Can't say Game Pass is all mid games anymore. At least for this last year and change. NG4 is this / next month too.

And this is why the console wars are mad gay now, cause most of these Sony Stans be buying every month's big Game Pass title and playing them secretly in their PlayStation closet while subbed to Sony's own Game Pass tier of PS+ for the next 10 years.

What’s ng4

I tried IJ for a few hours and had to tap out. :francis:

Great graphics; music, and voice acting, but I’m not a fan of first person stealth puzzle games

I knew the decision to make it first person was a mistake when they announced it but I still tried.

Im like this with most ps+ games.

Cuz if I wanted your game I would’ve bought it. Im most likely only playing it now cuz I am desperate and the game I really want ain’t out yet or doesn’t exist 😭

The difference with gamepass is the games are there day one.

If you wanted to play IJ day one you could play it on gamepass.

That's not what he said...
That's LITERALLY what he said. The "full quote" doesn't change anything. This is a weird attempt at gaslighting I'm sensing here.

"It's on Game Pass. There's going to be a lot of people trying this genre for the first time. It was very, very important to make the onboarding stronger and better than other titles. That was a big focus.

"As for Game Pass… We know the behavior of players. They jump in for five minutes and they drop out. You can take a certain amount of decisions based on that, but at the same time, you don't want to make too many concessions. It needs to be a great game for the player who plays all the way through. That's the most important part for us, being the story-centric studio as we are. It's a hard balance. You always know that you should worry about that more, but at the same time, you care about the grand scheme of things."
The full quote doesn't invalidate or contradict the five minute headline. If anything, the full quote simply expands on why that would likely happen. There's literally people online that say they do exactly that. If anything, there's a few people weirdly annoyed that some people do this.

"players jump in for 5 minutes, then drop out"

"why is that?"

"stop asking questions. it's not that deep"
No one said "stop asking questions" Projection23.

The "full quote" explained some of that but you're too triggered to see that. When your blood pressure lowers you can come back to this thread. It's still warm outside go talk a walk frere.
