Lovely Planet is an extrmeely good game that wears its influences on its sleeve. It's not rly trying to "pass" as anything. Definitely [play it

Sleeveless posted:Their cut they take for game sales is about half of what Steam charges, which isn't actually enough to even cover the costs of running the store front. Its unsustainable in the long term but in the short term it's exactly the kind of thing that makes developers see dollar signs and switch over and sing their praises and think that the corporation is their friend, just like all the Uber drivers who exalted how much better working there was than working for taxi companies until Uber slashed their pay as soon as they destroyed the competition. what makes u think that their cut is unsustainable? U imagine Steam is making a minimal profit on their store-front? Even when Epic has less hooks designed 2 trap u in their ecosystem (workshop, marketplace, forums, badges, etc.)? How does something like Itch.IO exist when they're significantly more dev-friendly in their percentages? Obviously they're a smaller store-front but what...u imagine if they got bigger they'd instantly collapse? Or they're secretly bleeding tons & are cynically scheming? I mean, yes, if a company has a monopoly then there's lots of incentive for them to exploit everyone for the bottom line. But Steam has that monopoly rn & are doing that exact thing with their revenue cut...the solution isn't "well let's all switch to EGS" and 'capitalist competition' doesn't actually work but, if a developer sees that a company gives them a bigger cut, they don't owe fealty or loyalty to Steam or whatever & the worst-case scenario ur portraying is that if u buy something frorm Epic & the dev gets a bigger cut than Steam, eventually they might return to the same revenue cut for Devs that Steam already has (because then they'll be a monopoly...like Steam already is) ,so, for now, who cares? It's a roundabout way 2 get ur tax money back from Epic/Disney & China (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

plz do not operate out of imagined kindness from schlubby biz ppl working at their private tech company located in Bellevue, Washington. even if it does give u extra leverage to pounce on the obvious cynicism of schlubby biz ppl working at their private tech company located in Cary, North Carolina Instead, enjoy free games from Epic Software, or, if u feel uncomfortable with their EULA don't download the free games....or put fake info in & claim them without installing the launcher...u have so many options

Stickman posted:Apparently there's a leaked EGS game list on reddit that's been accurate so far. Besides tomorrow's Talos Principle the remaining games are repiv posted:The two games they repeated from previous giveaways (Celeste and Hyper Light Drifter) weren't on the leaked list though, so I wonder if two of those games pulled out and the repeats were a last minute replacement. Well there's only 4 games left (including Talos Principle) so unless they do like a ,"Two Games Finale!" or something definitely one of those cant be included. I'd say A Knight's Quest & Cardpocalypse are pretty much guaranteed, since they're exclusives that Epic snapped up without much fanfare (because...no brand). Kingdom Come also seems more plausible to me because it's been out longer & it's on Game Pass, which seems 2 have a lot of overlap with the games EGS gives away.

Now that I’ve got 6 indie treasures on the epic game launcher that I haven’t installed yet, they have defeated Steam via capitalism

Tombot posted:It looks like some kind of watered down version of spacestaion 13, possibly designed to capitilize on the success of Traitor in Terrorist Town. I don't see anything that suggests that it's pay to win. mafia/werewolf equivalents have to be one of the oldest minor-genres, i remember playing warcraft custom game versions of it however long ago

brothers is boring because the gameplay is solving the lowest tier of video game puzzle/interaction (can u pathfind around an obstacle? can u put two boxes on two scales) while, yes, an entirely predictable slowburn buddy drama/coming of age story animates in front of u while, no matter how hard u push the stick, one or two characters walk super slowly so the camera can swoop around 3d gray rocks and flat water, or, just as often - u don't get to move the stick at all cuz a cutscenes playing. Play Ico or Another World or Prince of Persia or Limbo or one of a million cinematic platformers that can generate higher levels of interest/interaction & don't yank the controls away from u every 10 minutes unless u rly rly love the experience of holding left to shimmy across a platform in Uncharted...if thats what u like then u will be hype they made the ultimate game for u
