@BlackMayge I agree with everything you said I didn't start playing farcry until 4 but 4,5,6 were a lot of fun I personally think 5 had one of the best game opening ever.
I am a big paradox fan. I own most of their mainline strategy games and their different offerings like I own all the hearts of iron games and EU games as well as all the CK and Vicky games and I just preordered this last night. However, lately especial with EU they have been doing a ***** job getting their releases out without massive game breaking bugs. I do appreciate the sub service for EU my wife can play with me and her own games without having to spend hundreds of dollars on the xpansions.
I really enjoy game pass and think it is a great value would we be saying the same negative things if starfield and redfall launched but were not ready? I can wait for the big games. I think one of the things undervalued is the discount you get for buying games you like. I think the two biggest benefits are being able to play games you may never try unless its on the service and the first party games day one. I am not being a fanboy here but PlayStation doesn't have a single game I would buy the system for specifically now that the show is on Xbox. However, If starfield was coming out on it and not Xbox I would buy a PlayStation that's how much I enjoy Bethesda's games. the fact that they are all coming day one for 15 dollars is huge to me fable as well just my two cents.
I am playing BDO and Rim world. Rimworld has a few crash bugs that I hope they sort out fast otherwise terrific game. So far I have had two colonies fail in spectacular ways. The first everyone died in fire the second one of my colonists went nuts and killed then proceeded to eat everyone.
@InterceptorAlpha My favorite class is the Crusader and the expansion it launched in Diablo 3 I thought was pretty good. Overall Diablo 3 is not to bad for me enjoyed it with my friends. We have been playing a lot of 2 and the class I play is Paladin right now I am working on a FoH build
EA can eat it! Last year was the first year in 24 that I didn't by madden and I wont again this year. I want them to make a good game Dragon age, Mass Effect whatever else. I just have no faith in them to support stuff Andromeda was a good game they just washed their hands of was it anthem they decided they did not want to fix? I just don't trust them.
I play ESO regularly the animation canceling change is fine reducing the damage over time when that's what my class is built on stinks. I'm going to roll with the changes and see how it goes that's all you can really do but ya mmo players hate changes
@BlackMayge I'm a little worried about the world bosses I don't want to be competing with bots. I do have a three man team that we play Diablo 2 and 3 with we are all pretty excited. I wish the crusader was in at start. Right now you can pick up Diablo 2 and three in a bundle it is pretty cheap.
Man there is a lot of negative posts in this thread. I'm honestly excited if the planets are procedurally generated no big deal. I agree there were some lifeless ones in NMS, but they had a purpose with the horrors and it's pretty realistic to have barren planets in space. I'm going to stay hopeful.
It looks great can you imagine visiting all 1000 planets. Really happy with what was shown. I liked that base layout building editor. the way you build stuff in fallout is a hassle.
I enjoyed this I thought Odyssey was the best of the new games for whatever reason I have not been able to get into Valhalla I have tried and tried It is just not as good as Odyssey to me.
It's wishful thinking and I know it's not going to happen but I would really like some details on fable. I'm looking forward to Star field game play kinda. I hope avowed shows up in there some where. Honestly though I wish none of them had been announced yet especially fable. Xbox needs to stop talking about stuff so early. Fable is my favourite Xbox exclusive right in front of Jade empire. I don't remember where so I can't link it but I heard this crazy rumor that Morrowind remake that would be awesome if they said it was almost if true. Anyways those are my hopes and dreams.
@Krzzystuff This!!!!!!!!!!!! Bethesda before the purchase would never have done this. There was always some hint or knowledge they were working on a game, but they did not start building hype until about 4or 5 months out. MIcrosoft doesn't even need to do this I was a a day one customer for all their releases because i like their products. With the incredible value of gamepass and backwards compatibly I don't feel like they need to hype games that are so far away. Starfield it made sense they had what they thought was a solid release date. I am glad they delayed it if it helps with crunch and makes the game the best it can be.
The Ubisoft subscription for pc includes all of the most expensive versions of their games shich is really cool. hopefully when it comes for xbox it will stay that way.
I really enjoyed the remake of 1 but for whatever reason I can't stand two you just feel pushed down narrow corridors with stupid ammo limits that make the game unfun for me. I know that is going to be an unpopular opinion I just do not like 2. I actually enjoyed andromeda more.
I just hope when it comes out it has fable 1and 2's charm there was a lot to like about those games house ownership and jobs were fun. Fable 3 was terrible.
@themightyant the games you mentioned are awesome I didn't really care for fallout 4 not sure why. I would love if they announced a Morrowind remake or remaster wouldn't that be cool?
@Martsmall dishonored is a lot of fun I don't think all their games have to be for everyone. I am stoked for starfield but another Dishonored or rage would be great too.
I really enjoy Bethesda games for someone to say they haven't released any good games is hyperbolic and looking to start an argument. Do they have bugs yes they do are some of the bugs hysterical yes they are but no good games is silly.
@GuyinPA75 you might like it I was looking more for an exploration meet new civs and solve mysterious space things instead it was really combat heavy. the new one that is out seems to be more what I am looking for but we will see. I am with you on the subs I live on the border with Mexico so broadcast tv is hard to get and the cable company is borderline extortion. So, we subscribe to paramount and Disney that's about it. The one thing I enjoy is the fbi show and blue bloods they also have a ton of kids stuff. Disney plus is not to bad if you can stomach their politics they do have a lot of good national geographic and things like that.
I kinda think ea and fifa deserve each other. You would be hard pressed to find a more scummy duo of companies. I wish the EU would come together and put the kabosh on the stupid ultimate team gambling card packs. I live in the US and it's never going to happen here.
@GuyinPA75 I agree with you but they also ruined star trek discovery. When you have to go to the parallel universe in season one maybe you should rethink your entire life.
I think the emphasis people keep putting on first party titles is a mistake. When I chose between the two that consideration didn't even come into play. I chose xbox because at the end of last generation they really seemed to start doing what was best for gamers with things like gamepass and rewards. Now if I had to choose now after some of their big purchases maybe it would I am not sure.
This is the dumbest thing ever I won't bu6y another xbox if they go this route if paying 60-100 dollars for a game is not enough money their doing something wrong and free to play games like startrek and neverwinter make enough cash they don't need anymore.
