I am tempted to grab the game just to see the graphics of Hellblade 2.  Recommended GPU via Steam is a 3080, which is crazy.  The game has to be stunning in motion.  

Honestly, that type of visuals do very little for me - I recognize it's a technical marvel, and being sound guy I appreciate audio component being superb as well, but...there's hardly any game in there, and that's what I care about when I sit to play something.

My stepson has a Gamepass on PC, so maybe I'll take a look at it...eventually.

That is my concern, effectively.  I want to see the visuals but could see spending $40 and playing for 20 minutes and then being bored.  Doesn't seem to be a good choice, but I've made poor choices previously.
