Cuphead selling more than 250k copies on Steam in 5 days is really surprising to me. I was expecting this game to sell well, but not like this. These numbers are huge.
So far it's my GOTY together with RiME, Hellblade and What Remains of Edith Finch. Life is Strange: Before the Storm will probably join them but i don't think that we are getting 3rd episode this year. For me Cuphead is one of the best things that happened to gaming in last few years.

Does it get easier to watch from Episode 12 onward? I feel like it's starting to drag on. It doesn't help that Lynch likes hold most scenes just a tad too long. I get that this is deliberate, but after a dozen hours, it's starting to bother me a lot.
unless they upgraded the 3D models, textures and such ..

The moment Cooper "wakes up" after the slow burn that was everything prior was such a relief and the long standing threads of the season end up mostly resolved. Then we end up with... Richard? Linda? Carrie Page? What year is it?
I have a hard time disagreeing. Steven Universe is also anime AF and there's a legit Steven Universe reference in The Return so it all leads down the same dark path doesn't it.
Yes and no. Things move along and all the pieces are coming into place, but it's still going to have a lot of drawn out slow moments. The last episode especially.
So I found from the forums a way to get it.
Uninstall the game. Then try to run the free dlc, it tries to install, and it fails.
It adds it to your licenses though.
Whyyyyy, kind of nostalgic of like gaming back in the 90's when you had to tweak everything lol
That seems like something that would've been mentioned in the press release.
Strange. Just goes to show that everything has its price.

Really loved how almost every subplot ended in unexpected ways, even ones that took half the season to reach.
I move car.
Still thinking about it a lot. Hoping Kyle MacLachlan gets a lot of love for the effort he put into
essentially playing 4 shades of the same character, right down to the spiritually broken 'richard' coop at the end, which had mannerisms from each that he shifted between.
Lynch's style permeates every last minute of the final stretch of episodes, so you're gonna run into some sequences with very Lento pacing. I'd love to say you should keep going, since there's so much you have yet to see, but it really depends on how much you're invested in seeing some of these plot threads tie up (or drop off entirely).

I've played the Beta, it's a fantastic game. I will be going ahead with making the OT for it.
However - please don't belittle others' incredibly valid concerns about the fact that a white supremacist is involved with the game.

thx for info , was afraid it will be a bit messy like Y-L
yeah i get the concerns ... but doing couple lines of VO isnt anything i would call involvement
... maybe i am just pissed that everything must be politicised these days and i just want to enjoy my hobby, there is enough politics on TV and internet and child platformers like this isnt really the place where should i care about politics

Games do not exist in a vacuum.
Everything is inherently political whether you like it or not.

MMO publishers see Steam as a platform to give their games a 2nd life.
Second Life coming to Steam confirmed.
But yeah, you're pretty much right. MMO companies try to make it on their own, and when they stagnate they decide that now it's okay to give Valve 30% to keep it going because it's better than ending it all. Part of me thinks "well if they just simultaneously released on Steam in the first place, things would be better for them," but another part argues that Steam users would be quicker to move on and it would be worse for the company overall.
sure in a way especially if its war game or something
but why should i care only about this random youtuber who did just couple lines (aka his involvement in the game is absolutely minimal) and not about political views of other voice talent s?.... and why not care about the actuall developers who made the game ???
Is it because youtubing is cool these days and this guy is known extremiest??
Maybe i am just "countryman" from middle of europe , but this feels way too overblown.... and to be honest makes me sad as i cant wait to play the game with my little cousin and only thing i see about this game is politics

Just a result of Steamspy's variations, today it shows 29k, yesterday it showed 32k, before yesterday it showed 34k, steamspy numbers go up and down all the time due to how uncertain they are, picking a single day and comparing it with a single day from a month before is just not accurate at all.
The actual sales numbers are even higher than that.
Ys 7 I grant you, but Trails is a really decent number at launch for a late port. Certainly profitable for XSEED/Falcom.

Definitely tempted to pick up Thimbleweed Park on sale at Humble... but if I do, its guaranteed to be in the bundle on Friday.
I'm just informing you that this is the year of Falcom, and not having any Falcom game on your goty list will result in your gamer id card revoked, and you can end up in the virtual prison where you'll have to play cheevo spam games for eternity. So think before you do!
so you say those sales are not disappointing?
seriously? are we having this talk again?

Wow @ Marvel vs Capcom Infinte below 25K. It'll be hard to find online matches soon. Good luck if you want those netplay-related cheevos.
NieR: Automata
Umineko Chiru
Cosmic Star Heroine
999
VLR
How can one fit Falcom in all of this greatness?
One million dollars of revenue (not profit, mind you) from Steam version alone? In what world is that disappointing?
The main problem with A Hat in Time is that the developer didn't bother to release any kind of statement distancing themselves from the dude (we share no views with youtuber x would go a long way).
At least this isn't a case like that cyberpunk game, in which the disgusting beliefs of the people making it are represented in the actual game scenario/story, so it's somewhat easier to dismiss the disgusting racist voicing some npc as something minor, even if some people go overboard imo (someone in that thread was implying Bernardo is a white supremacist supporter lol).
999 and VLR are technically one game this time around

Well, other games have more stable graphs, i think in case of Agents of Mayhem it's not just usual steamspy variations, they probably getting a lot refunds since game still runs like crap on 80% of current market GPU's, i had very inconsistent performances on my GTX 770.
betrayalton!
I liked Cosmic Star Heroine well enough, but rating it above Trails 3rd?! no way
I'm disappointed, sue me!
my expectation were not that low
and it is a relatively new game, at least compared to other Trails games, so old port argument doesn't really apply, does it?
People are saying it's updated graphics. Water is apparently better and some other stuff.

Careful Knurek. I'd edit that post.
2 years later after PS3/Vita. Late port is important because the Trails audience is fairly limited in West. So you're skipping a lot of them if you have such a wide gap.
Cold Steel didn't need a two year long translation of a massive script. It was just about getting the PS3 version running on PC. That's still work, but it costs significantly less. Also, since it doesn't have to sell well on PC to justify a PC port (since the future Trails games are coming to PS4 in the west anyway), there really is no reason to fear that XSeed will stop porting them. Even 10K, within a year, is good enough.
Jawmuncher
Member
At this point i'm assuming and port by Xseed is just them future proofing things. PC games have legs if the port is good and a good port also means porting to other platforms is easier/cheaper. Which is better than constantly porting to new consoles with no PC port.
It's essentially what Capcom has been doing this gen with their ports after all.

Battle Chasers is pretty good so far, played 2-3 hours earlier, the art is fantastic, would like a little more VO. The game is pretty easy early on, though you can up the difficulty in the dungeons for better loot.
