Quoting: GuestLooks ugly, totally misses the point of pixel art.
Fully agree. That post-processing pixel grid is awful.

Ofc, it's a matter of taste.
Maybe they'll optionally offer other aesthetics too. :)

What. Is. This?

Besides, those games imho *look* extremely crappy.
Maybe I'm not so much into Anime. :D

We. The Revolution sounds pretty awesome and it's out now

Very interesting!

Could've been a game by Lucas Pope ("Papers, Please", "Return of the Obra Dinn") at first sight.

Quoting: subI love it how AMD managed to get the design win for this again. :)
There must be some technical reason behind it, I guess.

Otherwise, NVidia would have surely just outbid AMD to get finally
back into the console-a-like AAA business again.
That's easy I think. Google want to be free to use the graphics stack commercially. I'm not sure Nvidia blob allows that without licensing from Nvidia. Though they probably partnered with AMD anyway in some form to benefit both sides (like getting driver support and so on). But at least they are paying for support which is a normal method for FOSS, not for the right to use.
That's probably it.

Didn't many people say NVidia will provide some open-source driver (not necessarily opening the current blob) when there is strong demand by the industry - not Joe user like you and me, ofc?

So are we there yet? :)

Edit: Also, maybe AMD is currently just faster when it comes to customization due to their long-term console design wins.

Thats okay because they cancelled the phonix point native port
EPIC store does not support Linux.
Maybe that was part of the reason to cancel it.

Who knows...

Quit button on the main menu just does nothing

i wonder if someone ever started this game on linux, before they released it.
Doubt it.

I wanted to support the developer for a day-1 Linux release but apparently they don't care much or at all.
Not sure this should be honored.

Thinking about a refund for the very first time.
