Looks how I remember the original (I know it's a huge difference side by side though). Not particularly next-gen like though, things like blood and guts and body juices seem to use pretty old school visual effects that don't really match the quality of some models and environments and what not, they don't fit in (sprites?).
see? i know how to grab your attention, haha
Yeah, I understand that the 6 year thing is from the first game's launch. That part in isolation isn't that surprising, no. It's when you put it alongside a proper Cyberpunk sequel and a new IP and take into account the studio's recent history that I'm starting to
.I don't believe for one second that they can work on all of these things in parallel without things going massively off the rails lol.
Seems like Humble screwed up regarding Monster Train. According to Steamgifts.com forums you only get the base game
Edit: They are investigating it

Arcade genres, like the physical locations they were mostly played at, seem to be a bit of a dying form, especially in terms of public interest.
It's too bad, because there are still quite a few talented developers devoted to these "niche" genres, who sadly struggle to gain visibility.
Give them a look once in while, wishlist them, check them out.
Quite a few Japanese indie developers now make the PC their main "home", and any added interest and sales does make a difference.
I'll post about a couple of titles that I rate very highly, which hopefully will be of interest to someone.
I'll start with NeverAwake, launched a few days ago (the launch discount is active until tomorrow).
It's a twin-stick shooter/shmup with a gorgeous style, an insanely good soundtrack (that works even disconnected from the game), a rather generous amount of content (80+ stages), a versatile power-up system, and surprisingly for the genre, a rather intriguing storyline (with multiple endings!).
I described it to someone as: "it's like Tim Burton made a twin-stick shooter, and asked Plaid to do the soundtrack". I think that's a great description.
There's a demo available on Steam, so do consider checking it out.

Backtracking didn't bother me at all in Dead Space for some reason. I've replayed the original game last year and enjoyed it a lot!
The atmosphere and combat mechanics were great, but I found the mission/level/encounter design to be awfully repetitive; DS2 was a big improvement in that regard, even if it was less survival horror and more action-horror. hope the remake isn't too faithful, but my expectations are definitely tempered
Yeah, the mission design was really boring for me, but the atmos, combat and level design was great.
Me when playing Riders Republic
Yeah, gonna uninstall it soon, only reason Im playing it is because my free Ubi+ sub lapses on oct 10th.

Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck is that a weird-ass mech?!
I cannot imagine a more fitting genre for Consumer Softproducts to tackle than mecha. There is so much that could be done at the intersection of common mecha themes and the Cruelty Squad aesthetic. Another masterpiece incoming.
That is a really strong choice bundle. I didn't even know a new Disciples game came out last year wtf
My collector's edition of A Short Hike arrived! Much sooner than expected too, international shipping is usually a pain. The box is beautiful. Can't wait to open it after work.
Eh just noticed the side of the box reads "A Short Hike - Collectors Edition". Who ate the apostrophe?

Chaos Head is cursed.
Yes it was banned from Steam but the English text also has issues as well

The entire Sci;Adv series in the west has been known to have problems in one way or another. Can't speak for the console ports, but on PC we had a multitude of issues ranging from simple typos right up to badly edited/localised CGs. This has been happening since the original Steins;Gate.
We're lucky that there's a dedicated group that specialised in fixing these games.
Finally decided on a gaming mug to buy, ordered this one!
reminds me of that old game from the 90s, "Operation: Inner Space" (not to be confused with "InnerSpace", a game from the 2010s)
That game similiarly takes place within a PC. Interestingly, that company still sells the game, for the same price (25$) and apparently exclusively via their own website ( Software Dynamic, home of Inner Space, Magic and After Dark ) and I love that their FAQ states that you might need DOSBox+Windows 3.1 to get it to run, and "If all else fails, any torrent site would allow you to get a copy of Windows 3.1."
I reviewed Liberation when it came out and I really liked it:
DISCIPLES: LIBERATION - Ragequit.gr
The hallowed Disciples series returns with a fresh new entry. Was it worth the wait? Read on and find out!
ragequit.gr
If anyone has questions about the game, feel free to ask.
I hope SC announces soon where they'll launch the PC version. I want to play it on the Deck too, and it seems easier to just boot up Heroic than messing around with Yuzu.
This is another reason to stay on PC. Applying the excellent patches by Committee of Zero that make things far more readable in English is super easy to apply.

We should be seeing Crysis 2/3 Remastered on Steam shortly right? It says they released 10/15 on EGS last year.

Releasing next week!
Intel GPUs, to sum it up drivers problems and performance all over the place.
I think this is not a terrible start.
There's clearly some major problems with drivers. I haven't watched this video, but in Ars' review, there's cases where going from 4K to 1440p only improved peformance for some titles ( I think it was GTA V) by maybe 5%. In other words, despite clearly reducing required workload for the GPU by a ton, there's barely any improvements. Clearly the driver has to do something different for these games to make them run decent on Arc cards. And from what I understand, this is actually not unusual with GPU drivers. PC games at times do very strange things and Nvidia and AMD have just had years to deal with all this stuff. That's why you get these monthly updates by Nvidia providing "game ready" drivers.
I think if Intel is willing to hire a large team to keep chipping at this problem and improve drivers, I think they can get to a decent spot in maybe 3 or 5 years.
