5 crowns for each piece, I only have 5 crowns total, gonna wait for Chell skin, maybe I will have 10 crows by then.
I have 25, but I don't think I'm getting those pants for 5. The only bad part is that the belt is on the upper section of the outfit, so if I pair it with the Jeans from the Jacket costume you can see two belts :disapproval-blob:

I have tried the demo of this game, and the animations are way better than I expected. The game will be released soon on mobile platforms.

I would have bought it on Steam, but I see the price has increased over time during Early Access, so I might as well wait for a discount.


This is the world map:

I will also not shed a single tear for developers and publishers that screw over their customers and then cry about lost sales. Piracy has been a largely solved issue on PC for many years now. If they want to risk making it in an issue again, that's their prerogative.
yep i kinda became a bit apathetic towards pretty much all the nongame releated stuff the devs/pubs share on social media ,as at one point i was quite shocked t what degree the games industry at large absolutely despises their own customers (or readers in case of jurnous) ... so i ulitimately stepped back and stopped giving a damn about who is behind the product i consume.
Cynical??? yes , but its better on my fragile mind

I'll second avoiding social media. I cannot think of any positive interaction between publisher/dev and 'gamer/consumer' that gained traction anywhere. Its just a cess pit really.

Another causality of interacting with other people behind a screen I guess.

I miss the old German silly football manager games like "Anstoss" or "Kurt"
The first football management game I ever played was on my Amstrad CPC home computer, many years ago. It looked like this:



I became a huge fan of the genre and bought pretty much every game that came out. Premier Manager, Ultimate Soccer Manager, FIFA Manager, UEFA Manager and many others until settling on Championship Manager. One of my fondest memories of my time being a university student was me and three friends pulling an all-nighter with Premier Manager and getting through a full season in ten or so hours, until 8 am.

FUCKING LOL

SO

Fortnite was just removed from apples store after they deliberately, knowingly broke the rules

AND NOW THEY ANNOUNCE THIS LITERALLY AT THE SAME TIME


Not only is this a surely, deliberately planned move, but its also absolutely insane if this flick is gonna be about George Orwelling' the Appstore

I can't

Epic's goal is to push their own storefront on mobile phones. That's all you need to know. 😉
I'm dying inside honestly, seeing people cheering for one or another mega corp is just too much in a middle of a pandemic crisis.
Epic is trying to use people who play their games to make more money and the worst thing is that said people are OK with this
I just...can't.

Epic has been preparing this for a while, using the same tactics as they did with the "30% Steam Tax" narrative to push EGS on pc. They've already sent the necessary papers to court to sue Apple. It's hilarious to be honest. I hope Apple and Google ban Fortnite from their stores permanently.

Just in case anyone is wondering how stupid and cringeworthy the marketing push epic has behind this is....



Its that stupid.
they'e clearing trying for a lower budget, Tim Sweeney instead of Ridley Scott directed version of the classic Apple 1984 commercial when the Apple II came out. Somehow, it feels as hollow as it looks

"Join the fight against @AppStore on social media with #FreeFortnite"

Like seriously, they are directly asking their playerbase of children to do their bidding

Hopefully someone smacks his glasses straight out of his face

They are. Reeks of Sweeney. Dissaproval of Epic is the reason for the disapproval emoji.

Epic, you're making it hard to say I've purchased things from your store and I accept your existence..

LOL, I was right.

Which reminds me have they (or are they going to) FREE Fornite devs from crunch ?

The irony of seeing so many closed-platform apologists suddenly angry at a closed-platform for doing what all closed-platforms do.

While I have no love for all the bullshit closed-platforms get away with at the expense of its users, Epic Games just wants to be able to win on any hardware-platform by throwing down more money. Their 88/12 revenue cut is just the disingenuous bullshit they use to appear to be on the right side.

Fuck Apple. Fuck Epic Games.
