I understand why people are getting annoyed at the "this is why I'm not buying it comments" but I feel like the reason behind them is that people are surprised that they feel that way. I'm a pretty big gta fan but I feel like I could end up with either version or no version at all in equal proportion. It's weird to me that my hype levels are dropping so rapidly and I can't fully articulate why.

I love Elite Dangerous, it's still worth playing this version but I would treat it similarly to the ffxiv trial.

I understand why people would feel betrayed by the existence of this version, but Frontier is in a very different place now than when consoles were dropped. Leadership has been swapped out several times and the game is now advancing under completely different design philosophies. The game was basically stagnant and abandoned on pc too for most of this time, only in the last year has it undergone a resurgence and is actually getting new content.

I think a return to consoles is absolutely in the cards if the game can maintain its trajectory. Much of the ground content and social aspects are currently being reworked, core system changes like this often preclude console ports.

Not saying they shouldn't do it, but they really needed this product out by now. The steam deck created and owns this market, and steam os being open to other platforms is going to reduce the need for a Windows based handheld system. Steam os has had years of testing and polishing and I have a hard time believing microsoft can deliver a better handheld experience out of the gate.

The realistic art style is something I thought wouldn't work for the series but it does somehow. It looks great.

I really adore this game. I think a lot of the reaction is from people expecting it to allow versatility in gameplay approach, but it really is primarily a stealth game at its core.

Looks about as mid as the game

He sounds great, with the visuals it's really about the best you can get with recasting.

What frustrated me about season one is the props, sets, etc were all great, the acting was fine, but the story just spun it's wheels then entire time and went nowhere. They have all the ingredients to make a halo show, they just can't seem to do it.

I'll watch season 2 but I'm not expecting much.

Not surprising, it's disappointing but I think coop becomes less important when a game reaches 100 hours or more. I can't imagine being able to get someone to play through the entire game in couch coop.

It's not perfect but it's an improvement. I wish they would take the switch/steam deck approach and let us just keep scrolling to the right tho. The advertisements are pretty insulting with how much money most of us are paying, it cheapens the whole feel. Even amazon let's you pay $15 to remove the ads from a fire tablet ui, which is still garbage btw.

I like it when attractive Asian people swordfight in loose fighting clothing so maybe I'll check this out.

This is really funny to me for some reason

Still debating about trying it. The graphics and enemies look fancy and neat, but the horniness is really off putting and I hear the localization is way off in tone. Will probably play in Russian if I do end up trying it.

Maybe they should have made it a Saints Row game instead of whatever the hell it ended up as. Seems so weird to reinvent a niche series with a cult following.

Look, it's got katanas and colored hair! What more do you want? /s

It's okay. I'm not sure if I'm fond of the physics or drifting. I already have trouble switching between the drifting mechanics of mario kart and sonic racing, and my brain has a difficult time seperating three completely different styles of arcade drift.

Please please please, been waiting my whole life for a Spyro game that matches up to the original trilogy.

I was rooting for the show all season but it didn't really go anywhere, felt like it was spinning its tires the whole time. I am hopeful the next season will be improved, they have everything there, the props and effects are perfect and the casting is great.

It feels like they could have edited the whole season down into 2 or 3 good episodes, there is just so much filler with no substance.

Lol there's something eery about there being no music or fanfare

@Sakisa
Came to the comments to say this. It's one of my least favorite sonic games, but it looks and plays so beautifully now. It has aged remarkably well.

Something I haven't heard anyone talking about is how bad the directional audio is in this game. Sounds are louder when you look at them but other than that it doesnt seem to change based on orientation. If someone is talking to you and you don't see them, it's difficult to know which direction the voice came from.

I'm enjoying the gameplay more than I expected, and I like about 30% of the humor which is also more than I expected. I think the humor and writing would have benefitted from being more spread out. The constant stream of jokes lessens the impact of all of them. I roll my eyes more often than laugh.

@REAVERZINE
No Chao gameplay but there are references.

Finally, I've been holding off on playing more until this was resolved. Night and day difference.

It's good for what it is, it's closer to a point and click puzzle adventure than a shooter.

I have access to both versions so it doesn't really matter to me, but I'm still thinking the Xbox version will be superior if it has modernized controls with a right analog stick. The Switch version will be tied to the N64 controls in the emulator.

@InterceptorAlpha
Okay. I was aware. I don't know why I can't be excited for it happening after 20± years when characters are more than then a block of pixels. And I stand by my original statement, it's about time, I'm sick of having to play male protags, let me enjoy things.

@InterceptorAlpha
Yes I know, and none since then.

Kinda disappointing they look Jurassic Park style and not more scientifically accurate.

It's about time.

Yeah, I'll play this

Why make it Bluetooth when the phone physically connects to it? Input delay and lag for no reason.

Guess that means it's finally time to split.

@Hexamex-Tex so you like when you play as a male protaganist but don't understand when people like to play as a female protagonist?
