yeah, probably not

Division 2 seems to have had the opposite trajectory of Div 1, which started off badly with many complaints, bugs and so on but kept improving and growing. Div 2 got great reviews, I was having fun, everyone was having fun, and then pfffff......
It's certainly not because of no Steam but their financial numbers they reported a short while ago were disappointing and they delayed all upcoming games. Something like that can quickly lead to thinking about exploiting all available revenue sources including going back to the ones that go abandoned.
Oooh yeah, I forgot they sold the game on Steam for a while too before it came out.

News - Dangen Entertainment Allegedly Not Paying Indie Devs?
Posted this on Era, but figured it was worth a nod here too. --- So... this appears to be developing, but at least one Indie developer, and allegedly others, aren't being paid royalties for their games published by Dangen Entertainment. A post went up on r/games earlier today, but also the...

Yeah, they'll probably be back sooner or later. I just meant that if one company was going to stay away then my money would be on them. But it would be kind of amazing if even Ubi came crawling back as soon as they're allowed to. It would really speak volumes about how the EGS is performing.

How did you guys like Gears 5? Thinking about buying it with a friend.
Any other co-op stuff to do after the main story? Ultimate edition is just multiplayer DLC right?

That's so disappointing about Dangen, they're publishing Renaine which I was looking forward to.
I liked it, it didn't blow my mind or anything (but to be honest, few games do nowadays). You can do Horde and the new Escape mode in co-op.

I literally rather buy ubi games (at a discount ofc) on xbox rather than mess with uplay if only because they dont support paypal here

I love you too guys.

So what is the status with GOG 2.0?
Has it been improving? Since I have not really heard many of you talking about it.
Also I feel sorry for the FFXV dude. I remember him saying in this one video about Half life and how the Half Life team gave him some stuff, I didn't think they existed.

My guess is that Ubi is going to bank on the next Assassin's Creed to do well and if that doesn't set the world on fire sales wise for PC I could see them coming back to Steam soon after.
I've enjoyed what I've played of it quite a bit. Though I do agree with Kurt Russell and it does have its flaws. Still a pretty good one and worth getting eventually though. Especially for co-op!

yeah, that's possible ... i definitely don't see the next AssCreed coming to steam any time soon (sadly, since i won't be able to play it)
I unfollowed Atlus on social networks. They hyping up the release date of a re release is just an insult to the intelligence of their fan base.
I should work on finishing The Outer Worlds today. Then again, I just finished my last playthrough obtaining the most boring, filler looking quest. Vague but clear spoiler for those that have played the game :
It involves armors.
Not only that but isn't the game out already in Japan? I could be wrong but they are making it sound like there is "new news" asides from things like if there will be a CE and when the release date is I can't think of why else people would be excited.
By the way up until this point this is the type of VR stuff that people have been seeing
So these are the type of stuff people are being exposed to and I guess this is also what they don't want even though people say good things about them (these are mainly PSVR stuff and not SteamVR/Oculus)
Oclulus stuff
And now I guess this is what is changing some people minds
I will try to buy a PSVR and Valve Index at some point
sooner, as soon as 2020.
Valve taking seriously PR is the best, it was about time, damn.

It was not the. Case last year. I guess this could potentially lead to more indie games getting recognized in general.

In the past I would have argued that the date didn't matter since not everyone plays a game on it's release date and about what's the game you liked the most in the year.
I thought Wolfenstein 2 was supposed to be short? I'm glad it's longer than I thought it would be, having a blast with it!
I guess this is an answer for all the complains from last year about games not releasing last year winning the awards, I can understand this move, tbh, not that I like it but well, it happens.

So I played about 1.5 hours of Blands 3 via Xbox Gold Free Weekend and the game is basically more Borderlands with better graphics and new weapons, the gunplay feels good.
Far from as big leap from Blands 1 to Blands 2. Feels like Blands 2.5.

So is MetaSteam excited for CitizenCon today?
Squadron42 is like the final piece of big vaporware remaining in the industry.
Shenmue 3 and Last guardian came out before it. Even FF7remake and a new Half-Life will get to see the light of day before Squadron 42 ffs.
Unless ofc they announce today its coming before March lol.

I mentioned this before and it starts to piss me off. Since around Tuesday i have to hit reload A LOT to see all comments in Steam's discussion threads. Often only just the first comment is displayed. Does it work fine for you guys?

I haven't really followed development.
I pre-registered for the announcement of the game (so I even got some in-game items as a VIP pass holder or whatever), and I pre-ordered Star Citizen as soon as it was up (before the Kickstarter).
But, this project has been such a mess in terms of how it is being ran, missed dates, and whatnot (nothing new for a Chris Roberts project
) I haven't even attempted to keep up with it.When it's out, I'll play it.
They do these big events, sell people some merchandise and in-game cosmetics, announce dates, and then when the time comes, the content is delayed by a year or two.
I really have to try to play what's available one of these days (I'm yet to).
Remind me again, Squadron 42 is supposed to come out when (their latest date)?
It happens to me as well.
And, worse, I have some page corruption on the store pages, where I frequently place a cursor on something, and it's selecting something well above or below it.
One of the Steam client options (activate GPU something) fixed things for me, but then a few games (like SF V) ran very poorly because of it, so I had to go back to have that off.

yeah, kinda
it's always cool to see the new in-game videosyeah, it sometimes does that for me as well ... dunno why
they're probably working on something
They said 2020 late last year. But who knows. They put out a really great trailer for it too.
I don't follow any of it at all tbh and only booted up the thing a few times over the years to test out new hardware. Still love to watch their info and video dumps every year. Hopefully we see some good stuff soon.

So I guess the 1991 poll can best be summed up as GOTY Island 2: Mario’s Revenge. I think I’m gonna do things this way: I’ll only add the games that I think are most likely to get votes to the poll. The rest of the games will be listed below in honorable mentions. If you want to vote for one of...

Just had a thought, that maybe valve's new found outwardness is thanks to Campo santo? They were always good at stuff like that.
OP
But even the Campo team had been radio silent since they were acquired, until Remo posted about the website earlier this week. I want to believe they might cause a seachange in how Valve does media/community relations, but I doubt it (give me Idle Thumbs Gaben dammit! and all if forgiven)
This could be interesting.
