So yeah, the testing grounds are really fun compared to the open world with it's abundance of robots that want to kill you (and make you waste way too much ammo which is rare and resource heavy).
But it's not really russian propaganda, the game does criticize members of Politburo and power hungry communist leaders in general, alot of the valorizing is rather tongue in cheek.
The progression of the main character kinda reminds me of Solid Snake in MGS games, a naive pawn used by a corrupt government.
oh ok I didnt catch that, well its easy to assume its russian propaganda and I kinda expected it a bit before playing the game, but it turned out not to be the case.
how are russkies even going to learn of this oh so glorious work of propaganda
It's not available in RU-Steam coz the the game is officially distributed via VK services (It's a KGB honeypot used by Putin's NKVD agents to spy on Russians and persecute them for any post, like or whatever ).
Ok mens, riddle me this:
I want to give Atomic Heart a try, and see two gamepass options for 1€ on the windows store, normal and ultimate.
Ultimate offers some more shit, but unless some of the good stuff is not mentioned in this comparison, then the ultimate doesn't seem that much better:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/b/compare-xbox-game-pass-plans
My question is, in the description above it says that only the first month is at 1€, after that normal prices apply. While 1 month will be more than enough for me to play what I want to play, wasn't there some sort of deal in which you'd stack more "free"/1€ months on top of the first?

Can you backtrack in this game? Went along with the marker and with it's linear dungeon's being also a bit open ended i figured i'd run back to explore rooms i skipped, but nope.. Door was closed behind me and i couldn't get back to the elevator room.
Correct.
Bit weird that microsoft *seemingly* doesn't even check this, but the game downloaded, installed and launched regardless.
Also, from earlier in the thread:

then you can really just make another one every month/whenever you want and share the membership with your main account
Try it, but i just bought it normally and it was 1 dollar. I already bought several 1$ deals. The most recent one was a few months ago to play A Plague Tale
I was playing on a dummy account for that $1 deal for a couple of hours. Saw this video and, as far as I can tell, I've switched to my main account and the game was available to play, so I guess the method in the video will work. Savegames from the dummy account doesn't carry over to other accounts tho. Once it expires, I'll try subscribing to another dummy account and see what happens.
Gamepass has some nice titles, but I refuse to pay the full gamepass price and can't fucking stand that UWP thing where you simply cannot access the folders and files, even with that "Take Ownership.reg" method, so I rather pay that $1 on other accounts lol
I'll give it a shot in ~30 days

you give paypal , activate your game pass month(s) and then quit subscription in your microsoft account.
"Manage Subscriptions" on your profile on the xbox pc app, then login when prompted, then Billing Options (I think) on the PC Game Pass, then "Turn off recurring billing", confirm, done.

Which is sold to thousands of users for that price and thus will at some point be invalidated. KMS38 is free or you can use the new permanent activation. Easy

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us, we are following it very closely and will share the news in a timely manner!
Amazed that peeps tolerate the dogshit that it this xbox pc platform.
Can't add the exe file on RTSS, exceptions on exploit protection or even directly on nderpia cp because no administrative rights because fuck you.
Besides that, was about to play it and it started updating (probably the patch below). No big deal I thought, until it tells me it's a 52.5GB download. A 52.5GB update. On PC
Not sure if it's related to moving the game files from another computer to this one, followed the steps but at this point, who knows if that even works as it's supposed to.
Besides that, I'm pretty sure those ~80Gb the game occupies are filled with useless shit (likely multilingual audio, movies, who knows what else) that won't ever be used, but need to be downloaded either way.
And to think that people pay 10-15€ a month for this garbage platform, holy hell
