Steam heard me, Dominions 4 is on sale now

You can get it for 6€ on Gamersgate. Dominions 5 was 20$(10 euro cheaper than Steam) on there a few days ago as well, but that sale ended.

It's a legit site. Not sure how/if it works outside Sweden, but I've never had any problems. Almost always a lot cheaper than Steam and even other 3rd party sites with the games they have.

This has potential but the combat is "divisive".

Looks interesting. Not thrilled to see that bulletproof somersaults are the primary gameplay mechanic.

Yes. I've tried the demo and I don't like the combat. It's difficult for the wrong reasons.

I honestly don't understand how someone can develop a Souls-like game and fuck up the most important aspect: the combat.

Can confirm it work outside the Sweden, there were some decent promotions back then but these days getting decent price is almost pure luck.
They were selling Deep Shadows games before they went to Steam, still sell games that are not available on Steam for some reason, either devs/owners forgot or just don't care.
Like Demise, which get new expansion soon, with some test going on now.

Massive butthurt:

“Sega Europe reached out to former members of the Golden Axe: Reborn dev team to produce this prototype of the game for Steam as part of our 60th Anniversary celebrations. We wanted to bring the work of the developers at the time to light and celebrate it as a part of our history. Something we didn’t get the chance to do first time around. We certainly didn’t mean to dredge up painful memories for Mr. Dawson and his former colleagues or appear disrespectful. We’ve removed the line from the Steam copy that could have been taken as a slur on the development and would like to reassure everyone that it was intended as a comment on the build we had ported to PC, not the quality of the original work. We’re hoping lots of fans play the prototype and can appreciate the work he and his colleagues put into this developing this prototype.”

Yeah, I saw that a few months back, but they weren't accepting my payment method.

So this just arrived.

Weird to say for a mobile port, but I think Kingdom Rush is my favorite tower defense game or series. Nice balance of tower placement strategy, upgrade management, and mobile hero blocking. Just complicated enough. Plus they finally stopped their asshole drip feed release schedule with this game, you just buy it all at once. Lastly the series does excellent ports to PC, M&K controls are solid and microtransactions completely removed. Very excited to dig into this after work today.

The sequel to Bomber Crew which was a fun if repetitive roguelite about flying a slightly understaffed airplane on bombing and reconnaissance missions, levelling up crew, and buying improvements for the plane. Lots of death spiral situations where you have to decide whether to fight the fires or parachute to safety. The main draw for me was the uniqueness of the mechanics - you never fire the guns yourself; instead you tell your guys to go to the gunning station, you tag the enemies, and let the crew do the rest. Similar mechanics for all stations on the plane. Playing this again in a different setting with some mechanical refinements sounds fun.

 

[El Presidente]

Kingdom Rush is excellent, instabought it.

Is there any reason to play older versions of Dominions?
