Zombie Samurai posted:The big knock I have against Kairo is that, as well-done as the atmosphere and design is, it still looks like a Half-Life 1 mod. All the shapes lack detail and there are only a few basic textures used throughout. However, the game makes the most of its minimalist presentation, and in the end it could be seen as more of an asset than a drawback if you can immerse yourself in it. Overall, this is a great game for the look and feel it conveys, and at $1.25 this week there's no reason not to pick it up. My biggest problem with it was that there was absolutely no point. Early on you see some images and hear some things that maybe make it out to be some anti-war piece or something but all of that gets completely dropped in favor of just puzzle after puzzle until it just kinda ends.

The game looks rad and that artwork looks like it must've been very labor intensive. And I guess Divinity:OS debuted for around the same price, correct? And did really well. It just kinda blows my mind that there could be enough of a market for isometric RPGs that it could demand that kind of price in the Steam environment.

Obsidian asked for $1.1 million to make the game and got just shy of $4 million in 30 days.

^^6 - GOd business people are so loving dumb. If it's a decent game (with a lot of word of mouth positivity) and you suddenly have a market of millions of users OF COURSE you're going to sell like hot cakes. Honestly if it's a good rpg then $40 seems like a fantastic price for it. Just because it uses a different art style than skyrim doesn't mean it's not worth just as much.

Why is $40 such an outrageous price for a brand new game by a top tier dev studio? It's not even that expensive, like at all. $40 is basically a budget game price these days.

I doubt Bayonetta 2 will ever be on anything but a Nintendo system anyway. That game's first party from what I understand.

60$ is the go-to price for AAA releases (whatever that actually means). And those have less gameplay time and are (subjectively) generally a lot less fun than a well made RPG. What's the issue, exactly? e;fb.

Drifter posted:People have been conditioned to associate AAA gaming with first- or behind-the-back- person visuals. I think it's more that the genres that sell the best are the ones that you would expect to have the highest asking price. Look at the best-sellers lists for the past however many years, they are dominated by sports games (FIFA mostly), and 1st- or 3rd-person games (either RPG or shooter). I'm cheap as gently caress so I pay more than $20 for a game about once a year or so, so $40 for a niche game seems crazy to me. But as I said above, Divinity:OS set a precedent for this so I guess it's not that surprising. King Vidiot posted:Other than Bayonetta 1 + 2, what makes the Wii U "great"?

Mario is fun, W101 looks cool, the new X game looks cool. You can get the console for relatively cheap too ($200 refurb).

There is no chance Bloodborne will get a PC release. That said, a single game isn't enough to get me to buy a PS4. At least when the Wii U was cheap and had lots of other good exclusive games when Bayonetta 2 came out.
