I'd heard good things about this game since release, but it never seemed quite my bag. After finishing Replaced, i went through some older gamepass installs and figured I'd give it a shot.

Not usually my type of game, and i have no idea if I'm playing it "right" (it pretty much just throws you in there and let's you have at it), but I'm hooked. I thought the lack of combat, visual novel type of "gameplay " would turn me off, but it's so charmingly weird, well voice acted, and hysterically written, that i can't get enough.

Who knew? That's the beauty of gamepass, I suppose, trying games you'd normally never look at twice and finding something you really dig.

Here's a candidate for dumbest question of the day:

A game i own on disc but haven't installed yet just showed up in the game catalog. If I add it to my library through plus, install it, and play it that way, I can still use my disc and play it after it leaves the catalog with no issues, correct?

I think the weakest point is the combat. I think the dev prioritized the animations over zippiness or something, because it just didn't feel that responsive. Frustrating when dealing with the gank squads repeatedly.

Other than that, top notch. Visuals, story, vibe, and score were all great. Maybe a couple pacing issues, but it's very engaging and unique overall.

Real quick one here.

I'm in the middle of CC's xmen run, following krushing crisis reading guide. I'm a few UXM away from where he's inserted the whole of the evolutionary war.

Is it worth reading, or can i skip it? I dont mind big events, but that's a ton of big annuals to read, and I'd rather not get derailed from the x books and forget what's going on in each book.

Thoughts?
