Not at all. The game caters so hard to PvE players. They got hoards of new content all the time. PvP content has been very, very scarce. And with the upcoming PvE only game mode… that should be proof enough how Rare is doing everything they can to keep PvE people happy. And I don’t say that derisively. It’s good, those people should be happy. But claiming the game is built mostly for PvPers is absolutely not a good take on the game.

What are you talking about? You don’t need to listen to a damn word anyone says. Just follow the waypoints, fast travel to everything. The game is a menu navigation simulator.

Not as far as I know. But it’s gotta, right? Via EA partnership?

Sea of Thieves. Since day 1. Best Gamepass title. Easy to leave and return to.

Deaths Door is a minor masterpiece.

Tunic is a major masterpiece if you want something deceptively cerebral (looks like a kid-oriented Zelda-esque adventure. It is not, I assure you.)

Frost Punk is a very fun city builder with unique elements and design.

Loophero is a sort of tower defense but not? Strange game. Strangely addictive.

If you haven’t played Jedi Fallen Order, get on it. Sequel is out and it slaps. Fallen Order itself has a better storyline than all the Disney sequels and Clone Wars (yeah, I said it) combined.

Not on Gamepass anymore, but bonus points for any former Gamepass title that was so damn good I ended up buying it when it left Gamepass. And that trophy goes to Crosscode. Maybe the 2nd best single player game I’ve played this decade.

Darkwood will be known as the last, actually good game to be given out via Games with Gold.

I absolutely recommend if economy management is your jam.

I love this game. Went through almost all the scenarios before burning out. Good stuff. Excellent console controls.

I tried to get into that, but I kept coming back to “why am I doing this?” Like… I can manage a village and it’s pleasant enough… But why?

Sea of Thieves. Always. For the chill vibes and whimsy. And then some Aliens: Dark Decent, for that high stress, anxiety adrenaline. I’m a fellow of extremes.

Came to say Outer Wilds. That end moved me.

The Last Unicorn by Beagle is word candy. Absolutely beautiful prose and imagery. But it is also a quick read, perfect for two days. Can’t go wrong.

Oof. Im on last stage and can’t figure it out

Sea of Thieves. Always. And always happy to show new sailors the ropes (literally).

When does plating become egregious? I dunno. But if this tasted good then I am in!

I’m googling that cast and thinking: is this a teen film?? Like, who the F are these people and why do they all look like children?

Do… Do I have to pay for CTV? Like, isn’t that one of the free channels? Is their on demand stuff paid?

I can sympathize with much of what you wrote. My review is: this show is the dopest ST content we’ve gotten for the last decade.

I feel this in my bones as an anthropologist when it comes to semi-structured interviews, which frankly have very little to do with anthropological inquiry but have nonetheless become a rote methodology.

This is so wildly unnecessary and wildly awesome at the same time

Dang this looks SO close to what I’d want. It’s just missing big ass creatures.
