I’d say Deep Rock Galactic has a lot of the same appeal, and thas doing pretty well. Though it also made the bold and controversial decision of actually innovating and creating something new, rather than sticking as close to the original as possible.

Looks like Sony is after their own Back 4 Blood.

Your mistake is thinking it’s a sandbox game. In my opinion, it’s barely even a survival game.

Sure, over the years they have added a lot of systems, but as you noticed, they’re all pretty shallow, and on top of that, have basically no interaction with each other.

Games as a Service wasn’t even the fatal flaw here. Brawlhalla is another platform fighter that is doing just fine off that model. The dev team for MultiVersus just couldn’t handle the project, for one reason or another.

A lot of speculation on the specifics of what went wrong, plenty of players looking for who to blame, but there will probably never be any reliable or concrete info on what exactly happened.

This game leaves behind a legacy of extremely funny poor decisions and mistakes, culminating in becoming one of the few games that got to be shut down twice.

Aye but the ten year run of marketing the game during development was probably pretty nice.

10 years ago Michaelsoft launched their own VR headset, which was such a flop you probably don’t even know it happened.

See, I played the Witcher 3, and did not experience any Sex Scenes, because I wanted to kill monsters, not have sex. So I do not expect my experience with The Witcher 4 to be any different.

If only that was what Cyberpunk actually got.

“Everyone I don’t like is a fascist!”

It’s Multiplayer. Odds are those aren’t characters as much as they are alternative player-avatars.

Star Citizen has Deadlines? Since when?

It’s such a shame too, because on paper, everything they’ve added should make it one of the greatest games ever. Instead, every 3 months they add a new Mechanic that will entertain you for 20 minutes, but doesn’t meaningful interact with any other system they added.

Capcom has been pretty consistent.

But their primary networking plugin is?

CS2 is top of the pile, there is very little that can fairly be compared to it.

Wait until you learn what engine they’re using and who they pay royalties to.

It’s a shame that once again they have added a mechanic that does not utilize in any meaningful way the procedural generation of the game.

You can freely download old versions of steam games. You used to be able to do it through the steam console, but now you have to use an external application.

Edit: you can still do it through the Steam Console.

I wouldn’t put Blasphemous in the same category as Gris or Monument Valley, but it might technically be in the same category as Neva. However, jn my opinion, that game sucks. I’d recommend Hollow Knight above it.

This is what trying to mod Cyberpunk 2077 is like. Is some modicum of new gameplay too much to ask?

At least three, as far as I can tell. Probably more.

“Probably”? I think the only advertisement I’ve ever seen from Valve was for Half Life: Alyx when it came out a few years ago. Not exactly brainwashing kids

Additionally, kids are not the largest group on steam. According to Statistica’s Consumer Insights Global Survey, the majority of users are 30-39, with the next largest group being 20-29 https://www.statista.com/forecasts/1242344/steam-us-user-share-by-age

Well, they’ve accidentally made a really easy workaround, then. Just download the day one depot and you can play without Denuvo.

So it’s a horror game that only works in houses with modern appliances.

I didn’t see it mentioned here, but if you used their adware services they would waive the fees.

Reckon a lot more people are playing on Gamepass then on Steam.

You could play the hit 2007 class-based shooter Team Fortress 2

I’ve always found The Crossroads to not be the best opening. If you can get through Greenpath, I think the game will stick with you.

Batteries.

The battery tastes better.
