"AA" games can look fantastic though, with incredible voice acting.

See: Expedition 33.


I think "too much budget" is a thing. There's just a point where it hurts more than helps, and now AAAAs (as I dub them) are smacking into it.

I'm still waiting for a decent sale on Expedition 33 before I buy it.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s discounted on GoG!

Which is where it should be bought anyway, as it will be DRM free and the lightest to run.

Good to know! I will get it from there. Except that isn't a decent sale yet
