Also Game Dev Tycoon's developers second game is also about Tavern management named Tavern Keeper.

Tavern Keeper looks good, I just hope that the game systems are significantly more clear cut than the ones featured in Game Dev Tycoon. That review system was an incomprehensible mess.

The streams aren't perfectly level with each other and there is some white peeping out of the side with the company logo on the left.

I noticed both but it is Sunday and i was lazy to fix it XD Also i am need to heck timezones but i will wait for all companies to announce times then i will make sure that times are converted to correct time zone (BST or BR, PST or PT...). Maybe i will change them completely multiple times before E3 who knows But i like to see early feedback.

 

[Knurek]

It is.

The problem is going back to something which you can't run with 8xSGSSAA afterwards.

So jelly.
I had to stick with 4xSGSSAA at 1080p.
Anything more starts the fans on my GPU, and I prefer to have it passively cooled for as long as possible.
(Game still looks amazingly clean)

like nights of azure...



oh yeah that makes sense, i think shanks has some time stopping power too right

Apparently that's non canon and was just put into the games? Foxy has the Slow Slow Fruit though.

I still wait for the inevitable 75% on Burning Blood. It was 60% a lot in the past few weeks almost everywhere. Also sold pretty bad it seems. Wonder if now, that its available on the Chinese store since a few days, if that will change. At least it seems like it, since its been unlocked for 1 week and 3% of the total owners are chinese without any (Steam) sale.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Rimworld has kind of killed my interest in tycoon games. It's somehow very good at scratching that itch. Just the right mix of building, management, and cutthroat action RPG. (I'm embracing the new definition of ARPG.)

Paradox Grand Strategy all but did the same to me for Civilization.

Is this the one where the graphics options don't do jack, which effectively means that the PC port is graphically on par with the Vita version?

It's not threadworthy because they were all given away in Humble Bundles and in Steamsales and generally only the pcportbegrace cares about japanese games sales on steam while hiding behind things like "preserveration" or "framerate"

It could've if TiTS wasn't a 2006 era game sold for 30 dollars. There's a reason why FC sold an additionnal 100k AFTER SC release. It's not because of sequel retention, it's because not only the titles are confusing, but XSeed basically stealth released it, with a higher price point. Now of course, in term of revenue, it may work out better for them.

Well they're doing 3rd and didn't deep discount it as quickly as Ys6 so they must not be too dissatisfied with sales

Now they really need to get Cold Steel 1 & 2 in there, being newer games I wouldn't be surprised if CS2 does better than SC

Also need some bundles with a decent discount

It'd definitely would cause the perceived value is higher.

You also forgot it's irrelevant because the game is not published exclusively on Sony® PlayStation 4™

 

[Durante]

How did you enable 8xSGSSAA for Atelier Sophie? I tried messing around with it, and all I got were crashes.

It's quite straigtforward:

Personally, I haven't had a crash in the game in 30+ hours of playing it.

 

[Knurek]

40k owners is seriously impressive considering the lack of promotion XSEED did for the title.
Look at Xanadu Next.
Small wonder Falcom looks at other business partners when it comes to their game releases. NISA may not give the translation TLC XSeed does, and they may not employ wizard-level hackers like Sara or Durante, but at least they are willing to promote, advertise and just about do anything to gain sales.

Plus with NISA handling Ys VIII, there's dual audio, unlike XSEED published Falcom titles.

TitS sequel retention is in line with the how many people have finished FC, unfortunately only around 12% of players have beat it.

I could swear sc was still at around 30k that's actually good to hear there's some growth

Tbf Xanadu is kinda of a hard sell already, but yeah they are trying to rely too much on word of mouth and such for these games

Plus with NISA handling Ys VIII, there's dual audio, unlike XSEED published Falcom titles.

They're even going as far as doing a French translation which i'm sure XSEED can't provide
They even got a hold of the original script if the steam page is to be believed which is something unfortunately rare for japanese game's western releases

TitS sequel retention is in line with the how many people have finished FC, unfortunately only around 12% of players have beat it.

Yeah I noticed, people don't play games

Btw if you strip the gift link of the ?redeemer=<email> portion does the email it still appear in the gift message or no? I assumed not since I don't recall it in any of the giveaway messages from ModBot raffles but I've also read elsewhere it does.

The e-mail address associated with your account is what is shown in the gift message. There's no getting around that, unfortunately.

Huh. So what's then the point of stripping it from ModBot PMs, to be hidden from the moderators?

Edit: I guess I was thinking narrowly for when the URL matches that of the account but that mightn't always be the case.

 

[Parsnip]

Speaking of Atelier being a pretty game, are anyone else's shadows broken? Well, some shadows. For example when I approach the private house that Fritz is staying in, the shadow on the door frame flicker and it's really distracting. It happens elsewhere too but that one's easy to test. Couldn't find a solution to it.

[Stumpokapow]

Please expect a little bit of ModBot downtime right now. The server ModBot is on was working fine but non-responsive to SSH attempts, and when I rebooted it it didn't come back up at all. I have a ticket in with the server company, but their response times have historically been pretty poor.

The shadows on vertical surfaces which are oriented towards specific directions in world space are broken from specific camera distances. I reported this before launch already, and it might have gotten a bit less common, but it's not entirely fixed.

It's REALLY bad in Azure. I doubt they'll do anything to fix that game. I'm choosing to beat that first in hopes that everything gets ironed out with Sophie before I move on to that.

Edit: Some of the reviews say the game straight up doesn't work on Windows 10. Anyone confirm this?

It works on Windows 10, but it is not a good port. There's a memory leak issue with it that degrades performance. If you lock it to 30 FPS you shouldn't have any issues. You can also use Cheat Engine to give you higher resolution in game.

It's a very good looking game and decently fun if you can get past performance issues. Which I can't. It pisses me off that not even my Titan XP can push past the memory leak issue. Frame rate starts at 60 but after 15 minutes it's down to 40FPS and is a jittery mess.
