I’ve heard that for smaller studios it is incredibly important to get those early sales. Their margins are often very small (if they exist at all) so getting early and continued support is often vital.

I haven’t played anything regularly in a few years. My board game group is finishing up an Imperial Assault campaign and there’s been talk of maybe doing RPGs next (though lord knows I have no shortage of board games that I have bought but not yet played). Would love to run Blades in the Dark, Mothership or maybe something OSR. I think all those could be good fits for our group.

Not quite the right kind of RPGs for this community but exciting nonetheless!

I imagine there might be quite a few available on the PS store so don’t worry about it.

Enjoy! I’ve only played the first one but I enjoyed it enough to 100% it twice.

Yeah these games are quite story heavy so don’t start with Miles, play them in order.

Also, there’s only 3 games in the current series to my knowledge.

https://isthereanydeal.com/ is great for getting any given game at a good price. You can see where it is currently/usually cheapest, its price over time, etc. You can also set up notifications for when it drops below a certain threshold.

Looks good! Don’t forget to paint the base! A solid color like black is fine. It’s such a shame when it goes unpainted.

May be hit or miss but Moving Out (1 or 2) is a lot of fun. You spend most of your time failing to do anything and just laughing about how goofy it is.

I’m not a big Marvel fan (and know next to nothing about Blade) but he was one of my favorites in Midnight Suns (which is awesome) so I’m definitely looking forward to this.

Why? Considering how much design freedom Marvel allowed the devs with Midnight Suns I don’t see why it couldn’t be. What parts of the immersive sim genre do you think can’t be done in a mainstream game?

How does this compare to Emudeck?

Fantastic lighting work!

Better display, better form factor/ergonomics.

In theory, sure. But because of how small and chronological lemmy is you often end up with the same post several times in a row when it’s crossposted. Which can be frustrating. Not really your fault, but an annoyance nonetheless.

Still playing Slay The Spire and Hexcells as my “podcast games”.

Started Halls of Torment. Really cool aesthetically and some interesting boss designs. Hope it distinguishes itself more from Vampire Survivors though. Especially in having more incentives to keep playing than “numbers go up”. There are some minor story things and unique aspects of some maps that I think could really set this game apart.

Also playing Super Mario Sunshine. Honestly probably my least favorite 3D Mario to date. Besides feeling very clumsy it has some pretty sloppy level design here and there. Still a decent game, but having played Odyssey this game feels very dated.

Honestly couldn’t care less. But if that means more Jak & Daxter games then go ahead.

I actually love it. It looks like something the character in question would have painted themselves.
