Dang. Tales of Vesperia is looking mighty interesting at that price.
But these backlog blitz games won't finish themselves, and Vesperia isn't going anywhere!

Great JRPG with an unique protagonist. Be sure to play it in the future.

we knew it (horizon zero dawn) was being worked on for like 2 years,

Did we ? Who told you this ?

Cool looking 2.5D platformer. Takes inspiration from Tomba, Mishief Makers and Klonoa.


Has a kickstarter going:

HOLY SHIT

Did we ? Who told you this ?

We had heavy rumours which obviously turned out to be true.

Finished Amnesia Rebirth. 7.5 hours. After what I wrote (5 hours in), it got more tedious again. Overall still a good game, but also plenty of times where I thought it's boring/tedious, unfortunately.

Time to spend that Fall Guy money.

Was it better than the first one for you ?

I like all the words in the description

I don't like the word "with" because it needs context to determine whether it means "along side" or "contains".
All the other words are pretty decent though, yeah.

This November, don't buy games
Buy a Hulu sub instead

 

[LEANIJA]

No... it was prettier, for sure, but 10 years of technical advancement will do that. The mechanics are still pretty much the same, not really new there. The monsters are very much just a nuisance, like they were in Soma, the story is honestly not very great, but at least the environments are very nicely done.

Oh shit Spelunky 2 has updated to 1.13a. Long list of fixes (also includes spoilers probably?), but it definitely fixes a couple things that have torpedoed long runs I had in the past. Getting donked on the head by a hired hand dropping a rock while on a ledge is one for sure. I ate lava for that.

It also sounds like they have fixed some of the dead ends in the layouts that can be generated which is really good news because I feel like there are few of those in Dwelling which are REALLLY shitty and hard to see coming. Excited to try some runs.

 

[Wok]

Balance: Added gold on top of snap traps as bait so they're easier to spot

Mounts' hitboxes slightly widened so they should be harder to miss and easier to ride

Pets can now enter through special worlds' doors

Spelunky 2 - Patch Notes: 1.13.0b - Steam News

Patch notes 1.13.0a (W64) → 1.13.0b (W64): Fixed issue where floating with the Vlad's cape didn't let the player climb or grab on to ledges Fixed crawling down to ledges Patch notes 1.12.1e (W64) → 1.13.0a (W64): Fixed lots of blocked passages Small physics tweak that should make the player less...

Can't say I've heard any of them, aside from that russian dude. I don't recall anything regarding HZD on PC before November-December 2019.

Regardless I hope Queen's list will turn out true, some games on that list at the very least.

God of War (2018) on PC would push me to buy a RTX 3080. Seriously.

[Tizoc]

A reminder
This is what I've been saying since EGS went up

Curious how long it'll be on EGS though because 1 year of ea on EGS is...lulzy.

 

[fantomena]

guess who got a big bag of money from Tim:

Well shit

sees it's early access

Nevermind then.

 

[Tizoc]

Exalt me above these uncouth, unskilled peons for I hath cleared both challenges

Finally releasing tomorrow:

 

[fantomena]

The Humankiind demo on Stadia runs terrible and looks blurry. It's free to try for 1 week as long as you have a Google account.

 

[lashman]

Exalt me above these uncouth, unskilled peons for I hath cleared both challenges

added ... congrats

 

[fantomena]

So Steam version when the game is out of early access. Neat, no big deal then.

 

[708]

That Humankind regional pricing
As much as I'm glad that people in the studio have better job security, I wish Sega had never purchased Amplitude

 

[Tizoc]

added ... congrats

Merci au formage~

Imagine it being ea for only 3 months :v

 

[lashman]

Imagine it being ea for only 3 months :v

watch the early access magically last exactly 12 months ...

 

[Le Pertti]

watch the early access magically last exactly 12 months ...

Well most EA texts on Steam say EA is usually for one year.

 

[Stevey]

This released today

 

[gabbo]

If EGS wants to be the beta test store AND pay for that privilege, let it be so.

Finished Amnesia Rebirth. 7.5 hours. After what I wrote (5 hours in), it got more tedious again. Overall still a good game, but also plenty of times where I thought it's boring/tedious, unfortunately.

Was it more interesting/fun than A Machine for Pigs?

I tried the Humankind demo on Stadia and, well, Stadia is trash. No ultrawide support and poor IQ killed it for me.

But I'm also pretty disappointed in Humankind. Maybe I'm spoiled by the quality UI that modern Civ games have, but everything in Humankind feels buried underneath obscure icons and bad tutorials. Nothing feels organic and everything is a mess. I felt put off with how poor the game demonstrates systems to me.

However, when I actually managed to get a hang of things, I quite like some of the things they've done compared to Civilization. I'm not sold on the combat yet, mostly because I'm not sure what the hell happened, but there's promise.

I was told there'd be a survey, but I didn't get one. Not sure what happened there as I really want to lament how bad the tutorial for this game is. Though I moaned about the tutorials for other Amplitude games and they've never fixed them, so it's clearly not a priority. At this point I'm leaning towards pass on this game, which is a shame because I want a Civ killer.

 

[fspm]

I already updated to 20H2.

I disabled os updates like 15 years ago.

 

[MonthOLDpickle]

Darkest Dungeon 2 timed EGS exclusive lol

They saying they doing this for feedback during EA. It is gonna be like Hades, almost no feedback. lol.

Please don't say discord. Horrrrribblleeee.

Steam Tabletop Festis upon us !
We should celebrate in BlindRhythm multiplayer thread.

 

[Nabs]

I feel a little bad for Stadia. It reminds me of Mixer for some reason. I like the concept of Stadia, but the execution and decision making is straight trash.

 

[LEANIJA]

Yes, by a ton, but MFP was shite, so that isn't hard to beat

 

[Wok]

EGS is the Early Access Store.

Xcloud and Luna are basically what Stadia should have been. If I'm dropping $60 for a game, it sure as heck isn't going to be on a streaming service.

 

[Tizoc]

This released today

Oh snaps

I am going to buy this:

Their definition of Tabletop triggers me though.
Neverwinter Nights, really ? I mean, if we stretch it, yeah...

Salt & Sanctuary is only $3.59 on Humble right now. (With Choice) I might be weird, but I've been waiting for bundle prices for a while, and this seems like a good deal. This also means it's going to be in an upcoming bundle.

The Humble Store: Great games. Fantastic prices. Support charity.

A doomed sailor is shipwrecked on an uncharted island. In fog-shrouded valleys, where grinning, mossy corpses cling to rusted arms, shambling figures begin to stir. Beneath crumbling, salt-worn structures, labyrinthine passageways lead to unspeakable evil, long forgotten by man. Salt and...
