I have a feeling this game is gonna be in a pretty good state by the time it gets to Game Pass next year

Probably. I would bet before that though. I expect games to contain bugs these days, they are lot more complicated to make under the hood than people realize.

Nice and whoa the patch is huge 33gb for me. And for those 'waiting' to play, the game has been completely playable from start to finish for a while now.

With GoG Galaxy I can access games on Steam and Epic. So what that poster said about a 'closed steam garden' below isn't true. And Origin games can also be played through Steam now as well with their thin client.

I don't know what people even refer to when they say 'waiting for it to be fixed'. I already finished one ending a month after this game was released and encountered no game breaking issues. The story is complete as-is, there is nothing to fix about it.

A 128gb 2230 cost 20$.

We can't even live sustainably with our own climate, let alone terraform another planet's

Musk kno s that along with other ultra rich. They want off this planet at all costs so they don't have to deal with plebians.

I hope the rogue squadron movie is good! I wonder if they will de-age Denis Lawson and Mark Hamill.

Imo it would be way better as a tv show. Condensing all those books into a single movie is going to be difficult unless they focus on events in just the first couple books.

A very vague announcement. I mean all of those already were re-released, so perhaps they are making them all look like that recent Dragon Quest announced game which basically uses the same styled-engine as Octopath Traveler (HD-2D).

Dammit, I am getting AMPED up for this, like a sucker for the 6th time.

I would just be mindful of pre-ordering FOMO which they are good at from a marketing perspective. I remember BF3,4,5 being very rough at launch - they pulled a gotcha on me 3 times, so at least for me, I intend to wait a bit to buy after launch to assess how stable the game is.

Whoa Joan of Arc? I wonder if they remaking my favorite AoE 2 campaign ever.

Looks interesting. I wonder if this is meant to be a prequel to BF2142 (and an eventual remake of that game). In any case, I don't think I'll be getting this at release as a pre-order - I've felt like a DICE betatester ever since BF3. Every single release is bugville.

The main downside (which may not be a downside to everyone else) obviously being how all these games are progession based with unlocks, so I will likely feel overwhelmed. The vehicle upgrade path, for example, in BFV felt incredibly gated and annoying - most of which had upgrades (like on tanks) that were clearly better than everything else. I never go to use the Stuka with anti-tank cannons because I could never level that particular one up.

MP games are now in this Era of waving bananas on a stick to take advantage of our monkey brains.

Looks unusual and interesting.

I am just waiting for the trial to end, the judge to rule in Apple's favor and finally unleash crippling financial burdens upon Epic to cover Apple and the court's costs.

why?

Sounds like marketing terms.

I would be a little disappointed if this is another FPS with the U.S. vs. China, Russia, or an ME country. It would be more interesting if the U.S. is the baddy.

Definitely a good story/character interaction game. But yes, a bit messy.

I expect them to hit their stride with that IP, and be more comfortable with the new world they built, with Cyberpunk 2 or Cyberpunk 3 in the years to come.

Man y'all below seem to ask the impossible. If you want your dream game, start your own studio.

Just from watching the whole thing you can see things that are 'innovated' and new to AoE. A major step up from AoE 3 at least. It'll never be AoE 2, that's fine.

Wow, that looks really cool. I hope the SP is the same style as AoE's history narration.

I'm honestly impressed they keep delivering for these games. I finished/played AoE 3 DE SP recently for the first time, not as challenging as AoE 2, but pretty fun.

Regarding that instagram article, Social Dilemma talked about that too. I think certain tech is outpacing the human brain to adapt/process in the age we live in.
