So, I'm officially jobless since this moment, finally tons of time to finish the backlog! Hopefully, I won't stay for long like this though, but finding a job of the 3D artist without rich portfolio is a pain in the ass and no one cares that I was working for 3 years under NDA projects and simply can't show 90% of my work. Well, unlimited time for backlog and creativity in improving portfolio doesn't sound that bad though... Just need to figure out how to get money to pay bills, considering how fucked up situation with receiving payments online in my country. Anyway, fun times ahead!
It will, but probably not on this episode 1.After FFXV seeing something as good as FFVIIR warms my heart. Hopefully the game will cover more than the Midgar section.
6-12 months later, probably.

I wonder if next year we'll get see the start of another cycle of stupidity where many games are announced as "exclusives" to boost console sales before coming to PC further down the line.
It's been like this for years lol.
It's been like this for years lol.
All marketings prior to release said it was exclusive. Suddenly very close to release announce it as timed exclusive.
Right now the only games like that on my radar are FFVIIR (which I'm kinda curious about, but I'm yet to dip my toe into the Final Fantasy series), and Nioh 2.
Oh just an unusual amount of bugs and glitches, the episodes already took forever to be released and felt (very) unfinished/rushed in some parts still. One bug ended up wiping my EP2 savegame. I did play on PS4 though and can't speak to the PC version, but often if games on console have issues they're having issues on PC too. I pre-ordered the season and am just gonna wait for it to be finished before I jump back in, hopefully they'll have fixed most of the issues by then.What are some of the tech issues with it? In before the storm my trigger buttons don't work on my controller so I can't run or check objective because of that lol. But besides that it runs fine. And since they're already at episode 4, I'll just wait till all eps are out anyway so release schedule won't matter that much for me.
I'll play the teaser for sure yea. I'm mostly just sad we're moving to different characters. Though I understand why.
it gets better when you get to the water level.Darksiders 3 is not bad ad I expected, but holy hell it's so dark. And all location are sewers or factories or something similar.
GoG Galaxy 2.0 might help you do the first, as you are able to link all your accounts into a single "launcher". It is in beta tho, so you might need someone to give you a key. It also has the possibility of adding console accounts, but I think the reliability of it is quite bad.This is a first-world problem for sure, but as I'm relatively new to PC gaming, I'm trying to organize my library as I add new keys and install games from PC subscription services. It feels overwhelming with my 600+ backlog before even counting what I have for PC, so trying to match what I already have across platforms is a challenge.
Going forward, I'm basically trying to shift what I would have bought on my consoles to buying on PC, but the problem is, I already own so many games between XB1X, PS4 Pro, and Switch, particularly games that have already been given out as part of PS+ and GWG. I think my idea is:
Leaving my other platforms (3DS, Vita, etc.) behind. I feel like already have a ton of overlapping games on PC between all of the games I already own on Switch and what has been given out on PS+/GWG. Specifically regarding indie games, I wish there was an easy way for me to catalog what I own across all of the different PC services (Epic, Origin, etc.) and then compare to what I have for other platforms (PS4, Xbox, or Switch) AND tell me if this game is better suited for the Switch for portability reasons.
- AAA games on PC
- Indie games* and Nintendo exclusives on Switch
- PlayStation exclusives on PS4 Pro ----> not continue PlayStation next-gen
- Xbox Game Pass games (that are not available on PC) on XB1X ----> not continue Xbox next-gen
How many games do you have in Switch goddam.For example, I already own Slay the Spire on Switch, but I can also install it elsewhere due to Xbox Game Pass on Xbox or PC. Where should I play it? Another example: I also already own Celeste on Switch and PC, but I don't know which platform I should play it on. I mean, I might be forced to uninstall indie games from my Switch and play them on PC anyway because I've already filled up my 512GB microSD card on my Switch and I've barely played 5 games or so on it since buying at launch.
Spiderweb Software's new game Queen's Wish: The Conquerer just surprise launched. I think some folks are getting 20% off coupons for it too--I did.
The Year of the Spider RPG is now.

That's a wildly dismissive way to look at Spiderweb's games. They're low budget because it works; Jeff Vogel has talked about this publicly several times.35$ for an asset flip of an asset flip of an asset flip of an asset flip.
I'm always surprised that it sells enough to make a profit when the games are so barebone in fun factor.
Anyone here a diehard fan of Spidersoft?

Spiderweb is still putting out games huh? I admire their tenacity.

I saw all the articles before and I understand that they keep the costs low.For all of you, an interesting read about how they manage it:
and I assume that PC Gamers article about it is also related to it (due to the crappy looking comment), although it might not be nice to put that as the title of the article:

Saw Hektor mention it on Twitter but it was a realization for me. This year I bought less indie games not just because I want to tone down my game spending spree and working on the backlog but also because there were more big(ger) budget releases that weren't open-world games with lots of "content". So my budget for games went towards games like Sekiro, Resident Evil 2, Kingdom Hearts 3, Plague Tale, etc. instead of indie games. Not to say I didn't buy new indie games but compared to other years it is barely double digit if even that.
Anyone else feeling the same this year?
Something good was out before and after it. Heavensward and Shadowbringers.After FFXV seeing something as good as FFVIIR warms my heart. Hopefully the game will cover more than the Midgar section.
Same here. I bought RE2, DMC5, Sekiro, a Plague Tale (still need to beat any of them). There are also some really cheap or free indies from Humblebundle, Epic or Twitch every other week. And free to play or service games with free content like Rainbow Six Siege, Destiny 2 or Apex Legends. Last indie I bought at full price was Cuphead.Saw Hektor mention it on Twitter but it was a realization for me.

About "better suited for Switch", that is always something very subjective, and something your opinion always matters on. In my opinion, it really depends on whether or not you would want to have a worse performing version in specific situations, or if you would be just playing the same games (as you comment on later on).
Another small reminder is that you need to pay an extra for Xbox Game PC, as there are small variations on games availables between PC and XBox.

I like all of the spiderweb software games because I like the story and idea behind them. I think of them more as big giant interactive books, mostly because of all the reading involved.
Dunno, I just enjoy them for what they are. Not every game has to be crysis.
I've only completed these two, Avernum and Avadon:Honestly this is the first I'm hearing about this developer, but I'm really digging the lane they chose for themselves and their business model.
Is there any title on Steam that stands out for first-time players?
Actually almost all of their games have demos, just have to go to their page but the Queens wish one had a pretty awesome kickstarter to make it their most "ambitious" one yet in the sense of hiring a lot more outside people and even doing more than reusing the same wolf model from three decades agoThanks, gang.
Noticed the latest Queen's Wish has a demo on the dev's website.
Maybe I'll just give that a whirl.
