Jonas Mäki: "To entertain whomever is holding the controller is always the single most important quality a game has, regardless of genre, and while High on Life does made me chuckle a little now and then, for the most part I felt nothing but frustration and boredom, unfortunately."
Humble Bundle has introduced a new bundle, thanks to which you can get seven games for your Steam Deck for only $25.
Squanch Games will open pre-orders for physical standard and Collector’s editions of High On Life for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on February 27 via Limited Run Games and IGN Store, the developer announced. Pre-orders will close on March 31.
I guess it's better than no physical at all. I was using LR when they first started. I have Oddworld New and Tasty, Octodad, Shadow Complex etc. I fell off at some point and just felt I couldn't continue so I stopped. I just would much rather be able to purchase these games off Amazon.
I used to give into fomo a lot in the early days but I am much more choosy these days. I did play this on Gamepass back in the day and had a good time with it, so I have pre-ordered a copy as I'd like to Plat this on my PS5.
Does it come with the layer of dust this game deserves or do you have to work at it?
The recently released High on Life DLC, High on Knife, takes a jab at God of War Ragnarok's puzzle-spoiling mechanic that irked many players.
Yeah I heard a lot about this before I played, and then it almost never affected me when I played the game (the few times it did were with bird form Freya).
Honestly it makes me wonder if a bunch of people are just really terrible at puzzles and took forever to do them and got hints. It's either that or they patched the game to slow down the hints (I played about 5 months after launch).
Perhaps another dev will include content in their game mocking devs who devalue their work by giving their games away on streaming services and then expecting to be able to charge full price for it a year later?
That doesn't devalue their work. They get paid regardless. How you wanna spend to play is up to the consumer
Getting paid my MS still devalued their work squire. Rightly or wrongly, when they announced the PS5 version of the game, I didn't give two hoots. It was an old game by the time it came, all the buzz had gone and I knew it was free elsewhere; there was no chance I was paying full price for that
now old game, it wasn't worth it in my view.
Even in articles that have absolutely nothing to do with GamePass, someone will inevitably bring it up.
Welcome to N4G.
Sad when other developers put more effort into Mocking a flaw than Santa Monica does into fixing it
Then tell me where
and if you're saying that, you're saying the same about the actual developers too
Nah, jambola is correct and I was misremembering the setting. It was Time Delay for puzzles, not hint delay.
I remember my nephew playing the VR game, Trover Saves the Universe. He thought it was funny. Everyone else in the room was like "wtf?!"
I imagine this will be the same love/hate type of game, being from the same people, although this reviewer seems to think it's funny, just not fun to play.
I could be wrong here but in my opinion, if you are reviewing a game for a website, you should enjoy that type of game otherwise it has the potential to go over your head.
The game is probably funny for 10-year olds.
This game is absolutely not worth a 4 out of ten. I don't get these overly exaggerated negative reviews. If the humor aint your thing, that's oke, but the game functions well and is more than playable.
