PC Gaming Era | December 2018 - We got 99 problems, but 76 ain't one

How long until we see a storefront that give devs 100% share +bonus money for each game sold in order to gain "market share" and then burns through a billion in venture capital before it collapses without warning, locks everyone out of their libraries, and dumps everyone's CC#s in a hack?
Book of Demons is a Diablo, deck-building, clicker, rogue-like. I'm not even mad, I'm just impressed.

and it's a shitty turret section
honestly all that games kinda sucks
Next up on my plate are Gris, Desert Child & Jotun. I should really play the adventure games I bought back in the summer but had to put off due to backlog :S
Oddly tempted to do another run on DQ11 for some reason.
I didn't think the final section was trash just...underwhelmingly anti-climatic.

Blood Dragon's theme is interesting but even on Easy enemies felt too strong plus the map and overall presentation makes it hard to stealth enemies. You can only stealth for so long til you're spotted then you gotta just kill whoever you while healing every other minute.

This toxicity that unfairly robs Devs of purchases must stop. Truly, Epic Store has understood the evils of an informed customer base, and come to the rescue. Also, as an advoctate of privacy, I'm touched how much they care about EU privacy laws, and let it even inform every detail of their webdesign, up the point of not pre-ticking boxes.
Glory To Competitition, Death to Steam, Freedom For Devs!
There's like 1 that gave it a 7. Game doesn't want to start for most people on PC. They're working on a fix.
You are absolutely right, I see that my way is indeed wrong and we all should strive to be "pro-dev" & "pro-publisher" and just give them all of our money blindly.
i personally found it a chore to play through and didn't like the aesthetics at all
Any good?
I'm not going near it for the time being though. They used a DX function that only works on Win8 and above, then sold it as working on Win7 to begin with. Won't even launch past the dev's logo for lots of people on Win 10 as well according to the forums. Shows it hasn't been tested properly at all. Shame, it looks really interesting.
I'm not buying it until everything has been sorted out.
Also to those who want the soundtrack, but it from bandcamp. The steam version is MP3 192 which is embarrassing.
For people who've played Gris, is it one of those games I should try to carve out 4ish hours straight and go through it in one shot?
Here too, looks and runs beautifully. The intro alone though... patience strongly recommended.
Also if you're using a Windows N version the Media Feature Pack is needed.
Beta patch!!
Also F76 is down to 17€ on cdkeys.
Sinner needs to come to steam as I actually was starting to quite like it after a bad first impression but fuck it's 720p or something similar on the Xbox One with huge dips!

Expeditions: Viking for £3.79 on GOG. That's by far the cheapest it's ever been, right?

Like they thing about costumers in this, they are just counting in the worship and the need to play the games.
The best pure boardgame solitare deck builder there is in videogame form, beautiful art and a lot and I mean a lot of story setups to clear with the deck, it is very difficult and tense but rewarding.

Holy shit Gunfire Games released new patch for Darksiders 3 adding new combat option for the game. I am not sure how big changes are exactly, but new combat should be "similar to previous two Darksiders games." Players can now choose between the two combat options.
EA is adding some newer THQ Nordic games (Darksiders III and This Is the Police II) to Origin Access Premier, FYI.
The December batch of Basic games isn't up yet, though Tyranny was added a few weeks ago in between the usual mid-month additions.

I have just finished Iconoclasts. I remember at the beginning of this year when it released simultaneously to Celeste. Back then, I wisely chose Celeste and that became my GOTY. Later last month I finally bought the one I was missing.
Iconoclasts is a great game too. The boss fights are what stand the most to me, puzzle-wise, most were very basic. The story is very interesting as well. I wasn't getting into it until the last bits of the game, and ended up enjoying what the plot had to offer when seeing the credits screen. Too bad it seems I'd have to beat the game at least one more time to get all achievements, maybe someday.
I recommend it to anyone that enjoys something 'megaman' like, feating some great boss battles with a rather interesting story about religious manipulation and belief.

For some reason, Discord coming in and stealing Epic's thunder a few days after that huge marketing push is absolutely hilarious to me.
Real winner would be MS wit relaunching their store and going with 100% revenue to developers from PC sales but 30% from Xbox sales. Mandatory release on both platforms XD
All while Itch sits there thinking "but we did this ages ago".
The Epic vs Discord thing is even weirder when you consider Tencent are involved in both.
Personally, I've been taking breaks, as the gameplay is rather simple really and so don't want it to get too repetitive.
Wait for build!
Seriously tho, MS is pretty close to that model for anything that is not game already. (85%-95% on PC / 70% on xbox)
Another patch, same old water quality. Surely it can't be intentional. I mean, this is JC4:
And this is a low-res screenshot of the PC version of Halo 2:
Wonder if it's gonna start a competition (look, I used the word Era likes!) between them:
Epic: We announce a 91/9 Revenue Share!
Discord: We announce a 92/8 Revenue Share!
Epic: Well, fine, assholes, we now have a 95/5 revenue share, you'll never top ...
Discord: it's 98/2, now.
Epic: Dammit! Ok, we give up, it's 100/0. There, no one can go further than ...
Discord: We have a 110/0 split, we actually match 10% of your sales and give it to you as additional revenue.
Epic: Goddammit!

Did they improved visuals at all? I was really disappointed to see that they downgraded visuals for final build.

Patch goes live soon. Youd think the better asset part will be water quality but it wont be lol
I think they've spruced up some things here and there, but, AFAIK, the water is still reminiscent of an early PS360-era game... on the PS3.
H2Ohgod.
Finished all 3 episodes of Dusk
If you like retro shooters or fast paced shooter in general, you absolutely owe this game money.
High quality adrenaline pumping action.
Game absolutely exhausted me, forcing me to take a multiple hour / 1 day break between every episode.
Havent played a game like that in a while.
10/10 leveldesign too.
All i can say about this is holy shit, a pc ass pc shooter.
Buy it.
Oh, I'm just inferring from past patch notes. I've yet to play the game myself. I'm still finishing up AssCreed Odyssey, haha.
Yep.
I think it's better for all of us if MS limits UWP and their efforts to merge pc gaming with Xbox gaming to their own (1st party) games. ;)
I've made it to about the halfway mark in Dusk so far, and yo, that second episode goes places. I think it was e2m4 and e2m5 that really blew me away. Those levels in particular felt bold in a way most retro-style games just don't. I'm hoping to finish it up this weekend.
