Soon

 

[MasterCornholio]

Return to monkey island is a point and click game and has 87 aggregate, do you also feel the same about that ?

I really hate you know. I really love the franchise BTW.

 

[Kimahri]

Part of the fun is the fact you have to manage time.
But you could totally cheese you way through, though it will probably detract from your enjoyment of the game.

Not all Journos amarite.

But yeah the time management factor is part of what makes things interesting, I dont know why someone would dock the game for that.
It would be like complaining you cant upgrade all your weapons/characters to max on a single playthrough in game X because there is a limited amount of upgrade points or something.

Thats part of the gameplay, its part of what makes that playthrough unique and boon not a negative.

One of the worst things in gaming is when I've unlocked the entire skill tree before I'm anywhere near the end.

It's like now what?

 

[Fuz]

These are the same people that proceed to cry there's no variety in gaming anymore.

Nah, they don't. They just digest every CoD, AssCreed, Gow.

Hahaha I hate that feeling too.
You start to question why am i even still playing this.

Banjo64 : STOP THE COUNT

I think it was Ass of Can Whooping who said he’d drink cum if this game scored an 89 or more Personally, I want to see it.

 

[JLB]

Yup, my GOTY delivering.
Obsidian is a bless.

 

[jaysius]

IGN reviewer dropped that he has a Major in THEOLOGY as a fucked up stupid flex.



EDIT: It's seems his character has that, but the way he mentioned it sounded like the reviewer himself had one.

Just 2 more points and then frothy shake time

What's the problem with that?

I mean if he's probably working Starbucks and IGN is his side gig.

[Kvally]

I dont know about you but if i purchase a system made to play games like Xbox and Playstation at $500, i expect to play AAA big budget games. Games like As Dusk falls, Peppa Pig, Paw Patrol and Pentament can be played on a mobile phone, web browser or anywhere.

Jesus Christ dude. You just came back from a 2 week ban TODAY and you got yourself banned AGAIN today for a month? That's quite the accomplishment.

Edge reviewer in a tweet said he was loving it, if this gets a 9 or 10 from Edge which is one of the heaviest weighted reviews on Metacritic it might be final stroke of milk into that shake

I thought he was saying the character was a major in theology. Assumed you could pick the characters background. Maybe I'm bugging.

 

[Sanepar]

Can't wait to play this, just need to finish Plague Tale first(Chapter 12)

Available 8AM in Europe. Tomorrow is going to be glorious!

It's on 90 now.

Great reviews! A serious GOTY contender.

 

[Little Chicken]

I just remembered that somebody here promised to drink cum if it scores above 89.

Waiting for cumchug.mp4

 

[Markio128]

Reading these comments, it seems that this game involves drinking semen? If so, I’m giving it a hard pass.

 

[Little Chicken]

Edited: Sorry, off-topic

 

[Topher]

Yeah it's a bit like defending Stray's inclusion for GOTY at The Game Awards

Defending a game for GOTY reminds you of drinking semen?

Soooooon Ass of Can Whooping , very soon….

Both involve lots of salt I guess

well well well

 

[SirTerry-T]

Tell that to the people who complain about "no gameplay" in other games then turn around and praise a picture book.

But the picture book can give the reader a stage to use their imagination and fill in the blanks.

Of course all that depends on the reader having a modicum of imagination in the first place and not needing any storyline feeding to them in a high chair with a baby spoon.

Those same people complain about BOTW having no narrative because their little monkey brains can't form a narrative from their own experience and journey through the game.

That's probably a can of worms best left closed again though.

Stop fucking going up

Someone share this thread with the Edge reviewer. I know I’d give it a 10 if I understood the ramifications, as we on GAF do.

[Mister Wolf]

After Avowed, Obsidian will have solidified themselves as Microsoft's best developer.

Heh, you're probably right. I'm bugging, good catch.

 

[Roberts]

I'm so sorry I started this cum thing.

Can't wait to play the game and talk about it instead.

 

[Topher]

I don't plan on arguing about this low caliber game on a $500 system because I'll be banned for being a silly console warrior.

ftfy

 

[Gudji]

Or cum playing it.

[Deerock71]

I cannot wait to play this!

 

[semiconscious]

willing to check it out, but reading loads of text on a tv screen? i just know that it's gonna put me to sleep, cuz it's happened with other text heavy games...

 

[Goalus]

What's immediately obvious is that the game is not the product of a template that already spawned dozens of other games that are all alike. Congratulations, Obsidian!

 

[Robochobo]

Stop fucking going up

 

[Negotiator101]

Great scores, hopefully it does good business and we get more smaller risky games like this.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Stop the hate because my eyes are wide open and you're still stuck in Phil Spencer's matrix.

Don't mind me, just trying to capture this moment in eternity.

 

[Mercador]

it's on Game Pass PC too

Cross progression?

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

I wonder how this template will be translated to joshes next game. Can this be done in a AAA game if he does new Vegas next. Why I dies are always innovative leaders. Can be used as a blue print to truly be creative
