Hand of Fate is out, I did not know that. I played a bit on early access and it seemed super neat

Overwatch has to be the least aesthetically pleasing games of the last decade.

What is this I'm reading?

Overwatch is probably the one game that has appealed to me most this entire generation. The artstyle is magnificent and I'm loving all of the colors, and especially character designs. If Tracer is the protagonist, she's one of the best in recent years.

Duck Dynasty is cheaper in Mexico but Mexicans can't trade with Americans? wtf

Trump/Newell 2016

This is a sign. First my favorite pornstar tells me one of her favorite games is Dynasty Ducks today, and now you tell me, it is cheaper in the Mexican store. I got to check this out now!

character design is a bit uneven

i mean compare soldier 76 and tracer


or zarya and lucio


or d.va and symmetra


(used palette swap skin pictures cos it was easiest to find, but these aren't the default colors for anyone

like they're all combat suits but their spells and personalities and whatnot are pretty fun and attractive. and then u have really generic like a dude called 'soldier 76'. i mean, cmon

but idk, i still love how it looks, it's super clean and stylish and it's kind of modernized 90s cartoon superheroes, i love it

Keep talking like that and you may receive a work offer from Ubi or EA. Heck, even Activision.

and who says.. er.. nm... ;)

but in all seriousness, the QA of games nowadays is.. questionable at best and i don't see it changing because the general consumer seems to think it is alright.
 
Idle Master seems to have been undone by Steam. No drops for two days now.

I surely cannot be expected to play all these shitty games.

I still got a Portal gift it someone doesn't have it.

EDIT - I have a bite for Portal.
 
One request before I go to bed, SteamGaf. Please spoiler Wrestlemania stuff from tonight. I'll be checking only this thread tomorrow and I'd hate for it to be spoiled before I get home to watch it after work.

Good night!

Yeah, I know it, I've discovered Jim Sterling videos recently and I already have my daily dosis of: the gaming industry is fucked up.
It really sucks.

Still don't understand how Soldier 76 is the hero they decided to go with for the collector edition statute. The must generic guy they got.

Well damn. I just lost in this war of mine (got up to
day 17
). Lost 2 of my people the same night, then one
fled
, and one
commited suicide 2 days later.
Damn does this game hit hard.

Right before my cook died, I sent him scavenging at an abandoned house. I saw somebody and I couldn't hide from her. I thought it would be fine.
She got scared, called for her partner. I tried to flee but they were chasing me. I didn't even know if they wanted to hurt me or not. I tried to hide in the shadows and they pulled me out. They were both holding knives.
I tried to defend myself and ended up killing the man. The woman dropped to her knees and cried while I fled, severely wounded.

Damn does this game hit hard.

Overwatch's art is fair but it's got nothing on TF2 which boasts the best character designs in a multiplayer game

Would legit watch a full-length movie featuring those guys

Also Soldier 76 sucks

They probably want to have a generic soldier dude to appeal to people who like generic soldier dude shooters, there are still plenty of people buying them.

Plus, you probably know more about moba style skill sets than I do, but I often kinda default to more generic characters in class based stuff, at least at first, since I intuitively know what they do, which makes learning the rest of the game a bit easier.

Starbound is (finally) leaving early access soon

"Soon"

How does something that isnt even actually out go silently into the night?

It was all the hype come release even as early access. Then it just died off. I don't see much fan fare happening for its "release". Not compared to how it launched anyway.

That game went EA way too soon. EA should be for games that are enjoyable in their current state, but need time for more content and polish.

I played a little bit of TRANSOCEAN instead of just idling and it's pretty fun..

hope the sequel gets good reviews

I distinctly remember everyone praising Starbound for having a clear Early Access schedule, pushing quick and responsible updates, leading everyone to believe it wouldn't be in the program for over a year. I remember it being 10th in SteamGAF GOTY voting despite being out for like two weeks total.

Then it kind of languished throughout various development troubles and vanished from public consciousness. I'm excited to return to it, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't super frustrated at how long it has taken. It was the game that ultimately burned me on buying Early Access games in general.
