The outer worlds was one of my favourite games in 2020 really looking forward to this one, I found the representation of the large corporations a and their complete lack of regard for their employees a rather amusing commentary on the world we currently live in
Not paid for early access as working this weekend but would have if I was not
The price increase is unjustified in that no way is 40 -50% price increase OK when you are crowing about how much money you just made from that service
However I did consider dumping ultimate as tbh it pissed me off a lot then I took off the console tax and suddenly it is the same price as PC Xbox the 6.99 to get online is obscene but if we ignore that for now. It is then essentially £192 for a year so play 3 full price games for me who played a lot more this year easily covers the cost
That does not excuse a 40+% increase as Ok as it is not I am in a fortunate position where it does not affect me I can afford to pay it if i want to with no downsides for a lot of people that is not the case. I have friends who will not take it off their kids although they really cannot afford any increased outgoings each month
Given they cannot keep their word about anything why should we trust them? If it including Call of Duty in GamePass ***** things up so much just come out and say we cannot afford to replace it
So if we take the 6.99 for core off for those that play on console it should now dawn on you the idiot with the spreadsheet (the accountant) thinks this is an amazing deal as that makes the xbox cost the same as PC in terms of the uplift.
At this point we have all concluded the same thing that is the xbox management team are idiots and that is being polite
This is a good game. Is it the best dragon age game? No but its far better than the you tube crowd would have you believe. As others have said its a solid game has some issues but it enjoyable
I think at this point if you have been on XBox for along period of time the question for next gen is PC or Xbox Console given the large library of games I could still play on PC due to XBox Anywhere ,which deserves more love than its gets, switching to PS would be silly given most PS games are coming to PC now. So unless you have a small library of games I am not sure MS loses as the logical choice if you do not buy the next Xbox console is PC
TBH i thought the original was a load of pretentious bollocks that was just being strange for the sake of it. If this had not been made by Kojima i am of the opinion most people would have said it was not very good if they were being polite.
Certainly from my view point it was not a good game at all and just because it was made by someone who is revered in terms of video games does not mean you should get a free pass for producing something like this
Just in case it is not obvious absolutely not going to "play" death stranding 2
@HeavyHoggJP yes its definitely worth playing now especially with the phantom liberty dlc but even without the performance is much better and its in a good place
I played for about 6 hours and was left thinking is this the actual game and then went read some reviews and discovered walking about delivering packages was indeed the game. I personally found it incredibly boring.
The graphics are great, the soundtrack as much as I heard it was great but for me the gameplay was just tedious
The cutscenes to me exhibit that someone thinks they are being very clever whilst they are not I think if this game did not have Kojima's name associated with it it would be lucky to get a 7/10
I was very hopeful of a great game but it was just meh what was all the hype about as for me this was just utter trash.
I would love someone to point out to me what I am missing as I loved his mgs stuff but I cannot currently fathom how it got the review scores it did
