Same for me. Enjoyed the game up until endgame. Played like 10 maps and got bored. It just feels like I'm doing the same thing over and over for nothing. The gearing just doesn't feel good for me. But overall I'd say it's an 8/10 game.
@@kristianswotek4274 I agree from a content perspective but I do believe the core endgame loop could be better. But like Johan said, solid 8/10, very good game and very worth the 40 hours I put in. I’ll just wait for an update to grind another 40.
@@Highonwater3X enough people care that they laid people off and opened up a patreon asking fans for more money a few weeks before the game even releases
@@YardPrep00That is basically the videogame industry. There is a lot of news of people being laid off for various reasons. Also maybe just go back playing games that boogeyman ain't going to hurt you because it's all in your head.
I'm actually really stoked for Hyper Light Breaker. I love their two previous games and this looks like a cool take on a co-op looter. Defintely gonna be checking it out. Thanks for covering!
Just want to clarify something about WoW: Plunderstorm for people who might be on the fence about checking it out. The combat is not exactly like WoW like Force says in the video. There is no tab targeting in Plunderstorm. Everything, including your auto attack, is a skillshot. The movement feels exactly like WoW but the combat is actually more like an action game. Plunderstorm is amazing and I don't want people to be discouraged from trying it because they think it'll be like WoW PvP, it's not at all.
Thanks for clarifying. Sadly, I don't want to touch anything Blizzard is making on principle. But I am glad that they are embracing action combat. I wish they had decided to do action combat instead of mythic+.
Yah last thing I want in WoW is a fortnight mode, I tried it and it was not for me, glad its in there for the sweaty PvP players but that's never been my jam, at least its not on a time limit now so you don't feel you have to play a mode you hate.
Eternal Strands seems way more Zelda BotW than it does Shadow of the Colossus, but if Immortals Fenyx Rising is any indication… we might be in for greatness 🔥
quinfall is atleast 2-3 years from complete, expect more of an open world sandbox with mmo elements for the time being. Im still enjoying it currently, but its more like, i can put on headphones listen to an audiobook and hunt for bugs while grinding away and thats currently my life for the next two weeks. in saying that, i actually dont mind the grind and its given me stuff to do =] definitely wont be for everyone. and i know what ive got access to right now is different from release.
Force I love your videos because we aren't the same kind of gamer. I'm always interested to hear your take on games near and dear to my heart and learn about games I haven't heard of that you're very passionate about. Keep it up!
Started watching this thinking "idk how i'm gonna play any of these when I need to get this second character going in POE 2" only to hear you make a reference to it in the first 30 seconds lmaooo I feel you brother
@@nbainsonia This is hilarious because I started on blood mage until about lvl 85 and am now playing monk. You can run offensive sorc spells on witch if you've been wanting to try minions btw, best of luck! lol
Man I played an unhealthy amount of PoE 1 from alpha of 2011 to around 2017, then on and off, and PoE 2 is just a completely snorefest to me. Hopefully it gets a lot better when it releases officially.
Grew up on Dynasty Warriors, so I'm excited to see the reboot of the series... AND with story choices and different endings?? Wild. Eternal Strands could be really great, new studio from the former creative director of Dragon Age
The Kingdoms/Inhuman Bondage update for Darkest Dungeon 2 is pretty much the only thing I'm looking forward to this month. Otherwise, it's all PoE2 and Factorio until Monster Hunter drops.
Did you ever play .. Grim Dawn ... Personally I think it is Better than PoE and D2or3 .... Haven't played PoE2 yet .. so can't say anything about. *Hope Have Great New Year and Enjoy*
hey have you considered doing something similiar but for game updates? sometimes theres great games releasing major content updates but its hard to keep up with all of them
u sound tired of telling us about all the games XD but u are still my go to for games of whts new whts coming so plz dont stop doing the work for us XD
star wars : jedi power battle yeah you've said that its release on 23th January BUT you never said on which plateform, a pretty important information to say the least...
Stopped playin poe 2 after 70 hours...felt like I was wasting my time with with soooo much of the game not released yet. Got a good taste of it, but I'ma gonna wait until full release to jump back in and start fresh.
I am so hyped for FF, PoE 2 needs a lot of work. Currently PoE 1 is a way better game and i'm more excited for the february league there than any PoE 2 content in a while.
No Orcs Must Die Deathtrap??? Is it too niche? Don't know, but for me it shoulld have been on the list since OMD is a known IP for years. Compared to other games on the list I feel it would deserve a spot in there.
I’m very concerned for hyper light breaker and the future of the studio. They recently lost their publisher and are now searching for funds via Patreon. Now to be fair their publisher was none other than. Sweet Baby Inc. So this is still somewhat of a positive post😂😂. With that being said, I truly hope they find the funds they need to keep this project alive beyond early access
@@AlphonseNouveau I bought SE1 and have been playing it to familiarize myself with at least the basics before SE2 drops. And here I thought Eve Online had a steep learning curve lmao.
I had a ton of fun with old dragon warrior games but they've been crap for so long. If they are finally putting some effort into it... could be something. Quinfall... it's The Day Before.. again. Still though you're getting (hopefully) paid to play these so let us know
Can we skip January and go straight into February please
Yes bro. I am waiting for Civ 6 and Kingdom Come 2! I’m excited for these two games the most.
No way I want FF and Spiderman, waited to long.
Months feel really long all of the sudden. December felt like two Octobers.
Fuck yes! Monster hunter, baby!
Monster Hunter!
As a developer for Rebellion Studios, hearing you enjoy Sniper Elite series makes me real happy! Thank you for your support and amazing content
I’m excited! It looks awesome, I love yalls work, you guys are awesome!
You guys get how to make a videogame. Looking forward to this one!
SE is my favourite series as well!
You do great work! Invasion mode is some of the most fun I've had in a good while! As long as it's included, SE is a sure buy from my side
love the difficulty options btw
I got to end game in PoE2 the other day and lost all interest. It was a fun ride. Here’s looking forward to updates.
Sad... Endgame consist in speed play + spam same skill... Arpg try run from It but in the end of the road we reach This...
same brother same, endgame is just grindfest and a boring one
Yeeee. If you are not LA or spark with rarity gear the endgame sucks. I can never change build from 55% move speed 😂
This is my fear I'm on act 3 cruel and loving it but worry that il lose interest in the endgame
I think endgame is just a placeholder right now. It’ll get better.
For some reason poe didn’t hold me. Once I hit mapping it felt so slow for so few rewards.
Same for me. Enjoyed the game up until endgame. Played like 10 maps and got bored. It just feels like I'm doing the same thing over and over for nothing. The gearing just doesn't feel good for me. But overall I'd say it's an 8/10 game.

yea I dropped it around 60hrs, dont feel bad. Ill be back in a a few months
4:34 "Chochubo training" lol
Pretty cool they added in a new species of bird. I wonder how they differ from Chocobo
I cringed so hard when he said that
I immediately came here for this comment. Force .. explain yourself
I am SO glad I wasn't the only one that cringed at that.
Lol! I was looking for this comment
Really excited for Hyperlight Breaker and Eternal Strands. Been watching them for awhile
Eternal Strands is a day 1 for me. The rest on this list is ok but that one looks great
Eternal Strand is directed by Mike Laidlaw, the creator of Dragon Age.
Hyperlight looks great!
hyperwoke trans propaganda clown
Made in collaboration with Sweet Baby
@@YardPrep00nobody cares. Move on from this Sweet Baby boogeyman already.

The new DW game honestly impressed me. I've been a fan of the franchise for decades, and it truly felt like a return to form.
So I am not the only one...
Why are you acting like you already played the game? Hype overdose?
Really weird.
@@leoleo1035 Probably becuase they played the demo and the demo felt really good. Shows you don't acutally listen to the videos you watch.
@@leoleo1035 Played the demo, that's why. Really weird comment.
Yellow Brick confirmed a public demo for Steam of Eternal Strands on Jan 21, just FYI
Eternal Strands seems way more Zelda BotW than it does Shadow of the Colossus, but if Immortals Fenyx Rising is any indication… we might be in for greatness 🔥
Chochobo LETS GO! XD
Tails of Iron 2 whiskes of winter is an amazing game also comming out in january. The game is a souls like motroidvania so I highly recommend it.
Assetto Corsa Evo launches this month too
I love this series of videos!! thank you so much for the PSA

I'll play Quinfall, even if it just lasts a 'Day Before' I give up. I like what you did there. :)
love your videos.. always so professional!!!
Hyper light breaker has to be a banger
Didn't know Spider-Man 2 was coming to PC this month...
Force I love your videos because we aren't the same kind of gamer. I'm always interested to hear your take on games near and dear to my heart and learn about games I haven't heard of that you're very passionate about. Keep it up!
eternal strands looks not bad. like how the elements interact with everything.
personally excited for Aloft!
Eternal Strands looks a bit like Kena: Bridge of Spirits
TY Force for the content!!!
jedi power battles from dreamcast holds a special place in my heart when i was a kid. it was fun multiplayer at the time, back when d2 became huge
ET strads looks really fun i like the tech for the game
Mentioning Assetto Corsa EVO (Jan 15th) would be a good idea actually. A massive release (though early access) for all the sim racing fans.
Always gotta check out the monthly preview videos

Star Wars Jedi Power Battles was fun as hell back in the day
Diablo 4 has reached it's ultimate form
Play Warlander! Fun free game. MOBA Castle Siege hack n slash like game. It's getting a reboot this summer.
ALOFT????? LOOKS GREAT!!!
Happy New Year!!!
Keep An Eye out for 'Expedition 33' really looking forward to that.
That’s coming out in january?
If you like Metroidvenias, Ender Magnolia is coming out EA on Jan 23th .
I'll be playing some backlog this month, until pirate yakuza and monster hunter wild
Not another "return to form" please.
Was FF7 good? is it really worth giving a go?
Tales of Graces F remaster in January for any JRPG players watching
Did you ever play .. Grim Dawn ... Personally I think it is Better than PoE and D2or3 .... Haven't played PoE2 yet .. so can't say anything about.

I got destiny 1 on my ps5 for $20. Then also picked up guild wars 1 all 4 parts for less then $20 on a steam sale.
It's only EA, but Space Engineers 2 has me excited
Space engineers 2 early access starts this month too
u sound tired of telling us about all the games XD but u are still my go to for games of whts new whts coming so plz dont stop doing the work for us XD
dynasty warriors origins seems like a decent base for the next pirate warriors one piece game XD id play that but not this for sure
I’m not subscribing to wow to try plunderstorm lol. I would have definitely gave it a go if it was standalone.
star wars : jedi power battle yeah you've said that its release on 23th January BUT you never said on which plateform, a pretty important information to say the least...

Dynasty warrior is what I’m looking at.

Oh wow. Nothing but garage for January.
Pretty sure is saw LuBu. Is it even a Dynasty Warriors game if LuBu isn't in it
So no games this month. Can February come any faster?
Force you ever played Age of Wonders 4? Not sure if you like 4x games.
I have been waiting for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth for PC so fucking long, but I will have to wait abit longer because I do not have an RTX Card.
" goes straight back to POE2 "
The way you say chocobo 🤣
Never been so early
I remember craking the hell out of destiny warriors on the dreamcast
Hyper light looks like its gonna be a free game soon
did he just pronounce Axis as "axe-eye"???
Avowed looks fun!
Arc Raiders waiting room :)
How was Kingdom Come: Deliverance II not on your list?? 🤯🤯
Because it comes out in February :)

Thanx for giving me another way to pronounce Chocobo
I am still finishing my 2023 games
Honestly once i reached endgame in Path of Exile 2, i felt the game went too slow for literally little rewards.
Honestly, out of these, i will likely only try out FF7R on PC since i never got to play it on PS, the rest of these im not really interested in
Try Loop Hero
POE2 would be perfect game if it had pvp.
