    I’m tempted to buy it just because.

      Even if you don’t like the game which will be hard for most. Supporting a developer like this is never a loss.

    I’ve always thought this game looked like shit.

    Doesn’t it only go up to 4 players or something? What a weird limit for such a large game. I guess the devs just weren’t skilled enough to raise it any higher.

        🥱

        Did I criticize the thing you like? Pardon me for not keeping up with updates for shitty games before criticizing them.

        You’re also wrong: “The game can currently be played by multiple people together online in parties of 2 to 4 players.”

          You can play as a group/team of four, but the game can display up to 32 players in the same area simultaneously, which is quite more likely to happen during expeditions.

          Just like why post at all though? This clearly isn’t for you if you’re driven to insult the game on a post about it’s update.

    I’m having a blast just traveling around looking at stuff in VR in this game. After about 25 hours I still have no idea what the actual gameplay is supposed to be.

    Is it just me, or do games always go on massive sales immediately after I purchase it?

        It’s $30 on Xbox right now. I’ve never seen it lower. Also, at least on Xbox, GOTY edition is meaningless. The content is all free updates to the base game.

          Ah, unfortunately I don’t have an Xbox. Been craving Sekiro after playing Nine Sols on PC.

          But good to know that 30 bucks seems to be the lower bound!

    Five or six years ago I used to be able to get 30 fps on low graphics with one or two mods to reduce the load on the GPU. Now I can’t even break 15 FPS without lowering the resolution to unusable levels. What gives? Same setup and everything.
