Wallet Threat Level

I have an eye put in Undungeon, an adventure-action-rpg with a weird scifi look

I normally 'catch ‘em all’ but I’m not sure this time. More old remakes that I’ve already played, I might pass this time unless they turn out to be super amazing.

I might check out Root on the Switch, since the actual board game is not really playable solo.

A new Combat Mission game, I could be interested but their technology apparently hasn’t yet advanced to making a UI that supports modern high resolution screens well. :P

You forgot Gunfire Reborn getting out of EA on Nov 18th, Rock8man. But I will put it on the proper thread that day.

Nothing this week, but Farming Sim 22 is a big one for me next week

Yeah buddy! Can’t wait to fire up some equipment and hit the fields!

Speaking of which, this recent announcement has me super psyched. They’ve finally given workers a massive upgrade, seemingly incorporating a lot of the functionality of the Courseplay mod into the main game, hopefully in a more user friendly manner:

Normally it’s a good idea to wait six months or more after an FS launch for all the essential mods to get ported over, but there are so many fundamental systems changes this time round, building in much of that mod functionality, that I’m happy to jump in straight away.

Sir, why do you insist on so thoroughly exciting my sensibilities?

Not thrilled about the higher price and the one year season pass. It’s almost $100 for a nicer farm simulator. If it’s freaking amazing I’d still have to think twice.

Oh, yeah, fuck the season pass. I rarely buy the DLC anyway. And if you’re going to try to sell me a season pass, you’d better tell me exactly what I’m going to get, not this vague bullshit.

Is your wallet under threat this week? I think mine is finally pretty safe, after spending quite a bit on game sales last week. How about new releases? Well, my top pick for Game of the Year comes to more platforms this week (Death’s Door), so that one should be a wallet threat for some people, hopefully. And of course, the new Farm simulator is the big standout wallet threat for Farm Sim fans this week. On game pass this week, and therefore not a wallet threat: Before We Leave, DEEEER Simulator, Mortal Shell. Cricket 22: should that be a wallet threat to Cricket fans? I love watching and playing, but I’ve never played a video game version still. What are these mysterious sounding games: Drizzlepath: Deja Vu and Night Lights?

Expansion for Warhammer Gladius, Adeptus Mechanicus, out today as well.

And that’s pretty much a wrap on releases for this year, right? Is there anything left or can we all start working on our “best of 2021” lists?

-Tom

Hover Attack releases on December 2nd, if all goes well.

Halo Infinite, Chorus (or is it Chorvs?) and The Gunk are the big December releases I think.

Also another Syberia game on December 10th. This might be the best one!

Post mortem, uh.

There’s a FFXIV expansion too.

Yup, Endwalker comes out December 7th. Considering it will be my excuse to make FFXIV my game of the year, it’s kind of important.

Grim Dawn’s Xbox One port is the big wallet threat to me this week. And possibly getting suckered into buying more games in all the on-going Black Friday game sales.
