how you know if the steam version is with DRM? it doesnt have multiplayer afaik, so it probably wont use steamworks and if the developers do not add any other DRM stuff then its DRM free there also

Steam is in itself a kind of DRM.

Excellent! Got this on my wishlist since I read about it here last time :)
On the other hand... too many games releasing/coming out of EA right now :(

Quoting: iiariI'd think that the people most interested in a title would go in for early access, but maybe I'm wrong....

If I'm really interested in experiencing a game, why would I spoil it for myself while it's still unfinished? The only reason I might buy an EA title is to fund the development, but I'd never play the game until it's actually out.

Yes, same here. With only a few exceptions of games that are almost done already (like Factorio or RimWorld).
There are so many games out there to play, no need to dive into the unfinished ones for an unfinished experience.

Quoting: Mountain ManWait, they're complaining about low sales, yet they're still in "early access"? Do developers even understand what "early access" is?

I don't really get why people think someone is complaining as their first thought? They specifically say this in the linked post:

This isn't a very high number, but it's close to what we expected, and we're happy with this early result as a new company.

Stop complaining, Liam!

Does anyone know if devs can see the number of people that wishlisted their game?
I feel that is an important statistic, especially for early access games.

Quoting: abelthorneDarwin Project just switched to free2play (source: Rock Paper Shotgun [External Link]). Not sure if it's good news as this kind of move is usually the beginning of the end for games that are not economically viable. Any idea of the current status of the Linux port with this change?

Yeah, that raises an eyebrow...
But it may turn out to be a good thing.

I've probably seen as many examples where it was good for the game as examples where it wasn't.

Quoting: sergealso for youtube you have to ask people consent for the cookie before they hit the display button.

Really? Google should be doing that then, frustrating if we are forced to do it for them. Got a link to confirm this?

This is the reason for a great deal of websites showing that little bar at the top/bottom of their page informing you that they use cookies and that you should leave if you do not agree with that (or something along those lines).
You probably just clicked it away like any sane person would :D

Yeah, it is quite a stupid rule and way behind the technology.
But laws are always behind technology, so we gotta deal with it.
Better to have some laws that lead to some uncomfortable work than no laws at all.

Why have several Steam accounts?

I am very much interested in this, especially the co-op.
Anyone who played it co-op with any experiences?

I really hope they don't make the same mistake as in the third part and offer more variance in the levels.
By the time we played through Serious Sam 3 I was sick and tired of looking at desert maps.

It doesn't have to be quite as totally bonkers as Serious Sam 2, where no map had any connection to any other map, but more than one kind of level is a necessity.
