I think this is in the list of games I’ve pirated but not installed. How high in my backlog priority should it be? Would it join the games I have pirated but later purchased?
It pulled me in. Completely. The world building is genius. The music is amazing. The weirdness is everywhere.
The gameplay is tedious, repetitive and kinda boring. But as you connect more and more places, you get more tools and help from others, tedious journeys become short trips and suddenly everything feels closer to each other.
Overcoming hardship to connect the world again never felt so satisfying.
It coming to Xbox brings joy to my life.
It’s worth trying out just for the weirdness of it all.
I coincidentally played it during covid lockdown and the thematic connections to the moment were really special. Bird flu is coming, maybe wait for the next pandemic lockdowns and try it then?
Praying for another global pandemic to really cement in the work-from-home paradigm
