Wiper Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Yeah, all three are worth playing — though you'll pretty much universally see Dragonfall praised as the highlight, a really brilliant piece of choose-your-own-cyberpunk-adventure; and Returns as the weakest entry, but still enjoyable. Despite being a trilogy they can all be played discretely, so I'd generally recommend playing Dragonfall first — and if you like it, then give the other two a go. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I second and confirm this. @ScouserInExile do start with Dragonfall. It's the Yakuza Zero of this series if you will. These are fantastic games and I've been in love with this setting ever since the SNES game. Fwiw, Returns might not be as good as the other two but well worth playing especially if you remember SNES Shadowrun. There's a bunch of references to that game in Returns.

Strafe Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Naraka Bladepoint review: You cannot invert the aim stick. The default sensitivity on the aim stick is set to warp speed. Unfortunately the default sensitivity is the only sensitivity. I believe the lack of these settings is also the same with KB&M. I couldn’t really focus on anything else so if there’s a good game underneath I do not know. 2/10 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayin Amoh Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 You can invert the camera, but it's hidden well. Right down at the bottom of one of the menus. It's under 'button config' or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quest Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I'm about three wins* into Naraka and rather enjoying it. It's a pretty shoddy port where all the menus are headache inducing, they've failed to remove some prompts from the mobile version to 'tap the + icon' and bafflingly decided to gate the controller options behind the tutorial, but it basically feels like a mad battle royale mash-up of a load of PS2/PS3 action games and that's about all I need right now. *not sure the first one against very obvious bots counts, but y'know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 That time has come where my Game Pass sub has expired. I'm looking at XLG keys and Eneba has some 3 month keys for £4.75 - is there any reason not to use them? If not, I also see CD Keys has them for £5.49: https://www.cdkeys.com/xbox-live/memberships/3-month-xbox-live-gold-membership-card-xbox-one-360 - I assume that one would be okay?

Popular Post Gabe Posted June 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2022 Well to answer my own question, I just went for it with the CD Keys link in my post above and apart from being quite boring to copy & paste all the codes, it went like a dream - another 3 years of GPU for about £67 - madness! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Sniper Elite 5 is quite good fun but as I'm playing it co-op with my brother he more often than not ruins most of my sneaky, perfectly lined up shots by rapid firing at enemies before going full Leeroy Jenkins. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait until your sub runs out before applying gold codes, only then will it convert 1:1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's even crazier to think that I paid about £130 when I did it 3 years ago, so I've renewed for nearly half the price. It's a ridiculous bargain even if I only played and completed one full-price game a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehStu Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Is there a way in Chorus to have the left stick control pitch, and put throttle on right stick instead? If not, muscle memory will make this a pass for me, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehStu Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Sorry, rather than reversing watch each stick does, I need full flight control on left stick and then throttle/secondary flight control on right. Like a flight sim would. I just can't untrain myself out of that. Glad I only streamed it instead of downloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave7g Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 The EA play integration is a war crime on game pass. On PC I was trying to download the Grid legends trial, so I opened Origin, then it said to close Origin and retry, then absolutely nothing happened. Tried to do it on XBOX but you literally cannot find it anywhere. Trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanR Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 my current GPU expires on the 9th. So I've got two 12 month XBLG codes £75 I wait. It expires. I renew. I upgrade to 24 months of GPU for £11, yeah? Per the first post. That's still a thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
