Finished The Outer Worlds, so I'll be going back to Sengoku Japan in Assassin's Creed Shadows now that the DLC is out. 🔥

GOTY from the GOAT Yuzo Koshiro. 🙏🏻🔥

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 🐐 Yuzo Koshiro.

Zero interest in this. Will probably be the second AC I'll never buy.

Not the place to say it, but I donwloaded the Digimon one, and it's really good!

Welp, gonna have to replay 3 sooner than expected.

Deep Rock Galactic Survivor, let's goooooo.

And Sworn comes to Game Pass?! Damn, we're eating good.

It's a wonderful machine and you get your money's worth.
Of course the X is more powrful but that's the point.

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.

@Will46

That's subjective, but very well.

Was hated most of the time for stupid reasons, and sometimes was fairly criticized.*

There.

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.

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.

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.

I didn't even know this subseries existed. 😅

Seems that PS exclusivity didn't work too well for Squenix. 🤣

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.

Danganronpa 2 is great. That new content makes me wanna buy it again.

Like a Dragon and Shinobi are the only ones I really like.

And I've been unapologetic saying how overrated Far Cry 3 is. 🤣
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.

Crazy how some quests took 5 years to fix.

@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.

I'll try Rogue Waters since it's been in my wishlist.

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.

Will definitely try the Digimon demo. There's been a crazy amount of crazy good demos lately!

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.

More Koei Tecmo games please.

I already downloaded and I'm trying quite a few of them. There's a lot of stuff!
Really good if you're into indie games.

@Nightcrawler71

That one looks really good and it had escaped my VS-like radar.
I'll add it to the wishlist!

@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. 🤣

Honestly I ignored it because of the name, but if there's a demo, I'll try it.

I mean, F Nintendo. Whatever I think of the game, I think even less or Mr. "I'll Call my Lawyers" Nintendo.

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.

Honestly I thought this one was already out. But no, not for me.

@FraserG

Thanks! Gonna go give it a read and probably try it later too!

I'm very busy with Veilguard. It ended up being really cool. Neither game is for me, anyways.

Does TopSpin has some kind of story mode? Like WWE's MyRise or something like that?

I don't think I've ever watched a Bond movie. At least not in full.
Still, if it looks good, I'll be interested. The PS2 games were fun.

@BAMozzy

Probably because:

A) This is an Xbox site. Just like when you go to read the news on Push Square and you don't know if the games release on other consoles or not.

B) The three games will be on Game Pass, which most Xbox users have.

I agree that is a good month for gaming in general though. Although of course that is subjective to personal taste.

It's fun! A little chaotic, but that's part of the charm. Didn't like the music so much but at the same time I found it catchy.
My one complaint would be that the characters felt the same, but maybe that was me not going too deep into the customization mechanics.
Fun, for sure but I myself would wait for a sale.

@Decimateh

Not for me, I didn't really like the first one. But I hope you enjoy it!

Nothing for me but that's fine. I'll be clearing some of my neverending backlog.

Not much for me here, only the VS-like game. But I don't mind. Game Pass has been good.

Dragon Age The Veilguard which I'm enjoying quite a lot. Solid game so far.

It's between The Rogue Prince of Persia and Dragon Age.

More JRPGs, but maybe not the big ones. The smaller ones that usually skip Xbox.

Honestly, I might not even try whatever they make next. This was so overhyped that it was never going to fulfill expectations (at least for me).
Not a bad game at all, and the soundtrack is almost perfection, but everything else I just thought it was alright. Game fell apart after Act 1 for me and had to force myself to finish it. I don't think it makes my top 20 of JRPGs
In any case, I know it was a complete success and I'm in the minority, so kudos to the team.
I think I'll go back to Shadow Hearts. 🤣

Always wanted to play Cold Fear and never did. So that's cool.

I Am Alive was reaaaally cool on paper, and really interesting on practice. I think it could have been great with a few tweaks and QoL stuff.

Ugly as sin made me laugh. 🤣

This game looks amazing. Honestly this was the kind of art style I wanted for Ninja Gaiden Ragebound.

Sucks because I don't care about Silksong but I wanted this one. But it does makes sense I guess.
