The STEAM Sales and Releases Thread

Beat Voodoo Vince Remastered- It was really good, I would suggest it if you liked Psychonauts. The whole game was brain-dead easy but from the Circus level it turns into a frustrating thing expecially the very last section where if you screw a jump you are done because there are no checkpoints in the middle of the level, I hated that.

So I started Legend of Kay which was in my backlog from years and...it's really mediocre. I mean, it's not bad, but it's not even good, I played two levels, the intro one which was longer and the second with rabbits and the whole thing feels really boring.
Does it get better or I can skip it? Because I feel I can spend my time much better than playing this.

Tyranny in the third tier. Sad. I own Shadow Tactics, hopefully Tyranny will be in the Monthly soon, considering this is the pattern for Humble lately (put a game in tier 3 first, put it in the Monthly later).

For me the combat got awfully repetitive. Like you you said it's not bad, but it won't get better on the run.

..

All show up as errors for some reason.

Still, on store page:

I have some games on Uplay but I haven't even bothered re-installing it for more than a year. Why the fuck would you install Steam and then Uplay? Fuck UBI.

Would you prefer they just make all the games they publish uplay store exclusives like EA, Microsoft, and probably Epic will do moving forward? I mean of all the big publishers I find Ubisoft to be the least offensive.

 

[RK47]

Yes. I prefer that.

Dragonview

Original japanese title is Drakkhen II. I remember reading that in a magazine and renting it only to find out it's completely different and for once the dub name change was justified. Might have been my first gaming bamboozle <3

I have the feeling LIS2 Episode 1 will end up in a bundle very soon, it's 60% off on GMG, it's on Game Pass (with the upcoming episode 2 too)...I wouldn't be surprised if Square makes it free. Selling the game for 40€ and having such a bad schedule release is probably biting their asses.

Supposedly a good game that has come out of Early Access:


Beware, Jon Shafer is At the Gates!

There's no guarantee the same won't happen with Origin and Uplay.

Also, I bought The Division and Siege and both of them still require Uplay to be running along with Steam. Never buying any UBI game. Besides, all their games are same generic shite following same formula, not a big loss. Still pissed off about those purchases.

Don't think this needs any intro but included because well steam was mostly flooded with vn like games this week

Did vdweller plug his platformer here already?

Is Dragon Ball FighterZ Online dead? I tried to do an online match (ranked or casual or arena) for 40 minutes and I can't find a single one, don't understand if because I selected Italy in the server list, the online is busted or what.

I recently watched a YT video covering this, but can't seem to find that exact video. But this one goes into it:



Tl;dw = The game is mostly dead because fighting game tournaments won't host it. Fighting game tournaments won't host it because Bandai/Namco are being dicks about how the game gets used on the esports-level.

 

[Adon]

Tekken 7 and SoulCalibur VI are also Bandai Namco games, and they don’t have that problem. So the popular theory, and most likely scenario is that Koei are the ones being anal about DBFZ.

This is all IIRC-territory to me, but the blame was put at either Koei or Bandai/Namco's feet.
