Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

[1998]

Releasing on the 9th Dec or for premium ******* already on the 6th. Not much hype, even less marketing, but I will d1p it just to play as regular Indy again.



I know nothing about their budget, but that sure doesn't look good.

I just saw some video popping up my YouTube feed about that just after I posted it. ****...

Punchanazi Jones and the Great Nothingburger.

got the deluxe edition for 20 bucks, so I'll test it on friday. Good thing this slop is game pass but I do want to play it since they did say it is like Riddick.

How?

[1998]

Basically it's unplayable without DLSS even on 1080p and low settings or what are they saying here?

If there is a game on game pass that also has a deluxe edition, you can just buy the deluxe edition upgrade and still get all stuff like early access

I've been wanting an action-adventure Indy videogame ever since i played 'Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb' in highschool. I remember being hyped for the sequel, watched every pre-release video, salivated over the impressive Euphoria engine ragdoll physics from that trailer where Indy was beating up thugs while standing on top of a moving streetcar. Then the game got canned, and its assets got repurposed into some ****** psp-exclusive 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' tie-in.

And now, almost twenty years later, my wish for a big budget Indy game is fullfilled... by the woke wolfenstein swedecucks. This is some monkey paw **** right here.

Old Blood was great, but yeah sadly long past those days.

Days before release, #43 seller. Really low preorder numbers.

[wndrbr]

Not surprising. Bad marketing campaign + that ****** film from the last year completely destroying Indy, makes sense that no one cares anymore.

[Roguey]

CHOO CHOO

Are they loading the whole game in memory at once holy ****.

Days before release, #43 seller. Really low preorder numbers.

Could also be due to it being in game pass and people just getting a month of it and then beating it instead of pre-ordering it for 70-110 bucks

I really don’t understand how Microsoft keeps pushing game pass when the adoption rate is low. Like how are they even making money on this at this point.

Nah even for that #43 is abysmally low

[1998]

Why not....

[J1M]

Very confused as to what the hook is for this game aside from "you've heard of the IP before!"

Is anyone actually interested in an Indiana Jones side-story? If such a customer exists, surely this would need to be officially tied into an upcoming film for them to care?

The gameplay appears to be essentially watching cutscenes and performing quicktime events.

For me to care, I would have wanted to see something like a design focus on controlling the whip.

Don't think they know it themselves. They were running Wolfenstein into the ground, somehow got that IP as their last shot. They had not choice...

They probably gain more money from collecting and using game pass users' data than from selling games.

[Tangerine]

Why not....

They're asking a lot for something so visually unimpressive.

[rusty_shackleford]

Why not....

The requirements to run games that don't look better than games from 10 years ago is ridiculous

[rusty_shackleford]

$70 AAAA game that requires a $2000 PC to run at 60 FPS

Wow, shocking, it looks worse than Red Dead Redemption 2 which released 6 years ago and ran on last gen consoles/PCs with much lower specs!

Record it I want to laugh and see your misery.

Me? Recording and uploading takes too long.

"The Great Circle"...

► Show Spoiler

One popular theory is that it is derived from the Yiddish word for circle, “kikel,” a reference to how Jewish immigrants at Ellis Island signed their entry forms: a circle as opposed to an X, which **** associated with the cross of Christianity.

[UltraFan123]

I find it oddly amusing how the people behind modern media never seem to get tired of using nazis as the antagonists in everything they do.

Back when all "hero shooters" were doing it was already starting to get old, and now they're just another generic slop enemy like zombies or stuff like that.

Wonder why they simply don't use communists as the antagonists for a change, seeing how there has been like a dozen communist regimes throughout history all over the world, in contrast to the single nazi regime in a single country that came and went.

That above was a joke question, cuz we all know why the current establishment is so against showing communism under a negative light. lol

[Roderick]

Anyone want to tell the devs Dr. Jones punches commies instead...
