I was under the impression that Deathloop was ass

so its not and i should check it out?

Sony doing pretty well with Deathloop, Returnal and Ratchet against Microsoft's only franchise games. Imagine if GT, GoW and Horizon weren't delayed.

I started it but am still at the beginning. I'm a fukking huge Arkane fan so I'm going to probably enjoy it. The biggest criticism I read about is the AI being dumb as rocks. Like, a lot of what I see people saying is "Prey and Dishonored are better". And that's probably true (I love both those games as well). So yea, some of the Deathloop acclaim could be a byproduct of their previous work being criminally overlooked. That Scorsese/Denzel consolation Oscar effect, if you will. I believe they released a patch to address some of the AI stuff though.

Awards, game sales and console sales now matter to Xbots

Before it was all” who cares, I just want to play games” now they’re keeping tallies of awards their games are winning.

This is repudiating the notion of there being nothing noteworthy to play on Game Pass. Which I shouldn't even try to dignify with a response but it is what it is. 33% of this year's most decorated games are either on GP, published by Microsoft or a combination of the two. You calling us "xbots" when most of us game on multiple platforms is . Stop yourself.
