SithaerIdk why the hate around here but to me Atlas Fallen looks like a fun game, I'm not picking it up right now but I'm defo keeping an eye on it cause I like such games.

AusWolfYour last two words say it all: it looks exactly like "such games". At least I don't see anything that would make it stand out in any way.

SithaerAnd it doesn't have to, not every game has to re invent the wheel or something as long as its fun and not relased in a garbage way like most of 2023's titles.
Thats all that matters to me really.

AusWolfImo, there's way too many films, TV series and games these days, so any new creation has to give me something extra to make it worth my time playing/watching it instead of playing/watching something else. Being "okay" is not enough. But each to their own. :)

SithaerWell what can I say I'm a simple man in general whos maybe easier to satisfy than most around here so ye. :laugh: 'both with games and hardware'

Space LynxIt isn't just a copy paste though, based on what I have seen the whole sand theme is really awesome looking with these next Gen graphics. I will probably pick this up if it reviews well and and only when it hits the 20 dollar bin or under. I rarely pay full price for a game these days.

AusWolfIt has sand? Um... okay? That doesn't convince me. I've watched the trailer, and couldn't pick a single thing that would make it look like an AAA title to me. It's just my opinion, though.

AusWolfOh, I'm very easy to satisfy with hardware! My spare card is a 6500 XT that I love to bits. :laugh:

But games are a different story. I'm a very slow gamer. It takes me months to finish a game, and with that much time invested, I have to make sure it's worth it. Also, I grew up playing legends like Half-Life, Age of Empires 2, TES4: Oblivion, The Witcher, and such, so I expect no less in quality. :ohwell:

SithaerI've also played those games back in the days, well HL 1 only in the recent years via Black Mesa but you get the point.:oops:
I'm also fairly slow at finishing games nowadays and have a never ending backlog.

From the look of it Atlas Fallen will join that backlog cause I can hardly finish what I'm playing currently and I already have plans to play other games.:laugh:

QuietBobSome original combos in this week's lineup! WrestleQuest and Stray Gods stand out to me, and being a huge fan of musicals I might give the latter a try.

With a handful of exceptions, modern AAA releases are of zero interest to me from the gameplay perspective. Been having much more fun with indie releases and classic titles for a few good years now.

8tyoneI might go for Atlas Fallen, if its good.
