I literally don’t purchase games and wait for the GP announcement. Once, it’s in GP, I’ll buy it if it’s leaving GP and I still want it. Purchasing both Fallen Order and Control crossed my mind earlier this year, but I waited for them to come to GP, and sure enough...
Wow, you have great patience and resolve. A true Gaming Buddha.

Yup I wasted money on both greedfall and fallen order, haven't beat either of them, nearly finished fallen order, dunno if I'll finish greedfall, can't help myself with sakes, although I held pretty strong seeing control so cheap a few times.

Does that go for all games or just games you think will come to GP?
 
Now that I have game pass I feel like it's going to be tough for me to buy games not on game pass.

All games really. I don’t know if it’s because I have gotten older, but I’ve reached a point where I just wait and see. It’s definitely easier since MS puts all first party in GP anyway.

I think if you get enough of a back log, you can sort of let those games bide your time while waiting for new ones come to game pass.

I use to get games as soon as they released, but over time, started to accumulate them because work/life got in way and didn't have the time. Still, every once in awhile, I'll still pick up a new game because I'm excited for it. Got Cyberpunk. You can bet that it won't be on Game Pass for some time.
 
Played an hour or two of Grim Fandango yesterday, game is funny but has not aged very well lol. Not sure if I'll keep going, just got to the woods and can't find my way through this tree maze.

Started Control last night and couldn't put it down. Just got to the Maintenance Sector and cleared the control point. This game rules and I'm probably going to go the distance on it.

I’m playing through Control as well. The game does a great job of making you feel powerful and still offering some challenge. Remedy’s stuff is so good and their world building is great.

It's like a modern day Psi-Ops which was one of my favorite games of all time. Still can't believe that series didn't take off
 
Is Greedfall any good?

I do a similar thing for the most part, but I still buy some games...mainly MP games like FIFA and COD. Currently waiting for Squadrons to hit EA Play.

Sitting at a 78 I'd say it's worth a test run at least. Great RPG held back by some technical issues based off the reviews. This is why GamePass exists!

Yeah. Don't care about reviews to be honest. They are about as useful as a c*** flavoured lollipop.

Greedfall is ok. It feel like a 90's Bioware game made by developers who haven't quite come into their own yet. I played it and beat it with little complaint. Be aware there is a lot of fetch quests and backtracking.

Think I'll stay away then.

Thanks.

For some reason I was thinking it was another one of those rogue likes like undermine, etc. I may have to elevate this to my "bedroom xbox" game when I finish CrossCode.

Yea I didn't really get into it, the story and world building and characters are pretty good, too much back tracking and the world can feel a little lifeless and combat is average.
