“(XGP) Cool story with eye-catching environments, Avowed does a great job with world building. Combat is pretty good (especially for magic users) but the game still has some bugs that need patching.”

“(XGP) Cool setting, interesting premise & with some Myst-like puzzle solving. Much like Myst, in Blue Prince you'll need to take actual notes for some puzzles. Thorough investigation is encouraged.”

“(XGP) It's Oblivion with a fresh coat of paint at the cost of framerate/stability. Thumbs up for nostalgia but wait for patches if you can. YMMV if this is your 1st run, it feels dated in many ways.”

“(XGP) Awaken to explore & escape a quarantined region of the 🇬🇧 countryside or die trying. Environments look great & combat is hardest early on. Lack of fast travel is painful during side quests.”

“(XGP) The environments look nice & South of Midnight's story is pretty good, but exploration is somewhat dated & combat happens too frequently. This is a good title for XGP or on sale.”

“(XGP) After some time playing Balatro, I found it to be competently made but I don't see what the hype is about. Poker with rogue-like mechanics, YMMV on how much you like playing poker repeatedly.”

“(XGP) Restore the millenia old deified A.I. in the hope for a new golden age or maybe just the answer for what you seek. I liked Return to Grace, a good story & didn't drag on like Tacoma for example.”

“(XGP) Even with Machine Games at the helm, I've been surprised on how good the Great Circle is. What stands out is how immersion sim-like it is, cutscene performance are great & the gameplay is fun.”

“Royal adds a lot to the vanilla Persona 5 experience although the bulk of new content is gated behind player choices. It's a fun journey, but I found that Persona 3 & 4 had more compelling stories.”
