Second verse same as the first or..

The OPEN Beta for Anthem just started Feb 1st, so of course I am playing that too. as my first thoughts post just dropped I will also be getting into what changes/fixes they may have accomplished(so far setting out on expeditions ain a problem no more so that was cool) while in the INITIAL VIP demo they only wanted you to get 2 javelins to try out(you started out with the Ranger and then once you hit level 12 you got ONE unlock token for the second Javelin of your choice, I chose storm) but now in the OPEN demo/beta they are allowing you to drive all of the Javelins. So I will ATTEMPT to use all 4 and see what happens as I stomp around as a Colossus(Meat Shield no Jutsu), flit around in the Interceptor(Ninja Death Fairy), continue sending elemental pain with the Storm(Dr. Strange's Iron Man armor), and damage deal with the Ranger(basically War Machine, lots of guns decent armor, lots of BOOM).

I do like that there isn't too much handholding in Anthem yes they may show you where to fly to but once the fighting stars do you boo boo, BUT they may want to provide better quest maps, we couldn't finish the strong hold last night because either someone else had just defeated the damn big bad or else we couldn't find where it expected us to go. Either way a decent in dungeon map would fix that. Maybe in the next update. As I mentioned in my PREVIOUS post, I am not fully sold on Anthem yet, but I am intrigued. If they had Origin Premier available on Xbox it would probably be worth the hundo a year to be able to play this game on the 10th, but as far as dropping 55 or 72 on it we gone have to play it a little bit more which I plan to do today. See you in the skies freelancer

First Thoughts: Anthem Demo

Okay, so if you have been reading EITHER of my blogs for a while you know I am a gamer, I own an Xbox one, Pay for my Xbox Live Gold yearly, and my EA Access yearly(on my Xbox, Sony does not yet allow EA Access on PS4). One of the BENEFITS of EA Access is that if there is a DEMO for a game coming on, EA will give you VIP early access to it just like you had PRE-ORDERED the game. I made use of it for Battlefield V caused me to buy the game at launch. I liked and still like it, I haven't played it as much recently as I have gone back to Forza 7 a little AND I am grinding on Black Ops 4 but I do like the game it is still fun. I use the 10 hr previews when games launch as well that EA gives with saved progression for if or when you buy the game. So if I decide "Hmm, this game is okay BUT MY BACKLOG DOH..." I don't exactly have to start from scratch.

So I saw the Anthem Demo was out, downloaded it, played an hour or so of CoD and then was like okay, lets take this Javelin for a test run
