I'm a pessimist .___.
Is it longer/more challenging than the first? I enjoyed it, but games that are built to be one-and-done are a tough sell for me
EDIT: HLTB claims an hour more than the original.

So if anyone needs a game for the next sale and loves Metroidvania games, I can recommend Rabi-Ribi.
You want sexy bunnies? Check!
You want the Metroidvania experience? Check!
You want great music? Check!

You want hard/challenging bosses? Check!
It is really a great game! It will make gamers cry like an anime fan on prom night.

Anime ... not even once.
Don't know of a site the tracks viewership, but I feel like CSGO is at a record right now at 300k+, 200k+ for the current tourney. Pretty wild since most of NA is hungover right now and GDQ is siphoning off a lot of other casual viewers.

ESL CSGO had 350k before

The least they could do is put a early buyer discount given that it's releasing for 'free' on another platform. I'm just not inclined to buy full priced stuff a day after the big sale. Going to be tough to resist Inside which also releases soonish.

A question about the review, you put easy difficulty as a negative, is that because it makes the game too easy?
freshVeggie
Member
Oh there is a misunderstanding. I didn't do the review at Gamersyde. I'm merely linking to it but I assume the balancing on Easy Difficulty is not satisfying.

Man, I feel underwhelmed by the Sale. I picked stuff up but its like whatevs..
As RhakRhak previously said Ghost 1.0 is good.
Italian translation is a bit weird here and there and the humor can be hit or miss (mostly hit with me) but the gameplay is tight and the art and animations are pretty good. The narration style reminds me a bit of the old cyberpunk games.
First non regret from the Sumer Sale.

Oh, I swear you often post them i thought you worked there, my bad.
Oh. Guess I'll play it, on PlayStation. I ignore most ps+ freebies but this is one I can get behind. Thanks.
play your games, hopefully they aren't as "underwhelming." ¯_(ツ

Furi on PS Plus and Inside coming to Steam all in this week. Great week so far.
A question: is there a way to enlarge the portion of the screen showed?
The game, like Unepic, is too small for me.
Well Zenge was nice casual puzzle game. Easy to pick up an what I appreciated most is that it found the balance for me between being challenging enough to use the brain but not so hard to get stuck. Every time i though the next level may be a nightmare if its more complex than the previous, it gently introduced some new mechanics instead and kept it fresh. Worth the dollar if you ask me, but it was also already bundled on at least two occasions.
Man, Sega really is cementing a hold on the strategy genre on PC. Don't see any real trouble with that, except we'll probably have a ton of cosmetic DLC for Endless Legend 2.
I just got to that "im OP now motherfuckers come at me" point that you get in every one of these games with enough upgrades and damn it feels good. 9 hours in, not sure how long it is, I have all the keys now to access every zone, cant imagine its much longer.
This cat knows how to make one of these games let me tell you, it builds on everything that he did in unepic and improves on it a lot (well except maybe lenght assuming Im near the end, UnEpic was twice as long, but we'll see)
Not that I know.

Yeah the European PC centric arm of Sega is doing fine. It's the rest of Sega that's in shambles.
Browsed the overclock forums for a bit and found a person who poked the sides of their 60$ mouse with a soldering iron, the end result is...
well I'll let you see for yourself.
warning you, though.
Thought it was insect larvae holes first, but why would you do that?

5 hours in and I haven't figured out the 'repetitiveness' issue w/ Mad Max.
Then I looked at the map. Jesus, this could be a problem.

One big part is filled with little more than desert and one is very small with few things to do.
The person claimed it was to add more grip. It's so freakish, I've been getting shivers the whole time and I haven't even looked at it since then

I'm not normally a collect all the collectables kind of person. I'll get towards the end of say, a AC game intending to do everything then suddenly I'll just say "fuck it" and finish the game and move on. I just loved existing in the Mad Max world so even after 60+ hours I was going strong.

I was reading somewhere that a bunch of holes close together in a semi organic style is a universal fear across cultures.
I think he would be better off adding some sort of traction sticker.
You will. The first like 3rd of the game is pretty good but then you'll realize all the strongholds are the same and of barely any consequence, the missions start to feel barely different, the upgrades don't make the combat any more fun, etc. Even the car combat and the convoys that are the sole standouts end up devolving into the same tactics as the cars get too much armor and health.

We just bought the actual card game yesterday and played it last night. It was a lot of fun! Side note: this is the first sale that I didn't buy a game for myself. Feels a little weird but I blame my overwatch addiction.

Me neither. I remember feeling that they tried to do too many things at once and consequently didn't do any of those things really well. Did they ever fix that annoying bug where NPC dialogue audio files would cut out mid way through a sentence if you said something?
Looks like Romance of the Three Kingdoms just got it's English language patch. Kind of tempted to check out the game to figure out why it's so popular.
I would be much more tempted if it had cheevos like console versions and a better price.
Like it is now, I can wait
