As long as it stays customisable I’m fine with it.

I mostly play on the Xbox anyway even though the dashboard is frustratingly full of ads and basically all customisation was removed…

I don’t really bother but I do have some related stuff like unofficial patches and fan remakes/mods of my favourite games.

F1 Manager 2024

I like to play it while watching a movie on another screen.

Get them a month (or 3) of PC Gamepass so they can play everything and find out what they like.

That’s good to hear. My daughter is a bit older than your kid and she loves Goose Game so much.

A Short Hike

Untitled Goose Game

I played it when released to Gamepass and it got boring quickly so hopefully now there is more to it.

It is a beautiful looking game though.

There was a plan for a DVD add on but obviously the console died before any of that stuff was released. I still think that was a minor reason for the failure though as it was more about consumer/studio trust in Sega.

It died with Dreamcast but the console was certainly not the cause.

That was a nice article. A sensible way to make a game and I hope it does well.

no time to admire the view

Apparently everyone wants instant gratification and we need to be on to the next scripted moment, then the next one, and the next… No time to admire anything you see.

The best thing about Gamepass is all the non-AAA games that I wouldn’t normally get to play because there is a lot more variety in them.

The store page literally says “steam deck playable”…

Also with this you will get a key to add the game(s) to your Steam library.

I’m not even sure what I just read…

I feel like this is lost on most people nowadays which is sad.

I don’t doubt what you say but there is a whole other audience that don’t care, want or need it to be on Steam. I’d assume the crossover between open-source fans and Steam isn’t much… and commercial success isn’t the focus.

You don’t need to wishlist it though?

I know a Steam release is planned down the line but it is a free game so you gain nothing by having it on Steam compared to standalone version.

For anyone reading, have a look at Beyond All Reason instead.

I wouldn’t go that far but I do block users that post this shit.

Yeah… no thanks. They should have kept the COD name away from whatever monstrosity this is…

Great video though.

I very much doubt that people are watching games exclusively though. They are probably working, playing a game themselves (I watch while playing Football Manager etc…) or glued to their phone.
