Chivalry 2
I absolutely love this game. Torn Banner has nailed things with a mix of great gameplay, hilarious sounds, ridiculous weapon pick-ups, and an engaging leveling system. It is 99.9% meant to be played online against other people, as there is no campaign mode. For $40 at launch there is more...
SnowRunner
This game is so damned relaxing, but it is not going to be for everyone. It is never fast, and any attempts at doing things quickly will almost certainly end in disaster. If you’re looking for something that can last you hundreds of hours as you slowly and sometimes surely...
Biomutant
As a $60 title, this one is a hard sell. There is enough content here, but I found it so repetitive that I wouldn’t imagine most would go through it. The story is decent, the gameplay can be quite fun at times, and supporting smaller developers is never bad if...
If you have the patience for it this can be a solid solo experience. It will test you though as many areas can take 20 or 30 minutes to clear on the higher difficulties where you can die in a second or two of attacks if you get caught off-guard....
There is so much more I could talk about, but if you’re willing to put in the time then going in spoiler-free is the way to go. There is great fun to be had in this game if you are patient enough. The story is good, most of the time...
Zombie Army 4 is a game I never gave a chance before Game Pass, and it really is a perfect game for the service. The base campaign is long and the potential to get you to purchase the season pass DLC means it should help the developers earn quite a...
Outriders
Outriders has some of the most enjoyable gameplay I can remember in quite some time. If you’re reading or watching this a few months down the line then hopefully the issues with aiming sensitivity have been worked out, because once that is fixed this will be one of the better...
Curse of the Dead Gods is a solid title for fans of rogue-likes and dungeon crawlers. An excellent progression system is tied to a damned fun combat system. Retailing for only $20 US it is easy to recommend, and as it is a Focus Home Interactive game I wouldn’t be...
Desperados III
At full price I would say make sure you know exactly what this game is before buying it. It’s excellent, but this genre isn’t going to be for everyone. On Game Pass though this one is a no-brainer to give a try. The install size isn’t huge, but the amount...
Halo: The Master Chief Collection is one of my favorite videogames of all time. It cannot be stated just how incredible the work that 343 Industries and multiple other studios have put into it over the past 5+ years to get it here. Any future compilation of titles should look...
Monster Train
Monster Train is an excellent title that shamelessly apes from my previous favorite in the genre: Slay the Spire. If you liked the Game Pass title at all, then know that this one is even better in every single facet. It features some of the best diversity in the genre...
My final conclusion. I think Immortals is more fun than Breath of the Wild. There I said it! No taking it back now. It is funny, a blast to play, beautiful, and has some of the best music in any video game. I do not understand why Ubisoft released it...
