***Edit: deux ex
So I have access to the ps plus catalog. I’m really excited they have disco elysium the final cut, and dues ex mankind divided
My brain has muddled these two awesome franchise pop culture knowledge where I feel like I’m more or less able to go into either blind and I wanna preserve that! The thing is it’s not really clear to me for either title if I’d be playing a sequel (or something that is better enjoyed with prior context)
So I guess my question is for these two games, what should ideally be the order placement? Even if I just watch a yt essay on a previous game I don’t have access to just to have some good groundwork context.
I also am curious what games you discovered that is available through similar subscriptions. Were you pleasantly surprised? Just meet average expectations?
Disco Elysium isn’t part of a series (and probably won’t ever be, super disappointing news there). Going in blind for that one is a good idea.
I don’t use the subscription services much but I did try a month of Xbox Game Pass a few months ago. Ended up being disappointed by Persona 5 Tactica and a little bit surprised by Dune: Spice Wars. The plot pacing felt undercooked in P5T and Spice Wars reminded me of a bit of the early 2000’s vibe for Dune games, probably a plus for some people. Ultimately it didn’t keep me interested for more than a few hours (4X games have a very high bar to clear for me). Also tried Hi-Fi Rush, but didn’t stick with it long even though it felt like a solid product.
Didn’t continue Game Pass because I’m kind of a mercurial player, bouncing from game to game. What I end up sticking with depends a lot on vibes and mood. The service wasn’t the best fit for me.
