@somnambulance beating games is overrated. I’ve started just playing games til I quit, whether I finish or quit deliberately or accidentally quit and don’t come back.

That said, I have a habit of getting to the end of games and then stopping. That is a little frustrating…

I loved Octopath 2, but yes… it took me like three months. That’s not reasonable.

Tough decision whether to buy it or wait and see if it goes game pass. I would have bought Octo 2 at release if it had been on Xbox. But when it finally did get there it was on game pass.

@themightyant I 100% agree. But I did play this day 1, and it was fine and ready. Not that it isn’t a bummer that it now has a bunch more stuff.

I don’t know why I ever bother playing new games. I guess because the opposite is worse, when they leave game pass and I haven’t played them yet (not that this one would)

I’d give it a try. Seems like much of it would be hard without a mic tho.

Hope it works better than autocorrect…

Carrion comes and goes like the wind. It feels like wild frost just got here tho. 😭

I have time to rush through still wakes the deep tho. Guess lost records has to wait!

Skyrim special anniversary edition special 2026 goty Todd Howard series remastered HD featuring K-pop demon hunters: maxed version plus

Oof it’s sad one has to pay so much to get a non OEM wireless that actually works on the series XS. Guess I’ll keep rocking my wired 8bitdo

About time. Should be on game pass when it takes this long

I enjoyed the Banishers trial but really struggled to get into the combat. Maybe I should give it another go (or try easy mode), but that part just felt tacked on and not fun.

I’ll probably play lost records right away.

No console version for moonlighter 2 tho?

Yet they don’t update rdr2?

Should have renewed it for another year since it spent the first year buggy asf :/

I canceled, but I’ll try to get some discount ultimate cards somewhere…

I don’t care about their big scale releases, whatever that is, but I’m definitely excited for dq7, Elliott, and Octopath 0.

Using AI to debug games is going to lay off the largest part of any team, tho, beta testers.

Is death stranding 2 out? 🤔

I’m gonna play the first one first.

It took until now for stalker 2 to even work properly and now it’s leaving. Assuming it even works yet. “Day one” games aren’t always the best.

Partly marketing and propaganda and silliness to get your hopes up for “promises”. Stop reading previews and just judge a game when it’s out, with no hype.

I hope he can pull it off. I’ve loved many of his games over the years, mostly in the 80s and 90s

I love indies and was expecting a lot more from this. Personally didn’t see anything very interesting for me.

Hmm. I love indie games more than most people, but I gotta say, nothing in here gets me very excited.

@ILuvGames agreed. Guess I better start saving my Best Buy credit or Microsoft rewards or something

This is really the only logical path forward for Xbox. Meanwhile PlayStation will do the same thing they did all over again, and Nintendo already has their hardware in place. It’ll be three very different ecosystems (with many of the same games, until switch 2 again inevitably lags behind)

I was miffed when pacific drive didn’t launch on Xbox too. Worth it for waiting for game pass tho.

Fantasy kingdom looks fun too. Wish jt was also on console

Well that sounds pretty good. Might as well wait for all the dlc and season pass to be cheap tho

Weird awards show. I’m looking forward to both tho.

Crap. I wanted to replay monkey island (it’s great!).

I never got around to metal slug. I meant to immediately, but It was buggy asf at launch. I presume it’s working now.

The battletech games are very interesting additions.

That actually does sound pretty great

@TheGameThrifter there are a lot more play anywhere games than just these

Why do rpgs always have to become non-rpgs? RPG elements in every action game now and rpg elements removed from every rpg.

@Friendly it wasn’t on Xbox til now. So it’s a day one release… even tho it’s been out for a year or so elsewhere. Happy to play it either way and glad I didn’t buy it on anything else.

Great to see 1000x. I’ve been wanting to play it.

@Decimateh yeah no kidding!

I hope keeper is good. The rest seem kinda Idno.

Jeez. Zero notice and lasts two days or less? Been waiting all month just to blink and miss it.

CoD wrecked game pass

The amount of catastrophising on here is hilarious.

The discounts on dlc were bad anyway. Maybe this will allow publishers to offer better discounts since game pass isn’t offering a poor blanket discount.

@SodaPop6548 there’s nothing to disagree with. He’s talking about historical metrics. We’ll see if the same happens here. Historically, it does, is all he’s saying.

I did cancel my auto renew, for one, but I plan to seek out some discount codes.

It would have gone up with or without adding the Ubisoft stuff. They’re just trying to cushion the blow by “adding value”.

Is stalker 2 even done yet? just in time to leave.

I’d be sad to lose that and metal slug tactics. I haven’t played either and would like to. Both were buggy asf at launch.

I already played it when it came out. But it’s 3 years old at this point. If I’d waited, I’m sure I’d be excited… but it sells for like $15 now doesn’t it?

I’m still not playing jewel

Nice if you like Ubisoft. Otherwise…

Whenever I hear AAA, I think tepid garbage that tries to appeal to everyone in its watered-down gameplay design and graphically overpriced style, while pleasing no one.

I want games with lower budgets, worse graphics, and more creativity that isn't watered down to appeal to "everyone". AAA graphics and the idea that a game needs to sell 10 million copies to break even are killing the industry.

The Sierra games are great. I just wish the console had keyboard and mouse support. It doesn't run on my PC (black screen).

Kind of sad to delay a mostly-digital release just for physical stuff, but I guess they have no choice.

Either way, I'll be happy to see it whenever it comes out.

Agreed on Lost Odyssey. I wonder why he didn't mention Shadowrun with the other FASA stuff. I guess the recent Shadowrun stuff wasn't first-party, but Microsoft still owns console rights.

Shocked to be somewhat interested in all of these, but I wish they were on console too. My PC is not what it used to be.
