This is one of the rare pixel-style graphics games that I actually want. I really like the idea of it.

Quoting: Grifter
Quoting: KimyrielleThe toolset IS NWN. The actual game is not all that good, really. What made NWN great was the ability to make your own games.
If you just want to get a game to play, then the game is the game, you get 3 campaigns plus their little one-off maps like kingmaker, and all campaigns are well worth it and very enjoyable. If you want to extend the game then there are literally hundreds of campaigns already created by players, some of them are extremely good rivalling the original campaign even. So while you may not use the toolset, you're getting an insane amount of gaming. The toolset served its purpose long ago, but I'm not sure a release of an enhanced edition can garner a new revolution of NWN campaigns, so take the game for what it is, a crazy amount of already produced material which you can keep playing for a loooooong time.
Thanks for this post, because the toolset comments were making doubt whether I should get the game or not. As long as I can still play community content created in the past, I know what I'm paying for, and I'm just as excited as I was before.

Maybe this will change later, but this is my most anticipated game this year. I will buy on release day!

Yeah, I'll get some of that Stellaris DLC... been playing it like an addict lately.

Valve's card game 'Artifact' will be on Source 2, it's not free to play and will release this year

The game sounds good to me. I can see myself buying it. I like Magic, Solforge, etc.

The Linux beta of Arma 3 has been updated to 1.80, compatible with Windows again for a time

I'm glad we can play this. My Windows buddies are kind enough to opt into the legacyports branch so they can always play with me. We play the co-op missions. They can be unforgiving, which forces you to play well. It's a fun challenge. Not every shooter has to be arcade-like with fast respawns.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPYeah, I don't get it, either.
At that price, why not buy a DS and quite some games that were actually made to be played on a tiny screen?
Yeah, I was gonna say you could get a 3DS and a Switch!

Farm Together is actually quite a relaxing and sweet experience, now in Early Access

I like the sound of this one for my kids, although I'm not ready to start buying them games (beyond the only game they have right now: Minecraft). After they're a little older, I'm sure this game will be finished. :)

I think this would be really fun. Added to my wish list.
For $10, a good co-op game doesn't have to be long.
