Sadly they've had issues publishing the full version on itch.io, as they were told it's too big to be hosted there.itch.io has a size limit, and a visual novel is too big? :shock:

Get Alan Wake, Pathologic 2, STASIS: BONE TOTEM and more in this bundle

They did a remaster of Alan Wake a couple years ago, but it's still an EGS exclusive. :angry:
Looks like Alan Wake 2 is getting the same treatment, but since it's a new game, hopefully sales will be lousy enough that the exclusivity won't last. Or maybe it will, if Epic funded the development:

Also, disappointed that Stasis: Bone Totem still hasn't gotten a native Linux build. They said they would try to get it done soon after release, but maybe didn't bother once it got Steam Deck Verified. :sad:

Microsoft completes takeover of Activision Blizzard as UK CMA approves new deal

Also, my initial thought when I first heard Ubisoft was getting rights was: "why Ubisoft?" But then I remembered it's probably the largest gaming publisher in the EU.
In any case, if there's any bright spot, it's some of their games showing up on Steam (i.e. Diablo 4), although it remains to be seen if that dries up now that the deal is final.

Quoting: SalvatosHow can Ubisoft have the streaming rights and Microsoft non-streaming rights?I'm confused about this as well. If Microsoft wants to make their new game available on Amazon Luna (that's not dead yet, right?), does Ubisoft have the right to veto it? If Amazon wants to pay out the wazoo to make CoD:L00tB0x+ available on Luna, does Ubisoft get the payoff? Presumably it's still the M$-owned company that has to make it work.

Quoting: CalinouThe majority of the work is reviewing and testing a pull requestIndeed. As someone who reviews and pulls a lot of PRs (not for Godot, obviously), I have to say: there can never be enough peer review! Having to reject PRs multiple times (for seemingly obvious reasons) can be quite frustrating.

Quoting: PenglingIt was in a cross-platform bundle, with the promise that the Linux port was coming soon. But it never came.Quoting: ShabbyXNot that I care about Giana Sisters in any way, but it was the promise that wasn't delivered that killed the bundles for me.I've only been in the Linux-gaming scene for a couple of years, so I missed this. What happened? :shock:
