Pretty sure Avowed will be good. If it's well written and has good subsystems and some fun battle mechanics it'll do extremely well when there hasn't been much to scratch that Skyrim itch for a long time. The graphics are likely better than the trailer leads on. The color saturation and youtube compression are hiding some micro details. Even if it's kinda ugly it's probably the MSFT IP I'm looking forward to the most (unless there's a new id game for the back half).

I mean Obsidian has literally never released a bad game. So it'd be shocking if Avowed wasn't good/great.

Some games i'll probably play, nothing i'm excited avowed though.

FTFY.

It's that Black Isles Studios heritage. Really wish I still had my Black Isles windbreaker. That and my Dreamcast bomber jacket are two things I regret losing in moves.

What is the next big release from the Microsoft Studios cartel?

 

[Iced Arcade]

whats going to be a big influx is whenever they add the Activision titles to gamepass

Pretty mid list tbh

Nothing stands out as amazing, but there’s a few games worth keeping an eye out for like Avowed, Hellblade, etc.

Really hoping they can get that must play title but still glad these games are on GamePass because I probably wouldn’t touch many of them at full price

Probably have a few surprises like HFR as well I’m sure

How many games per year do you actually consider at full price do you think?

It’s 1 at most for me and this service essentially makes you try games you would never consider paying for or trying at all

I think they will stagger it..

That's what I would do instead of dumping them all at once.

New Stalker looks crazy.

 

[Danknugz]

oh look, a couple games and a bunch of shovelware.

 

[GeoramA]

And zero system sellers. Something MS desperately needs.

Bought plenty this year across Nintendo and Sony platforms.

Over 10 in 2023

Best deal in gaming.

Cue the game pass title song.

[twilo99]

my rough estimate is that I've probably played around $300 worth of games this year

Manor lord looks like a fun building game.
