No idea what SkateBird is going to be like, but will probably give it a try.
Never played the first Aragami, but it looks interesting given I adored the original Tenchu so I'll likely try that out too
So many games so little time
Tails of iron or song of iron?
Nexomon
Can’t wait to see where the adventure started.
I'm interested in Nexomon, I hear it's really similar to Pokémon..
I have never before heard of SkateBird, and I probably don't care, but that trailer mocking their own delay makes me want to give it a go.
I’m eager to play Aragami 2, even though I haven’t played the first one.
@Clankylad They went in such a different direction than most people were asking for. I'm so glad Stardew Valley exists!
@Widey85 ID@Xbox released a demo months ago. First look was, funny, could work, but maybe not deep enough vibes. A bit like Tony Hawk (Bird )
@Pusher2021 Could be worth it for a laugh / chill out lol
Wasn't Skatebird a Nintendo Indie showcase title a while back? There have been so many "OMG WE HAVE INDIES!" presentations lately that I've lost track along with most of my ability to care. That said, The Artful Escape is a beautiful not-really-a-game game on Game Pass. Satisfied my "small devs make good stuff" urges for the month already.
@swedetrap I really enjoyed The Artful Escape. Thought they executed their game near flawlessly. Yes Skatebird i think was first shown on a Nintendo Indie direct. Luckily it's coming to game pass.
I played Skatebird as one of the E3 demos in 2020 (where they had like 50 demos on Xbox) and… it was terrible. BUT it was super Alpha. Hoping it has improved vastly (and i’m sure it has).
How on earth someone comes up with the idea for that fish game but decide to call it "I am Fish" instead of "Fish Out of Water"???
I think I may actually try Nexomon.
Edit: Saw it was $9, so now I've got it pre-ordered. I normally don't pre order games (especially digital) but at that price, that's worth me trying it out. I've been itching for a Pokémon experience but hate how stale Pokémon itself has become.
Got Aragami 2 pre installed but after watching the trailers for I Am Fish and Skatebird I will definitely be giving them both a go just for laughs.
