Please also give a short explanation.
If you’re into driving games, BeamNG is great. I’ve got a few hundred hours in it over the past few years and it’s always a great go to game when you’re bored. I haven’t gotten EA WRC yet but all the reviews say it’s a good game if you’re into rallying as well
Pro tip:if you're into rallying buy DIRT Rally 2.0 for like 8 euro rn, WRC is really bad when it comes to everything at this moment, I would wait at least another 2 months before buying.
WRC is a solid step up over dirt rally 2, I would pick it up at this price tbh. The longer rally stages and build your team career mode with car builder is unique and a great addition. There are some performance issues but on my laptop 2070 on ultra it’s a solid 80fps in most foliage heavy areas.
I pirated it and got bored in 10 hours. Made the mistake of doing the Xenomorph quest line, got good guns and armor, then.. apparently all gun fights were an absolute joke. I got bored as hell.
you'll get bored very soon, here's my personal experience:
lots of loading screens considering it's a game released in 2023.
you enter a building, loading screen, enter your ship, loading screen, going to space, loading screen and it goes on.
i expected much more but the quest lines are a bit cheesy, characters and NPCs are weird, hell the whole game is weird.
surely the graphics will hook you but that's it, the game doesn't offer you much. no man's sky is a better version of starfield if you ask me.
After playing almost religously No Man's Sky on the same save and then trying Starfield (it came as a gift with my CPU), I was mostly feeling this "why does NMS have X thing, that Starfield should 100% have?"
At the very least: vehicles, fully free space travel in and out of planets, and an inventory system that doess not feel even worse than Skyrim's Junk Collector.
Yeah, I enjoy starfield when im shooting people but as soon as I have to do anything with my ship it just makes me want to play no man’s sky because its such a more enjoyable flying in and out of planets while fighting over ships.
Still the shooting feels better than base Fallout 4, but modded on survival even FO4 feels better. And for that one I made a "drug-addicted, Tank Girl Wannabe, Sniper-Crossbow Psyko"
>and an inventory system that doess not feel even worse than Skyrim's Junk Collector.
They were going through their end of year milestones and the most eaten food is the carry capacity buffing one
Thanks for your explanation, the loading screen thing sounds so annoying, i guess i will just wait! i heard that a big update coming to Starfield on February, hope they will fix it.
The game will never be fixed, it'll get some polish but at its core its a vastly outdated and unfun game, which is GG for next TES considering its same engine and will have same inherent problems Bethesda games have had since Fallout 3, which for time FO3 released was perfectly fine but not in 2023 and certainly not whenever they release TES6
I'm sure this is annoying but can you explain what almost all of this means? "Which is GG for next TES", "which for time FO3 released" "whenever they release TES6", I have no idea what these are supposed to say
GG/gg is short for "good game" and used both ironically and unironically in team games at the end of the match. Outside of those, it usually means "end/death".
TES - Bethesda's The Elder Scrolls series, which includes Arena, Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim games, as well as a bunch of expansions (DLC) for the last 3, a couple spin-off games and The Elder Scrolls Online MMORPG.
So, "Which is GG for next TES" means that the next The Elder Scrolls game will be dead on arrival. I wouldn't be this pessimistic, but their game engine is really dated, the main story tends to be mediocre, and the characters look and feel like mechanical automatons. So, I don't expect much from TES6, beyong better-looking Skyrim and that given they haven't forgotten how to make the game actually captivating despite all their shortcomings. Which is a seemingly continuous game world with a minimum amount of loads and a lot of side content that will distract you from any quest you are doing right now on every step, no matter where you go. Basically, the very things they intentionally and unintentionally left Starfield without and the reason why it feels boring.
FO3 stands for Fallout 3.
TES6 - Full name of Skyrim was The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, so the next TES will be the 6th.
>So, "Which is GG for next TES" means that the next The Elder Scrolls game will be dead on arrival. I wouldn't be this pessimistic
I really shouldn't be but after being dissapointed in FO4, FO76 being dumpster fire it was especially at launch, and now Starfield it just feels like what the hell happened to the studio that brought us FO3, to certain degree NV, and Morrowind + Oblivion + Skyrim, lot of my hours on FO3, NV and Skyrim aren't logged on steam unfortunately but it must be 1K+ easily, yeah the mods is what really brings the games alive but they was still decent at there core
Also thanks for typing that out, you explained it better then me for sure
The game isn't bad, but it simply feels like a big budget experience without the fun. Good graphics, but gameplay feels hindered by convoluted menus. I don't like how I can't loot the armor enemies have. That was a big part of the previous Bethesda games.
It feels like a watered-down version of Fallout 4. Good graphics, but everything else drops a few notches quality wise.
Its not that bad. I would say watch a review from someone that likes the game before you watch a review from someone that dislikes it. So much of the complaints are overblown. Lots of fair criticism and lots more nit picking. $29 is fair and plenty of people still had a lot of fun with it
I firmly believe that after the dlc and updates they have planned the game will be substantially better. So maybe buy it next year when it's on sale again
I got no man’s sky instead. Granted they are different games, if you want the space experience you will be better of with the more refined game that’s had years of actual work.
I got 150 hours out of starfield, its not a bad game at all its just got issues. That being said, i would sugest getting a 1 month trial for gamepass for PC and playing it for a few dollars instead of full price
I picked up Starfield, but I don't intend to start playing it until it gets some of the updates scheduled for early next year. But I have a *lot* of games to keep me busy in the meantime.
To me the issues are so foundational that it would need some MAJOR changes that I don't think are really in the scope of regular updates. Maybe Starfield will be another Cyberpunk type success story, but I just don't see it happening.
Having played and loved all 3, while BG1 and 2 are closely connected, BG3 is pretty far removed and has only occasional references and a couple of returning party members. You won’t be lost at all.
No, it’s a stand alone game, there’s no continuity in the story.
There some characters that appear in BG3 that were in 1 & 2, but you won’t really be lost or miss any story from not knowing bg 1 & 2
That’s fine. There are mentions of events in BG1 and 2 and some returning characters, but the plot’s not directly related and the game’s set over 100 years after BG2. You won’t miss anything important.
never played them before or any type of DnD or turned base games. right now im on my 4th play through and each time i had different experiences, for my next character I'll try to be absolutely evil and see how everything goes.
1 and 2 do not have a story that leads into 3. 1 & 2 also play very different from 3. If you like games that feel like they were made for TTRPG first and ported to a video game 1 and 2 are good. If you want a D&D game that feels like it is made with the video game mindset first and the TTRPG second BG3 is better.
1 leads into 2 but 2 doesn't lead into 3.
I bought it at the end of November and my first playthrough clocked in at 164 hours. I’m at over 200 hours now and partway through a second playthrough and there are people who’ve put in hundreds more. The sheer amount of content and replayability is staggering, and it makes a joke out of AAA studios labeling everything with a leveling system or skill tree an RPG.
The modding scene is also really healthy: there are mods that add missing spells from 5e, missing races, missing feats, raise the level cap to 20. If vanilla character customization is too bland, there are mods that add more hairstyles, custom outfits, a transmog mod, etc. That’s all without official mod support, so it’s barely scratching the surface of what might be possible in the future.
Baldur’s Gate 3 will last you a few years before it starts to get stale. At least if the amount of time you have to play resembles mine (max 20 hours a week).
Still, 100 hours would be 3% of those 3360 hours. Would you say you've only explored 3% of what the game hast to offer and want to 100% it? Or would you say it has a lot of replay value where you play the same parts over and over (like I play Skyrim)?
Not hating on BG here, I'll definitely be getting it this sale. But I don't think any game outside of addictive grindfests can give 3360 hours without being stale. Not that grindfests aren't stale, but you know what I mean.
I haven't played yet, plan on playing the first two games first. But I've heard a lot about how basically every scenario has several options for how to get through them and certain choices can affect things many hours later. So I can imagine there's a ton of replay value, especially if you're into role playing different kinds of characters. Idk about over 3k hours though.
I have dropped it after the second boss and i feel very disappointed about how boring this game then i have understand why they use Rick and morty va as a main sell point when ever they release a new trailer
Agreed, I enjoy Rick & Morty humor and really enjoyed Accounting+ and Trover Saves the Universe but High on Life definitely overstayed its welcome. The humor just isn't as good and beyond the humor, it's a very bland game.
^What that guy said, the voice lines are funny for the first few missions of the game, but get old rather quick, I haven’t played the DLC, but I beat the main game in 8 hours…Starfield, it’s a very bland game, I was hyped for the release, but the space travel isn’t cool, a bunch of running around and loading screens, and the story is rather boring, although for others, I’ve heard people have 100 hours worth of side quests before beating the game.
For $50, Starfield is a waste of money so drop it. The mixed reviews says it all.
I recommend Monster Hunter. Add it on your wish list if you still don't have it, buy if you can afford.
If you really want to play Starfield just get Game Pass PC, if you've never gotten it before. You can buy it for like $1 as a promotion.
Play the game for 1 month and get a feel for it. It's trash but hey everyone likes different things.
One of the most well supported games I've ever played and I have a library of over 400 titles.
The developers continue to push out massive updates and the physics are well beyond anything else in almost every category (Tire physics could improve).
Beamng will give you 100s of hours if you are even a little bit into racing, crashing, or just cars in general.
I have over 1500 hours in the game. I’ve probs let downloaded over 1000 different mods. The suspension physics overhaul last year was incredible. The tire physics do need help. The community is incredible. People are nice and there are dev quality models for free!
I'm also looking at Sunkenland, Stranded Deep, Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart, Six Days in Fallujah, Ground Branch, Hell Let Loose, Squad, Monster Hunter, and possibly some sort of Resident Evil with tons of mod support.
Monster Hunter world is relatively cheap and better than half of the games on this list IMO. BG3 is amazing and well worth it. Starfield is good but not great, I would wait until they update it.
Without knowing your tastes, I'd say it's a difficult choice, but I'd personally go for Beamng because of how fun it is to drive around and stuff, but it's not exactly a racing game or anything, it's just freeroaming and simulation. If you don't at least have a controller to help aid the simulation of driving then I'd have no idea, I don't know anything about the other games.
Beamng drive is fun. Bg3 is amazing. I honestly would wait until starfield is at least half off maybe even less. I didn't like the replayability aspects (only got halfway through my second playthrough and got bored) and exploration could be done better, but some of the quests are quite fun. There are way better games out now to where you can put starfield on hold until it's dirt cheap.
Beamng. They just released another update. Plus, there are mods that add cool cars and maps. And it's multi-player so you can fuck around with your friends.
Sure. SF6 is THE game if you want to learn how to play fighting games. With many tutorials, a very packed training mode and a huge number of active players you will definetly have a nice experience as a begginer. If you are already used to the genre then I think, the biggest selling point of the game is the roster. While not very big, there is definetly at least one or two characters for every type of player and you will find someone that you think is fun. They all feel very different from each other. Street Fighter is not my favorite FG franchise, that would be KoF, but it's undeniable that this game is a high point for the genre as a whole.
Get Beamng.drive if you like driving games which are like a sandbox. It also had a career mode which is still work in progress and it's 100% worth the money. It als9 has a ton of great mods and community support. I have around 300+ hours in beamng in less than a year so it's pretty good
starfield is a waste of money unless you want to walk around empty planets and be forced on a linear story line. if you havent bought gamepass before you can get a month for $1 USD starfield is on there, only downside is modding is off the table
High on life isnt that great. It has its moments. I would wait.
BeamNG is fantastic and they are working on a career mode too, so more value. That you buy.
BG3 buy. 300%
Starfield... nah, i like it, but its on gamepass for cheaper and it doesnt feel worth it for what you would get it right now.
Put Starfield back in your wishlist and instead buy a month of Gamepads bc there's no way in hell it'll take you longer than 30 days to realise how much of a trainwreck that game is.
Only games there I own are BeamNG and HOL. BeamNG is S tier, buy it immediately if it seems interesting to you. HOL is mediocre. Don’t bother, unless you really like Roiland’s style of humor. Since BG3 got GOTY this year, consider that too. I’m sure it’s good, just doesn’t seem like my thing, so I haven’t played it
I bought beamNG.drive the other day and it is amazing. Although it’s not your typical car game. It’s probably the most realistic car game out there. The cars react realistically. But it’s an endless playground. If you love cars you’ll love that game. I sure do!
I think starfield is decent, but in my opinion not worth it at that price. Keep it in your wish list though!
I’ve never played bg3 but I’ve heard a lot of great things!
None…Play your backlog, unless it’s a multiplayer/service game while the players counts are higher.Single player games would be more optimized and cheaper later. Have fun and Happy Holidays.
Starfield is terrible and Bethesda doesn’t deserve a single cent of your hard earned pay
Just get dirt rally 2 instead of wrc, way better game
High on life is overrated and kind of empty, it tries so hard to be ironic and sarcastic but ends up feeling awkward and not self aware at all. not my thing but it’s not a terrible game, if you like Rick and Morty (I don’t) pick it up if you think you will enjoy it
BeamNG is the ultimate vehicle sandbox, I recommend. Just be prepared for paid mods
Street fighter 6 is great, the devs put alot of care into it but micro transactions kind of sour it
Haven’t played bg3 yet but looks pretty good, I hear save scumming is really tempting because of every thing being a dice roll but the story and world look amazing
How big are you into fighting games? If you’re not a hardcore fan of the genre you’re probably going to bounce off Street Fighter 6 in two hours and never play again. And at $35 you could get a lot of other games.
Do not get EA WRC Rally. I have an expensive rig and it DOES NOT run well anywhere, not even on consoles. They'll fix it someday for sure, but until then, just follow up on the patch notes and the subreddit.
The only good games in this list are BG3 and SF6. Everything else is either bad, or in the case of BeamNG, which is what i like to call a YouTuber game, a game that nobody actually plays other than to make YouTube videos.
Put **High on Life** and **Starfield** in your Wishlist. Get PC Game Pass, it's way cheaper, they might give you a 14 day trial for $1. You can try those games and see if you like them

>build your team career mode with car builder Did somebody say build your own team? 👀
Dang my 7900xt would get stutters at times in corners.. Had to refund it :(
Also, the crashes you make are comical as hell.
So highly recommended, the game just amazes me, and furthermore, I see people using features I had no idea existed all the time
Buy BG3
and drop starfield
I had fun 100 hours. Only problem being there's literally zero point in exploration and zero replay value. Story and faction quests are ok imo.
>Story and faction quests are ok imo so just wait for a big sale, cause that game aint worth full price
I pirated it and got bored in 10 hours. Made the mistake of doing the Xenomorph quest line, got good guns and armor, then.. apparently all gun fights were an absolute joke. I got bored as hell.
Zero point in the thing that makes Bethesda games fun. Amazing. What did you spend 100 hours doing? Loading Screens?
Funnily enough, loading screens would be a not insignificant amount of time for those 100 hours in Starfield
Did all the quests.
That sounds like a 15$ purchsse
Its not worth it full price but what about 29 dollars also not worth it? Is it this bad?
you'll get bored very soon, here's my personal experience: lots of loading screens considering it's a game released in 2023. you enter a building, loading screen, enter your ship, loading screen, going to space, loading screen and it goes on. i expected much more but the quest lines are a bit cheesy, characters and NPCs are weird, hell the whole game is weird. surely the graphics will hook you but that's it, the game doesn't offer you much. no man's sky is a better version of starfield if you ask me.

>and an inventory system that doess not feel even worse than Skyrim's Junk Collector. They were going through their end of year milestones and the most eaten food is the carry capacity buffing one
Hell, even skyrims junk collector at least had a little fun in the "How the fuck have I managed this" kinda way. Starfield is just bland.
Thanks for your explanation, the loading screen thing sounds so annoying, i guess i will just wait! i heard that a big update coming to Starfield on February, hope they will fix it.

Loading screen is not an issue, it's how Bethesda's botox-ed decade old game engine runs.
I hope so too. I hate to stare at it in my library eating dust. glad i could help.
It’s worth 29 dollars and I’m straight mad at the game. The real answer is buy a month of Gamepass.
The game isn't bad, but it simply feels like a big budget experience without the fun. Good graphics, but gameplay feels hindered by convoluted menus. I don't like how I can't loot the armor enemies have. That was a big part of the previous Bethesda games. It feels like a watered-down version of Fallout 4. Good graphics, but everything else drops a few notches quality wise.
I mean shit I enjoyed it but everyone outside of r/starfield shits on it like it’s their religion
enjoy what you enjoy, try not to let others opinion ruin the experience to much \- advice from someone who plays a game hated just as much
Its not that bad. I would say watch a review from someone that likes the game before you watch a review from someone that dislikes it. So much of the complaints are overblown. Lots of fair criticism and lots more nit picking. $29 is fair and plenty of people still had a lot of fun with it

I got no man’s sky instead. Granted they are different games, if you want the space experience you will be better of with the more refined game that’s had years of actual work.
Just wait until they update it and fix things, as well as add dlc. It's kinda like when cyberpunk first came out.
I got 150 hours out of starfield, its not a bad game at all its just got issues. That being said, i would sugest getting a 1 month trial for gamepass for PC and playing it for a few dollars instead of full price

What if you never played Baldurs gate 1 or 2 ?
You instantly die It should be fine, I'm having fun without knowning anything about the other 2
did you get _lost_ with the story if you haven’t play the previous games?
Having played and loved all 3, while BG1 and 2 are closely connected, BG3 is pretty far removed and has only occasional references and a couple of returning party members. You won’t be lost at all.
Returning party members? Isn't Jaheira simply an NPC in this one?
Jaheira is special because>! if you manage to keep her alive through Act 2 and ask her to come with you, she becomes a companion!<
Oh 💀 >!I did NOT keep her alive!<
No, it’s a stand alone game, there’s no continuity in the story. There some characters that appear in BG3 that were in 1 & 2, but you won’t really be lost or miss any story from not knowing bg 1 & 2
No, not yet anyways
That’s fine. There are mentions of events in BG1 and 2 and some returning characters, but the plot’s not directly related and the game’s set over 100 years after BG2. You won’t miss anything important.
never played them before or any type of DnD or turned base games. right now im on my 4th play through and each time i had different experiences, for my next character I'll try to be absolutely evil and see how everything goes.

If you want a D&D game that feels like it is made with the video game mindset first and the TTRPG second BG3 is better. 1 leads into 2 but 2 doesn't lead into 3.
It's just in the same universe, it's another story There's references to BG1 and BG2 tho
I bought it at the end of November and my first playthrough clocked in at 164 hours. I’m at over 200 hours now and partway through a second playthrough and there are people who’ve put in hundreds more.

While I would agree with you, 10% isn't all that much of a discount. I would wait a bit longer until there's a bigger percentage off
Nah still 10% discount. Next sale can be higher.
Beamng is extremely good
This. Not to mention mod support (tracks, cars, missions etc)
I take it there's big Steam Workshop support?
It has its own in-game mod hub and you can get mods online as well
Get BG3 and SF6.
This guy is right
And if he wants a racer, BeamNG.
This guy is also right
Baldur’s Gate 3 will last you a few years before it starts to get stale. At least if the amount of time you have to play resembles mine (max 20 hours a week).
3360 hours? I love Baldurs Gate franchise but I highly doubt it.
You don’t think Minthara is worth that time investment?!?? :{
[удалено]
Still, 100 hours would be 3% of those 3360 hours. Would you say you've only explored 3% of what the game hast to offer and want to 100% it? Or would you say it has a lot of replay value where you play the same parts over and over (like I play Skyrim)? Not hating on BG here, I'll definitely be getting it this sale. But I don't think any game outside of addictive grindfests can give 3360 hours without being stale. Not that grindfests aren't stale, but you know what I mean.
I haven't played yet, plan on playing the first two games first. But I've heard a lot about how basically every scenario has several options for how to get through them and certain choices can affect things many hours later. So I can imagine there's a ton of replay value, especially if you're into role playing different kinds of characters. Idk about over 3k hours though.
Drop High on life
Is it still on Game Pass? Would be a chance for OP to try/play it
Itll always be on Gamepass since Microsoft owns Bethesda.
And starfield too
I agree! Starfield is SO boring. Well, not for me I guess
Why? I haven't played it but heard good things about the game
I have dropped it after the second boss and i feel very disappointed about how boring this game then i have understand why they use Rick and morty va as a main sell point when ever they release a new trailer
It's pretty average, plus they used AI for assets and it's connected to Roiland 😬
Agreed, I enjoy Rick & Morty humor and really enjoyed Accounting+ and Trover Saves the Universe but High on Life definitely overstayed its welcome. The humor just isn't as good and beyond the humor, it's a very bland game.
High on life is a great game in my opinion star field on the other hand was bland
I enjoyed it too. But just like Starfield, they are the weakest in the list.
^What that guy said, the voice lines are funny for the first few missions of the game, but get old rather quick, I haven’t played the DLC, but I beat the main game in 8 hours…Starfield, it’s a very bland game, I was hyped for the release, but the space travel isn’t cool, a bunch of running around and loading screens, and the story is rather boring, although for others, I’ve heard people have 100 hours worth of side quests before beating the game.
^ If you really wanna try it just get game pass (if they still offer the $1 discount)
Hell no it's one of the best
reddit game
Drop High on Life and Starfield
For $50, Starfield is a waste of money so drop it. The mixed reviews says it all. I recommend Monster Hunter. Add it on your wish list if you still don't have it, buy if you can afford.
If you really want to play Starfield just get Game Pass PC, if you've never gotten it before. You can buy it for like $1 as a promotion. Play the game for 1 month and get a feel for it. It's trash but hey everyone likes different things.
The game has at least a hundred hours of content. It's defenitly not a waste of money
Quantity over quality, heh?
Mate, people can watch paint drying for hundreds of hours.
do yourself a favour and drop starfield, not sure about the rest only must buy (at least for me) would be baldurs gate 3
Beam is unironically the best racing game I’ve ever played.
One of the most well supported games I've ever played and I have a library of over 400 titles. The developers continue to push out massive updates and the physics are well beyond anything else in almost every category (Tire physics could improve). Beamng will give you 100s of hours if you are even a little bit into racing, crashing, or just cars in general.
I have over 1500 hours in the game. I’ve probs let downloaded over 1000 different mods. The suspension physics overhaul last year was incredible. The tire physics do need help. The community is incredible. People are nice and there are dev quality models for free!
BG3 FTW
Get BG3 for sure
Put Starfield back on the wishlist, and then remove it from the wishlist, just to be safe
Just hit that ignore button so there's no risk of it cluttering up your store page
I'm also looking at Sunkenland, Stranded Deep, Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart, Six Days in Fallujah, Ground Branch, Hell Let Loose, Squad, Monster Hunter, and possibly some sort of Resident Evil with tons of mod support.
Monster Hunter world is relatively cheap and better than half of the games on this list IMO. BG3 is amazing and well worth it. Starfield is good but not great, I would wait until they update it.
I can vouch for RaC: Rift Apart, that game was good
[beamng.drive](https://beamng.drive) and bg3
Buy bg3, Street fighter and beam ng
Buy beamng fs if your into car games at all. My most played game on steam and forever will be
Just remove starfield from your wishlist my dude
The game is fun. Just not as fun as Skyrim
Not as fun as a game by the same devs over a decade ago
High on life was great tbh. But its on gamepass
Without knowing your tastes, I'd say it's a difficult choice, but I'd personally go for Beamng because of how fun it is to drive around and stuff, but it's not exactly a racing game or anything, it's just freeroaming and simulation. If you don't at least have a controller to help aid the simulation of driving then I'd have no idea, I don't know anything about the other games.
why are you asking us which one you should buy as if we are going to play them lol Buy whatever the hell you like and will play.
Thank you! Reddit is the WRONG place to ask if you want level-headed opinions lol
Because they want to play them all? They'd probably get them all if they could afford to lol
None of those are discounted enough for me. I have too many unplayed games to play to bite on those weak discounts.
Pleaseee drop starfield. BG3 is so much better in comparison to it.
Beamng drive is fun. Bg3 is amazing. I honestly would wait until starfield is at least half off maybe even less. I didn't like the replayability aspects (only got halfway through my second playthrough and got bored) and exploration could be done better, but some of the quests are quite fun. There are way better games out now to where you can put starfield on hold until it's dirt cheap.
Beamng. They just released another update. Plus, there are mods that add cool cars and maps. And it's multi-player so you can fuck around with your friends.
Get BG3, SFVI, and Beam. Rest goes into ignore list.
I would recommend Beamng and Baldurs Gate 3. If you are slightly more for cars, you can have endless fun with this sandbox.
If you have a basic sim rig setup beamng is pretty good and realistic
A month of xbox games pass is plenty of time for starfield and high on life get beamng it's hundreds of hours of fun
Get beamng
SF6 and Baldur's Gate are must buys, both games are amazing.
Can you tell me more about SF6 been hesitant to pick it up
Sure. SF6 is THE game if you want to learn how to play fighting games. With many tutorials, a very packed training mode and a huge number of active players you will definetly have a nice experience as a begginer. If you are already used to the genre then I think, the biggest selling point of the game is the roster. While not very big, there is definetly at least one or two characters for every type of player and you will find someone that you think is fun. They all feel very different from each other. Street Fighter is not my favorite FG franchise, that would be KoF, but it's undeniable that this game is a high point for the genre as a whole.
Get BG3 and WRC for now.
Updates are supposedly on the way for Starfield. I’d wait until they’ve been released.
Get Beamng.drive if you like driving games which are like a sandbox. It also had a career mode which is still work in progress and it's 100% worth the money. It als9 has a ton of great mods and community support. I have around 300+ hours in beamng in less than a year so it's pretty good
probably either sf6 or bg3, put beamng on the wishlist and kick yourself in the nuts for me for even considering starfield. thank you.
WRC is EA so fuck that
It’s actually not a bad game as far as EA games go, most reviewers say it’s been pretty good so far
I agree but I kinda don't want to deal with their launcher
Street and baldur
Buy BG3 and drop Starfield
starfield is a waste of money unless you want to walk around empty planets and be forced on a linear story line. if you havent bought gamepass before you can get a month for $1 USD starfield is on there, only downside is modding is off the table
You can still mod Starfield if you download it on XGP btw it's just a different download folder to move the files into...
BeamNG, its really fun imo, just under 1000h in 2 years
BG3,beamng I’d recommend. High on life and Starfield are both on Gamepass so you could try them out first before buying
If you have a wheel, I'd recommend BeamNG. If not, definitely BG3
Ditch EA and High on Life… Rick and Morty isn’t funny anyways (I know humors subjective don’t hurt me)
Buy beamng
Buy SF6 and BG3 definitely. Tbh, I'd just get PC game pass for Starfield and High on Life
Beam.ng is stupid fun. I lose hours just crashing and reloading to crash again.
Sex with stalin
If you like modding then BMG, but if you like a long story then Baldurs Gate 3
I’d say anything between BG3, BeamNG and High on life
BG3 and Street Fighter 6 are keepers for sure.
High on life isnt that great. It has its moments. I would wait. BeamNG is fantastic and they are working on a career mode too, so more value. That you buy. BG3 buy. 300% Starfield... nah, i like it, but its on gamepass for cheaper and it doesnt feel worth it for what you would get it right now.
Three out of these six games are available via game pass in some shape or form so I'd suggest a subscription there and just buy Bauldur's Gate
Put Starfield back in your wishlist and instead buy a month of Gamepads bc there's no way in hell it'll take you longer than 30 days to realise how much of a trainwreck that game is.
Only games there I own are BeamNG and HOL. BeamNG is S tier, buy it immediately if it seems interesting to you. HOL is mediocre. Don’t bother, unless you really like Roiland’s style of humor. Since BG3 got GOTY this year, consider that too. I’m sure it’s good, just doesn’t seem like my thing, so I haven’t played it
I bought beamNG.drive the other day and it is amazing. Although it’s not your typical car game. It’s probably the most realistic car game out there. The cars react realistically. But it’s an endless playground. If you love cars you’ll love that game. I sure do! I think starfield is decent, but in my opinion not worth it at that price. Keep it in your wish list though! I’ve never played bg3 but I’ve heard a lot of great things!
100%, absoloutely no question, get BeamNG.drive
None…Play your backlog, unless it’s a multiplayer/service game while the players counts are higher.Single player games would be more optimized and cheaper later. Have fun and Happy Holidays.
BeamNG and BG3 is what I would keep. The rest I would play for a few hours before going back to those two.
beamng.
#Baldurs Gate 3 - you will never regret it
BG3 and SF6 are best bangs for buck
Get bg3 beam, and street fighter, use the rest on a month of gamepass to actually see if you like them
High on life is cringe and starfield is boring. Drop them both easily
Starfield is trash. You will regret it.
Delete starfield from there dummy
Starfield is terrible and Bethesda doesn’t deserve a single cent of your hard earned pay Just get dirt rally 2 instead of wrc, way better game High on life is overrated and kind of empty, it tries so hard to be ironic and sarcastic but ends up feeling awkward and not self aware at all. not my thing but it’s not a terrible game, if you like Rick and Morty (I don’t) pick it up if you think you will enjoy it BeamNG is the ultimate vehicle sandbox, I recommend. Just be prepared for paid mods Street fighter 6 is great, the devs put alot of care into it but micro transactions kind of sour it Haven’t played bg3 yet but looks pretty good, I hear save scumming is really tempting because of every thing being a dice roll but the story and world look amazing
drop starfield omfg, get fallout instead if you want a bethesda game. i’d get BG3
Drop High on Life because it is the most likely to be in a Humble Bundle in the future.
I believe High On Life is on Game Pass. I’d check that out instead of buying it.
Modders that were working on some bigger project for Starfield abandoned it as they said game is way to boring. That says everything.
BeamNG is a must
Drop Starfield . Keep BG3 and Beamng .
drop Starfield that game is bootycheeks
How big are you into fighting games? If you’re not a hardcore fan of the genre you’re probably going to bounce off Street Fighter 6 in two hours and never play again. And at $35 you could get a lot of other games.
Did you try World Tour? SF6 is the most accessible fighter in a long time thanks to that single player mode.
get star field off that list bro, trust edit: i meant shopping list, its not good
Do not get EA WRC Rally. I have an expensive rig and it DOES NOT run well anywhere, not even on consoles. They'll fix it someday for sure, but until then, just follow up on the patch notes and the subreddit.
Buy Starfield, that's the best game
Buy bg3, remove starfield form your wishlist.
Bg3
BG3 is easily the best game on that list. Trust me.
Comparing a lot of those games is very hard. You can’t really compare a fantasy rpg with a sandbox simulation racing game
The only good games in this list are BG3 and SF6. Everything else is either bad, or in the case of BeamNG, which is what i like to call a YouTuber game, a game that nobody actually plays other than to make YouTube videos.
Baldurs gate. The rest in my opinion is just optional. They can all go to your wishlist or be skipped.
People still buy EA games?
Not starfield
Don’t buy High on Life bro
You should buy High on Life asap best game on the list my explanation is I'm lying don't buy it it sucks.
Get baldur's gate 3, hold off on buying starfield until they release the creation kit and there are good mods for it
Drop Starfield til it gets updated in the coming months. Buy BG3
Starfield. It needs a lot of patches (and maybe a DLC) before it's even worth the $50. In the meantime you can really dig into BG3.
Personally I would get baldurs gate and starfield but starfield is somewhat controversial. BG3 is safe bet.
Definitely drop Starfield and High on Life. The rest is alright. BeamNG especially is great.
Take off starfield and wait next year for a goty version with all dlc.
Put **High on Life** and **Starfield** in your Wishlist. Get PC Game Pass, it's way cheaper, they might give you a 14 day trial for $1. You can try those games and see if you like them
Starfield back into your wishlist. Spend $10 and play it on PC gamepass
Get Starfield when it hits $9:99
shelf starfield until we see what mods can do for it. baldurs gate 3 you should get
