I'd wait until this whole thing settles down. There are some doubts about who's selling this. Most likely Nacon.

It's not like this game is some kind of hot shit or something.

I believe the first court ruling was in favor of Nacon so yes, they are the ones selling it, at least until the final court ruling is made that is

The devs are selling the console versions. This mess is far from over.

The Lunar Effect is a psychological horror puzzle game where every action is questioned, every clue is vital, and every second is precious. Inspired by the art styles of Resident Evil and Silent Hill, The Lunar Effect takes its protagonist on a dark and unfamiliar path. Awakening in a strange mansion, he must discover the fate of its inhabitants and find a way out. But be warned- all is not as it seems.

Explore and interact with the environment to discover your path to freedom. Find your salvation by scouring every inch of the mysterious mansion. With each clue unearthed, the hour of your escape- or demise- draws nearer.

Think outside the box with a host of puzzles and challenges, both within the game and beyond. It will take every ounce of your creative thinking and urgency to make it out with your life.

Be wary; time is fleeting, and to drag one’s feet is to anger the gods. You must make haste to escape an unknown fate and survive your trials. You must escape the Lunar Effect.

Its not really pay to win but pay to not be miserable. You cant buy great gear of buffs to give you edge in combat but pets that collect loot for you, costumes that give bonuses to lifeskills like trading/crafting, and buffs for your carry weight and inventory space (all that are really small from the start to encourage purchases).

Main issues with the game are massive grind after some lvl 56, gear upgrading thats designed around massive grinding, lifeskills like fishing and trading being design for AFKing, being miserable if you dont buy store items like pets and inventory space expansion and at this point no chance of being competitive in pvp vs veteran players.

If you are playing only PvE and treat the game as a beautiful 3rd person action rpg with decent combat with open world to explore, then you can get atleast dozen hours of fun gameplay until you reach that grind breaking point.

Some of you are probably aware that you can get Control from this month's Humble Choice. Originally it was considered that this will be Control Ultimate Edition.

So today 505 Games created another package with the base game and cut two DLCs out of Ultimate Edition so that people from Humble will only be getting the base game and will require to purchase the DLC separately ($14.99 for both as a "Season Pass"). Some actually bought the Ultimate Edition for $14.99.

Cattails is on sale


It's Stardew Valley with cats.

 

[lightbane]

That's fake, the game implies cats can work instead of being lazy asses that have others work for them.

This is out. Normally Steam sends an email when a game in my wishlist gets released but it didn't this time, for some reasons.



First person lovey dovey adventure game that screws with perception Manifold Gaden style, starring Bryce Dallas Howard and published by Annapurna.
