funny thing is that LittleDinamit's Insight shows that the game should be, approximately at 711k copies more or less
Persona 4 Golden Insight page
Is insight correct? Is the tweet rounded to 500k in case they want to make certain numbers (500k, 1M, 2M, etc...)?
We will see but this is a really interesting topic that we could discuss because, P4G on PC is something fucking nuts.
The tweet talks about players. So people who started the game.
the people who family share should be way less than people who buy games and not start the game, so 700k+ could still be right.
How's Gunfire Reborn? Game looks intriguing and has great reviews. Is it essentially a roguelike Borderlands?
CONS
A little limited, I wouldn't say barebone but yeah
Repetitive
PROS
What is there is good (shooting, rogue like elements...)
Good multiplayer game
Good let's do one or two runs a day when you don't feel like playing anything (me, now)
Cheap
GMG only has Steam keys so far, will Humble get EGS ones? who knows.
We will see, in any case, AMAZING NUMBERS
oh nice , finally out of EA
the mobile version was a bit too gacha-y ,,, might be cool , we need more pokeclones
Now that Im mostly playing a bunch of rogulike, sandbox, strategy and bulding/management games, my "ratio" of finished "one and done" games has died very much down.
Currently installed "one and done" games are P4G, Thronebreaker, Hyperdot (game pass), Minecraft Dungeons and soon Death Stranding.
My Steam collection of hand-picked "one and done" games grew from around 50-55 to 73 with the summer sale and it took me the last 7 months to get it down from around 75 to 50-55.
My effectiveness of finishing "one and done" games is really crippled when the games I wanna finish takes 10+ hours to complete. I mean, they can be absoltuely fantastic game (which P4G and Thronebreaker are and hopefully Death Stranding), but it takes me so long time anyway.

Just when I got used to Yuppie Psycho limiting your ability to save and I was trying to be economic with my save items, the game froze and I lost a good chunk of playtime.
How nice.
Limited saves is a fucking garbage mechanic.

Ugh that's dumb. I don't wanna get spoiled on ToCS3 even if they're only minor character spoilers.don't think so

Can you put the game on Ignore? That would hide it until you're ready to dive in.
Good idea but it didn't work unfortunately. Maybe I should contact the augmented steam team and kindly request that feature.
Was saying this earlier in the thread too, definitely my biggest complaint about the game, as much I still enjoyed it on the whole.
I'd say Resident Evil does it fairly well but this is not a good example.
I've been quite busy recently, but managed to find time to make a retro review about Far Cry 2:
Not gonna lie, I hated this game back in 2008, but somehow I've completely changed my mind when I replayed it this time. That's one of the reasons why I love to ocassionaly replay old games, sometimes it makes me rethink my opinion about them.

I think limiting player's ability to load and save arbitrarily can be a valid gameplay mechanic in exceptional cases. (I did not agree with that before playing Dark Souls)
But if you build such a game you absolutely need to have a very robust system in the background which stores the game state continuously and can restore it on failure.
I would play a third person action game with a character like this.
Dota 2 - Disciple's Path | Anti-Mage Persona
Trained in the lost ways by her adopted mentor the Anti-Mage, the disciple Wei has been called upon by the Tyler Estate to put her practice to the final test.www.dota2.com

I still disagree with it overall because unless the game is polished to a shine with unlimited dollars, that system will almost always have blind spots where the player is subjected to repetitive tedium. Not to mention that it takes the choice away from them with the boss/bonfire run's questionable design decision.
That being said I agree that it's a really good mechanic if you take exploration in isolation from the rest of the game. There's a satisfying and nicely-tuned feeling of pushing forward into the unknown.
Agreed. She reminds me of Alita.
I'll say if Dark Souls games had quick save I would play them!
One million copies when?funny thing is that LittleDinamit's Insight shows that the game should be, approximately at 711k copies more or less

Also it looks like it's happening I just got charged for my copy of Death Stranding!!! It should arrive in the mail hopefully by Tuesday.
If you mean the thing in the new UI not the feed where you see your friends' purchases, screenshots, achievements, etc. then yes.
Store > news (dropdown) > click the banner to go to the new Steam Labs hub > games search > click on cog next to news article > mute [game name]
If you meant the friend activity feed, then there's no way to my knowledge :/
Yuppie Psycho is a game that requires a lot of exploration, that given how fairly scarce the resources are it's very easy to either ride out much longer play sessions and risk losing a lot of progress, or on the other hand use your saves too frequently and find yourself much more constrained by the endgame potentially to a very bad degree.
I admit I used a walkthrough by the end to make sure I didn't miss anything for the multiple endings, something I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to do blind with the setup the game has.
Potentially before the end of the year, although if there's any thematic sale then it will peobably climb up a bit more.
I mean, the game is still in top 20 global top seller after the summer sale, that's a good sign.
Atlus must be shocked as heck hahaha
Pretty much. Where I take issue is when you find yourself redoing that over and over as you hit a particularly difficult wall. That's where I wish I could just quick save a little further ahead.
I bought my CPU from Amazon last year and I'm currently calling in warranty, because my CPU started acting weird. I called the german Amazon support, which told me that I'll receive an email with further instructions.
1.) The email is in englisch, which isn't a big problem for me. But the email should be in german. That's common sense.
2.) They are trying to squeeze out. Claiming AMD is insisting on taking over support for processors.
Afaik, EU law guarantees me two year of legal guarantee. It is binding to the trader and not the manufacturer.
In short: I'm currently hanging in the support hotline because I need to calmly explain to Amazon that EU law is binding.
How can Amazon, suddenly, forget how warranty works over here?
Those greedy, slippery *

500k for P4G in only 3 weeks time is incredible. It had to compete with so many other new steam games in June too.
Microsoft and EA returning to Steam couldn't have come at a better time. These sales numbers and estimates really hammer home the point that a great many people do in fact think that a service is much more than "just a launcher".
I'm deeply impressed. The game is from 2016, was heavily discounted on Origin and it still managed to sell 650k copies on Steam?
That's bonkers!
Alexandros is right. This kind of stuff is sending the message that consumer choice exists and is relevant.

if anything - this only proves pc players are happy to wait for the games to appear on their platform of choice ... no matter how long it takes
