I guess this is an unpopular opinion, but I liked Xenocide. It’s a good book. Oh, of course it’s not anywhere near the level of Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead, but I enjoyed it. Ending was a bit weird and that’s why I didn’t start a sequel yet. Maybe it helps that I listened to audio book and didn’t read the physical book. Some books are more digestible in audio form imo. Or, because I go through 120 plus books in a year, my picture of a terrible book is different.
Yep, the main thing I worry about. But the parent company that the Sony is considering buying owns only like 65% of From Software. So maybe from software will have some leeway and they can put their foot down and say they don’t want to use PSN. Maybe? Hopefully? Otherwise, elden ring will be the last game that I bought from them.
