Wow, this is major. It firmly places Unity as THE framework for multi plat game development.

The time is here to jump on this bandwagon.

... And this - THIS - is the reason there's no hype around the "Steam Boxes" yet. This is why there's no promotional activities, no marketing, no stack of boxes competing for attention, all silence. To all of you that in other articles have complained about the lack of marketing and promotional efforts from Valve and 3rd parties yet:

THIS is why. There's nothing to push to the mass market yet. It's Not Ready.

Quoting: BeamboomOh man I hope they haven't broken an otherwise great game with microtransactions... If so I will never forgive Square Enix!

Yes and no. The microtransactions apparently don't apply to the main game but just a weird "assault" mode that apparently is just kind of crappy in general (so, yes microtransactions but most people probably won't notice or care). However if you got the pre-order DLC all of the consumables (praxis kits, ammo, health, etc) are one time use only. You keep the preorder weapons across saves/new games but only your first playthrough in which you redeemed the DLC gets the consumables. And that's just terrible. Both silly and terrible.

Because, come on, there will definitely be hacks and trainers and such for this game at some point. What's the benefit to Square Enix? Someone isn't going to buy the DLC again.

Thanks a lot for that clarification!

I'm gonna play a round of one of the AAA titles this evening, to mark this occasion. That's something I didn't think I'd see the day to do just a very few years ago.

Quoting: liamdaweI don't have any to hand and don't fancy trawling months of Facebook, as if I did I can tell you now I would have a lot more posts here on GOL for Feral, but I don't consider Feral telling people they are taking port request feedback as news. Of course they are.

General port requests are one thing, that's just chitchatter. But here they did a specific one for Deus Ex, as you see if you follow the link to Facebook.

I do believe I've seen it on other titles too - I'm quite sure of it - but it's not very common. Hence it'd be really interesting to see what other titles they did these specific posts on.

If anyone recalls?

Quoting: liamdaweOh I know what you're saying and I understand it. Just don't read into it too much, like I said Feral reply like that to port requests on FB quite often for lots of different games.

Can you recall what other titles they've done the same with, using this "requestinator [External Link]" of theirs? It's not that I doubt you - I imagine I've seen it too, but can't recall any actual titles.

Even then new one, not the old?! The new entry that all the reviews are saying are "more of the same, only better" - in other words EXACTLY what I want?!

You gotta be fucking kidding me. This is HUGE! Like, this-single-handedly-saves-this-year-in-Linux-gaming huge!
