That is true, it's just very infrequent. And there are a few who will Terry Hunt but not play casual/ranked.

Rebel Galaxy Outlaw comes out on Tuesday and it might finally get me to install that goddamn Epic launcher. gently caress.

I got Age of Wonders: Planetfall and I don't like it. The UI is bad and it probably needs a good round of tweaking.

I am still loving around with Dragon Quest Builders 2. I probably have 20 hours in by this point and i am wrapping up the first of three islands. The game keeps the charm of all of the monsters and adds a pretty cool crafting system and simple arpg type combat.

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
So I've pretty much just used my switch as my travel gaming platform and never have it docked to a TV.

Just hooked it up to my 55 inch OLED TV and drat does BOTW look good. I mean it looks good handheld but it's definitely impressive on a good TV.

Yeah tower sucks. When I play with my buddies they back out any time tower or favela pop up. (I like the paper house feel of favela, personally)

Two matches in a row, but the point stands. Also the fact that Trout immediately Fuzed the hostage the next round after your ban and received the same punishment is interesting. And funny.

I got Star Valor because I was disappointed in AoW:Planetfall for 15 bucks. It’s a fun, simple space game that scratches that grinding itch. As I typically do, I found it and it got its hooks into me towards the end of the weekend on a day I actually have to do things.

It shouldn't effect console releases according to GRO's faq on the subject. It'll be exclusive to the epic store for a full year, though. Epic is leeching from Steam by offering developers a bigger slice of the pie (88% vs Steam's 70%) so I can't blame people for going the exclusive route.

Yeah I can't fault devs for going for the bigger cut but considering how lovely Epic's been with their launcher (they just announced no preloads for BL3 today) and everything else, I'm fine waiting for console or a steam release.

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
There isn't a single reason for me make a purchase on the epic game store. Steam has been around for well over a decade, has better features plus the rest of my gaming library.

Until other platforms have something better to offer than steam, I have no reason to bother buying anything outside of Steam.

Plus paying for games to just be on anything but Steam is a lovely business practice and not one I'm willing to support.

The epic game store can go gently caress itself. I'll just wait for the steam release.

I like Microsoft’s new monthly pass thing. It’s $5 a month and you get a ton of good games with it. Reminds me of that old rear end gaming Netflix service that was out like 12 years ago.
