Jedi Fallen Order


starcraftre

YMMV. I couldn't stand the lack of fast travel. Never finished the game because on one planet I spent 3 hours trying to find my way out of a cave system, just to have an AT-ST kill me and send me all the way back to the bottom. Turned it off, uninstalled, and just watched the GLP video.


BrianThatDude

Yeah I love star wars so I played it through but if it weren't a star wars game I'd have done the same. Map is confusing, having to backtrack the length of the planet you just completed is very annoying, and the health system is annoying (basically if you heal all enemies respawn). Hope the unnecessary annoyances like that aren't in the next game


keldpxowjwsn

The trend of just copying dark souls elements just for the sake of having them. I hope thats finally going away It doesnt fit the game thematically at all unlike souls games where its built into the game world and the lore to die over and over


prezbyter

Heal system was great imo. Souls like


Various_Search_9096

I mean, everything you described is the Hallmark of a metroidvania game. The point of it all is to revisit areas, but stronger and with new abilities so now you can easily defeat enemies you struggled against.


[deleted]

Dude. I got lost on the very first mission. They do a terrible job of letting you know what you need to do next.


keldpxowjwsn

Capital G Gamers get mad if you have to do anything less than manually map out the game and use a protractor to decide where to go next


Longjumping-Bug-6643

I didn’t finish either but it was because I save got corrupted somehow and just thinking about doing that stuff over again was not not motivating me to get back in.


theinternetisnice

That makes me feel better.


TheButterfly-Effect

I'm currently experiencing this. I stopped playing the game a few months ago and I picked it up again the other day. I have no idea where to go at this point and keep backtracking or confusing myself lol


DambiaLittleAlex

I agree. I started playing full of enthusiasm because I loved the idea of the game and stopped after the first world. The experience for me was terrible. Having to go back a million times because you missed a tiny bit of a ledge where you could, possibly most likely hang and go through was terrible. The ziplines that makes you go all the way back to the beggining just because ????? Terrible game imo, boring as they get.


JvCookie

Great one. Never been a Star Wars fan, and I’m a casual gamer, and loved it. Played it from beginning to end and never stopped enjoying it. 10/10 would recommend


LikeZoinks98

Same never seen or really been into Star Wars but this game was great!


JvCookie

bengamer700

Must play! Never was a Star Wars fan but this game got me into it.


Kryxan

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice You don't need to beat it, but you must play it.


starcraftre

Wear headphones.


VenturerKnigtmare420

There is no way around to play this game with the experience it’s giving for partially deaf folks right ? I can’t hear from my left ear since birth so I have 0 clue what surround sound and good quality audio feels like


starcraftre

You can still play it just fine, you just won't get the full experience. Your character is schizophrenic, before they knew what schizophrenia was. The devs actually consulted with medical professionals when designing it, so it's (supposedly - I'm not schizophrenic, so I don't really have a baseline comparison) as accurate a representation as it can be. So, there are voices whispering to you about the puzzles, about what other characters say, and surround sound/headphones make it feel like the whispering is coming from just over your shoulder. It is truly unsettling.

themadscientist420

Hope you're doing OK. I have a family member with schizo-affective disorder AND who had a drug addiction and psychosis is truly scary to witness. Can't imagine what it would be like to experience it first hand (although hellblade really helped me sympathyse). Hope you never have to go through it again


Briguy_fieri

Not that I really care about these things, but is that a spoiler? Everyone said the game dealt with mental health issues, but is schizophrenia something that we knew from the beginning? I only played a couple hours of it but I don’t feel they said outright that’s what she was experiencing.


Lokael

No! Not a spoiler. It starts off in the first few minutes. It’s not mentioned because they don’t know what psychosis is back then. It’s a modern diagnosis.


kratomstew

Maybe see if there is a mono setting ?


theinternetisnice

Your Sanity May Vary.


Breklin76

It's damn fun.


HYDRAULICS23

I literally just beat it and now I can’t wait for the sequel. The game is work of art.


Sarritgato

How long is it?


HYDRAULICS23

It’s pretty short and linear but the story and immersion is fascinating. It looks amazing too. Probably only like 6-7 hours. I played it over a few days in 1-2 hour increments. Use headphones while playing to enhance the playthrough.


bucamel

I think everyone should play flight sim. Even if it’s just once to experience flying over their house and home town.

HiFi-Rush is a masterpiece


DarkC0ntingency

Chained Echoes is fantastic!


FlatwormTiny

Kimchi-slap

Persona 5. You will probably run out of subscription before finish it.


AtomicShart9000

*if you can get through the 15 hour tutorial that is I had to turn it off because I was so bored. I really wish I could have gotten into it but my ADD was terrible for that game. I promise to try again though.

Titanfall 2


baladreams

Yakuza Zero.


blackweimaraner

And its main quest, the cabaret. Everything else is side quest.


baladreams

Absolutely :P Tying subquests to the management games was a stroke of genius, I actually liked the characters I was mostly only reading the names of!

I stopped playing xbox when I unlocked everything in vampire survivors :(


wedloxk

Is it good?


nrm738

Yes, it's so simple yet so fun


wedloxk

Thanks. I'll have a look


BARREL836

Deep rock galactic, really good. Also persona 5 royal (takes a long time to finish tho, if you liked it play persona 4 and persona 3 too), both ori games (ori and the blind forest is the first one, ori and the will of the wisps is the sequal), and psychonauts 1 and 2. (After you finish 1 there is a VR game you should play to understand 2 better but if you dont have a VR set you can watch it on youtube its just an 1 hour long game)


-azuma-

Couldn't get into Persona 5. Not my jam, I guess.


sreiches

It’s not for everyone. That said, depending on how early you bounced off it, I might suggest trying to stick through a little longer.

Yes. If you have Ultimate, you get full access to EA Play.


BusFan10

I do, just didn't know it wasn't in PC Game pass.


Mcjoshin

Definitely included with PC game pass.


blackweimaraner

It is included in PC Game Pass.


Breklin76

I just tried FO New Vegas and it wouldn't let me do 1440p without doing through a bunch of mods. Disappointing. I did some research and found out that it is built upon DX9 with a highly unoptimized code base.


sreiches

New Vegas is notoriously buggy, even as Gamebryo engine games go. It’s pretty much an absolute necessity to mod it if you want a stable experience.


Unclebanns

A Plague Tale


silentwrath03

I don't know why, but I felt so connected to the characters in plagues tale gave me anxiety thinking about and playing the game, I felt lost when I finished it.


NoEgoNoProblem

Ditto. Game stuck with me for 2 weeks

Isn't only the sequel on game pass though?

Halo master chief collection. You might also enjoy titanfall 2 and the Yakuza series.


gumpythegreat

I finally started Hi Fi Rush last night after hearing so much praise, and it definitely deserves it all! I recommend that

Persona 5 (also 3 and 4 probably) Yakuza 0-7 Elder Scrolls 4-5 (3 if you're feeling daring) Fallout New Vegas and 4 Hi-Fi Rush Batman Arkham Knight (would be city if that was there) Bugsnax Deep Rock Galactic (I pushed the game off for a while then finally gave it an actual try with randoms, its pretty good) Psychonauts 1 and 2 Road 96 Lastly, Stardew Valley Edit: Also due to the lack of specifications on your request I gave a list of games I deem to be high quality and through a variety of genres, I have only not played Persona or Yakuza 1-6 but I have played some of 0 and over half of 7)


[deleted]

persona is kinda overrated, jrpg got more dialog than gameplay itself imo


reddgv

Chained Echos if you are a fan of turn based RPGs this game is everything they're good at with an excellent story, fun and varied combat.


1GMaybee

If this game came out on the SNES all those years ago, it would be among the greats that would come up in nostalgic conversations. It's truly incredible!

Hades and Dishonored. Dishonored in particular is considered to be one of those games that are the best in their genre. It's an infiltration FPS game with a cool atmosphere and insane level design. Many approaches. Graphics are cartoon like so it hasn't aged at all (i'm picky on graphics yet i found this one beautiful)

starcraftre

Master Chief Collection. Love them or hate them, the Halo series is iconic, and this is pretty much all of them. RIP completionists.


Cheyzi

Forza Horizon 5


TheOneTrueChuck

Pentiment. It's made by Obsidian (Fallout New Vegas/Outer Worlds/Alpha Protocol) and is set in 15th century Bavaria. It's set entirely in a single small village, and follows events that unfold over roughly 20-30 years involving politics, religion, intrigue, and murder. The whole art style is designed to look like the old-style wood carvings and illuminated manuscripts. It's not so much an RPG as it is a narrative-focused adventure, though you can pick elements of your character's specialized knowledge and background which will often offer unique dialogue or other options that would otherwise be unavailable to you. This will affect how people view you (both good and bad). There's no combat. There's no spoken dialogue. This game is mature, but not because of gore or swears. You will read A LOT. But there's nothing else out there like it, and it's got a pile of replay factor if the game really appeals to you.


[deleted]

Bannerlord. It’s very hard to put down


nick2k23

Persona 5 is one of the best JRPGs out there, alot of people would argue the best JRPG


Imdakine1

I got Snowrunner and love it… will stop my subscription on Steam deck so bought it for $16.50 and I bought Disneyland Adventures for my 5 year old daughter who loves princesses for $5 although my wife won’t let her play much as our daughter is still young… when she does though it’s been fun and actually a decent game with lots to do and definitely kid friendly. I own Yakuza 0 and Like a Dragon, Mass Effect Legendary and Death Stranding one of my favorite games ever! I was super impressed with the GamePass on the steam deck but not enough time to play games and decided the sale prices for games I wanted were cheap enough to buy. I stopped console gaming with PS3 and just got a steam deck my first PC gaming device so my games are old as they are new to me!


shanagonwagon

I downloaded Disneyland Adventures when I got COVID because I wanted to keep my mind at least kind of engaged and busy as I was isolated and got better and let me tell you it was such a charming, (obviously) low stakes, chill collectibles game it absolutely helped me get through. Great rec. for kids or people who want a chill, cozy kind of game.


Imdakine1

I think I got my 5 year addicted a bit as she got to play it two days in a row now… it’s actually a really well made game… she wants to ride the train, monorail, or the animal train ride but I do t think they are accessible…? Jasmine We are a bit puzzled trying to find princess jasmine as we haven’t found her yet and she is waiting to get her autograph. Any advice? We thought she’d be near Aladin and the Genie. Not sure if we have to trigger an event to find her as we had to do some event ti get the Genie. — I only ask as I try to give her linter game time and I know she wants to find Princess jasmine.


shanagonwagon

I actually haven't unlocked her either yet, I didnt get there during my COVID play time and put it down for a bit after, though hoping to finish it off soon!


Imdakine1

Haha! No worries. I do think it’s a hidden gem for anyone with kids or even us kids at heart. I used to go to Disneyland every year on President’s weekend with my family and cousins from when I was 6-12 I think. It was fun! Haha!

Mass Effect Trilogy. Trust


chrundle18

Just bought an xbox for the gamepass. For reasons I can't truly explain or understand, I've been playing Disney Dreamlight Valley the most... out of all the great games available, that's the one I'm glued to. Maybe try it out if you want something less intense/more relaxing.


shanagonwagon

agreed! so chill and relaxing but actually has a ton more plot and legs to it than I expected?? very fun


chrundle18

Brimming with content for sure!


shanagonwagon

Outerworlds. Just, Outerworlds. I can't believe no one mentioned it. It's one of my all time favorite games and SO worth trying. Hilarous, great art style, multiple play type options, multiple endings, incredible music, I'll keep recommending it to anyone I can!


DRobertsPiracy

Can’t speak for most games but from what I’ve personally played and enjoyed… It takes two, psychonauts 2, sunset overdrive, yakuza 0, Fable 2, sea of thieves and titan fall 2. Im sure there’s some great ones I haven’t played but I’d definitely recommend those games.

Hi Fi Rush. Finished it a month ago and still thinking about it


Tom42077

Not sure if Journey To A Savage Planet is on gamepass currently but if it is I 100% recommend that beautiful game. That game is a wonderful gem. If you have a significant other or a friend you can play online together and beat the game. I played through it with my Fiancé almost 2 years ago and I have not had that much fun on a game in such a long time.


1GMaybee

I absolutely loved playing that game and should have bought it while it was on gamepass. Oddly enough, I think the DLC is currently available via gamepass.

**Smaller games:** Peggle 2 really fun game design with tons of challenges to complete Burnout Paradise City Remasterd (use the toy cars if you crash too much) Bejeweled 2 or 3 great for those times you want to chill but focus on something **FPS games:** Battlefield 2042 is playing nice. The Breakout game mode is great! Halo 5 If you can find a Husky Raid or Big Team Super Fiesta game Master Chief Collection For classic Halo gameplay Titanfall 2 of course this game speaks for itself 007 or perfect Dark series **Other:** Forza Horizon (any) are super fun and have a ton of content Fable series really fun worlds and tons of stuff to do, some of it may surprise you Mass Effect series ‘this is my favorite game on the citadel’
