Well. My interest in buying this game is "in development".
(Not really, it's not my kind of game anyway. But I don't play games online, so that's what I would be saying if it was a game I would have been interested in)

Quoting: NezchanIt looks interesting, but the sound effects seem awfully harsh to my ears. I can't help but feel like the running sound and NPC "voices" would annoy me greatly after a while.Don't most games have volume options on that kind of stuff?
Maybe not even that long a while.
With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2

Seems quite cool, but that's a pretty expensive DLC. I'm not against the lots of DLCs for Paradox strategy games in general, but I do kind of expect that each individual DLC will not be the price of a medium serious game. I'll wait for a sale.

At this point the mere idea of having a clown that isn't scary is kind of fresh.

Quoting: PenglingI'm glad to hear that this worked out for the best because customers spoke up. Hell, the statement "We're still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable." even sounds almost-sincere, too. :tongue:It's always nice when they bother to get a PR person who has some idea how to Relate to the Public.

There is one line that is not bad:
If consumers are led to believe that a game will remain playable indefinitely for certain systems, despite the end of physical support, the CPRs may require that the game remains technically feasible (for example, available offline) to play under those circumstances.(my emphasis)

Quoting: StoneColdSpiderI expected nothing less from the government....... But it could have been worse...... It could have been the nine most terrifying words in the English launguage......... "Im from the Government...... And Im here to help." [External Link]Ah yes, the amazing slogan that helped Ronald Reagan royally screw the United States. Don't get me wrong, it's a brilliant slogan. It's just, it's always been deployed in the service of pissing on people's heads and telling them it's raining.
