But does the texture artist need to talk to the modelers? Of course. Do they need to talk to people in sound design? Maybe. What about game engine and programming? Maybe. What about writers? Maybe.
The fact is, you’d probably have a better product at the end of the day if everyone were able to coordinate their efforts.
This is… A whole lot of games.
I did love tunic, fantastic game, easily worth that price on its own.
I’ve never played cook serve delicious, but it’s been on my radar. I’ll have to give this a shot. Heh, there are some tabletop games and rulesets on this list, could be some hidden gems in there. Honestly, this is a big enough bundle to be worth just buying on principle, and sorting it out later. So what if I don’t end up playing 400 of these titles, if I end up liking 10, that’s a fabulous deal, and all for charity!
I suppose that would be unfortunate. But it hardly matters in the long run. I mean, it might be better. I believe the game is still available for purchase as an “early access” title, despite the unfinished state and completely halted development.
It would certainly be better to not list it at all than to imply that it will eventually be finished and allow people to continue purchasing it.
I would argue that that’s the optional game mechanic.
The main game mechanic is that it’s a Zelda-like hack and slash (with some more souls-like bosses). The secondary game mechanic is its secret puzzle system and then finally if you get through all that, there’s still this language you can decipher to solve the very last puzzle.
I’m a bit curious too. My theory is that it may have come down to licensing and trademark issue. Since the game used actual car brands and their logos and such, they may have had some agreement over their usage and perhaps the period of that agreement ended. It’s worth noting that the game was available from several different stores, and it became unavailable everywhere as far as I know.
No, you need to install them as well. It’ll work as long as it’s installed, but after they’re delisted, I don’t think steam can even distribute them.
I know I have at least one game “grid: race driver” that was delisted from steam, at some point I must have uninstalled it, and now I can’t download it, it doesn’t even show up in my library. I’ve been trying like hell to find a way to play it, but even pirated versions are being difficult.
Edit: judging from comments and downvotes, apparently this is rare? But it does definitely happen, I’m not making this example up. And I don’t know how you could predict whether a game will just be unavailable for purchase or totally disappear…
Why isn’t it targeted at the entire fanbase?
Is that a serious question? Because the answer is obvious…
Ok, let me start out by saying I have an 8 year old, and he fucking loves Minecraft. And hey, I played the game a bunch back when it was in beta and I was like 25. But I did not love the game the way that he loves the game… He’s obsessive about Minecraft, some days it’s all he talks about. How many adults do you know like that?
And here’s the real question, when’s the last time you bought Minecraft merch for yourself? Because my kid has a Minecraft lunchbox, a Minecraft hoody, a Minecraft Lego set, some Minecraft figurines, and of course the Minecraft sheets and PJs.
TIL, the threadiverse has a lot of .zip communities.
I wonder if they’ll be larger after I unpack them?
