I just played Return to castle Wolfenstein again. Too bad the public servers are 100% bots all the time. I know it’s old but I expected at least one or two other players.
I have to start with the first entry so I can see how the franchise evolved over time, for example, I recently started playing the Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest games, I have played the first three games from each franchise and that has helped me to understand the good, the bad, and the ugly from each entry.
I found it the first RPG-ish I have spammed skip on the dialogue. Which felt odd to me, since I always sink into a RPG (even if this is a action game with RPG elements), but Avowed just felt a bit too surface-deep to me. It might not help that I booted up Kingdom Come Deliverance II around the same time…which reminded me of booting Phantom Liberty when Starfield came out.
It’s a good game, though. Solid, just not for me I think. I much preferred the writing, setting and mechanics (not to mention the atmosphere!) of The Outer Worlds.
Any diehard pillars fans who have played it? For the most part it doesn’t seem super well received but I wonder how much of a bump it gets for being in the pillars franchise. I loved the first two and would love to continue my time in eora. Haven’t dived in yet mostly because of the price tag, waiting for it to get to at least $60
Diehard might be pushing it, but I liked PoE1 and loved 2, even playing through the second game twice so I could try it out in turn-based mode. I’m really enjoying it but for different reasons than I enjoy Pillars. Sometimes games are worth $70, and I’m personally finding this one to be.
