  I’ve heard that for smaller studios it is incredibly important to get those early sales. Their margins are often very small (if they exist at all) so getting early and continued support is often vital.

  I imagine there might be quite a few available on the PS store so don’t worry about it.

  Enjoy! I’ve only played the first one but I enjoyed it enough to 100% it twice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which Spider Man games to play on PS5?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah these games are quite story heavy so don’t start with Miles, play them in order.

  Also, there’s only 3 games in the current series to my knowledge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some helpful gaming websites you wish people knew?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  isthereanydeal.com is great for getting any given game at a good price. You can see where it is currently/usually cheapest, its price over time, etc. You can also set up notifications for when it drops below a certain threshold.

  May be hit or miss but Moving Out (1 or 2) is a lot of fun. You spend most of your time failing to do anything and just laughing about how goofy it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marvel’s Blade | Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a big Marvel fan (and know next to nothing about Blade) but he was one of my favorites in Midnight Suns (which is awesome) so I’m definitely looking forward to this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marvel’s Blade | Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Why? Considering how much design freedom Marvel allowed the devs with Midnight Suns I don’t see why it couldn’t be. What parts of the immersive sim genre do you think can’t be done in a mainstream game?

  Still playing Slay The Spire and Hexcells as my “podcast games”.

  Started Halls of Torment. Really cool aesthetically and some interesting boss designs. Hope it distinguishes itself more from Vampire Survivors though. Especially in having more incentives to keep playing than “numbers go up”. There are some minor story things and unique aspects of some maps that I think could really set this game apart.

  Also playing Super Mario Sunshine. Honestly probably my least favorite 3D Mario to date. Besides feeling very clumsy it has some pretty sloppy level design here and there. Still a decent game, but having played Odyssey this game feels very dated.

  You do you, friend. I’m not trying to defend anything, just trying to help you out.

  If you want to go on a crusade against anti-consumer practices or whatever then requesting a refund seems like the first step.

  In short:

  🤷‍♂️

  What I’m saying is that unlike other PCs the steam deck has very few varying factors (out of the box). Meaning, if it works for others, it is likely it could work for you.

  I’m not saying anything or anyone is infallible. In fact, I just had a look at proton DB and there are certainly plenty other people with similar problems.

  These are good news because Larian has a reputation for supporting and improving their games long after release. These kinks will get ironed out.

  And again, if you don’t wish to be an early adopter (which is completely fine), refund it.

  1. It’ll likely get fixed unless you did something funky to your steam deck that makes it a weird edge case
  2. Steam offers refunds
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lords of the Fallen - Official Extended Gameplay Overview⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks pretty cool! If they get the feeling of the combat right I can see this being a lot of fun. Particularly like their take on the Zelda-esque parallel shadow world.

  Looking forward to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart on PC. Probably the game that made the choice between PS5 and PC the most difficult for me. Just gonna hold off to see if it’s a decent port first.
