Thanks tuubi.

We really do need to re-design our headerbar to incorporate easy links to such places, they're currently buried in our footer. Just haven't had the time :)

You won't even see the footer with Endless Scroll! And oddly enough, I don't have that enabled and still didn't see those icons! :D

I purposely kept Early Access games out of my list. Otherwise, Oxygen Not Included might have it, and both Slay the Spire and Streets of Rogue would definitely have made it.

In particular, Slay the Spire is absolutely epic. I love it. I'm hooked. Hundreds of hours.

Quoting: KimyrielleIt's amazing how people that apparently know very little about software development are able to collect so much money on a Kickstarter. People that shoot for cross-platform development, even announce and market their product that way, and then use Windows-only middleware that every complete beginner can deduct from just reading manuals, doesn't run on all platforms they promised to support, should really think hard about switching their career to anything that doesn't involve a keyboard.

Sadly, this is only partly a question of skill. Ethics plays a larger role and based of what we've seen from 505 and Artplay so far, that's in short supply.

Tom Sweeney is all talk. This is wholly unsurprising, sadly.

It's a minor thing, but one action you can take is to "Ignore" 505 Games as a creator on Steam. Provided Valve actually honour the setting, it should prevent any games published by "505 Games" from appearing in your store, either in queues, or recommendations.

No idea if they have visibility of this, but I'm certainly never dropping money on scammers where I can help it, so I've given it a shot.

Click on the gear icon on the top right and choose "Ignore Creator".

Sadly, the developer "Artplay" haven't created a content page, so I'm not sure if there's a way to ignore them. If find one, I'll post again.

Quoting: ShmerlI'm surprised some are stupid enough to pay anything to those who make Denuvo, let alone such crazy prices. And no respect for developers who make such garbage.

I'm pretty keen to pick up both Nier:Automata and Prey, but wouldn't prod either of them with a shitty stick until they ditch Denuvo. I'm not supporting that. Ever.

Edit to add: annoyingly I got the new Metal Gear Solid game via Humble Bundle last month, but won't install it for the same reason, despite a platinum rating in ProtonDB.

Yep, it's a real performance hog now. I've pushed a few settings down a notch or two and I'm still lucky to hit 50fps, despite my monster graphics card. Hopefully now that it's stable, they'll focus on that performance issue - A16 was very fast by comparison.

But what a game. The melee is finally satisfying. When you power attack with an Iron Sledge, the zombies will literally fly away from you, ragdolling and tumbling through the air - it's great.

And the skill system is great too. With the latest re-balance the forge is much more achievable. I was pretty disappointed with the bike though - it's not much faster than walking unless you use stamina to speed it up, and when you do, you're lucky to last 30 seconds before it's gone and you're back to walking pace. Hopefully that gets a tweak or two in future.

Great game. Loving it all over again.

I'm looking forward to giving this a go. Didn't think this would realistically come after the MS buyout.

Quoting: dubigrasuLimbo on wheels :)

Came here to say "Limbo on a bike!", and you beat me to it! Reminds me of the very original Trials game. I think I still have a trials.jar kicking around for that. No idea if it'll still run though.

I'll be picking this up on launch - looks great.

Quoting: TcheyI've been following this game for i think about two years. This "mistake" was just that, and according to my knowledge, they clearly don't deserve "community punishment".

Is this where he cancelled a third-party key when the game got a bad review? If so, totally agree - a one-off moment of madness which he apologised for and made good. Indeed, even the affected reviewer was satisfied by the response, if I remember correctly. It shouldn't be our place to project fake rage over what is already a resolved situation.
