I do like these games, but not sitting at my desk. As I don't have a Steam Deck... yeah, pity.

I kinda want to buy it just because it was built with Godot though.

Imagine a game being removed ala Netflix style. That would SUCK.

I'll give it a shot in the Summer since it's free, but I haven't been up to par in twitch style, competitive shooters for years. Getting sniped the second 1/4 of your head emerges from a corner and sitting out the whole round really blows.

I'm a little disappointed that "releasing April 27th" means Early Access.

Besides that, I've been playing the demo a little bit the past few days. It's nice that demos are getting a tad more popular again. This one doesn't feel restricted, and the gameplay is really nice. It feels cozy without being too easy and boring. I plan to purchase it!

I guess I didn't realize the demo was on GOG, so I've been playing it on Steam. Hmm... which store will I buy it from....

What do you mean by standalone system? Is the clear case like a docking station?

My friends and I tried playing this like two years ago several times. It was guaranteed death and failure, so we gave up. Maybe it is a little easier now?

Quoting: JarmerMAN ALIVE.

I never hear anyone say that anymore.

I was interested in Last Epoch long ago, but it has gone down a little as the gameplay pace started looking fast like Diablo. I was hoping for a little slower, like the old hack-and-slash games.

Oh, it's released now? Nice. I already purchased it from GOG during development. Woot!

I did not give Cities: Skylines a fair try. I tried starting it one day when I must not have been in the mood to learn a new game, and so I quit after like 15 minutes. Still, I have no excitement for a sequel until I experience the first game I already own.

But Life by You and Lamplighters? Oh yeah. I want those. The Sims could use some competition. I'm not a Sims addict, but they're fun to play every year or so. Get bored, then take a break for another year. I welcome a game like that from a Linux friendly publisher like Paradox where I don't have to launch Origin via Wine.

I know people will be cynical about DLC from Paradox for a Sims-like game. DLC that I don't have to buy doesn't bother me. I have several Stellaris DLC, but I don't own much DLC for other Paradox games. Works for me.

Quoting: GuestYes, the hardware prices go crazy periodically during last few years, and it is really frustrating to see that pretty capable GPUs get obsolete due to the lack of software support.

I know pointing this out doesn't help anybody, but remember that Dota 2 is practically a game as a service, or like a subscription model. It's not like you can purchase a certain version of the game and keep playing it forever.

Is it even possible to make graphics cards support newer stuff better? Like flashing the firmware? Is that something we could rally for? It's kind of the same situation with cell phones. You can get an iPhone that physically works a lot longer than bug fix support lasts. E-waste FTW.
