Quoting: PhlebiacI agree that the animated trailer looks cool, but I'm not sure what the point of it is? The gameplay trailer is more representative of the actual game, right? Are there animation sequences similar to the animated trailer in the game at all?

It's simple: marketing. Literally all it is. It generates hype. The same reason any game has a non-gameplay trailer.

Quoting: ShabbyXRecently started Valheim over the hype with the expectation that I won't like it (not into survival games in general). But damn, this game is fun!

Won't forget my first encounter with a troll that's for sure.

You never forget the first time you get killed by a falling tree either lol

Quoting: Liam DaweThey did briefly try something in the past

That has to be it, didn't Ubisoft and/or 2k look into this as well?

Many pubs have tried to do so yes.

Quoting: basedIsn't this old news? Or wrong company

No, it's very clearly their 2024 report. They did briefly try something in the past, but they're once again looking at it and as quoted, have people working on it.

I explained the issue to them, it actually *should* be solved for the demo now.

Quoting: RomlokNote that the native Linux demo is currently broken, in that the wrong Steam depot is connected so that we get the Windows files instead. Classic "missing executable"! 🤦

Should be fixed now, was wrongly tagged as Steam Deck only.

There’s a bug with double inputs on external gamepads, will be fixed in next Preview: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/1500#issuecomment-2103926599

Killer for me so I’m rolling back for now.

Quoting: WYWI first found out about this game when reading about the history of Bungie and the Apple Pippin video game console.

I wonder if Luxtorpeda will eventually add support for the native open source engine.

I poked the developer, they're looking into it.

Quoting: SalvatosI’m glad there’s a demo because this looks like it might be a bit too technical for me but I’m still quite intrigued and willing to try it out.

The good thing about this is you can take your time. It's turn-based along the timeline and the tutorial sets it up for you quite nicely.
