Suggest me a Xbox One game
Discussion
So, made redundant two weeks ago and while I wait for interviews to be scheduled I've done about everything I want to do round the house etc and I'm seriously getting very bored. So, weather a bit crap, looking for console games to keep me amused.
Games I played and liked:
GTA
RDR2
Assetto Corsa (might get Grid when it comes out so that's driving games covered)
Elite Dangerous (on PC)
Firewatch
Mutant Year Zero - Road to Eden
Far Cry 5 and New Dawn
Also played Skyrim - Elder Scrolls V but didn't think much to it.
Games the kids have got already:
Minecraft
Fortnite
Fifa 20
Want "Last of Us" but looks like PS4 exclusive
Looking at Cuphead - any good?
Currently playing What's left of Edith Finch - loving it, anything else I should be looking at? Don't really fancy any Assassins Creed or Call of Duty style as I'm generally crap at combat and prefer something with a bit more depth. Also looking at No Mans Sky but the reviews put me off.

If you liked firewatch and are enjoying Finch, I'd recommend Life is Strange which should be dirt cheap - the prequel (Before the Storm) is worth it if you enjoy the original. Is Obra Dinn on xbox yet? If so I'd highly recommend that also. The Witness is a good puzzle game that just throws you straight into the game with zero explanation, so you just start working st out.
Tried Fallout 4 about a year ago, did not like. Combat was ridiculously hard for me, got to a point about a quarter of the way in where I just couldn't progress.
Think game pass is the way to go, eldest off sick today so by the time I got to the xbox in early afternoon it had been taken, so I'll have to wait til Monday now.

I enjoyed The Division although it was a bit of a bullet sponge type game. Tempted to get the second one which is supposed to be better.
Haven't bought anything for ages as it's my son who mainly uses it but just got Red Dead Redemption 2 and so far enjoying it.
Got it from CEX for £25. Division 2 going for £18.

i've been hooked on borderlands 3 since that came up. too many bosses!
I'm really on the fence about this one, I loved the first and second one so it should be a safe bet i'll like this one as I have heard it is really similar? But have heard some negative things too...can't make my mind up!SaggyOstrich said:

I loved 1 & 2, its a more polished version but has lost a little charm at the same time. The story is amusing and also terrible if you really think about it, think classic bond story.Lots of time sunk into it by myself so far, and liking the subtle changes they have made to gun brands and rewards to vary your play styles... & some useful additions (lost loot crate etc)

Did you use VATS? Where you 'Stop' time and target using that and action points. As a raw FPS it can be extremely fast paced without using that, you need to use both the RPG skills & FPS bits to really make it work well together.Think game pass is the way to go, eldest off sick today so by the time I got to the xbox in early afternoon it had been taken, so I'll have to wait til Monday now.
