How much do you have to pay to play early on Game Pass?
Was worth it with Avowed.

 

[LectureMaster]

You said the same thing about Avowed and AC Shadows, and yet you were one of the first people on GAF playing them papito

Definitely a better deal than the Avowed one. I doubt I'll get it since I'm not even close to done with Avowed. SoM art book is probably pretty sick.

I’m pretty sure I’m toward the end of Avowed. 47 hours in lmao.

Sold.

 

[drotahorror]

Doesn't look bad honestly. I usually enjoy most action-adventure games like this. Decent combat/good scenery is all is needed.

 

[R3TRO]

Nice day one

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Nice day one

And only one. It’s like 5 hours long.

 

[Kataploom]

So right after Nintendo Switch 2 event? Lol

 

[balls of snow]

Shorter games to supplement my 100 hour mammoths. Yes please.

 

[Salz01]

I do want it to be good, but the combat arenas has me turned off.

[Team Andromeda]

Shame that horrible bith is still in post, but I'm very much looking forward to this.

The year is amazing because of the amount (of what could be good) games coming out early

 

[Negotiator101]

Can Microsoft game studios go 3 for 3 with great games back to back?

 

[vaibhavpisal]

There is a lot more than 3 great games.

 

[MMaRsu]

Early access needs to go

I think he means Indy, Avowed, this.
Stalker don’t count.

3 for 3 for 1p developed games, but also great stuff for people subbed to game pass. This then Clair Obscure releasing the same month and Doom another 2~ weeks after.

 

[Esppiral]

Another game from MS not being dubbed to other languages, they can go f themselves.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

 

[Punished Miku]

Safe to say there has never been a game OST like this. Cant wait.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

It's awful. I'm excited about the game, but the songs are the absolute pits.

Cod blops 6 makes it 4 for 4 since november last year. Yeah that campaign was fire.

 

[Baemono]

Worst part of the concert

I heard em all.

Sounding quite good on my hp system.

Lots of vocals especially in boss themes.

English is my third language and I never ever even thought of complaining about that. Set my mind long time that if I want to consume western media, I need to learn the language. Piece of cake, actually.

 

[San Dan Glokta]

Yikes of Midnight

 

[Punished Miku]

It's awful. I'm excited about the game, but the songs are the absolute pits.

Its definitely weird but I'm going to try and keep an open mind until I see it in context of the game. I'm not into country, ragtime or folk typically but I do like some of these tracks. Just the fact that I can actually say I have never heard a game OST like this ever is already a giant plus in my book after 35+ years of gaming. Nice to see something new and creative. Southern Gothic is a cool setting so this could fit right in if done well. Guess we'll see.

Congratulations.

English is my fourth language....

Review embargo is a little north of two days from the point of this post.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I'd guess this will be on Playstation by years end.

 

[Kvally]

Buying day 1! Let's fucking go!

 

[SlyDoughnut]

Looking forward to this. Also maybe I'm a jaded old man but I'm getting real tired, and I do feel this happens way more in Xbox game threads, of wading through all the shit from people who will never play the game, feeling the need to tell anyone who might, that they shouldn't.

If you don't care. Cool. Stay away.

My advice is to avoid the review thread. It usually serves as a bulk containment thread.

Just stick to the OT.

 

[StueyDuck]

This fucking place is full of insufferable idiots.

Be sure to notifiy the internet police that someone online had a different opinion to you.

I'll get ahold of the council of feelings and I'm sure we can fix this problem together.

 

[anyasok]

Woke ugly garbage. No thanks

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

That drummer should've tuned his fucking snare, damn.

 

[corgiix3]

I cant imagine a world where this game dosnt bomb hard

 

[KiteGr]

It comes at the wrong time.
People are sick of Woke stuff, nerds hate them with a passion, and they are generally imploding right now.
It's also apparently involved with the forbidden "baby" consultants.

Watching these projects is really sad. Like someone finances the construction of a giant ship made out of sugar. People poured their heart, soul and a rainforest worth of sugar trees to make it.
Yet we all know it's not going to float for long... and it just started to rain...

 

[kevboard]

"we have arbitrarily decided that this is version 1.0"

 

[Reckheim]

Woke ugly garbage. No thanks

what makes it woke?

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Looks interesting, I'll give it a shot.

 

[Thabass]

Honestly, this game looks pretty good. Very interested in trying it and I'm glad it's on Gamepass.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Not sure I’d call the game itself woke, but the main character was race swapped and the community manager is an anti-white racist.

An African American young woman in the American Deep South, filled with historical and cultural influences from African Americans, in particular Geechie Gullah culture, might've been the best change they made in race-swapping the main character.

While what you say is 100% true for the individual; with gaming becoming a global phenomenon if M$ don't spend the small amount of money for translation Vs. The potential colossal amounts of sales they lose its really a case of them gimping themselves with poor decisions and allocation of resources.

Of course this game is going to probably flop regardless because its not globally appealing but the principle stands in general lol

I wasn't judging it either way. Sounded like the devs in Canada were afraid of trying to write a black woman in the deep south. Until they got consultants.

They say 12-ish for just the main story
