So far the three big boppers of my own personal game-release-shitstorm have managed to turn things around, surprising me each time.

No Man's Sky

Cyberpunk 2077

Battlefield 2042 (it's vastly improved, and fun, but my tongue was severely burnt by this particular number.)

One particular developer I'm always happy to throw money at is Supergiant Games. Bastion, Transistor, Pyre, Hades and upcoming Hades II. Loved em all. They know what they do well and I am comfortable expecting quality out of Hades II.

As I say this, I realise that I will also be throwing money at SquareEnix with the upcoming FF7: Rebirth. But I have to get that or my childhood self will travel into the future and kick me in the head.
