Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Shouldn't the source be close to whoever makes the game?
exputer has a decent track record recently, they broke the Hellblade 2 release date and a couple of other games coming to game pass last few months.

It just looks wrong to me "According to sources close to eXputer" - Shouldn't it be "According to sources close to <devs/publisher>"?

Jedi Survivor is on gamepass now. Damn, should have traded it into GameStop for $35+ this past week.

Bought the game and have no regrets in the end after 2 playthroughs. Looking forward to paid expansions.

The publisher of the game has confirmed game pass deals for Lords of the Fallen and Sniper Contracts 2.
The dates will probably be announced in the next batch.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Didn't know Jedi Survivor was on gp lol.
Glad to be getting LOTF too. Game seems a bit jank but also very pretty visual-design wise. Will try for sure.

This the same Lords of the Fallen that came in PS+ in 2016?
I still haven't tried it out.

ah, i thought there was some remake or remaster. But then I thought maybe i was confusing it with another game.

Even though early May sucked, late May sounds out of control great.
Hellblade 2
Lords of the Fallen

Crazy lineup. And we still get the cat game tomorrow.

So yeah, definitely if a game comes out broken, I'll have better luck waiting for it on Game Pass than waiting for it to get fixed lol.

I don't think it's a bad UI at all, the only issues I had is that I couldn't download games on Win 10, there was no way to fix it but I installed Win 11 and had no issues ever since. It's just a pretty simple interface btw, nothing comparable to Steam or so, you just download and play games from there (which I'm ok with). You can talk to Xbox friends and have Xbox achievements too but I don't care about those features personaly.
It's a whole reboot, nothing to do with prev game.
I think Jedi Survivor coming late April is a great early May game, currently playing it right now.

The game has pretty much been fixed with a very solid performance mode since they put out the big overhaul 1.5 patch a few weeks ago, so yeah definitely the best time to play it now lol.
For my benefit, the 1.5 update also adds customizable difficulty options so it's extra incentive that I'll check this out when it hits GP.
DF's coverage of the 1.5 patched version timestamped.

Do those optimizations benefit PC too? I play on PC and that was a game I had an eye on.

I would say it's a safe bet. 1.5 was a big optimization patch for all platforms, not just the consoles.

Is this a difficult game like a souls game or easier?
adamsapple

Yeah, it's a souls-like in nature, I never played it at launch so no idea how the default difficulty curve was but they've added modifiers to 1.5 so folks can tailor it to their own preference.
Well jedi survivor is still horrible technically

That's great because I've gone from the hard difficulty in games to normal.

But I don't have to pay extra lol.
Game looks incredible, like almost best looking current gen game so far for me on HDR (haven't played AW2 yet), so I'm enjoying it greatly, but it's so badly optimized I take it as a joke like "Why the F is the GPU usage staying on 80% lmao". If I'm gonna play an unoptimized mess I'd rather do it on Game Pass, it's a shame TLOU wouldn't go to it since it's Sony's so I had to buy it on a sale.

Interesting. I held off on this because of the woeful state it was in, but might grab it on PC, if it's been fixed.
It will be a waste, game is an utter garbage

I started playing this halfway through again on Steam and was completely lost so I restarted on PC Game Pass for some achievements, and I was fine with restarting since it has had many updates. I forgot how good this was. Some things I wish more souls-likes would copy are the armor dye feature and the parry by simply blocking at the last second. The dye system can make almost any combination of armor look good instead of ridiculous. Also, the ability to use a bow, throwing weapons, or catalysts without being vulnerable when an enemy closes or catches you by surprise from behind.
Btw, it seems the patching has really helped performance. It is running super smooth, and I remember having some stutters here and there on PC last time I played it.
