Re: Ubisoft Moves To $70 Price Point With Next-Gen-Only Skull & Bones

Krzzystuff

I don't get the price increases. People can say they haven't changed in years blah blah blah...but why have they been making record profits all this time? It's clearly just to get the profits up for shareholders. With a ton of folks buying digital they eliminate a ton of the second hand market as well.

Personally i just play gamepass as it's already more than I can play with my limited gaming time. Work, kids, life just takes up too much time.

Re: Xbox Boss Praises God Of War Producer Following Dramatic 24 Hours

U don't have the time or spare cash to have multiple consoles so unfortunately i won't be playing GoW as i switched to team green. I know it's coming to PC but i really don't enjoy playing on the PC, I'm a console simpoltan. But it's good to see the key figures in the industry telling people it's okay to play games on all platforms and you don't have to hate the other's to enjoy one.

And let's be honest....High on Life is what everyone wants to play. Cory is delaying GoW so he doesn't get overshadowed by it.

Re: Halo Infinite Dev Provides Detailed Response To De-Sync Issues

Krzzystuff

I understand the person was trying to get some information out but folks aren't happy with 343 and the handling of the game....i think they should just keep quiet and get stuck into the work. Anything they say will always turn into an unnecessary distraction that they will now have to handle somehow. Just get cracking on the game.

Re: Pick One: Which Of These Upcoming Game Pass Launches Are You Most Excited About?

Krzzystuff

In order of awesomeness in my eyes top 5 are:

High on Life
As Dusk Falls
Atomic Heart
Plagues Tale
Redfall

Forza will be crazy and I'll play it but I'm not a sim racer so not expecting to stick with it. Starfield is a bit scary due to it's size....yes size does matter. Stalker 2 was almost in the top 5 and my oldest is pumped for Slimerancher 2. Minecraft legends will be something I can hopefully couch co-op with the kids.

Hopefully everyone has something they want out of the list

Re: Xbox Launch Exclusive 'High On Life' Was Once Meant For Google Stadia, Says Report

Krzzystuff

@NEStalgia I'm glad i had the ability to get it from the library to try it for free cuz ya....it's definitely not for me. The hype was massive for the game and I was getting caught up in it myself. Glad that the folks that enjoy these types of games are happy.

Back to the topic i do hope that the humour is top notch in High on Life and that playing it again with a different gun is different enough to warrant a replay...i almost never replay campaigns.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 18-19)

Krzzystuff

@Bobobiwan absolutely not my friend. Id say i have like 5-10% of the gaming time required to actually try and play half of what gamepass has. I blame the multiplayer aspects of games cuz they fun and you don't move on vs the one n done story stuff. I try and force myself to focus on the campaign games here n there. I honestly think i need to make a chart and plan what I'm playing and when when. It's just too much.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 18-19)

Krzzystuff

Getting some game time this weekend with the kids so I've started TMNT last night and then played FH5 and Halo Infinite last night with my buddy that just got a series S. Will likely play some Mario Party or Kart at some point, maybe more TMNT, likely more Halo and Forza with buddies again. Was hoping for some time to try Elden Ring but hasn't happened yet lol

Re: Xbox Summer Demo Event 2022 Announced, Will Feature 30+ Games

Krzzystuff

@BAMozzy huh...if that's the case then yeah it's pretty dumb having it behind the gamepass paywall. Is there any article with the details on this? I honestly thought that having the demos like Sony for non gamepass titles made a lot of sense for all parties involved, what your saying isn't as solid a business plan lol.

Re: Xbox Summer Demo Event 2022 Announced, Will Feature 30+ Games

Krzzystuff

I thought that the demo stuff they were talking about for gamepass was for third party games just like Sony but they would actually pay the developers. So folks like me who only play gamepass could actually try a non gamepass game abd see if i actually want it or not. For the vast majority of casuals there is no need to play anything outside of the service so this is a great idea for publishers. I'm literally just installing Elden Ring now because I'm able to get games at my library and have a series x with a disc drive.... that's not ab option for everyone. Never would have tried the game otherwise....but with a demo i could.

Re: Phil Spencer's 'No-BS' Approach Convinced Obsidian To Join Xbox

Krzzystuff

I still need to play outer worlds but these guys seem to have a good humor about them and make a wide variety of games... always good to have a studio making multiple genres from a business sense. And great for the teams to be able to bring different ideas to life. Really a win win win because players get more unique stuff to play

Re: When Is The Xbox Games Showcase Extended 2022?

Krzzystuff

@Kooky_Daisuke "At least that way everyone would be happy."
No one and nothing can make everyone happy so not wasting efforts pursuing that is the best way to go. I do like voiced characters myself but i get that not limiting your character's voice to only a few options. There's a lot of voice lines they would need x however many voices.

Re: When Is The Xbox Games Showcase Extended 2022?

Krzzystuff

I might try to watch some of it at work but it's right after lunch and i have tball coaching duties after work so likely I'll be reading up about it afterwards and watching any new trailers. They typically stream the prerecorded show in a lower quality right... and then upload a 4K version...why not just have it in 4K to start with?

Re: Poll: How Would You Grade The Xbox Games Showcase 2022?

Krzzystuff

I gave it a B. I really like the way they just show games and gameplay but SoT and Grounded being there vs something else brought it down to a B. The whole Riot games stuff isn't for me personally either.

I really like that they are now focusing on games within the next 12 month's because as cool as it is getting a big announcement years out knowing what you will actually be playing I'd better. High on life and the Benedict Fox games looked really good. As dusk falls has been in my radar since they first announced it so can't wait to play that. Now give me some Slimerancher 2 information for my kid's tomorrow and I'll be happy.
