I feel...okay...with my purchases this weekend (GTA V, DOOM, using a bunch of Humble Credit to get Singularity for $3 since I wanted to play it back when it first came out, stopping myself from almost paying $10 for Prototype 2 because I assumed it was $5....lol Activision pricing) except I did make what could be a huge mistake. Homefront: The Revolution was $13, $17 with all the season pass and garbage, and I got swept up like two weeks ago in the months later "hey, this game is actually pretty good and the jank is sorta adorable*" stuff that started after Tom Chick gave it four stars. (Same as Doom! And four times as many stars as No Man's Sky!) Then some other people started revisiting it and making it sound fun. And it seemed way out of line with the really weirdly jaded coverage that was sorta best shown by Austin at GiantBomb (but he wasn't the only one) gave it at launch where it seemed like they were looking for reasons to hate and mock everything before even playing it. It was a bit in the Quick Look where like Vinny asked about stuff and Austin immediately dismissed it as worst thing ever, but somewhere else I watched a video about (Polygon?), and all the stuff they were making fun of as if serious was like seemingly Saints Row/Borderlands "tongue-in-cheek" making light of the source material stuff. Especially the USA firework gun.
I guess it also ran like garbage, had all kinds of missions bugs and crashed constantly on consoles at release.
There better be Paddy's Pub and other Always Sunny references in this game though. Or else, what's the point.
