STEAM | January 2017 - Time to get GAMEDUMPED

I can vaguely understand this sort of attitude as a natural part of console wars, at least at a certain age, but it's silly to think console and PC versions can't or shouldn't co-exist.

At least we still got a PC port of something coming from SEGA maybe or not in a year or two or three or never!

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
And here I thought people bought into Gamepump in the thought that it may go south, but will be a fun shitshow to have been a part of.
Like backing any Kickstarter from a former Squaresoft employee.

Well, at least in my case I don't get why people are happy but I'm just reassured in my purchase that I won't be getting an inferior port of a game, I'm not rich enough to double dip but own powerful PC and PS4 Pro so all the indecisiveness about exclusives usually affects my purchases.
If game is coming to PC I'll get it there, if not then PS4.
Doesn't work the same way if game from PC goes to console as the console version is most likely in some way "inferior" (no 1440p, fps etc.), sure some exceptions exist.
Personally I'm of the opinion that every third-party game should ideally be available on every system. First-party exclusives from Sony and Nintendo are obviously never going to happen as long as they want to sell hardware.
I'm not angry over Persona, more like slightly annoyed.
Obviously I have no numbers or anything, but from my perspective Atlus' moves are financially stupid in a time where more and more japanese publishers start releasing their backlog alongside their new games on Steam and seemingly being succesful enough with it to continue or even expand that initiative.

Don't remind me. The money from that Dreadstarter could've gone to some GAMEPUMP.

I'm an expert on Japanese corporate culture and that Atlus PR guy is bringing great shame to his company (and country!) with his unprofessional comments.
I'm I doing it right?

A) gamepump: $20 (although it's more for us Aussies) is not a great expense to test the waters
B) humble bundle AC edition: is there any indication there will be 2nd week unlocks?
C) persona (and all that other anime rpg stuff): isn't that why people buy sony consoles? Steam has its fair share, but you would/should never count on PC release...
Ok, back to grim Dawn

It doesn't look that way. Usually when they're going to add games on the second week there's the blank space with "and more games coming soon" or something under it.
and they've stopped doing that for a while actually, wonder why they stopped adding bonus games like they used to

Yes, I noticed nothing. Someone said they will wait for 2nd week, so I thought there was some leak or something that indicated there would be...
It's probably becoming increasingly harder to arrange good enough "surprise" additions.

That humble $1 tier suits me pretty well. I was only missing the last two Chronicles games in my Ass Creed collection.

PC version of Persona 5 is probably never happening..
but a Switch version? Pls. Very little chance Atlus doesn't do it. The Switch is gonna take over Japan by storm. Its gonna be the only powerful handheld in Japan for the next decade or so because you know damn well Sony isn't releasing another handheld. All these games of today and future are coming to the Switch. One way or another they are gonna make it over. That device is gonna double the sales of the 3DS long term probably and will easily be the most popular gaming device there since the DS/Gameboy.

So is GAMEPUMP (using the mutually agreed upon all caps name as is custom), going to actually have anything other than MSX games? I would find this pretty hilarious if all it becomes is basic Steam ports of MSX games.
I mean MSX has some dope games, so that isn't a bad thing, but I get the feeling that some people around here are getting GAMEPUMP'd a bit too hard.

Wow, that Humble Bundle. I have nearly all of those on Steam. If this would have included AC Rogue with all DLC it would have been insta-buy.
Somebody should write a script to periodically post this. I doubt the sentiment here will ever stop being applicable to Atlus.

PC port begging is bad
PS4 port begging is great
I remember why I tend to hate gaming side and just chill here generally, even if I don't post a ton.

I will probably bite on the Humble for those Chronicles ones. They seemed at least okay.

Working with japanese in the anime-sector (and I heard the videogame publishing sector isnt much different), they wont listen to reason...
The one making these decisions is some old japanese manager, who thinks PCs are for hentai-games and never even heard of Steam.
I learned that when the big SteamDB leak happened which included Halo 3. I was super excited, I expected Halo 3 to be annnounced for Steam any day. Here I am, no Halo 3 on Steam.
So yeah, until it happens I expect [insert japanese game] to never happen.
Chairmanchuck

Everything from the Steamleak last winter has been released on Steam in the last year (besides that troll HL3 entry) or is being released this year. Everything there has been confirmed.
Also Halo 3 was supposed to come to Steam before, but seems something changed.
Im not arguing about what happened from that leak, Im just saying I have a thought process of to never expect a japanese game to be releaseed on Steam until it happens. So I don't think Persona 5 will ever release on PC.
Picked up Grow Up during the sale, and I really don't like the direction they went with the game. While I like the idea of a larger world with more stuff as opposed to just the one plant, they made traversal way too easy. Instead of the parachute and glider being resources you can lose, you instead get them as permanent abilities very early on. Not only that, but your jetpack ends up getting really powerful with just a few uprades, so you can just use a combination of it and your glider to get anywhere you want. I was able to completely bypass growing one of the star plants and access the big islands above it by just boosting until my three batteries were empty, glide for a second until they refilled, then repeat.
The whole scanning and planting plants system sounds neat at first, but it's next to useless given how mobile BUD is now.
Not only that, but they ruined the glider controls by having them be relative to the camera instead of to BUD.

I went into the Altus thread. Immediately saw the same talking points about how PCs cost too much, dozens of false equivalence arguments, the same circular and false nonsense we've read a million times. Closed the thread.
I'm not invested enough in any forum to swim against the current. It's basically just SteamGaf now.
