I gather from its description its essentially an update from The Golf Club 2019, which I own, so torn on whether it's likely to be worth the upgrade.
There's also the matter of microtransactions, which some reviews mention and others do not.
Putting a price on that seems a largely individual assessment, but if you're not dying to play more of it, I wonder how long before the next refresh?
Sometimes publishers put a game in a bundle as an appetizer for a sequel that's out or about to arrive.
BTW Polygon has a relatively short piece[www.polygon.com] written by someone who has played 2019, which in itself is somewhat of a rarity!
Just call me sucker.
Some have reported getting it almost every other month, guess they must really high skip rates.
Personally, I'm leaning more towards skipping - Not for Broadcast, Roki, Narita Boy and Atomicrops all look good but there's literally too many games in the world, for me to buy everything that look good.
The beginning of a game is one pretty long intro video, followed by a ton, and I literally mean A TON, of exposition, with very little game play: I'd estimate it takes upwards of a dozen minutes in order to get to the first sliver actual game-play, which consists of fairly traditional precision ...like, though not hard, platforming.
Sadly I felt increasingly tired, first of going through box after box of text (so I started skipping the dialog) and quit after I died few times: there seems to be no real checkpointing inside levels, while OTOH there is a fairly long (by contemporary standards) delay before respawning (possibly not even to mask loading).
Besides the aesthetic, the game wasn't really doing anything for me, and I couldn't be bothered to go on.
Too bad as there might be a viable game afterwards, but I'll never know.
Given I'm playing with a mouse, it seemed odd with the swing/power bar horizontally along the bottom rather than vertically, but maybe because everyone I saw seemed to be reviewing it on console none commented on it as unusual or a change to the previous version. Sounds like I'll get used to the changes from what you say anyway.
Used to play a ton of Links LS 1998 way back when.
Unusually, not a single one of the other games in the bundle grabbed me this month as something I would even bother trying. Not in my wheelhouse from the descriptions/videos and I'd rather watch someone interesting play Not for Broadcast rather than play it myself.
For many games, I don't quite seem to get as much out, per minute, from watching or reading, as I get from getting my hands dirty. (There are exceptions to this rule, obviously, but nothing compares to direct experience, for good or bad.)
Perhaps this is because writers and video makers strive to make their output interesting per se, which adds one more layer, besides tastes, perspective, attitude, etc, that must be extricated to arrive to a useful assessment.
For this reason, I appreciate spare keys: regardless of what I think about the game, they give me hands-on time which might be useful for writing my posts and providing advice.
I'm not quite sure about the angle - the premise is that what's essentially a radical Communist party has just been elected and is out to get the wealthy and their money etc
Now, the most accomplished and famous criticism of authoritarian regimes is Orwell's 1984 which nonetheless was written as a satire of the Soviet Union, as Orwell was ferociously anti-Communist.
Nevertheless, and given the general political drift towards extreme right-wing ideologies, leading to a rise of Fascist-like leaders and parties, it does seem like a ...uhm... odd choice, although I played too little to be able to tell whichever way the game is going.
The Polygon Early Access review[www.polygon.com] mentions that "it gets weird fast" and adds:
