Heck yes man SPT made me fall in love with that game again. Amazing work by their community.

Escape from Duckov is arguable as it’s single player, as well. I’ll have to check out Zero Sievert.

The 3rd one never took itself seriously. They knew it was a last hurrah and went over the top intentionally. There’s a dubstep gun ffs. They were there for the ride not storytelling.

Yup I was thinking of another game, you’re absolutely correct.

The Cycle yes, but an extraction shooter is defined as a game you loot items that you then extract with to use in future runs or sell. Hunt and Helldivers doesn’t have that mechanic at all.

‘One of the biggest’ You mean ‘one of the only’? Extraction shooters aren’t common that I’m aware of unless I’m out of the loop. The only big one before this I was aware of was Tarkov.

Thanks!

Lots of off topic comment threads so I don’t mind adding my own: going to make the Linux dive here soon and just had a general question on VR. I recently got a mostlySteam setup (sensors / controllers) with a Vive Pro 2 headset. Overall is VR supported? Is it limited to certain headsets? I was thinking of getting a Bigscreen Beyond 2, if that makes a difference. Any info appreciated.

I’ve thought this for well over a decade. Probably longer but I’m not going to do the math. Why the fuck do we have anti monopoly laws if they’re never enforced anymore? Is it because they found loopholes? Especially with media conglomerates and horrors like Disney walking the land.

As someone who loved Tarkov but just could not keep up with the PvP, thank you for this gem! Fully intend to pick this up. Grats on the solid launch!

Appreciate the info! Thank you!

So I’ve never played the Asetto game(s) but love me some rally. Are they decent? Also is this being a separate studio going to affect things?

Holy shit how long was that? A month? Max? Hopefully this serves as an example of how fucking stupid this is.

Don’t do that. Don’t give me hope.

Didn’t know this was a thing and now I’m intrigued…

Right. This is the whole issue with these studies as the data is skewed. The only people getting into ‘wars’ are single brain cell fuckheads who can’t resist spewing rhetoric on a game store and/or associated forum. Normal users are using the platform as intended.

So some of the Steam reviews are pretty scathing on this game but I don’t understand the hate. It’s like a blend between Resident Evil and Dead Space. Basically combat isn’t primary, exploration is rewarded. The storytelling and voice acting is prime. Idk, I loved it and did a couple playthroughs without issue. New Game + makes it much more fun the second time through but even on first run as long as you’re prioritizing upgrading inventory and weap damage you shouldn’t have much issue.

It’ll probably be similar to 5 where there will be different areas but probably as separate map DLCs, at least that would be my guess. Would love to be proven wrong though.

I’m wondering if this was a case for greed or need. Were they in the hole and just trying to break even? Or did they think they had a sure thing? My issue with small indie companies taking on things like this is you could do a ton of creative marketing to drum up sales. ‘get 3 friends to buy a copy and we will give you 3 free months!’ or ‘buy the game at retail and get 6 months free’ idk, just seems dumb to shoot yourself in the foot right out the gate.

Yeah I feel like these stories are waaay too common. It’s crazy this shit is still completely unregulated. Just shows how our of touch our current political systems are.

If it ever releases. I’ve been dying for it to come out. Hope it’s worth the wait!

I make sure to comment every time this game goes on sale. This game is really well done, with a great story, and good lore finding if you’re into that. Well worth over $30 easy even with it’s age. Also if you’re an SCP fan this is the closest you have to a AAA title out there currently that does their own versions of SCP items. Again, killer game, highly recommend. Wish I could play it for the first time again.

I mean, typical boomer shit from an ignorant boomer. I’m not surprised at all.

Man I have really been riding the fence on dumping the money for Black Myth Wukong. You mind if I get your honest take? It worth full price?

The only reason I’ve heard of this game was because I bought ‘A Game About Digging a Hole’ and they VERY lightly advertised it in that game in the form of a couple posters. Probably the least invasive marketing I’ve experienced and got me interested since I enjoyed the previously mentioned title so much. Anyway, that little excerpt aside, excited to try the demo!

Oh man I hope they expand on grow home and grow up. Both fun little titles that my kids absolutely adore when they were younger.

Okay I guess, haha. Game does deserve it. I bought the game early on and it is insane how much content they added. I started up my old save and felt like I had an entirely new game to play again. It’s not ARK levels of complexity, but it’s pretty close.

At a certain complexity level my brain just shuts down. This looks amazing but also looks complicated as hell to learn. Are there decent tutorials?

I don’t think I ever saw him in something I didn’t like. Dude had chops. RIP.

Ah gotcha. That’s what I get for not reading the article.

Wasn’t the first game literally a scam?? I never dove into news about it but it seems weird they’d come around and try again.

I found out about this today and am hyped as fuck. Shipbreaker was such an amazing zen game for me, but god damn did I need more ship models. Modding tools would be great, or just more content. If not that, a sequel. Just overall excited and hope it doesn’t take 5 years for the next game to come out.

This is almost exactly what happened with me and my wife as well. I love SCPs, and this game is probably one of the best realizations we will get of that universe. So well done and the lore is easily digestible.

I’m genuinely curious: Are there actual improvement / content mods for this game or is most of it gooner shit?

Half Life Dead Space Minecraft Terraria Stardew Valley Uhhh…how do you do line breaks in comments? This looks like trash.

Oh my god I forgot about this one!! I would love to see something similar in today’s market or even an HD remake of the original.

I still mourne over what that game could have been.

It’s a shame as I’d like to see a co-op survival placed in the Zero Dawn universe but yeah, they obviously ripped off the art style, creatures, even the armors look similar.

Looks gorgeous but majority of that seemed to be cinematics. Also after the debacle that happened at launch on their previous title I may hold off or see if it releases on gamepass.

That title is cringe as fuck. There’s nothing concerning about it at all. Market saw Steam Deck’s success so they dove in. Whether they survive is dependent on if they provide good price points or justification for a higher price. Super simple.
