Look, I get they don't want to sell themselves short, but they should at least have some self awareness of what their game is and isn't. "Ground-breaking story"

OlliOlli is out. It looks awesome. And was apparently great on Vita. http://store.steampowered.com/app/274250/

John Murdoch posted:Hrrrrm... Does Trendy have any goodwill left at this point? I was halfway tempted to get it and see what they changed, then I read a few things about how it was supposedly developed for mobile and crossplay and such so maybe I will just wait and someone else can tell me if it's terrible.

The implication I get from the store page is that the terrible "hope to god you randomly get an epic tier weapon so you can even attempt the highest difficulty level" stuff has maybe been fixed? Though it also sounds like they added more guff to sink time into, too. Edit: As expected, SPUF is not pleased about it. I do feel like they should've dropped the loyalty price to $4.99 instead of $5.99. John Murdoch fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Jul 22, 2014 |

Speaking of more poo poo on Steam, there is another awful Dungeon Defenders game on the store now. Do not support this developer.

John Murdoch posted:Edit: As expected, SPUF is not pleased about it. Those boards breed a special kind of crazy. I think the funniest comment was - paraphrasing - 'I have no idea what this is, so I'm not sure if I should be angry about it. I'm leaning towards anger.' And I'm pretty sure the guy was being completely sincere, too.

pentyne posted:The official Dungeon Defenders artwork. That's one of many calls from the team leader that resulted in this expose article: http://kotaku.com/investigation-a-video-game-studio-from-hell-511872642 The guy has since been removed from any kind of direct management role, which is good. By all accounts it's a good team, but they had one incredible rear end in a top hat leading things and loving things up, so the whole studio kinda spoke up at once to get rid of him.

Awesome! posted:how do you pull up that list? I assume it's an enhanced steam thing but I can't find it. Steam - Overall Enhancement UE Does a couple things that Enhanced Steam doesn't, like bypass age checks, and lets you easily check the restrictions on the appid by clicking the number. You bring up that window by clicking on the price.

Dominic White posted:That's one of many calls from the team leader that resulted in this expose article: Was it the same guy that stated that PC Sales wouldn't be profitable? I called that out on the forums and I've yet to see a thread get closed that fast. Real note: Dungeon Defenders -- Play something else unless you have literally beat everything else on your Steam menu. It's fun for a bit but everyone is right, the latter content turns into a grind fest and the difficulty curve is a 110 degree angle. Quest for Glory is right, if you're craving it, Orcs Must Die (or hell, even Sanctum I or II) is a ton better. Lethemonster posted:Whoo I am now getting ready to play Original Sin. I've been looking forward to this for ages. Divinity 2 was really good, as was dragon commander. I wasn't a fan of Dragon Commander (granted the story was awesome but God drat did I hate the "strategy portions", but Divinity: Original Sin is absolutely awesome.

Oh hey, Uplay has the option of playing a game before it's all downloaded now. I'm sure that will make up for everything.

At this point, given how much goodwill they've lost and that they're working on a sequel, I think they'd have been further ahead offering this as a free patch to people with the earlier version. The rebalances, at least. I'm not going to give them another buck until I know they've got their act together.

Even if the company is no longer entirely toxic (Stieglitz is still around afterall...), they haven't demonstrated that they're competent, have clear direction and in tune with what people find fun.
