I've played it with a few friends and it's a genuinely fun game.
The online runs a hell of a lot better then the Borderlands trilogy on Steam. Borderlands has such a terrible lag problem on Steam that renders it virtually unplayable.
I started playing Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus the other day and it's a really fun Metroidavania that takes a ton of inspiration from Hollow Knight, and I'm okay with that.
If it's like Day One Overwatch back in 2016 I would be interested, but the thing is, I genuinely really like Overwatch's art direction, even to this day.
But anyways, enough reminiscing, I don't really have a ton of interest in this game but may give the Open Beta on PC a try just to try it.
Also the headline is weird since "haters" can give genuine criticism and no game is immune to criticism.
I genuinely love watching competitive Tekken and Street Figther so I'm hyped for Evo. Will definitely watch Strive's matches as well, love my some Guilty Gear.
I do miss Smash at Evo cause competitive Smash is just as entertaining as Tekken and Streets for me.
@Llamageddon Seriously, Steam's Next Fests are utterly fantastic. Being able to demo a whole slew of upcoming games is so good. I've found a lot of games I loved from downloading the demos on a whim.

I wasn't really big on the purchase when it happened and in hindsight it was the right mindset.
Re: Pour One Out for Iconic US Gaming Mag Game Informer

Tiny Tina doesn't have that problem.

Either a possible Kiwami 3, new Judgment or another spinoff. I feel it's too soon for 9.
Re: Preview: Ignore The Haters, Concord Is a Good PS5 Shooter We Can't Wait to Play More Of
If it's like Day One Overwatch back in 2016 I would be interested, but the thing is, I genuinely really like Overwatch's art direction, even to this day.
But anyways, enough reminiscing, I don't really have a ton of interest in this game but may give the Open Beta on PC a try just to try it.

@Burntbreadman The non-VR version on PC runs just fine, but the VR version runs like absolute garbage, and has for years.
Re: Bite-Sized Ratchet & Clank Will Prove Size Matters on PS5, PS4
The non-Insomniac Ratchet games aren't perfect, but they're still fun entries into the series. Glad more people get to give them a try.

Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2024 So Far?
Games on the list? Probably Stellar Blade, it's just such a great game, with Infinite Wealth as a runner up.
Not on the list? Another Crab's Treasure and Nine Sols are tied for me. They're both such good games.
Side note, DLC wise, I'd go with Side Order from Splatoon 3.
Re: Elden Ring's Difficulty Destroyed By New Shield Weapons, as Players Call Them 'Absolutely Busted'
I'm actually curious to see how From will nerf this, if they do. Probably shorten the I-frames or increase the stamina usage.

I do miss Smash at Evo cause competitive Smash is just as entertaining as Tekken and Streets for me.
