Any recommendations? With how big mobile gaming is, there should be an abundance of good games, but every just feels like the same monetization formula with different skins.
Mobile gaming is such a disappointment to me. There's so much untapped potential with touch screens and gaming. Everything just turned into these formulaic, grind-based games.
To me Infinite isn't the worst in the series. I preferred the campaign to Halo 4 and 5 and the multiplayer was good, just not enough content to sustain it.
Nice. Pretty excited by this game. I finished Chained Echoes when it came out and thought it was really well done. Hoping this will be a great RPG as well.
Ya, I agree that what they have is promising. I really do hope they can finish the game as I'm really excited by the ideas they have.
People like to call the game a scam, but they've actually delivered something tangible. I personally don't think I'd enjoy the game in it's current state (and it kind of shocks me the amount of money people have put into Star Citizen), but the fundamentals seem to be there for a real game. They just have to "finish the owl," so to speak.
I think people kind of just like laughing at how ridiculous Star Citizen is, and kind of rightly so. Over half a billion dollars and a decade in development just for what they've got is pretty wild.
I have liked a lot of indies lately as well, but the have been a ton of good AAA games recently, for me at least. Elden Ring, TotK, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, Hogwarts Legacy, God of War Ragnarok, to name a few.
All Microsoft games will be on Gamepass, so you wouldn't have to worry about Flight Sim specifically. I did the Gold to Gamepass conversion for 3 years and have found it very worth it, but it's hard to say at retail cost if I'd still sub.
Didn't see anyone else mention it, so I'll say MMOs. Pretty much all of them. WoW, FFXIV, Guild Wars 2, Star Wars one (can't remember the name). I really like the idea of MMOs, having a huge shared world that feels alive, tons of lore, epic quests, but I just find the gameplay loop so boring. They just feel like endless busywork to me.
These were my thoughts as well. Ever since I've had a good internet connection, online only games haven't really bothered me, but that's a privilege many don't have.
When I had crap internet it, I'd have to download a patch overnight and it was awful getting a surprise patch, meaning I couldn't play til the next day.
I don't see any reason for single player games not to have an offline mode. Especially for people who don't have good access to internet.
I'm assuming they're going to learn a lot from Starfield and that ES6 will be pretty different from Skyrim. Going back and playing Skyrim now already feels like it's dates, so they've got to change some stuff.
I did the exact same thing. Started Storm and went Bear. I just liked smashing things.
Ya, Gamepass has been somewhat weak recently IMO. They're probably getting ready for an influx of sub for Starfield. Make a few extra bucks.
Harvest Moon was my jam back in the day. Stardew is my farming sim fix now, but I might give SoS a try.

Ones that come to mind are Crosscode and Chained Echoes. I really enjoyed both of them.
Am I crazy or is there no mention of Neon White in that article?
Edit: So I googled it and it does seem to be coming to Gamepass, just not mentioned in this particular article.

PlayStation Square would be Xbox's X, no? Could be that. Or it's the only common button between all consoles.

Scariest game I've ever played.

I really tried to like Ni No Kuni, especially because of the Ghibli artwork, but I just bounced off it.
