Deathloop

Xbox exclusive?

If you win you got to wait a year before they deliver it to you…

Xbox exclusive?

Yeah, but Sony has the marketing rights.

That user score though

That user score though

Not reliable. TLOU Part I has a 5.9 user score and we know how great that game is.

And 3 first time reviews

 

[DriedMangoes]

Shame both got bombed for weird reasons at least in the user ratings lol.

This is why I don't put that much worth in the user critics anymore. Too many bots.

 

[D-V-ANT]

have this downloaded but haven't played it yet.

User reviews never mean anything on metacritic, critic reviews are generally reliable for video games imo.

Played a couple hours, it's cool I'm liking the whole idea behind the deathloop, gameplay great, I'm trying the 120fps mode it's smooth as hell.

Microsoft reduced the resolution and fps of the PS5 version.

I gave it a try, couldn't really get into it. You're exploring the same 4 areas pretty much to get clues and try to assassin all 8 visionaries to break the loop?

I hope to try it this weekend. So I can't answer your question!

That's the game in a nutshell. Add in all the powers and multiple ways to carry out the assasinations and that's the gist of the game. Loved it last year and now replaying it for the achievements. And the expanded ending.

Fixed

Tried it out this morning and it’s interesting enough that I will keep playing for now. The fan seems to run quite loud while playing this one though. I’m currently playing in the ray tracing mode. Maybe it’s different in the other render modes?

Maybe some dust? I started to notice my fab wills playing, went in there with a air can and no more noise

I’m actually a little concerned about this. I clean it out pretty regularly, but even though I was very thorough with it, I don’t think I was able to get all the residual out after the apartment fire last year. It’s normally pretty quiet though, but the fan did kick in quite loud while playing this.

If it’s out of warranty you may want to open it up and give it a deep cleaning. But maybe contact ms to see if they could do anything to resolve it, say “the fan just keeps getting louder…and you….don’t know why”

Raytracing is more graphics intensive so that makes sense.

Games opened up now. Went to one area and got into a big gun fight so the boss nuked the entire place.

Not really “graphics” intensive more so gpu and cpu resource hog

 

[starseeker]

I was moderately interested in the game until the magic word "Roguelike"

 

[The Wolf King]

I wouldn't put it in that category.

Thought that's what it means.

Requires more processing by the GPU

I'm semi playing it, but not in love with it or anything. Not sure if it'll hold my attention. Not too keen on the mechanics.

 

[The Wolf King]

Can only unlock new outfits in the MP mode? Bit lame.

 

[The Wolf King]

Loop completed. I'm finding that like Hitman I'm now going back and messing around to try new ways to kill the targets thanks to the achievements based on different types of kills.

Really fun game, had 1 crash but other than that no tech issues and it looks great.
