That's it I'm not going to bother with Two Point Hospital.

Finished Wasteland 2: Director's Cut today. Started it a year and a half ago, played around 20 hours and stopped for some reason. It's a very good game, looking forward to playing Wasteland 3 now.

It seems I was right on point about Ori in OpenCritic prediction thread. Good to see it reviewing that well. Just beaten the first game yesterday in preparation for a sequel. I've heard it has some performance issues, hopefully they will fix them pretty quick. Gonna pick up my copy tomorrow after work.

The more I play Two Point Hospital, the more I hate it. It's not nearly as good as the Metascore suggests.

Already complained about the "campaign" but even after my 10th hospital, it still plays exactly the same. There were 2 levels that were slightly different but the rest is identical.

The game makes no sense. I've already complained about how increasing prices just a tiny bit will decrease price reputation to 0% and with it reputation as a whole.
Now I've been looking through my reputation stats since my current hospital has gone down to 8% reputation score and it turns out that the average of all separate reputation scores is 60 (!) and not 8. Absolutely ridiculous.

The messages you get are so annoying. Why do I have to reply to every single patient who wants a certain treatment I don't offer? Why can't I just select that my hospital doesn't offer a certain treatment so that these patients will get sent home automatically after diagnosis? I have about $100k in cash but get like 5 requests at the same time for different kind of rooms that cost ~$30k each. And the worst thing about it... the game is lying again. It seems like you're getting a message every time but you don't. And then when these patients can't wait any longer and run out of the hospital because you didn't send them home earlier, you will lose reputation. *claps*

At this point I can see that the game definitely isn't going to get any better, if anything it's going to get worse. The first 5-10 hours might be fun and that's probably the reason why this game got so many 8/10 and 9/10 scores, because reviewers weren't playing much longer than that.

Yep you've turned me off. With all the hype my next game is going to be the first Ori, which I haven't played.

I'd always hoped to go to E3 one day. Highly unlikely it returns in anything like its current form after this.

I imagine the E3 show will still happen if cancelled just without the fans since Xbox don't rely on E3 to host the show.

Whether E3 happens or not going forward I still see Microsoft the doing fanfest with a conference at the Microsoft Theatre each year along with X0 travelling around to different countries so we be safe there on live shows in June/November. I think the biggest thing E3 has going for it is it's the only time none gaming enthusiast media actually put out a bunch of gaming content around the entire 2-3 week E3 hype period and doing digital only events could loose that mainstream visibility.

I never said you shouldn't play Two Point Hospital. It is fun for a few hours after all.

That's the beauty of Game Pass. Play for a few hours, have fun and then just drop it without remorse since you never paid for it.

There's a punch card in the rewards app for getting one achievement in Ori worth 250 points. Not bad for such an easy task.

But then you're left with 10% completion rate or something :P
