that has me a little worried too.
Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (September 11-14)
I'll try Rogue Waters since it's been in my wishlist.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Dragon Age: The Veilguard On Xbox Game Pass?
I've completed it 100% and it's great fun. Another game hated just for the sake of being hated.
I'd say it's a solid 8 for me, maybe even a 9.
Re: Two Big October Releases Are Available To Play On Xbox This Week
Will definitely try the Digimon demo. There's been a crazy amount of crazy good demos lately!
Re: 15 Xbox Indie Games That Should Be On Your Radar In September 2025

Really good if you're into indie games.
Re: 'Yet Another Zombie Survivors' Is Apparently Amazing, And It's Coming To Xbox This Week
@Nightcrawler71
That one looks really good and it had escaped my VS-like radar.
I'll add it to the wishlist!
Re: 'Yet Another Zombie Survivors' Is Apparently Amazing, And It's Coming To Xbox This Week
@Kaloudz
It's basically Vampire Survivors but with zombies. In case you liked that one.
Definitely not a survival game which is what I thought it was. π€£
Re: 'Yet Another Zombie Survivors' Is Apparently Amazing, And It's Coming To Xbox This Week
Honestly I ignored it because of the name, but if there's a demo, I'll try it.
Re: Mario Kart World Has A Ridiculous New Rip-Off On The Xbox Store
I mean, F Nintendo. Whatever I think of the game, I think even less or Mr. "I'll Call my Lawyers" Nintendo.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 6-7)
Still playing Dragon Age The Veilguard which I'm enjoying a lot. I think I'm close to end, I have a little more than 60 hours.
After that maybe Shinobi or Outer Worlds.
I kinda wanna try another build in Dragon Age though.
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Borderlands 4 Next Week?
Honestly I thought this one was already out. But no, not for me.
Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (September 4-7)

Thanks! Gonna go give it a read and probably try it later too!
Re: Two Games Are Available Today With Xbox Game Pass (September 4)
I'm very busy with Veilguard. It ended up being really cool. Neither game is for me, anyways.
Re: Free Play Days: Try These Xbox Games For Free (September 4-7)
Does TopSpin has some kind of story mode? Like WWE's MyRise or something like that?
