madmaltese★ 2,553 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Okay so early impressions for those that care. It's Crackdown..... in all the good and bad way. Bad ways because I mean it is legit Crackdown. It feels like you're going back a gen or 2 in regards to open world games. With that said the orb collecting and actually feeling the improvement in your character is still as fun as it was in the original. You constantly have your level up meters on the side for all your abilities like agility, melee, gun combat, etc and it is satisfying to increase them. However it really is mono tone and repetitive. One hour or so in and you know the gameplay loop and will basically be going through the motions. Still, there is enjoyment there for those that like that. Chuck on a podcast and relax. Perfect for GP, would definitely not buy it though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 GD I think you like GP cause heres why I like GP. I like games, I like games that aren't even that good. GP has great games, gamepass has games id never buy without gp . I cool with playing a game until I get bored with it and just decide to quit. If I bought the game id be annoyed, but with GP I don't feel ripped off. Even games I wont complete to completion due to time issues or if I just decide its not for me , I can still have 5 or 6 hours of fun with it . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,553 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 A bunch more of Crackdown 3 and catching up on some titles I missed: Hellblade - Great game, not a 9/10 for me (so far anyway) because it is very limited in scope (which is fine) but some of the puzzles are quite tedious and annoying. The game is downright stunning graphically though. Ori = Holy shit this is spectacular. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

-GD-X★ 7,729 Posted February 16, 2019 Author Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Got gamepass going to finally play D4 and I’ll check out crackdown 3. But the goal this weekend - finishing RDR2. I’m gonna put a good 4 hours into it tonight. Edited February 16, 2019 by -GD- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I only played about an hour of it so I can't really say. From that hour it feels like a cheap generic pos tho lol . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,608 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Lmao Gameloft title is accurate . Maybe it gets better idk I'll continue on with it but I have anthem and kh3 , and also gonna buy metro so it'll probably be the loser out of the group Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,893 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) Metro is solid so far. The intro is actually really well done and they layer on A LOT when it comes to setting up characters and plot points. It feels way more fleshed out than the previous games in that regard. The shooting mechanics were never that good imo and they haven't aged well at all though. Im also skeptical of the open world stuff, but we'll see how that turns out (the beginning of the game is entirely linear).
