General Videogame Thread

Isn't there a try before you buy with Steam? Admittedly it's very punishing game at first but once you begin to level up its a lot more enjoyable best game of the last few years. Try Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborne if have a PS both exceptional games.
I know Dead Space remake had a 90 minute trial where you could play for free, but it’s not something widespread. They do offer full refunds on all games if you’ve played less than 2 hours though.
 
Loved platformers when I was younger including ratchet and clank, going to play all the ones on game pass. Not sure I can be bothered with celeste though after how stunning Ori was.
Celeste is probably in my top 5 games of all time. It’s difficult but the game design is such that I never found it to be a frustrating kind of difficult. When you die you instantly spawn in the same room to try again, so there’s no real cost or time wasted. You just go again.

Neither of these games are true metroidvanias like Ori and Hollow Knight, but they are roguelites with metroidvania elements - I recommend trying Dead Cells and Rogue Legacy 2.

I watched the speed run of Celeste on twitch it was crazy.
 
Subbed to Ubi+ for a month.

Playing the new Prince of Persia metroidvania. Brilliant game.

Looking forward to trying Assassins Creed Mirage and potentially Avatar too.
£15! Can't complain...

But for those who liked Ori, have a go on Prince of Persia - there's even a free demo - great game.

There’s a game coming out this year called Tales of Kenzera: Zau, which hits a lot of the same spots as Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. There is a free demo of it in the current Steam Next Fest, which ends on the 12th I think. So if you’re quick you can still try the demo of it. One to keep an eye on I think. Prince of Persia is better imo, but it’s still an enjoyable demo.

Not played Mirage yet, feel like £15 is abit steep for Ubi+ compared to GP ultimate, no idea why they went in at that price point.
 
Looks that way. Microsoft are set to make an announcement next week.

I also think gamepass will come to Sony and Nintendo via cloud gaming
Might sell my Xbox if that happens and get a ps5 for exclusives. Depends if the cloud gaming is the same standard as the normal stuff.

It is a bit steep but nice was about to buy Prince of Persia for £30 and so in essence I got it for £15.
If I finish it in time I'll also get to check AC and avatar too.
