If the reviews are good, I'll spend the $20 on game pass for a month.

But only if the reviews are very good.

Or some other game caught my attention.

Or I'm replaying Outer Worlds 1

Or I'm still playing Monster Hunter.

Or.... I think I'll just pass on it.

    I bought GamePass just for Outer Worlds because everyone pointing out that's it's from the team that made "New Vegas".

    I played it for a few hours and dropped it.

    It wasn't bad. It just wasn't good. And absolutely not preorder good.

    I bought GamePass just for Outer Worlds because everyone pointing out that’s it’s from the team that made “New Vegas”.

    I did a whole review of this game, and one of the first things I tackled was that it is absolutely not from the New Vegas team in terms of writing or design leadership. I completely blame the marketing for setting wrong expectations by creating that connection.

    It is a good game, but going in wrongly thinking (due to misleading marketing) that it is New Vegas In Space is going to leave you frustrated.
