A niche genre, a new IP, in an overcrowded game release with some major release. I am a game pass subscriber and I don't have the time to try it. It doesn't take the Nobel in economy to predict that this game won't do that much profit.
If you want to play Assassin's creed mirage but don't want to own it and pay the full price you can subscribe to Ubisoft+ for one month just don't forget to unsubscribe before it charge you again next month, you will also have access to the Crew motorfest. Here in Canada it's 22,99$ for a month , not Much to have the chance to play two good games for one month.
Tales of Arise is unplayable on series x it keeps freezing during cutscene , so Much that I just stop playing and the combat is just a flashy buttons mashing mess. I don't understand the reviews on this game. Overated.
Abandonned this game after a few hours of play due to everything they have fixed with this patch,Will likely go back to it when I am done with Starfield.
Started everspace 2 and it's looking realy great, also playing Tales of Arise but I don't think I Will continue, the game crashes often, the story is good but the combat is a real flashy mess, the mobs on normal difficulty setting are too easy to beat but the boss are too strong and when you put the difficulty at story the game is just a movie you watch mashing buttons on a controller.
Gris is a good 2d platformer and firewatch one of the best walking simulator but already played both games on switch, asymetric horror games are not my kind of games then maybe I Will try sea of stars but not sur.
The problem of these developpers is in the beginning of developpement, they don't care about the series s and they try to fit the game on a less powerfull machine instead of developping the game with the S in mind and then upgrade the game for the x more powerfull GPU. Some devs understand that and they don't cry on social media about the existence of the series s.
What a waste of time and efforts, work on current gen to make them work well and let the last gen die, it's time to move on for those who are still playing on xone.
Stupid move for gamepass ultimate subscriber who lose free Games, only good for Microsoft it Will push peolple who are not gamepass subscribers toward the program with this list of games.
I am a gamepass ultimate subscriber and for me it's a loss of value this news, no more free Games, for the same Price . Maybe the Games were not so good but still I played and enjoyed some of them. Thanks to all who made complaints now we got to pay more for less.
They should have put in the deal that Sony in Exchange stop paying third party developpers to prevent them from bringing their games to xbox consoles, like they do with square Enix.
Finaly finished Zelda TOTK this week, started planet of Lana, then probably bramble the mountain king after and amnesia the bunker or layers of fear, too many Games to play.
It's okay to have first party exclusives, what is not is to prevent third party Games to go on other Platform like sony did with FF7 remake. We as consumer chose a Platform for their IP not for the third party publishers which habitualy support all Platform and to prevent Games to come to all consoles is not good for the gaming community.
@Cashews No because it's s a AAA Nintendo game and one of the most accessible and fun couch coop game. It's not on top of the chart because it's a physical game! It would be a best seller even if it was only digital that's what I am saying .
@Cashews they don't sell more games because they offer physical , they sell more games because they are AAA and AA games with collectors éditions in mind. If they were digital only these games would sell the same minus the strange people who buy 2 copy one for the collection and the other one to play.
I still pay for gamepass but I didn't t play much since Zelda TOTK came out last month but still it 's an incredible value for 23$ in Canada. A stand alone AAA game cost almost 100$ taxes included here so around 3 months of gamepass. The equivalent of 4 AAA total a year for all these Games plus with the rewards program I can Buy other Games with gift cards.
The series s is a perfect console to have when you already own a ps5 or a switch like me, but if I would only own one of the three I would chose the Nintendo switch for their excelence in making good Games and their iconic IP, which lacks in Microsoft catalog.
Zelda TOTK of course,and I bought layers of fear just to see what this game looks on the series s and it's looking realy great so far, for a system that supposedly is holding back this generation it can do magic in the right hands.
In a live DF video after all the showcase they Said that they expect a lot of the upcoming open world Games shown are going to be 30fps, due to the level of detail, huge drawing distances and global illumination, it's not only a matter of resolution that cost fps.
A plague tale requiem at 30 fps was realy good, Zelda TOTK is good, cyberpunk 2077 was unplayable for me at 30 fps , Starfield I hope Will be ok at 30fps if the shooting have autoaim, I also prefer playing Forza horizon at 60fps it depends of the game but I am open minded for a game of this scale and ambitions.
The creative choice is to have 4k/30fps on X and 2k/30fps on S, if the game plays well I don't care for fps or résolution, anyway it's on gamepass, so I won't have to spend more money to try it.
