Mine is showing as just a beta, so no trophies.

Just downloaded and ok, seems quite light though.

Loved all the games but 3 and Wonderlands dip a lot, so they need to do something to improve it and not just more of the same (which I’d be happy with but still)

Or just bring back the Handsome One!

@DennisReynolds The Golden God speaks! Ah I forgot them, I stand corrected.

I am just bitter about the films!!

There has been nothing good involving Indiana Jones for the past 25 years, so I’m not expecting this to be any different. The 4th and 5th film wounded me deeply!

@IamJT That’s not how these internet people work! There will be people playing something like First Descedant for 500 hours without spending anything, and then complain it’s not good and there’s no real endgame content.

I liked the game when I played it originally. I don’t like it that much. Like the article says, who was even asking for this anyway?

@everynowandben The old one is Survivor and the new one is Survive.

Just got the plat on First Descendant so rather than just grind forever more, I’ll delete that and give Mount and Blade 2 a try.

I have really liked all these games. One of the only series where I think the story and world building is very strong, unlike most other forgettable games around these days. This 4th one is crying out for some 4 player PvE type drop in action with each person taking on a horseman.

Loved the first one (and all Steamworld games) so looking forward to this. Glad it’s kept the charm of the original!

@pharos_haven Every character is basically just a re-skin of a Warframe one at this point, with abilities take from another. Viessa is Frost, Bunny is Volt, Ajax is Rhino etc Ultimates are just Primes.

Stop with the Lego please!!

I’ve still been playing First Descendant, despite me at first being very negative. I have half-change my opinion but it sure is addictive!

Don’t like the games, but I think this could be really good! Will go in fresh not knowing the game plot etc so will be good to see if it holds up on its own without needing background info to be good.

I love Borderlands, so I will go and see it with an open mind, just to see the world realised.

The casting is way out though. Why they needed Jack Black to do the voice of Claptrap and not the original voice artist, I have no idea.

@trev666 I did too! I came to it 2-3 years after release. Barely any other players but I thought it was great - sadly still too bugged to play properly though. Had it the time/market to grow and launched in a better state, it could have been brilliant.

@Ainu20 Hit the nail on the head. 10 years ago Warframe had the space to slowly change into the game it is now (it was dire on release) and have the market to bring people slowly to it. The only reason I ever tried Warframe was because it was F2P and there were almost no other GaaS F2P games out (and I was too poor to buy a game). These days they are everywhere - so much choice that there’s never a need to revisit something old that wasn’t any good.

I have done a 180 on First Descendant, and am enjoying it after being overly critical last week. It’s still shocking how much they’ve copied Warframe and Destiny, and it isn’t as good as either of those, but it is mindless fun. Like the gaming equivalent of a dirty kebab.

@rjejr On the phone app, I don’t have a browser I can use. I’ll try on the console store then and see if I can remove it, I don’t think I’ve ever looked on it!
I guess my point is consistency in access. Shouldn’t have different functionality based on the method of how to access it.

You know what else is annoying? If you purchase something BEFORE taking it off the wish list, it stays on there but you can’t then unheart it. My wishlist of full of games that say ‘Purchased’ instead of a price!

I think this makes sense and is a fair thing to do. Not every game needs an evil option. Yes it’s an RPG but there’s limits on all stories, if you’re trying to make a story about a group of good heroes, then sucking the life force from someone’s blood doesn’t exactly scream goodness.

Really looking forward to Mount and Blade.

Regardless of the game, I just can’t get behind the dev team who have so blatantly ripped off other peoples work.

Utterly shameless rip off of Warframe, Destiny and Outriders. It’s not bad, but just not as good as those three. However playing it, whatever fun there is just leaves a sour taste in my mouth whenever I realise how bad the plagiarism is.

The game rips off Warframe hugely, it’s a blatant copy paste of that, but worse in every way. I’ve put in 20 or so hours hoping it’d get good, but it’s just plain bad and unoriginal in every way.

I have finished the campaign in Anno 1800 and am away for a few days, so while I consider if I want to keep playing it for a while post-credits, I’ll just be on Marvel Snap until I get home.

Hey if it’s compared to Warframe then I’m giving it a go!

Is this patch applied to the free trial? Haven’t started it yet.

Having a great time with Anno 1800. Size of the UI and console controls and a story mode have made it quite accessible and fun to play.

Was just saying this needed a demo yesterday! Will try out this weekend.

I loved the first one but I can’t seem to get onboard with these remasters. Compared to modern day gaming, everything about them frustrates me. I wish they’d do more proper Bluepoint-esq remakes instead.

Having said this, I do think this particular game was an underrated classic!!

This game really needs a demo or trial on the store, just for people to test out the fps rates etc

Dave IS a buxom beauty! How dare you!

@Anti-Matter If only they made a 3rd one, I would love that!! The second one is amazing and far improved on Minecraft imo.

I loved it at the time! But as with most games of that era, borderline unplayable now.

For the Emperor! This looks great. First one was brilliant so glad they’ve built on that in seemingly every way.

I enjoyed it! Just a fun no-brains action film.

I only really liked the first one, and I read a lot of the books which were quite good. But I wasn’t a fan of the changing games after. Now that this is so far removed from that first game and style, I might enjoy it as a different fantasy action game.

Rubbish month. A switch port and several strategy games with tiny UIs.

My boy, who has always told me the metal music I listen to is ‘boring’, is now asking me to listen to some Metallica as he’s excited for this. So that’s a win I guess??

Looks fantastic! I don’t think it’s so much like Ubisoft-format fatigue that’s around at the moment, but more like Far Cry and Assassins Creed fatigue, because I’m more than happy for that tried and tested formula to be applied to other IPs.

You know how Kill the Justice League did everything wrong and became the biggest flop of the year?

BioWare “Hold my beer…”

I played online for the first time recently after a lifetime of single GTA games. For new players it’s incredibly bloated, with very little new player introductions to mode mechanics, and a lot of those mechanics are very dated compared to modern day online games. I’ve had some fun in it solo as playing with other people is just endless griefing or like the solo missions, wildly unbalanced. New updates like this would do nothing unless you’re already a vet.

But it’s undeniably GTA and that means it’s core is daft fun, I am very hyped for what a brand new and updated modern online mode in GTA6 will bring.

Do any of these shows impress anymore? Can’t remember the last time we had one where the general consensus was that it was full of exciting new reveals.

@BamBamBaklava89 Agreed, nobody is completing that grind to get Agent Smith for free.

I enjoy the game, but it’s very basic (no end of game stats?) and the whole thing seems designed to get you to grind or pay. Would be much more enjoyable to have some custom mode selections and all the fighters and just have it as a normal priced game.

@get2sammyb 100% Wetherspoons for this. Imagine a Tekken level in a spoons, knocking over someone’s pitcher of cocktail and £2 pint of Fosters, while a Monday curry special goes flying. Amazing.

Astros Playroom was an absolute joy. Took me back to being a kid and seeing Mario 64 for the first time. Loved it. Cannot wait for this!!

I am dipping more into GTA Online, but as I’ve never played it before, it’s hard to know where to even start.

Otherwise a few rounds of Multiversus which is fun, but I don’t know how much longevity it has as it’s about as deep as a puddle.

Possibly the worst month I’ve ever seen.

Chargeable cosmetic DLC? That’s just another name for microtransactions. It’s the same thing!
