@Fiendish-Beaver That's fine for us mere mortals, but for powerful companies like Microsoft, they find a way.

@fatpunkslim Because Asian studios have lower production costs since the developers' salaries are much lower, and also because, in the case of China, the government is behind these studios.

As always, smaller channels that deserve to receive the games won't, and channels that some even hate on Xbox will. This strategic error by the Xbox division needs to change. When Sony releases games like this, it's sending them to its cronies.

Remember that Microsoft always saves the best Game Pass announcements for its June showcase. And it has already shown many good to excellent games for Game Pass.

@ElPadre666 Well, this time the street races are actually illegal and not part of the festival.

@Aniscape For me, this update came too late. I've already played all 11 New Game+ games to get them all maxed out. There's a power you only get after the first New Game+. I think it's the one that summons another version of yourself from another universe to help you in battle.

@eduscxbox It is recognized as Bethesda's least buggy game.

They would have to significantly reduce the game's performance to make it run on the Xbox One, much more so than they reduced it on the 5th Xbox.

Now I'm going to give some tips for those who are starting to play now.

First, focus on the main campaign until you get your first power. After that, go explore and do side missions. Starfield faction missions have a lot of content; just explore and you'll easily find the Bethesda game with the most content.

Second, avoid going to uninhabited planets unless you're going to gather resources or when you have to go there to complete missions.

Third, if you're going to loot ships or commit a lot of crimes, don't take any companions with you.

Fourth, when you finish the initial mission of the game, you'll find a text file that will open the "Mantis" mission for you. Once you're at least level 10 and have decent weapons, do it. You'll get a good ship, a legendary outfit, and good weapons.

Fifth, this tip is to make money since everything is expensive in Starfield. Do the Run the Red Mile. Location: Red Mile Casino, on planet Porrima III, Porrima system. In the race, before pressing the finish button, there's a container nearby. Go inside and steal everything, but be aware that you must sell everything you find on the planet itself, except for the weapons. Illegal gangs are against this.

Sixth, this is for those who want to become very strong in the game with powers. After the mission where you gain the first power, continue the campaign to find the other artifacts and visit the eye where you will receive the location of the temples where you can get the powers. One power that is useful for everyone and that everyone should play until they get it is the personal athemosphere. While it's active, you can run infinitely and carry as much weight as you want. If you want to have these powers at maximum and spending less energy, making them almost infinite, you will have to finish the game 11 times, getting all the powers each time. The campaign is quite shortened; after completing it the first time, just choose an option when you meet Sarah for the first time. You finish the campaign in 3 hours; the annoying part is having to go to all the temples every time.

@ilyn It won't take 10 hours if you focus only on the campaign; I think you can easily do it in 3 to 4 hours, since on average the main campaign and Starfield take 10 to 12 hours to complete, focusing 100% on the campaign.

Some people think you have to complete the main campaign once before starting side quests and factions, which puts you in a kind of "new game+". Others, more radical, believe you have to finish the game 11 times to have all the game's powers maxed out before starting. I did that one.

@whmchrish Starfield 2 will only come out after Fallout 5, which will only start development after TES 6. Starfield 2 will likely skip the next generation since Fallout 5 is expected to be released around 2032 or later.

@ilyn You need to play the game focusing on the main mission until you get the first power in the game. After that, go out and explore the side missions, especially the faction and companion missions, which are very good.

@whmchrish 15 million players and being the third best-selling game on Steam in its launch year isn't a bad number. Starfield is a grounded space-themed game; a lot of people wanted a new Mass Effect.

@GeminiX53 I've played both the Western and Japanese versions, and I'd easily put Starfield among the best. You're probably not a big fan of the space theme.

@Banjo- It makes me sleepy to see the reviews of Starfield, they're so generic. And most of those who criticize it don't even play enough games to know the game's immense content.

This game is amazing. And it's the game with the most content from Bethesda. For those who haven't played it yet, just play it. But be aware that it's a slow-paced game at the beginning. Initial tips: focus on the story at the beginning, at least until you get your first power.

What they usually do in every Forza Horizon presentation, the intention there was to give a sample of the game's huge map and a first look at the city of Tokyo.

@Jenkinss There's a mod for that on both console and PC, and it's never bothered me personally.

@GamingGod Much more open and with much more content. You have to like the space theme. And not mind 2-second loading times to go through some doors.

@GamingGod Yes. The game is very good, but be aware that it has a very slow start.

@BethesdaBoyz It's really great. I still discover awesome side quests in it to this day. I hope the next expansion lets you kill the Neon boss and take his place.

It's a great game, but you have to be patient with its slow start and try not to focus 100% on the campaign. The game has too much content and can leave you lost. If you want to become really overpowered in the game, you'll have to play it 11 times. Don't worry, you can cut a good part of the campaign on subsequent playthroughs. The annoying part is having to go after each temple every time you play through it, and there are more than 20.

@JustinSane Technically speaking, it's quite limited.

It looks like the result turned out very well, but we'll have to wait. Currently I'm playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the first game, which is quite limited; I hope the second one is much better.

@GamingGod Playstation faz mais receita mas lucra menos que Nintendo e Xbox. isso foi discutindo no tribunal durante a aquisição da abk.

And once again, Phil Space was right when he talked about the industry's problems. Just read the letter that shut down Blue Point. The problem is that many people don't want to listen to a guy who is now the CEO of the biggest game publisher on the market. He's been talking about these problems since 2017, and it's going to get worse.

A resource that had its reason for existing in the past but no longer has any reason to exist today. It's just an unnecessary expense within the company. And here comes the doomsday crowd complaining about the end of a resource they probably never used or used very little. Any rational person understands that there's no longer any reason for such a thing to exist.

@Blurd Based on the launch price of the PS5 Pro, you can get an idea of ​​the price of the next generation. Just add another $100.

I doubt it will be released in 2027 with this memory crisis. It was probably delayed to 2028 unless Microsoft has already reserved memory for the new Xbox consoles. Remember that when changing generations, they also have the costs of replacing the cloud blades. So they need memory for both the consoles and the cloud.

We know that Microsoft made a reservation like that, but it was related to AI.

With this memory crisis caused by artificial intelligence, all next-generation plans are on hold. Maybe by the end of 2028, which, incidentally, was the year Phil spoke in court.

Starfield's spaceship combat is a thousand times better. I just wish I could zoom the camera out more from the ship in third-person mode.

@Questionable_Duck Seriously, you're still crying about this? It's thanks to no longer having that exclusivity that Microsoft can release so many games per year. Go see how the competition is doing. One big game a year from their own studios and some partnerships for smaller games.

@Lup You can change where they appear in the console settings. I set mine to appear at the top right corner. Only in some games does the game force the default to appear at the bottom middle.

Most Souls games are repetitive.

"Disappointed to be losing either of these games on Xbox?"

No.

1. WoW Consoles and new DLC.
2. Diablo 1 Remake.
3. Overwatch 2: new heroes and game modes, and resumption of campaign mode development.
4. Hearthstone updates.

@Fiendish-Beaver This year there's BlizzCon, rumors are talking about a Starcraft FPS.

This year there's Iicon in April, from the 27th to the 30th (formerly E3), with the showcase in June. I think it's unlikely there will be another gaming event before those two.

As long as most of the media and those who vote at the TGA are Sony fans and people who hate Microsoft, what is reflected in Xbox won't happen. Just look at the GOTY nominees at the TGA year by year and you'll easily notice this.

Those who don't want to see it can remain in the dark.

Double Fine and his craziness, but it actually seems fun.

"A" without a doubt, Fable and Forza Horizon 6 are amazing.

Forza Horizon 6. And Japan, damn it. The most requested destination for years.

Fable e Forza Horizon 6.I've finished the year and there are still many awesome Xbox games to be released like Gears of War E-Day and the Halo 1 remake.

Wolfenstein 3 yes

There are a lot of people here who seem to hate on games. They criticize any game. I'd like to know what these people are playing.

It's great that they keep adding more games to the cloud, after all, that's the future. Unfortunately, it's not possible to bring them all because that requires agreements with the companies, but Microsoft's ultimate goal is to bring them all by gradually convincing the companies. Microsoft's "play anywhere" proposition is better for the future of gaming. For those still stuck in the 90s and 2000s model, I'm sorry, you're becoming outdated.

@themightyant I think Fable will be released in September, the same month as the first one. Game companies like to do this kind of thing, releasing new games in the same month as the first one.

They will probably receive a demo. Unfortunately, there probably won't be a public demo.

As for the release month, I believe it will be in May, the release month of the first Forza game (Forza Motorsport).

How can anyone take such nonsense seriously? The Xbox division is worth 3 to 4 times more than Nintendo.

Avowed is really very good, I would only change a few things there. Things that are present in The Other World 2.
