Poor drop, but I can forgive them after the incredible first one.

Still Wakes the Deep releases today on GP btw.

This is dire. But next month is looking ridiculous, so whatever.

Flintlock, Kunitsu-Gami, Dungeons of Hinterberg.

P.S. Chances of Hollow Knight 2 dropping at the direct in 1 hour increased from 0.001% to 0.01%.

Not the best second fortnight of the month. But we come from a fantastic first fortnight and many fantastic months. I guess we're getting used to it. Next month looks good from the start, however.

The negative point remains the fact that ABK games remain MIA.

It's getting a bit silly that once again no ABK games at all. I guess some stuff still hasn't been finalised yet? Even though we did get Diablo 4. Some communication on this would go a long way.

Steamworld Dig 1 & 2 are awesome, but they're old games you can purchase super cheap.

And a shame about FIST going away, it was a pretty cool metroidvania (although I abandoned it half way through after getting lost).

They had the Hellblade release in the first half, I'll give them a pass on these. Can't say I'm familiar with anything listed outside of FC24.

Not every drop will have quadruple A games each week, but on game pass just within the last month I've played Hellblade, Octopath 2, Lords of the Fallen, Little Kitty Big City and Still Wakes the Deep is releasing today.

Everyone has their preferences but I've been pretty happy with the GP offerings recently.

Depends on how you game. I'd rather make my own choices on what i play based on what i want and not what a subscription service offers me. I did that for a while and lowkey stopped liking gaming as much and couldn't put my finger on what it was. That and rushing through a game because it's leaving the service in a few days. Hell no. Not for me.

Then subscription services aren't for you. That's fine and you don't have to feel bad about it. Not every thing is meant to be enjoyed by everybody.
I've been a subscriber pretty much since the beginning and not only have I been gaming more, it also made me branch out and try genres I thought weren't for me.

My backlog is insane and I have at least 50 hours I need to put in to ER DLC, after last month this doesn't bother me at all.

Very ordinary month. Almost the last set of games with gold trash tier of games, if it weren't for the Steamworld Dig games. They are decent.

Also, this is the only way I'm spending time on that yearly trash: Fifa. Literally around 40% of my friends list play the newest shit during it's launch, and I still don't get wtf is new in them. It's the same fuckin' rehashed trash gambling simulator every year, with lesser chances in FUT.

Hey football GAF, how easy are those achievements in fc24 tho? Asking for a friend. Lmao

Wtf is this? Is it an invitation to cancel Gamepass? You can at least make an effort....

Of course, a not so good second fortnight invites you to stop subscribing after a magnificent first fortnight and many many months of very high quality releases.....🙃

It's the typical Gamepass release thread where many "strangers" appear to criticize the latest GP releases and show that they don't know what a month really is and definitely the reality of releases in the service....🤔🤗

Glad I waited for FC 24. My son and I are almost at the end of the 10 hour trial. We're happy about this drop!

Interesting month - except F24, all other games seem to be targeted at more or less the same gamer type. Some games are a bit more hardcore and nerdy than others, but they all have mining/building on their mind. Btw, My Time at Sandrock seems to be a sequel to My Time in Portia and that was one of the better Stardew Valley-type games.

I've not had gamepass for like 2 years only subbed because I upgraded my pc. Same with psplus I dip in and out when I haven't got anything else to play or something big drops. I do the same with netlflix/Disney plus. If you sub for a month or two a year you have lots of stuff built up.
