Does it have ALL the DLC at least? e: Goat Sim Bundle on Steam is $28 with bundle discount, so that's not terribly off.

100YrsofAttitude posted:Second is Goat simulator fun and for how long? Or is it just a gimmicky physics simulator? The idea is dumb but I appreciate it and it seems to have the fun open world of San Andreas. It’s totally fun. It’s stupid and wonky and dumb as a bag of hair, but it’s basically Tony Hawk: The Goat. I bought it years ago on the ps3. Your mileage may vary, and I haven’t played it in years but it’s definitely good for a larf. Edit: 30$?!? gently caress no. I mean, for five or maybe ten sure.

Frankston posted:Oh it's a card game? That's a dampener. Looking through the press release it's more of a deck builder type of game.  Which is fine, I've played a few with board gaming friends, so I'm at least familiar with the genre.

Gwyrgyn Blood posted:It's an Action/RPG/Puzzle/Platformer, and also sort of a Quintet fan game. The combat is pretty neat, it's a super fast mix of melee and ranged combat, with parries and element juggling and interaction with the environment. It's got a lot of that super fast pacing and heavily skill based gameplay of older Ys games. There's a skill tree to work through as well, mainly it serves as a way to customize your combat special attacks though. Yeah that may be a bit much. Thank you though. It sounds cool, but it feels like it should've stuck to one thing. Your description reminds me a bit of HLD which I adored, but I feel like it'll be a bit more half-baked compared to that. Tall Tale Teller posted:It’s totally fun. Hm. Ok. And how much time did you put into it? 30 bucks is a lot. Though it does come with all the DLC.

I would make fun of everyone who buys goat simulator for switch for $30 bucks in 2019 but it will end up being the best selling version and Id look the fool.

I'll wait for a sale. I'm sure it'll come. You've sold me. There needs to be more "Be an Animal" game. I really liked Shelter, simplistic as it was. Where's my Goose Game?

Ignite Memories posted:what is good about it? I like hollow knight but it feels like a bit of a slog sometimes I preferred the exploration and movement and it has basically zero focus on boss fights, which were far and away my least-favorite parts of HK. HK is more of a combat platformer where SD2 is more of a chill poke around and explore new places game (until you get the last movement upgrade and it turns into a rollicking 2D spider man game). It's map is probably half the size of HK but the game is a quarter as long, which was a plus for me.

Hyper Crab Tank posted:We announced it Congratulations! Always nice to see hardworking goons have success. I might pick your brain after your lips have loosened about the card game aspect. I've been working on a hobby side project that'll probably never see the light of day and I realized that deck-building combat would be perfect for it. Only to discover that that's now in vogue and I'm late to the party. But I still enjoy giving it thought and implementation. Mons Hubris posted:I like Dominion (the card game), would I like Slay The Spire? If you're a casual Dominion fan, then definitely. But if you're serious and opinionated about deck builders, possibly not. One thing that Dominion nailed, partially by accident, that never seems to be replicated is its symmetry with near-perfect knowledge. When the kingdom piles are laid out you know exactly what will be available for the duration of the game and can begin planning your strategy immediately. More importantly, you also know your opponent has this same knowledge, so you can begin planning your own plans to counter their plans or contingencies if it looks like they're going down a certain route. Almost every other deck builder I've played misses out on that. They add a face-down card pool that has more variety in it from which a limited number of cards are temporarily available, with limited (if any) knowledge about what's coming next. This seems exciting at first, as there's an element of surprise, more randomization (which is sometimes assumed to be more replayability), and a greater variety of cards available. But what it ends up doing is restricting the range of significant and informed decisions you can make while playing. It's impractical to plan against things that might come up with a 1/60 chance -- instead you just react locally to what's available in the short term. It ends up gutting a lot of the strategy and deep interaction between combatants. Slay the Spire does a number of clever things since it realizes that it's not a card game but a computer game that uses card abstractions. The enemies don't use cards but they do telegraph their next actions, which is deep enough information for the style of game it is, and a number of cards do cool things that would be infeasible or inconvenient with paper cards (such as altering their costs based on a number of temporary effects). But it falls prey to the supply pile problem most non-Dominion deck builders have -- you don't know which cards will be made available to you except in small immediate-decision situations where three to six cards might be presented to you. Slay the Spire is a very compelling experience, but merely a decent game. The draw comes from the decks you almost could've made had you gotten the right cards, not the things you actually did do while chasing that dragon.
