- Comment on Alan Wake 2 - The Anniversary Update explained 4 weeks ago:
This game was published and likely almost fully funded by Epic.
I can definitely understand not liking them and not wanting to give them your money, but in this case I think the game wouldn’t exist without their involvement. So it may never see a Steam release, or it will be very delayed.
- Comment on Slay the Spire devs followed through on abandoning Unity 7 months ago:
STS was Java running on libgdx.
STS2 will be C# on Godot.

- Comment on Are there any games like Diablo but not Diablo because Diablo? 8 months ago:
I believe the acts themselves will be longer and more fleshed out but there’s less of them.
6 acts in Path of Exile 2 instead of the 10 acts that PoE1 has.
- Comment on Are there any games like Diablo but not Diablo because Diablo? 9 months ago:
It’s actually an upgraded version of the same engine, and Path of Exile 1 is getting a lot of the new tech backported.
It was originally supposed to replace Path of Exile 1, but now they are going to exist together.
2 will be more refined and slower, with a brand new story and 6 new acts. Should be a fun time.
- Comment on FromSoftware owner acquires Octopath Traveler developer 9 months ago:
I didn’t enjoy the first one, I am enjoying the second one a lot more. It’s not perfect, but the stories are generally better and things feel more polished. It’s still an old-school JRPG though.
- Comment on Prison Architect 2 - Official Announcement Trailer 10 months ago:
You can still play the game offline and single player just fine.
- Comment on Final Fantasy 16 on PC shows signs of life, with producer Yoshi-P saying it will run best on an SSD 11 months ago:
SSDs have gotten so cheap and fast recently.
Most games now assume you have one. Games are generally built around having minimal or even no loading screens. So fast storage is a must.
- Comment on Just beat Lies of P and I love it! 1 year ago:
It’s on Gamepass. Just get that for $10 and beat it. Might be able to find a free trial somewhere too.
- Comment on Palworld | TGS 2023 Trailer | Pocketpair | Multiplayer | Character Customization 1 year ago:
I played a bit of Craftopia awhile back from the same developers. It was weird, disjointed, buggy and strange.
I expect this will be more of the same. But I hope I’m wrong. It would be wild for this game to be decent to good.
- Comment on Final Fantasy XVI producer announces PC version is in development, along with 2 paid DLCs 1 year ago:
Definitely agree with this. Locked 30fps mode with motion blur set to 2/5 was the ideal way to play this game. Performance mode was far too unstable and blurry especially on a larger TV.

I know what this post is referencing, but I don’t think that was really the message that they were trying to convey.
Baldurs Gate 3 is an incredibly good game, but it will be difficult for most average studios to emulate their success.
They had a very long developmental cycle of 6+ years, very successful early access, and a team of 400+ experienced developers who know this genre better than anyone.
I would absolutely love to see another studio attempt something this ambitious, but it’s going to be really hard to top this game for the foreseeable future.
- Comment on Stronghold: Definitive Edition - Game Overview & Demo Release! 1 year ago:
I tried out the demo, surprised to see it’s being ported to Unity.
Demo feels very early and has some problems (like not being able to quit properly) but it’s a promising start otherwise.
- Comment on Remnant 2 - Official Overview Trailer 1 year ago:
This is not really a AAA game. This is more mid-budget or AA, sold at a cheaper price.
