Psychonauts have not aged well. I'd advice you to wait for the sequel, Liam.

And Spyker is right, the battle for the exclusives are as hard as ever, only they use 1st party devs for that. That's why they (Microsoft, Sony, etc) purchase developers all the time.

Quoting: ShmerlNo indie have ever been part of the exclusive game. They don't have the mass appeal. What we talk about here are the big 3rd party publishers. The AAA league. Ubisoft, Rockstar, Bethesta, Capcom, Electronic Arts and the likes.Quoting: SpykerThird party exclusives are dying, but not first party which are increasing.I don't care about first party ones most of the time, since they are by big publishers who push DRM. And as you said, third party exclusives aren't a thing and such developers are also more likely to release DRM-free and for Linux.
On PC Fortnite can be considered as an Epic Store exclusive.

Purchased solely based on this article, Liam! That's the kind of power you have now... ;-)
Ran like a dream on my 780gtx. It's been ages since I played something like this. Looks great too, it has that "right look" for the genre. Love it so far, it has everything one expect it to have. In spades.

Just to chime in: I think it's very relevant to make a distinction between Steam Play and Wine, simply cause the user experience is different on a fundamental level. SP is completely transparent. One don't have to do (or know) a single ting related to Wine to run a game on Google Play.

I see no reason to install the windows version now that I know the Linux version is on the way!

Quoting: wintermuteDogma: Eternal Night [External Link]? As far as I'm aware it hasn't seen an update since September 2017.Yup that's the one! Oh bummer, that's a tragedy. I'd so totally love to see a goth/Vampire The Masquerade themed game. With or without multiplayer.

To be honest I think the problem is rather the exceptionally outdated graphics than the price. I don't think I'd download this had it been completely free.
But speaking of MMOs in the making, what's the status of that vampire mmo we read about a while ago? I can't recall the name...

Of all the illogical, stupid scenarios and mechanics we have to do our best to accept in the gaming world: Making a 2D game where you travel in SPACE - the absolutely ultimate three dimensional room in existence - is simply the dumbest I ever see.
I mean - come the f*ck on - have your friggin' two dimensional playfields at least take place on firm grounds - or a concrete background. I can accept side-scrollers where you live on a world with no depth. I can live with platformers where there's only two directions to walk -forward or backwards. I get it. It's just a game. Fine, fine.
But to see our spaceships slide around on an invisible skating ice in friggin' SPACE... With planets scrolling by in the distance and all the space in the universe (literary speaking) underneath you but you're forced to move on a flat surface... Get out of here. Just get out, take your game with you, and get in front of your drawing board again.
If anything, ANYTHING need to be in three dimensions, it's SPACE.

Sounds like my group of coop players at work should wait for the A17 patch then, before we start a new game. Thanks guys.

The one big question remains though: Can we start a new coop session on this patch and expect to survive an upgrade to the final A17 patch, or will we need to regenerate the map (and characters) between now and the final A17 patch?
