Wow, I just got a free game Sine Mora EX for owning the old version. Also has cards. Thanks THQ.
Also found out that new Batman Telltale was out. Seems too soon for a sequel, but looks promising.

But 63% off on PSN, combined with the already lower base price makes the PS4 version currently 14,45.
Hello Games playing favorites.

So... Ni no Kuni II is getting both a physical and collector edition on PC too. This is great for lower priced Steam version.

Cat Quest is charming. This game is developped by 3 people (2 men and 1 woman) from Singapore: https://youtu.be/IMwo3pG79Fk
Kinda weird how back in February Gabe said they are working on 3 new VR games but the first thing they announce since is a card game. Maybe he meant they are working on 3 new games one of which is VR related? So a card game, a VR game and something else. Maybe all 3 are playable with VR. Either way I think Valve will be announcing more stuff in the future. It would be great if they actually show up to E3 next year to show off what they've been working on.
As someone who has played a ton of Hearthstone I am very excited for a Valve card game. Steam needs a big game like that. I know people are upset its not Half-Life but I think this could be huge for Valve.

Hellblade had more concurrent players in last 24 hours and it has more owners than LawBreakers. Both games released at same time and at same price and were in development for around same time. And Hellblade OT on GAF has more than double posts than LawBreakers OT. Really interesting situation.

Lawbreakers just had terrible marketing. Almost seemed like the devs didn't know what to do with the game. They first announced it as an F2P PC only game. Then they changed it to a 30$ PC and PS4 game a few months before release. They basically missed the boat on marketing it for consoles for nearly a year. And they aren't even releasing it on all the consoles. Also doesn't help when so many people think your game is an Overwatch wannabe with generic character design.
play the few that are entertaining??????????
Not that Hellblade had big marketing. Their marketing was more-less series of behind the scenes videos over the years.

Oh yeah. I just remembered it was announced as F2P. Why did they change that?
I hadn't heard of Hellblade till like a month ago when I wishlisted it. I remember Lawbreakers getting quite a lot of hype here and on some other forums - but I played it beta (the first one which was a while ago) and it was the most boring thing ever.
I don't think marketing has anything to do with how it's performing - it's just a boring game imo, even though ratings are high.

released now , lets hope it does well enough to warant full localization
Wow, this is way cheaper than I expected! I'll buy it right now and give it a try.
I won't say you're wrong (you're not), but what I wonder is: will this negative reaction affect the game in any way? I mean, people interested in card games will surely try it, whether they're angry or not with Valve for not releasing Half-life 3, and people who hate card games probably won't care for it anyway.
I don't feel like I'm smart enough (or perhaps enjoy puzzles enough) to enjoy Fez properly. I knew nothing about the game going in apart from the rotation mechanic and was expecting a quirky platformer. I ended up getting more puzzle solving than I expected and I keep getting lost across the map looking for things I've missed. 
Hellblade made it to Sony's stage at E3 several times iirc. Or maybe it was PSX. That is as good of a marketing any dev could have in todays industry. There is almost always hype trains for games that Sony market. Sometimes very big hype trains like No Man's Sky for example.
Lawbreakers marketing campaign consisted of CliffyB getting on stage at PC gamers show to make fun of anime and talk about how his game isn't like Overwatch. Oh and he dissed full price multiplayer only games. It was all just very awkward.

Use walkthroughs or guides.
nothing wrong with using from time to time if you are stuck in a game.
You can still make it into the market. But you need a good pitch.
Overwatch and PUBG show that established and new devs can still make a dent if they play their cards right.
Way ahead of you! Doesn't help my self esteem though....
I think I'm going to give Alpha Protocol a try next to tone down my brain ache.

No, he definitely said 3 VR games, all of which are quite different. So this is either one of them, or it's just made by a small team and not one of the three games. Either way I would be surprised if you couldn't play it in VR, since Dota already has a VR spectator mode.
Personally I would be a bit sad if 1/3 VR games was just a Dota card game, but what are ya gonna do.

Capcom Japan management doesn't like the AA series very much and is rather embarrassed that its as popular as it is.
I legit could believe this

Then explain why they've made a sequel to a spinoff (Great AA) whose first game sold moderately well at best?

You have to admire Valve's commitment to VR, seeing as less than one-half of one percent of Steam users have VR (at least according to the steam survey,) and only about one in eight have systems that are even capable of supporting it. It's pretty forward thinking.

It is. It's also, like the lack of a HL3 or other Valve-made AAA game, clearly a huge sore spot for a lot of gamers.
When they announce HLVR there is going to be such a shitstorm.
Idk I'm just saying I believe a Japanese publisher could think like that
I think Capcom Japan just doesn't believe that PC players exist. I would be like explaining to someone that you have seen a unicorn, a mermaid or a screenshot of Half Life 3. It just beggars belief.

Capcom USA has probably asked for AA and others on PC. Going by their relations with capcom Japan they probably told Capcom US to fuck off and stop bothering us.
Dragons Dogma was a case of extreme begging and "hey we could port it to consoles later"

On the topic of Artifact, the game will probably be good, me and others like me are just frustrated Valve hasn't released a new game matching our sensibilities in six years.

As long as they dont release Ace Attorney, that's for sure.
Heck, they're selling AA1-2-3 FOR 15 BUCKS on iOS. At this price, it'd fly off the shelves on Steam.

This is an Enhanced Steam feature, just to pre-empt the inevitable question.
