Dropped LaD Ishin a couple of hours in, too much yapping and it controls weirdly, understand it’s a PS3 game underneath so yeah.

So anyway, Is Lamplighters League in a good state now?

FYI everyone, the EA Trial of Immortals of Aveum is out now, but it’s not in the EA Trial sub-section of the EA Play app, you need to go to the Microsoft Store page for the game. It’s not a timed trial, but a progress trial - up to and including Chapter 3 (out of 18).

A lot better, but still the occasional crash to dashboard. I’ve had no issues with losing my save files now. Really love the game. Quick Tip is to save the game just before you enter the escape area and the level ends, as that’s where I’ve had most crashes.

A mistake or the the game could return to the service?

Saw that on my brother’s dashboard yesterday when he was using his Xbox. It’s been gone for quite a few weeks now too, hasn’t it?

I’m guessing it’s just a mistake and was meant to be a P5T ad.

Yeah I think 1Nov

Against The Storm is coming out in it’s 1.0 version on the 8th of December and it’s also releasing on Pc Game Pass. Considering how MS is doing these ~RTS/Tactical things with partners, i expect it to come over to console game pass eventually too. 15k extremely positive reviews on Steam.

Playing Eastward right now as it‘s leaving Game Pass. Pretty mixed experience overall. I absolutely love the pixel art and how expressive characters feel. It’s easy to get absorbed into the world of Eastward. But there are also some big pacing issues and several dialogues are very long. The gameplay for both combat and puzzles is serviceable but not outstanding. The game both evokes Earthbound and Zelda vibes somehow, but never reaches those heights for me. I‘m close to finish the game though, so I still enjoyed it quite a bit.

Yep I agree, I dropped it after 3-4 hours because I felt doing a lot of filler and the good stuff was diluted. The team has great capabilities in art, world and characters, but went out of their scope in gameplay and dialogue. Game could’ve done more with less. I could see them make something really special if they make a 4-6 hour game.

I really enjoyed eastward, was one of my favorite titles I played this year, outside that stupid matcha mini game

Woke up this morning to a dozen threads on reddit that remnant I&II are shadow dropped on gamepass. Is this showing up for people on here? That would be a good pick up. Was looking at the sale for the second one

Just when you thought the second half of this month was a bit on the small side and also not super great, they drop this. Surprises like these are awesome.

That is a very strong December. December often is one batch, right?
