Bumhead posted:I wonder how much self awareness there is amongst dev teams when working on games like Redfall. It's been a while but I remember an article about exactly this and the dev said it was a crushing frustrating experience but all they could do was plug away at their part and try to put out something decent. It's probably not much different from any large software project. It may be a shitshow but having one's name behind a big release counts for something.

Quick q about Humble Choice since this is my first time using it: Do I have to use the codes of the current month's games before it rolls over into the next month? As in, do I need to unveil the codes and copy them down somewhere before it rolls over? Also on a very related note, if anyone wants Artelier fucked around with this message at 11:44 on May 2, 2023 |

Also choice just dumps the games into your humble library iirc, so they're there forever.

So sad hearing and seeing all the reports about Redfall, I was still cautiously looking forward to it. For me, Deathloop was enjoyable and good to great game let down by the ending but seems like Redfall won't even be that.

Ciaphas posted:Anyone have any advice for getting through Chapter 4 of Loop Hero? I can't seem to strike a good balance between having too many monsters on the field & getting killed by attrition, and too few monsters & not getting enough gear to keep up with the loop level (usually ending in suicide-by-boss). Check out the guides on Steam titled "[Warrior/Rogue/Necromancer] Guide for Infinite Loops", when I got stuck they highlighted some really good strats that helped me beat the game. The Warrior one felt very reliable, if I remember right.

There has been exceptions to that but it usually says if there is any kind of time limit in the key redemption page. Just check in there and if you don't see any message in there then you are safe.

I just wish companies would stop releasing the most boring rear end "skill trees" in the world. Why is that so hard.

While that one is obviously fake if you read it I'm sure the real one won't be much better. There's no fixing that game, it feels like it's 12 years old already.

Omi no Kami posted:How is Symphony of War? Someone described it to me as Fire Emblem With Armies, which sounds like exactly my thing, but the art is so loving terrible I'm really having trouble even wishlisting it. Is it like Siralim, where the godawful looks conceal rad-tastic mechanics? Or should I give it a pass and go play more Fire Emblem instead? Others have already touched on the weird art and the UI can be annoying also, but other than that I totally loved it. One of like only 3 games last year that pulled me in enough to actually finish it. The story is campy and cheesy but still fun. Definitely recommend.

Isn't that copypasted from the EA one? Apart from the bit about id, obviously.

I went to see if there was anything that can fill the itch for Ogre Battle 64 and saw this recommended. I click on the steam page and the video autoplayed and I saw the giant woman, the butt, then laughed and closed the page.

Depends on the game? I would imagine Blizzard games do way better on PC.

Both of the games I’ve played this year that went for 70 USD outside of gamepass have been categorically half-finished garbage (redfall and wild hearts), and I don’t say that kind of thing about games I play almost ever. Not going to try to extrapolate two cases into a pattern but it’s funny that the increased price tag has only lined up with comically low quality in my experience. I do not know what happened at arkane but my take that they’ve never made a bad game has finally been upended. what happened over there?

I saw someone else say this ITT yesterday, I don't think it's accurate -- I also got a "Downloading" screen for another 90 GB when I launched last night, but it was going at like 10x my peak download speeds (400MB on Xbox app instead of 40MB on Steam/Xbox), I suspect it was actually just decrypting the files and the verbiage on the UI wasn't reflecting that. I think steam usually needs to do this too for pre-orders, just that they explain what's happening correctly

Rocksteady's game will probably get trashed as bad. But in a way this is good advertisment for Game pass, since the game is bad you don't lose anything you can go check Dishonored or Prey.

Yeah this was definitely it and I didn't realize it until you made a post about it, I have fast internet but it finished in a couple minutes so it was definitely going faster than a download would have so it must have been decrypting.
