@Lup As to the not enjoying FromSoftware, each to their own! I think Lies of P is as good as most of their stuff, and I love Mortal Shell and how short and doable it is.it can be very, very off-putting starting a new FS game.
@Lup You know, I'd say not, so I've removed from the intro, but it does share more in common than you might expect, with the locking on in combat and a bunch of other stuff. But yeah, still an Armoured Core game, rather than needing be mentioned here. 😅
@Fiendish-Beaver Something can also be great AND throwaway though, right? I think they're right over at PS that it's throwaway, but in the best way. It's mad, OTT, hammy trash. Fantastic stuff. Utterly throwaway.
@somnambulance Yeah I reckon 30ish would be very.quick, but doable. I'd rather relax into it all though and clear.each area as I go. Which I will be doing with a fresh character!
@Banjo- Share your thoughts and opinions. Don't share your baseless, idiotic accusations that writers here are fixing reviews for clicks. Is this so hard for you to fathom?
This isn't an opinion. It's an accusation against somebody in their place of work. I have to come out and explain it to you? And you want me to respect you? Are you ok?
@Banjo- Are you suggesting that the score is low on purpose for clicks? Because you suggested this before and it's incredibly embarrassing for you. To be this silly. Come back when you understand what an opinion is. Or grow up.
@PurvisP I'm on Elite 2 and have had the drift, so it's random! I didn't even mention drift or the fine aiming issues it's got, because they will get fixed no doubt, and are the least of the game's issues, unfortunately.
@themightyant I find the hate for the graphics very odd. Very obviously a choice designed to fuse cutscenes and gameplay and have everything flow dynamically, imo. It's very effective.
@RadioHedgeFund Yeah, they've totally streamlined all this, as I was saying in review, the downtime is minimised and the narrative stuff is much better paced so that annoying side of things is vastly improved!
@Darude84 I had plenty of time to play and deliver my opinion. Sorry you feel this way, but I think you'll find lots of bad reviews of this DLC coming in over the next few days. It stinks.

@JonBoyJ Interesting! I've never gone any further than this lighter clean, and it's been fine. So far.

@Fanat1c It is! Fixed! My bad. It's very warm.

@Kaloudz AC is RAD!
Re: Hands On: Atomfall Brings Fun Detective Work & Intriguing Narrative To Xbox Game Pass
@Kaloudz Sorry! ONly seeing this now. I'd say they are on a par, roughly, with better lighting.
Re: Hands On: Atomfall Brings Fun Detective Work & Intriguing Narrative To Xbox Game Pass
@Kaloudz I was actually pleasantly surprised by the visuals overall. Sharp and clean.
Re: Hands On: Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii (Xbox) - Imagine Edward Kenway Liked Sequins & Musicals
@Nidorom Well, reviews are looking good all round, so I think you're safe to go for it. I am having a blast. And thanks for reading!
Re: Hands On: Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii (Xbox) - Imagine Edward Kenway Liked Sequins & Musicals
@Nidorom I won't be doing a full review, but it's defo shaping up to be a banger for me, as a fan. (46)
Re: Review: Avowed (Xbox) - Flashy Action & Excellent Exploration Make Up For A Surprisingly Breezy Narrative
@somnambulance Yeah I reckon 30ish would be very.quick, but doable. I'd rather relax into it all though and clear.each area as I go. Which I will be doing with a fresh character!
Re: Review: Avowed (Xbox) - Flashy Action & Excellent Exploration Make Up For A Surprisingly Breezy Narrative
@Old_Man_Harper Defintely possible. But you'd really need to ruin the game and bang through it. I'd say 80-hrs is easily doable here.

@Sol4ris Nah. That doesn't work. Think deeper.

Re: Review: Stalker 2 (Xbox) - GSC Game World's Long-Awaited Sequel Is A Mess
@IGN_Commenter Could be fun to play the OG while you wait!
Re: Review: Stalker 2 (Xbox) - GSC Game World's Long-Awaited Sequel Is A Mess
@themightyant I agree, and I do think they'll come good. I'll defo be keeping it on my Xbox and checking in as it gets better.
Re: Review: Stalker 2 (Xbox) - GSC Game World's Long-Awaited Sequel Is A Mess
@RiverGenie You'll be playing on the day one patch too. Which i only finished the game on. Good to hear it's improving already.

Re: Review: Dragon Age: The Veilguard (Xbox) - Bioware Is Back On Form With An Inquisition-Besting Banger
@themightyant I find the hate for the graphics very odd. Very obviously a choice designed to fuse cutscenes and gameplay and have everything flow dynamically, imo. It's very effective.
