Ps plus crew?

You're not the only dinosaur Jake, we genuinely need shorter, simpler, fun games instead of feature bloated mess.

Game pass crew?

Immortals of Aveum just has a launch date with so many packed games like baldurs gate and starfield around it that it is pretty hard to notice, let alone spend actual money and time playing the game. I really hope it will somehow find some recognition.

I find it hilarious that I think this game looks refreshing, even though I've played many games like it. It's just been a while.

I like the idea of this game! Probably more a $40 pricetag than full AAA. Still kinda reminds me of Heretic from the 90s. Would LOVE to see a HEXEN remaster, remake, spiritual successor...something.

Not sure I like the look of the movement. Otherwise it looks great.

So... BRC when ?

The idea of a 11-12 hour game is great. I think about the length of games all the time as a dad, and husband and this is the perfect amount of time

“Why do you need to reload magic?” 💀

I had no idea about this game, but it does look like my type of game. I have kids and don’t really want to spend 50 hrs into a game before I get something out of it. It’s nice to just have something that I can relax and play for an hour or two and feel like I’ve done something.

Remnant 2, Baldurs Gate 3, Starfield, Armored Core 6. This game totally flew under my radar with the crazy release of games lately.

Hey Jake. I've been watching Gameranx and following your stuff for close to a decade. The other day my Dad tells me he watches that "Jake Ballarino" (nice try, Dad) " you know, the before you buy guy". He then did his best attempt at the "Jake in a suit" hands out in front pose. You know you've come a long way when a man in his sixties knows your gimmick. Well done sir.

I highly recommend picking this game up when it eventually hits like $30-40 around November. It's nice to have something with no stupid online requirement or shop.

I'm currently playing this game, and I love it so far. Started it the other day, and I'm already 6 hours into the story. I'm looking forward to finishing this game. The lore and gameplay have drawn me in.

Always brings me joy to see someone just appreciate a game and its feel over checking all the boxes. Great video as always, mate. 👍

I agree we need more games like this. 10 years ago I was constantly going through different (great) campaigns [Halo, Uncharted, Dead Space,…]

I’m glad you put this video out. I love the combination of hand magic type stuff. So, this looks right up my alley! I really like games like BioShock and Skyrim while using hand magic. Thanks for putting this on my ‘radar’.

Even though I’m not going to buy it any time soon, when it goes on sale and this crazy year of games is over I’ll pick it up. I really want games like this to do well, because we need more games like it.

I'm excited for this. I'm one of four people in the world who still uses Gamefly, and linear straight forward action games are perfect from time to time between those huge AAA 100 hour RPGs.
