I thought you were saying they replaced it with the Impact award, but it seems to still be there... I have absolutely no idea what GFC is supposed to be, looking at the nominees. I guess innovative titles?
Edit: Nevermind, I've finally found a list of the award winners, and LiS won Games For Change. IMPACT!

Have you guys heard of this game Pankapu? It's a 2D action platformer, but it looks pretty good and apparently has music from the Secret of Mana guy, just like Indivisible.
The world map looks so nice:
It's 7k short of its goal with 7 days to go, so it'll prob get funded. It's weird because it's a part of the Square Enix Collective thing? I thought nothing ever came from that initiative.

They started their own platform. Well, not their own, but Tim is heavily involved.
Is this so that they can skip paying the fees to Kickstarter and keep more money in their pockets?

They are trying to approach it from a slightly different direction. They want to give people the chance to actually invest money into projects for a potential return.

Only saw the last half of TGA, drunk Mark Hamill and Jade Raymond made it worthwhile. Lots of shade at the end, was fine with the GOTY, feel bad for Bloodborne.
Debating Shadow Complex; free is free, but Steam, Origin, and Galaxy are already enough clients for me. Hopefully I can still grab it next week after coming back from DC.
Will probably back Psychonauts 2, don't feel betrayed by Tim really.

So from what I understand the Keighleigh's were a bag of shite , stuff full with marketing nonsense and the only good bit were Geoff doing what Geoff does best, journalism. Well I could say I tried to warn you folks but it seems that what a lot of you are after anyways. I don't know.
Though Shadow Complex? For free? On PC? Oh Tim Sweeny I could kiss you! Smart move by Epic tethering it to their launcher though. Hopefully more peeps check it out, try a little UT, maybe even toy around with UE4. Granted I'd have loved it on Steam but hey Epic wants to grow their platform and you can't argue with the price.

I'm surprised people are making such a big deal about the Epic Launcher, like how have you fools been playing the new Unreal Tournament?!?

People are actually playing the new UT?
...I mean, I know they are, but I still feel the need to ask.
Nah it was fine show. Nice tributes, announcements and funny moments. I don't care about ads.

el oh el
I don;t think that game will ever come to Steam. They will just charge for it in their Store.
That question is impossible to answer, but highly doubtful.

Yeah, it's really fun, and free, just like Shadow Complex Remastered, free for the Holidays, exclusively on Epic Game Launcher!

I don't.
I really don't want to bother with yet another game client, Blizzard gets away with Battle.net because the client could be bypassed.
I think it will come, why they should give up on such a big marketplace?
This seems the typical situation in which "we release it in our store first, on other stores later", like SE did with FFVII.
Why? They gave it for free day 1 for a whole month, they have Unreal engine so they don't care about Shadow Complex profitability, but they care about expanding their platform and expanding their user base.
And this is why they are giving it, for free, for one month. To expand their user base. And well, it worked. But of course the game is profitable, if they ported it, they want to do money out of it, so it will reach Steam eventually. Otherwise they wouldn't port it.

So we can actually have a new game written by Wolpaw again!
People just have to crowdfund it! Neat.

I just don't want to deal with more clients. I don't want to have to deal with maintaining seperate passwords, user sign-in, authenticators, and what not for multiple clients and services when that's kind of what you need to do with every single major published game these days.
It's not just games, it's bleeding into everything.

...on Fig.
Though I'm sure Urquhart, Frago, and Schafer wanted a marquee product to highlight the service, after Double Fine's antics with their last couple of projects this is going to be 'interesting' to watch unfold.
FINALLY , a Batman game that will give you a true cinematic experience at 24 FPS
New engine or gtfo
More Nep games? Good lord, i think i'll never be able to catch up in any way.
That's neat.

The Escapists gets festive free Santa's Sweatshop DLC
Arresting.
Arresting.
Indie prison role-player The Escapists will get free Christmas DLC on 8th December, titled Santa's Sweatshop.
The add-on will launch on the same date for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Santa's Sweatshop will add a new festive level where elves are living behind bars, forced to make toys for Father Christmas.
After 20 years of being an enslaved elf, it's time to go Dobby on your bearded master and take back Christmas for yourself.
It sounds like there's a fair amount new for players to be presented with - fresh jobs, characters, dialogue, items and craftables to discover, plus more achievements and a festive soundtrack.

Man, the forth chapter of Dreamfall Chapters gets DARK. Haven't been many games that have touched some of the things it has going on.

I have it, but never played it. Heard it isn't good and falls short of what it sets out to accomplish.
On the other hand, it has a redhead.

The Progress Quest is real, huh.
Watch the BBF Quick Look and choose nay all on your own.
The Risen series is a better source of eurojank.

With the way TT is announcing new games I don't see them writing a new engine. Maybe fixing the bugs people experience their current one now or smoothing out the kinks in production that seem to keep cropping up, but unless they suddenly stop or slow down acquiring projects, I don't think so.
That is gross, but I'm sorta doing that with Rogue right now. So I guess I shouldn't judge!
