I think we've all learned our collective lesson at this point (or at least, we should have) not to over-hype games, nor to pre-order them.
I'm going to have to temporarily move in with my dad in October potentially for a few months, should be some decent reviews in by then so I'm looking forward to killing time with this game!
Reminder it’s on gamepass!
Thanks. I think I had GP a while back just to play AC: Valhalla, so I won't get a cheeky deal... I'll probably buy it on GOG, as it seems like it's not going to be the sort of game I complete within a month or two, I prefer to 'own' a game than rent it once I'm satisfied it's for me.
It will be a few years before it's on GOG, so it really depends how patient you are. Fallout 4 only appeared on there a week or two ago to give you a frame of reference.
Oh dang. thanks for the headsup. Will it not be on steam day1?
It'll be on Steam day one, yeah.
The people who have "learned" "the lesson" are a loud minority. The vast majority of consumers will put money wherever they feel like it, philosophy be damned.
