If I was on Steam, I wouldn’t be this annoyed if they prioritized Xbox Game Pass / Microsoft Players as it is their own platform, after all. But prioritizing Steam OVER your own platform, and no news of when it will be coming available nor any way to access the Steam PUP… now that is not cool.
Microsoft should of made it a free week for anyone to try the patch on steam and advertised it. Would of gave a lot of new players a chance to try the game
Plus advertise the n4c tourny in game. Would of been alot of exposure for aoe4
Pretty sure I’ve seen other games do this, like PUBG did. Just make it a separate game.
I’m playing this through game pass, even with that id be happy to pay for new civs down the road, but paying for the game on steam to participate in the pup is pretty lame, especially with this being a 1st party Xbox game.
