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 don’t think anyone really cares about these negative reviews.
“High on Life has passed Minecraft to become the #1 Most Popular Game on Game Pass”
“High on Life is Xbox Game Pass’ biggest launch of 2022, the biggest 3rd party Game Pass launch of all time, and the biggest release of a single player-only game in the service’s history.”
I feel exactly the same way about Calisto protocol but most enjoyed seeing it battered. Personally I'm really loving it.
I just imagine people with my grandmothers sensibilities writing these crazy low scoring reviews. Anyone playing this knows exactly what to expect. Anyone reviewing the game this poorly either had their expectations way out of sync or just has an axe to grind against Roiland and co.
Just started playing and I like it so far, but I can understand why others don’t.
“Relentlessly unfunny”… lol
The author brought up some very valid criticisms for the game, but ultimately statements like this just sound like he got completely triggered by Roiland’s humor
