Topic is very simple: There are many western games coming nowadays that are plain unfun, boring, or shoved with ugly people and certain politics. TLOU 2receiving GOTY was a joke. Is there a game, if any, coming from the west, that you are kinda hopeful about?
Some of the western games I enjoyed playing this year were Deep Rock, Synthetik, Desperados 3, Children of Morta, Satisfactory and Hitman 2, though they are hardly recent. I’m kinda hopeful about Hitman 3 but I heavily dislike the “always online” game model.
What about you guys, though?
Also, to mods, add a gaming/ geek culture tag or whatever. Options here are limited as it is.
As Throwaway531 mentioned, I'm keeping an eye on Evil Genius 2, as I liked the first one. And trying to stay hopeful for 2077 as a couple people have said.
Does waiting for Bannerlord's full release count? Cause that's on my list too.
Outside of that, whenever it comes Total War Warhammer 3. CA's had some suspect moves recently and they've been riding a semi-Paradox monetization scheme for a while now, but still want the Warhammer world to finish up. And I want my evil dudes with funny hats implemented already, darn it!
