cyberpunk007, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

Can’t help but lol at cod. Neat. Same thing as the rest?

The first two are awful for a console. Why would you want to play wow or an RTS with a controller?

miau,

Because its fun even if the input method isnt perfect. Specially so for casual gamers. Both ports for age of empires play really well on console and I suppose age of mythology will be just as great.

Laborer3652,

I’m clean now but back when I played WoW people said there was a mod that gave really good controller support. Its very popular on the steam deck.

echodot,

Same for Microsoft flight simulator. Why the hell are they putting that on a console?

Mako_Bunny,

FFXIV works really well on console and that’s a full MMO

I hear good things about what they did for AoE2 on controller, and the genre was long overdue for someone to solve that problem. I’ve got some hand and wrist issues these days after working at a computer for so many years, and I’ll always prefer a controller when possible.

Ilflish,

MMOs surprisingly have a strong controller play base mainly thanks to FFXIV. Considering it’s WoW’s strongest competitor, a controller layout is a solid idea

aStonedSanta,

I prefer ffxiv with controller. They really nailed the experience.

Katana314,

I mean, besides FFXIV’s famous layout, I think it’s not so unreasonable to attach a keyboard to a console for things like chat or the game interface. A few Xbox games even do just that.

Of course, no game can require a keyboard plugged in to play. But given the age of Guitar Hero attachments, a few extras make sense.

ryathal,

Keyboards need a desktop though, which isn’t really common for most console locations.

Well 4 new IP’s. That’s something at least. And indiana jones kinda. Am looking forward to that seeing as the last 2 movies sucked balls… Maybe it’s better than them?

Truly, a lineup worthy of all these Billions of dollars spent in acquisitions and thousands of lives fucked with layoffs.

Ephera, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

Wow, did they really name that game “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle”?

I don’t know, if Indiana Jones fans get really excited by that, but to me, it sounds like the guy has to draw on the board during maths class.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

Well, he’s a professor, and we saw him drawing on the board in the trailer…

But this is also from the people who made Wolfenstein: The New Order and New Colossus, so I’m sure this will be great.

LostWanderer, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

I’m most excited for Avowed, but it could end up being a stinker (unless the delay actually helps the game). The Fable trailer didn’t do enough to get me particularly interested in it.

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

Obsidian’s got a rock solid track record, and The Outer Worlds was great, so I think the odds are good on Avowed.

LostWanderer,

I played The Outer Worlds; it was great story wise. I’m merely worried as delays have often been a sign that a game is flawed and needs a lot of work that will happen after launch.

miau,

While I think Obsidian is pretty awesome I was disappointed with the outer worlds. Pentiment had a really interesting story though.

Zahille7, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

I’m pumped for the new Fable. Also the new Doom game looks pretty badass; I’m excited to try the gun that uses crushed skulls as ammo.

@18_24_61_b_17_17_4@lemmy.world avatar

This is my first time hearing about the new DOOM game. Is it in the same style as DOOM 2016 and DOOM Eternal?

Maestro,

Looks like it from the trailers

Zahille7,

It’s basically a “pre-threequel,” taking place before Doom (2016)

@lorty@lemmy.ml avatar

Do we even know anything about the game other than the fact it’s getting made?

Diablo IV DLC isn’t a game 😂

NewNewAccount,

Nor is Shattered Space, Starfield’s DLC.

@vikingtons@lemmy.world avatar

Starfield isn’t a game regardless of the dlc

Jaeger86, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

I’ve never been less excited for a line up

ampersandrew,
@ampersandrew@lemmy.world avatar

Honestly, you could do far worse than this. There’s some stuff in here that looks awesome.

echodot,

Basically I’m mildly interested in the back end of 25 and that’s about it. Although I’ve never been a diablo player so perhaps I’m not the best person to ask.

Even if I was interested in playing call of duty which I’m not I can get that on PC. In fact it would be a better experience on PC the console version is always frame rate limited.

criss_cross,

I think Avowed is the only thing I’m kinda excited for and that’s more of a “This sounds kinda promising” than “Oh shit I can’t wait!”

Jaeger86,

Like the only one I want to play is doom but I’m going to wait for that to go on sale just like the others. And idk if it’s exclusive but that just means I’m either playing it on my steam deck or ps5

simple, do games w Launch dates for upcoming Xbox games

They really snuck in the starfield DLC in there huh.

Microsoft’s first party lineup has been a joke this generation but it seems all their acquisitions are finally paying off, there’s a lot of good stuff there that I’m interested in - Avowed and Fable especially. Ara also looks good since Civ 7 is still far away.

cholesterol, do games w New Starfield free update added a ground vehicle

So is your car the only car in the universe? As far as I recall the only form of local transportation has been that miniature train system on New Atlantis. If your own transport ships need to travel to an outpost 200 meters away, they go to space and back to get there.

@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

There were several prop rovers on a number of locations, but they were just set dressing. This is obviously the only working rover in the universe

@vikingtons@lemmy.world avatar

You know I’m kind of amazed that Starfield has a 10k (24hr peak) playerbase according to SteamDB. Comparatively speaking, it’s doing better than other dumpster fires like halo infinite

SuperSaiyanSwag,

I did not care for Starfield, but I would argue that it is not actually a “dumpster fire”, just kind of a mid game. Maybe even slightly better than mid.

vikingtons,
@vikingtons@lemmy.world avatar

I’m inclined to disagree but perhaps I’m just jaded by prior entries built against that engine. With that said, it’s pretty unique to starfield that curiosity is never rewarded in this supposedly vast universe.

SkyezOpen,

The story was actually pretty interesting. The mechanics are… Decent. The game outside of the main quests? Don’t even bother.

Oh and fuck settlements and shitty load screen space travel. I loaded up elite dangerous just to feel like I was actually in space for a minute.

vikingtons,
@vikingtons@lemmy.world avatar

I found some of the side stories to be a bit more compelling than the main one. the movement and action felt a little bit better than fo4.

The settlements thing is wild. How could they have you sink any time into that when the game pushes you repeatedly towards NG+?!

And I love how the highest difficulty just makes everything into a bullet sponge. Nothing besides that feels more difficult; enemies aren’t more cunning, aggressive or accurate. Stealth and speech checks felt pretty much unchanged.

I think the ship combat and boarding could be spun off into a standalone mini-game. NMS is a clunky, goofy time but it’s funny how it managed to get interplanetary travel down on day one.

FeelzGoodMan420,

Agreed. It’s just very mediocre. Luma HDR mod is absolutely beautiful though, and I recommend it for anyone with a HDR monitor. It makes the game look absolutely stunning. It’s basically the only reason I played it lol.

Well this one was incredibly easy to identify, even with mods.

Dang, I might setup a new run with Skyrim Together to make it interesting
