STEAM | October 2014 - Proper PC gamers buy a Wii U and Bayonetta 2

Well Keiji Inafune was on kickstarter with mighty no9, and PG was open to the idea of using kickstarter funding and self publishing on steam.

This is however 2 years old so we don't know if they're still "interested".
Didn't Xenoblade bombed hard in Japan? I vaguely remember it not selling good enough to be localized in the west and we had to have huge worldwide campaign to get it and two other games, one of them is JRPG too, other more like AA game.
Speaking of Korra, I hope GMG will sell it. According to this tweet, they won't be selling COD: Advanced Warfare. I saved all my credit just for Korra 
I wonder what's Activision's problem with GMG.

I've put in over 70 hours playing 100% orange juice multi, its fun -if you don't mind losing cause of rng-
They released two more characters as dlc btw, its $1.50.
That was a reaction to my statement of Secret of the Magic Crystals which involves horses. So palm something else.
I am getting it no matter what. Because Activision has a bad history on licensed games. I already missed Deadpool because I didn't buy it before it's removal in Steam Store

Ugh facepalms for both pony korra and thst
And that's fair enough so with what you guys have already decided you can kind of not worry about if it get's reviewed or not regardless. It's just the way most of us are moving with our purchasing decisions for a while. Personally I don't have a clue what a Korra is all I know it's somehow related to an Avatar (the thing maneil99 freaked out about not the film). I'll probably keep an eye out for a GiantBomb QL

Hey I bought it and it was one of the best games I played last year. It's just everybody else who missed out!
Actually that's a bloody good point. At least with 007 Legends and Deadpool you could still grab retail copies that activated on Steam. No chance here being digital only.
Yeah only 16,000 copies in Japan. Honestly though in Japan people prefer mobile/handheld and PC gaming more than consoles. So that might be partly reason why. I thought Xenoblade Chronicles got pretty great reviews so its not like the game was bad. (Never play it)
I remember watching video where some gaming news outlet ask a bunch of people in a Japanese games event on whether they will buy a PS4, Xbone or skip and wait.
Most answered that they rather wait, since they like mobile and handheld gaming better.
Completely agree. Almost doubly amusing that I could bet any similar game but with a man, and all those crotch, ass and other "empowering shots", would be completely lambasted.

MGR got lambasted? GoW too? where? (><)

It's also only $15 so even if it somehow wasn't fun to play, it wouldn't be a huge loss. Plus, it's Korra. Everything Avatar / Korra warms the depths of my cynical soul, no matter how shitty. Lol
I have the same absolute devotion to anything Lord Of The Rings related. Lol

I'm just gonna get it cuz it's Platinum and I like the show.

Duh GMG Credit and the fact that GMG offer discount codes. Acti wants all the money it can get.
Where are the crotch shots that are so overwhemingly over the top though? Where is the camera that is constantly focused on tits, ass or crotch in the middle of conversation? Displaying sexuality is absolutely fine, but going overboard with it is a grey area and really depends on the context. When direction is overly purvy when there really is no need to be, I see it as such. The MGS series and Bayonetta do exemplify this shitty direction in my opinion. Even in the metal gear V trailer with quiet - why do I need to have the camera centred on Quiet's ass while she is fighting? I want to see her pumel the shit out of the other guy, not see her ass on that occassion. Same mid-way through conversations. Those screaming girls in MGS IV are another example of that. The direction is abysmal and made for a pre-pubesant child. My housemates were in complete agreement at the time regarding MGSIV
0.16m = 160,000 copies
More importantly: seriously don't use Chartz. It's banned from GAF for a reason
Reportedly it's only a few hours long, though.

Bayo is an overthetop game though.
But that's not the point. People can dislike what they want, I don't like many games too, I'm not fan of fanservice in general also. But I don't care for condescending tone this discussion has taken thanks to aku which is our local analogue of "gaming site fishing for hits with overstated opinions".
That is all.
I need to play with dlc, have it already. Do those characters have story mode too?

There was a lot of Raiden Ass in MGR.
Hell just ass in general.

Oh I completely agree with that. Everyone has their own opinions and some people are gonna like that stuff and not see it in such a way anyway. It's always good to have such games and challenge convention anyway, otherwise shit would be boring and nothing new would happen. Also games are entirely fictional and every single aspect of the worlds are built entirely by people - something not really possible in any other medium, so they hardly need to be focused on such realistic aesthetics. Equally, no one needs to like everything either. There of plenty of games like these that I still thoroughly enjoy. I don't think anyone should be judging a person based on playing those games for that reason.

I think they're not thrilled about the discounts GMG offers on all games and pre-orders. They'd likely want to maintain the image that COD games hold their price (like Nintendo) and thus push more full price sales.
Although GMG could just as easily disable coupons for the game so it's likely I'm talking out of my ass here.

Cool I'm down for short games, and $15 is a sweet spot for me too.
I mean heck I'm taking my relatives out for dinner tonight and by my estimate I'll be spending $15 per head for the meal we're ordering :V
I'm gonna buy it regardless simply because it stars Korra and I like her design, despite only having watched the Avatar: The Last Airbender cartoon.

No, it doesn't, I liked it, at least the 10 or 20 hours I played.
Deus Ex HR and Civ 5 are on sale at gamersgate if there is a lone soul that don't have those yet.
When other sites (not steam, we know steam sale starts on 30th) usually starts their halloween sales, I can't remember for the life of me.
very funny!

October.

Yeah, it uses Steamworks now.
I'm buying it, no matter the review scores.
Nope. Doesn't matter to me really since the campaign is tedious, I didn't even unlock Tomomo.

My tastes in action games generally differ from many reviewers so I probably won't pay too much attention to them unless it's in the sub 60s or something. If I were to wait with my purchase (which I'm not), I'd look for impressions by some of the posters that are active in other action game OTs. But really, the only thing that's keeping me off buying the game is that the pre-order isn't up on Steam.
oh Odin! It even has fishing! Now it will be triple hard to wait for it. What have you done?!
And that another one that looked really nice, Wild Season? isn't coming anytime soon too?
Or there are more of them in the making now?
Good thing the second best game of the year came out last week, so it had some room to breathe.
