Absolutely crazy and wonderful new looking game from Double Fine. It looks a bit pedestrian in terms of gameplay but I think the overall style and uniqueness makes more than up for it. As easy as it is to dislike Microsoft at the moment, I'm happy there are still people there who say 'yes' to pitches like these.

This has released and pulled some decent scores...

 

 

 

I think it's actually weak in terms of gameplay but as art it's supposedly excellent according to some of the reviews, that's where those divisive scores are coming from.

I might start a thread once I've played a bit more, but unless something changes I'm really not seeing what's good outside of the presentation (it looks and moves great tbf, lovely animation to it)

Tbh I think that's what got it the good scores... I've downloaded it but I'm not entirely sure I want to play it.

[Maf]

I’m surprised you have interest in it at all @Nag lol. But good for using Gamepass for it’s best use case, just trying shit you wouldn’t normally buy

 

I was downloading this earlier which is how I discovered Ball X Pit was on GP as well. Alas, despite best intentions, I have been consumed by Pokemon 

[Nag]

That's what I'm trying to work out... if it's nothing but some kind of puzzle walking thing then I'm probably not interested.

[Maf]

Play it and find out. It’s the best way 

[Nag]

There's only so many hours in a day... and there's not enough to waste on bullshit.

[one-armed dwarf]

Speaking my language. Not on this game I mean, but wasting time on bullshit. You won't ever get that time back you know, the 80 hours spent replaying FFVII Remake for some reason

[Maf]

Boring ass and incurious. Just can’t relate 

[Nag]

Don't you worry that curious little head of yours.... 

 

[Maf]

Sorry for being a dick. It’s not very nice. But just like, if you’re posting reviews and looking at it, why not download it and play it for an hour and see if you take to it. What else were you going to do with that hour?

 

RE: FF7R. I wanted to like it! If anyone remembers what I said in between all the hating I almost did. But then came full circle and hated it again. I always want to like what everyone else likes and gave it the best go I could

You could have spent that 80 hours reading Plato stroking your beard and satisfy your curiosity that way! Nag agrees with me.

 

Sorry, I'll stop trolling now. For the time being anyway 😵‍💫

Play something I like... but you know I could waste my time on stuff that doesn't suit me. 😉

[mfnick]

Yea don’t bother @Nag I played a couple of hours last night. It’s meh and not for you from what I know. 

[Nag]

That's the kind've review I like, consider it deleted... nice one @mfnick

[shinymcshine]

From what I read, it's a pretty short game too (4-6 hrs ?)
