I understand you personally are looking forward to Darwin's Paradox, but Pragmata and Tomodachi Life seem like obvious picks for april, if any.

Pragmata! How did I forget that one?? That’s a huge deal— definitely adding that one. Tomodachi I might add as well. And I only suggested Darwin mainly because it is the only game that’s releasing right in the middle of CD and Saros… though TL:LtD and Pragmata may be good enough. I’ll update the League soon.

Well. You can add Darwin’s Paradox if you want. You are allowed to indulge a bit 😊

My predictions:

Pragmata - 83

Tomodachi Life - 79

(Darwin’s Paradox -77)

My score is fucked!!!

Methinks we need to start trusting Shtinamin a little more. Not a single miss so far!

Also: It seems CD has leveled out around 80OC. I can only see this score dropping with time, however, being that reviewers were likely very specially hand-picked (as can be assumed judging by the apparent lack of any reviews on console). As it stands now, 80 is a solid score! Though ultimately I’ve come to learn after Stellar Blade, Echoes of Wisdom, and Metroid Prime 4 that these review scores mean squat: Play the game for yourself and reach your own conclusion. Don’t let a lower-than-expected score hamper your experience (…unless we’re talking like somewhere in the 60s).

Following up on this: It appears the aggregate of Steam users has arrived at the conclusion that, once again, critics aren’t the end-all-be-all. The games now sits at a Very Positive (81% Recommend), and only continues to climb. Glad to see another game receiving a ton of love this year— it’s always a good thing whenever something new hits the scene that really connects with people.



CD score seems to be alright. I'll get it in future when it's deep discounted and after enough updates to improve the game

Massive open world games generally take a year or two until they finally have their "definitive" edition, Cyberpunk comes to mind
