BAWWW-UNH!
AFAIK they stopped putting Dark Souls games on sale when they had to disable the pc multiplayer (because of a serious vulnerability). I hear they fixed it recently (for some games), so maybe the good sales will follow.

This is incredible news as the reason why Riven hasn't had a remaster up to this point is because the entire source code was lost. So this would be a total ground-up remake.

The aformentioned Myst remake was a full re-do in Unreal Engine 4, this is probably much along the same lines since their FAQ mentions that you'll be able to walk around freely in 3D space.

Wonder if they'll get new actors then, it would be a shame to lose Gehn's performance even if it was such a small part of the game.

The Myst remake did use 3D actors rather than live action, so it could be possible that they'll use his performance for the VA, if they have it in storage in a decent quality.

Although, they're probably aware the 3D actors weren't that well received, but I would expect them to look better in this.

The full title "Riven: The Sequel to Myst" also being five words long is another stroke of brilliance.

Planet Zoo is good and extremely sandboxey on the "sandbox" mode where you have infinite money and access to whatever animals you want. On the campaign mode, it's really difficult. There's just not much financial margin for allowing many inefficiencies, and usually the creative and fun ideas that look really cool in your zoo also end up being inefficient. I don't know if you've been playing it but I would not recommend any modes other than sandbox.

I played like 12 hours this weekend, game hooked directly into my brain perfectly. I've been doing franchise mode and haven't had money issues past the beginning (I watched a tutorial on how to start a zoo and it worked well), and am making a profit pretty well so far. If it ends up being annoying to keep going I'll switch over to sandbox mode though.

there's a 0% chance cruelty squad-like doesn't become a genre within four to eight years. just way too much excess gaming value for a single game. transactionally, it's an inevitability.

Shouldn't we, as a player, be a judge of character of the rats rather than the devs manipulating our judgements of rats' moral value?

I somehow missed that there’s a(n already successful) Kickstarter for an official sequel to Duelyst. That was a cool rear end game - I hope the new team is more successful in keeping it alive.
