    Also note that they are publishing the game not developing and it's not going to be free to play.

    You first.
  • I will get it eventually but not until it's out of early access. Cause I'm done with playing beta games. I barely have time to play the games that have been released :-p
  • New MOO isn't as exciting as Stellaris or Endless Space 2.

    I'm not, but I sure as fuck don't buy betas. If you want to give me a free beta, alright, but paying for that shit? Not a chance.
  • Endless Space is soooo Good (and all the Endless games), wish more people got in on that.

    Tomorrow Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow will be in the eShop.

    The big news is that these are modified versions that let you put Pokmeon in the Pokemon Bank! This means you can get Pokemon from Red/Blue and bring them into Sun/Moon. Fuck yeah!

    I wish if it were some how possible to import your save file from your original game. I'd be so happy.
  • RE The Division: When I played the first private beta thing I was a bit skeptical as to how the DZ would play out. There weren't a whole lot of people during the private one so it was completely sparse. It seemed like the public one they upped the spawn rate and there were more people overall so it was more engaging. Someone on the GB forums brought up an issue that I ran into but didn't really consider. If people are working together but aren't on the same team (or whatever the game calls it) then they can lie in wait while one member is the "rogue". This makes things kinda rough in the sense that you can engage the rogue player but the others will eventually step in if one guy can't handle it. Since you can't tackle them beforehand you can get surrounded and destroyed pretty easily. There was also issues with people spawning too close because that's where the checkpoint was. There might need to be a bit of a cooldown or something but that would probably make it annoying for other people. Maybe if you're not rogue and you die you don't have a cooldown. Otherwise you do.

    I heard they kept Missingno in the ports. That's pretty cool.

    I really enjoyed it. The game is beautiful and the characters are flawed and actually communicate in a realistic manner. I think it was well worth the default price, but unless you're really raring to play it now, I'd wait until it's on sale.
  • I played through it and thoroughly enjoyed it. The dialogue is believable, the writing is superb, the story plays out pretty damn realistically. It features a relationship I actually cared about between characters. I can't think of the last time that happened. It's probably worth it's price and definitely worth your time.
  • I have a love-hate relationship with Firewatch. On one hand, it's beautiful and increases with tension and intrigue. On the other, the ending is absolute shit.

    Oh piss off.

  • Sorry, I'll keep the ironic shitposting to a minimum.

    How else could it have ended? At first I thought like you but literally minutes later I thought I was an idiot for thinking so.

    Funny, I just saw that in Steam and had the same reaction.

    In other news, Obsidian and Paradox appear to be working on something interesting.

    You have bad taste in Pokeymans.

    Hitmontop would be great, though.

    I was thinking this game might be some Naruto-fighting-game fare. Fun enough for an hour or two buying it $5 on Steam sale. But ultimately a pretty shallow experience. But it sounds like it's actually pretty substantial.

    I just checked the list of fighting type pokes. All the pure fighting type pokes are meh. Poliwrath is baller, but he's only part-fighting.

    Gallade is my favorite part-fighting.

    Paradox Studios' new space 4X, "Stellaris", comes out on May 9th. I may lose the ability to play all other video games after that point.
