Nevermind then! I don't really know about the highlight thread. Also, if people knew about the game already, then obviously it isn't part of the embargos.
Still, it's more space sims new which I find always worthy
.
Oh god little OT but apparently Wii U was not stable enough.
Yo
Remember that game that's being delisted soon?
Well it utilize a rtwp system but its COMBAT system? Like the actual attacks you inflict?
They're reminiscent of Legend of Legaia on PSOne
You could chain special attacks with each other as their inputs lapped and this game has a similar system.
I'm only like 15 mins. in but I'm quite interested more with it now

Damn, some really awesome ship designs in this. Need to check this game out in the future.
I really loved X2 - the Threat and then X3 but then they seems to go for a different type of game for the next one (was it X-rebirth?) and it just didnt do it for me.
Is X4 a return to the old style of space sim?

it's out
Maquette
Maquette is a first-person recursive puzzle game that takes you into a world where every building, plant, and object are simultaneously tiny and staggeringly huge. Maquette makes it possible by twisting the world into itself recursively in an MC Escher-esque fashion.
Head to the center of the world and you'll feel like a giant, towering over buildings and walls. But venture further out, and start to feel small as things get larger and larger - to the point where cracks in the ground become chasms.
In Maquette you will explore the scales of everyday problems in a modern-day love story. Where sometimes the smallest of issues can become insurmountable obstacles.
That's nothing:

I have no idea, sorry. X4 didn't really release in a good state and since it fell off my radar. I do know that they have cockpits again, which is great, but beyond that you'd probably be better served by going to the subreddit.
There's a new system update for... Wii U
Nintendo has today released a new firmware update for... the Wii U.

Why, evidently ! She has to make lubricant in order to put on her thigh high
Ahhh, yeah. I saw a notification about that last night. I wonder what they changed? I know people like to hate on it but i had some great times with my Wii U games. Of course, i would say that purely because of Xenoblade Chronicles X.There's a new system update for... Wii U

leave it to Epic to jump in on a trend months past its peak.
Their blog post is 503'ing. Great start, definitely not indicative of things to come.
Thank god for epic saving these unknown games and starving devs.
I mean, E**c buying studios is always shit, and its - like Rocket League - a clear attempt to directly buy successful games off of Steam. Just after the fact, and after the fad. I mean, the game was fun for a while, sure, but it surely also didnt last, eh?

Anyway the Humble Monthly is out and its indeed the Standard Edition of Control, choice of a Steam or EGS key.
Also:
EXTRA INFORMATION
NOTE: When redeeming Control via Steam key, users may see Control Ultimate Edition in their Steam library and during installation. Please disregard the Ultimate Edition title as the Steam key will only grant Control Standard Edition. For more information, please visit: https://support.505games.com/hc/en-us/sections/360005474899
cool.
Does this mean Fall Guys will be removed from Steam store in the future?
This part of their FAQ made me burst out laughing for two reasons.
1. This tweet to show Tim Sweeney is a fan
2. "Love Fall Guys" - but you still can't buy it on the EGS store.
They say it will stay on Steam in the FAQ.
OP
Remember that in this case Devolver is the one who decides what happens with the game as they are the publisher.
If you dont need it could I have it
I had money for the choice but my bank charged a monthly service fee yesterday and swiped my humble funds so screw me I guess lmao
I can't state how much I hate openings like this, where they're basically .jpgs that move slightly.One more thing regarding Varnir -- the budget aspect seems particularly egregious in this one. A lot of "cutscenes" are basically a background image with a free-VN-tier fullscreen effect and badly-balanced sound effect on top of them. The only assets that had any money put into them are the character 3D and 2D models, and so naturally they are used all the time -- including the janky opening sequence which just pans around barely-animated images and seems to be the only video in the game.
I don't really mind any of that much (both in general and especially since I paid something like 7€ for the game), but it reminds me more of the very first release of the first Neptunia game rather than more recent ones which always felt like they had at least a tiny bit more wiggle room in their budget.
Edit: oh, and I almost forgot -- it does have a "4k native" rendering option which actually does 4k native rendering, but its implementation is Durante-dll-mod-ca-2011 tier, resulting in 1-pixel-borders to the right and bottom in some transitions
They suck, might as well not put anything.
The only strategic reason I can think of to buy Fall Guys is to buy the users, ie force them to make an Epic account and use the EGS to launch the game down the line. I'm with lash.
Sweeney seems to be specifically targeting indie studios with big multiplayer hits.
Fall Guys lasted me 2 weeks before I got bored of it, it remains uninstalled for me
Nice to see good guy epic giving these small indie devs a platform to get popular though

Devolver is gonna take whatever check it takes to delist it from Steam. It's gonna happen.

Legend of Legaia via Duckstation
Oddly enough, and I don't know if this is due to the emulator, but there are a few instances where the game jumps to actual 60 FPS.

So Epic have changed their strategy for 2021. Instead of going for nearly complete AA indie games to buy to keep from Steam they are now buying well established games with a built-in huge audience. Way to go EGS, that's how you support the little devs. Fucking lol.
Seems the tactic is moving away from timed exclusivity to "1st party" exclusives. That's fair enough imo.
oh well, more freebies on EGS
I will lose my shit if "The Good Life" goes EGSclusive. Please, Swery, say it ain't so.
OP
I don't really have a problem with full exclusives on Epic.
Hey long as these games are multi store, it's fine.
Tohu is on GOG which is where I prefer getting it on for example.
However, if EGS makes such indie games exclusive and remove purchasing from other stores, in an attempt to attract buyers
I'ma stick with the first line, because I am an optimist, and just hope these indie devs get paid.
