Good game but the director is a piece of shit

The DLC is really nice. Modding community for the game is active as fuck. Surprised it sold 1 million considering it launched right next to Odyssey which buried it.

Wasnt down with the DLC even though i hear they patched it to be less ridiculous.

Extremely good base game though. The modding community is insane too.

As much as I have my reservations regarding the director, I always thought the game looked super charming and fun. I'm currently waiting for the Switch version.

That's good to hear. I bought this a few months back and really enjoyed it. Well worth it for anyone into 3D platformers. I was surprised with how charming everything was, and how well designed most of the levels are.

I wonder if that count includes bundle sales. I imagine so, but still good numbers.

Great and charming game.

Well, it took only 3 replies.......Im not a big fan of the game. The world design is just too much of a mess imo but it controls and feels better than something like Yooka Laylee

Wonder if this includes Humble Monthly. I got it a few months ago, but I haven't bothered to try it yet.

Holy shit, now imagine how much it’ll be when it comes to the console that’s extremely popular among both indie and platforming fans. I can see that doubling next year.

One of my favorite games of last year, which is definitely saying something with NieR and Persona. So much fun to play.

Good, it's a great game, I just hope that DLC will hit consoles at some point.

Is this really Mario 64 levels of good? If so I may get it on a discount.
It's not a revolutionary game like Mario 64 was back in the day, but it's really well made. I just finished Super Mario 3D Land for the first time, and while I liked it a lot, I liked A Hat in Time better.

It's a nice game, I bought it on PC (Switch version was taking too long for me and my impatience. :) ), but I liked Super Lucky's Tale more, surprisingly. For me it was Yooka<Hat<Lucky.

I wouldn't have expected that going in.

so being a white supremacist is a fake drama, ok
Does every thread on ERA have to be about some guy saying something stupid? It's getting really hard to avoid these things. I was actually politically active for a left wing political party for a few years (in the US they would have called me a communist, seeing as the whole political landscape of the US is kind of right wing already compared to where I live) and even for me this is getting a bit too much.

No, just the ones about shitty people who say shitty things.

Huh? Who is the director of this game and what's the problem here?
I too would like to know O.o
The information is out there but he's a POS that hires artists, fires them with no warning and steals their work after the fact. Not to mention blackmailing people, doxxing them and creating entire sites defaming them. Then there's the whole JonTron fiasco. I'll leave it at that as I really don't want to derail this thread.

Again, for everyone else at Gears for Breakfast, congratulations. One of the best 3D platformers in a while.

Simple answer? No.

Shitty people with shitty views that have real life consequences should get called out. This is his game, it’s relevant. So no.

To be fair Crash and Spyro already proved that in a much bigger way....but yeah.
they did, but since then, the number of successful 3D platformers have dropped off sharply. Spyro and Crash shown that legacy and quality can go a long way, but there's no other studio that has attempted to tap into the legacy (other than Sega, I guess) and indies will struggle to get that quality given the increased complexity of 3D platforming

Crash is back, Spyro is back, Mario back to the 64 style, Hat in Time selling over a million...

If only Banjo and Kazooie could make a come back.

No, what I think is that not wanting to redo some trivial and hardly relevant voice over just in spite of a voice actor you used having anti-immigration ideas is a far cry from being "a white supremacist".

But you can keep doing your self-righteous hyperboles if they actually make you feel so much better about yourself.

Congrats to Hat Girl and pals! The cruise DLC was pretty disappointing but the base game was rather enjoyable~

It didn't do much for me but good on them! The game was super charming but the gameplay wasn't really for me.
