A game that actively kills its own userbase. Wow.



The concept itself isn't terrible, but it shouldnt be "one life only ever". A game built around that gave you a life each week (and server reset at the end of the week) would be a much better idea.

I was laughing reading the Greenlight page.

So:

- it's not F2P
- you only get one life
- you can't access the game again if you die
- the developers state that you can create another Steam/in-game account (doesn't lock out your actual Steam profile, just the game itself) and play it, and pay $10 again to restart the process

The comments on their page are right. "You need to fire your project manager", indeed. This is a recipe for a bunch of angry people asking for refunds.

Is anyone using an Xbox one controller with Zestiria? It doesn't seem to work, wondering if I'm doing something wrong.

Edit: It seems to default to keyboard and mouse on startup. Just went to the menu and changed the controller and good to go!

There's a patch coming out for this today apparently, but to copy and paste from the Steam forums (developer posting):

We have detected a bug that we are in the process of fixing. Unfortunately, it won’t be resolved by tonight, but thankfully there’s an easy fix!

When installing the game for the first time (without old game configuration), remapping any key on the keyboard will not work until the next game launch. Please close the game and restart. Doing this will resolve this issue.

We apologize for the inconvenience and we’ll keep you posted regarding the upcoming fix in the coming days. Thank you again for supporting Tales of Zestiria on PC!

The same thing people have said happens to controllers as well, basically changing keys. If that doesn't work, there's a bit more I'm sure we can dig into.

Zestira is another one of those games that saves so quick that there's no progress prompt it just saves in a nanosecond (well maybe a bit longer than that).

I like the idea, it's a nice experiment, but it definitely needs to be F2P.

Damn, owning RE4 on PC just in time for the HD mod is great news to come back to.
I'm sorry for all those times I've dissed you, Capcom-san.

Yeah, I keep thinking the same thing - that maybe there's hope yet to get the community on board to crowd-source all these great custom configurations that Valve keeps talking about. I'm definitely not getting rid of the Steam controller any time soon, but I don't think it will ever fully replace my "dedicated" controller that has dual analog sticks.

"Native support" in games would be great - but let's be honest here. PC ports are typically an afterthought for most big games, and thinking that most new games on Steam will ship with this unique control scheme in mind is just setting yourself up for disappointment.

I think it'd be dumb to underestimate Valve's reach. I mean, looking at the ton of games that've come to SteamOS, and Linux in its own right, because of Valve's initiatives, I'm not entirely convinced that we wont be seeing native support by some big publishers. WB, Paradox and Devolver* (*on a game-by-game basis, anyway) wouldn't end up surprising me too much.

Beat RE4 on PS2 many years ago; had fun even if it was the weaker version. Next one I get will be Zero, even though it's sat unplayed on my GameCube since the mid-2000's.

Sounds like a good time to jump in. It's only the best in the series and one of the best games of its generation.
Click to expand...

It's not the best in the series at all, it ruined the series and completely overrated by people. It's only RE in name, for a non RE game it is pretty good and fun though.

The aiming in the Wii version was so godly, it made the game easy. Does mouse beat it?


I'm aware some people hate the Wii version because the aiming is TOO good, while they could just connect a GC controller heh. I'm just wondering about the PC version. :)

There's 4 although maybe I shouldn't count revelations 2: ep 1 since it's obviously not the full game.

My bad. I forgot RE:R was in it.
I think the newer versions of the game have alternate "non-tank" style controls, but don't quote me on it. They're fantastic games, but even if you don't like them, you're still getting the rest of the games you do want for a steal of a price. Just give the RE games to a friend or redeem 'em and give em another whirl. (Or you could go piece out the parts you don't want on trading forums, I suppose).

Wow. Your opinions never cease to amaze me.

If you had gamecube why wouldn't you get the superior version which came out earlier as well?

Price point? Extra content? Gift? Didn't have the GCN when RE4 was purchased? I'm sure there were reasons.

Third person shooter with more action?
Some people really don't like the direction the series took starting with 4.
