This is now an Indiana Jones and the Great Circle fan account.

I swear if this game's performance disappoints I will have lost what faith I have left in the enthusiast audience.

It is pretty, pretty, pretty goooood.

I sprang for early access and asides from being a lot of fun to play with a lot of agency given to the player, it nails all the “feel” of an Indy movie.

knurek.bsky.social•148 days ago

it's on Gamepass, it's performance will disappoint

matpiscatella.bsky.social•148 days ago

It's not 2013 anymore

knurek.bsky.social•147 days ago

I like your optimism.
I don't necessarily think your optimism is founded here, but nevertheless, I like it

karelsteutelings.bsky.social•147 days ago

I have this feeling with the last movie. It hit all the notes perfectly and the audience just didn’t show up. People sometimes forget how silly The Last Crusade was. The Dial of Destiny can easily stand shoulder to shoulder with Crusade.

I'll never get over the negativity with its reveal after the Xbox presentation.

"Of course it's first person, thanks Xbox"

"Looks like shit"

"It's all scripted events, no gameplay"

"Xbox 7/10"

Same thing with Perfect Dark. I'm glad it turned out to be great and looking forward to playing it!

I was just hoping that my 4080 Super would be able to handle the ray tracing. Based on the Digital Foundry video, I think I'll be okay.

engincetin.bsky.social•148 days ago

I would have bought it for Ps5 pro, but now it will be through pc game pass for me

erren.bsky.social•148 days ago

As an Indiana Jones fan, I was shocked at the dismal blockbuster numbers for the recent film... Hopefully the game can do better.

sen-1k.bsky.social•148 days ago

To be fair the film kinda sucked. I don't regret going to see it on the big screen, parts of it were enjoyable, but that's as much praise as I can give.
I even prefer the Crystal Skull and that was already a far cry from the heights of the original three.

erren.bsky.social•147 days ago

True, and I'm surprised it wasn't anything amazing considering the director and other staff. At least we'll always have the original trilogy.

sen-1k.bsky.social•146 days ago

Yeah, considering that James Mangold's previous films were Logan and Le Mans '66 which I both love, I expected more from his take on Indy.

misczak.com•148 days ago

I can’t remember the last time a a Microsoft first party game had this kind of word of mouth.

altitude2k.bsky.social•148 days ago

BLOPS 6?

misczak.com•148 days ago

Eh maybe but I view CoD as its own entity with a fair amount of established momentum

segagamer.bsky.social•147 days ago

Hi Fi Rush?

Grounded?

bgamer90.bsky.social•148 days ago

I was going to say Forza Horizon 5 was the last time (i.e.: ‘GOTY level’).

altitude2k.bsky.social•148 days ago

Different scale, but Pentiment springs to mind.

superhys.bsky.social•147 days ago

It's SO good. I'm in awe

khalid117.bsky.social•147 days ago

I play through Game Pass but already feel guilty for not supporting it more. It's so good!

pantspottson.bsky.social•148 days ago

I hope the word of mouth spreads enough that it sells well when it releases on PlayStation in a few months.

literatetruth.bsky.social•148 days ago

The marketing hasn’t been great. I’ll buy it on PS5 for my wife. Nothing I’ve seen has convinced me yet. I rarely play first person games, and this one looks kinda slow and boring

But a lot of people seem to think it’s great. I’ll watch my wife play before deciding if it’s my thing or not

matpiscatella.bsky.social•148 days ago

Have to stop playing as my fingers are in pain lol.

If the back half of this holds up this could be an all-timer for me.

jonthebrit.bsky.social•148 days ago

Incredibly excited to start on Monday

falkor451.bsky.social•148 days ago

It’s such a great game. Idk what @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social was talking about. I’m loving it.

ricbr.bsky.social•146 days ago

Nice short from the film, with Alfred Molina (used in the game too) :

hidesquadron1.bsky.social•148 days ago

I'm in love with this game

samueltolbert.bsky.social•148 days ago

It's fantastic, man. I hold it up alongside Raiders and Last Crusade now.

matpiscatella.bsky.social•148 days ago

Yep I'm completely drawn into the story and really appreciate how the game lets me get to those beats on my own. It feels like an adventure I'm driving as the player, not one being fed to me. It's wild.

bmakar83.bsky.social•148 days ago

I'll be buying it next year when it hits PlayStation!

extremegamer.bsky.social•148 days ago

You will love it. As mostly an Xbox gamer I’m so happy PS5 gamers will get to experience this game.

bmakar83.bsky.social•148 days ago

Everything I've been hearing about it has sounded incredible, I'm really looking forward to it!

bluntmatt.bsky.social•148 days ago

Same here.

retro-wave.bsky.social•147 days ago

Does performance really matter in this case, if it is on gamepass?

omlagus.bsky.social•148 days ago

How much do you think demographics will affect this? Indy seems very much a Gen X IP. Which is right up my alley, but I'm not sure the kids these days see the appeal.

funbutter.me•148 days ago

This is not a game I want to play on PC, and I don't have an Xbox, so like many others I'll be waiting for the PS5 release

Something tells me that the tale of the tape on this game will be revealed when it lands on PlayStation

kressnik.bsky.social•147 days ago

My exact thoughts yesterday. If people don't buy it in droves - we are done. We can just stop the planet and call it a wrap.

kressnik.bsky.social•147 days ago

I felt horribly yesterday due to shitty insomnia the night before and cold, I still had to actively convince myself that maybe it's best if I stop playing and go to sleep. This game is so special to me already. Machine Games nailed it. Every aspect of it.

nickjon3006.bsky.social•147 days ago

Up there with Raiders for me. Outstanding.
