Switch 2 turns out to be nothing but amibos and companion mobile apps
If Nintendo ever loses their pipeline of new kids becoming invested in Mario
That's kind of what has been happening to Disney, their iconic characters/brands are becoming less and less of a draw
Also
@Lute
An update is finally maybe coming out
Replying to Dialga #god_of_time hey elder scrolls 6 too spooky
You joke about this but
100% skyrim will be released still and have more staying power than ES6

I choose to believe those are yours
and Vinny is frantically trying to DM you to buy them
ok that's super cool
Valheim announced this roadmap in 2022
Ok, I read into the Embracer split
it's actually genius
normies will think that "Embracer" the company that they hate because capitalism bad, is gone
and all of their corporate debt gets essentially wiped because they've figured out a way to offload it all onto a board gaming subsidiary that encompasses something like 85% of all global board game revenue
Embracer 1: is going to publish larger AA and AAA games
Embracer 2: is going to publish smaller AA games
yes
that 3rd company contains zero video game developers
it's all board games
and comics maybe? I think Dark Horse is involved here somehow too
ok you're right, they're included in Embracer 1
I assume it wont happen, but it would be weird if this workaround ended up killing board games
yep, kickstarter just became a pre-order platform
it's kind of weird
I feel like at this point, board games are basically just made-to-order via those campaigns, with no intention of any sort of direct sales or retail afterwards
maybe a re-run kickstarter with an expansion, but thats it
it's why prices are so crazy too
I at least appreciate TTS being a universal platform, even if the game mechanics are poorly implemented via scripts
it's the standalone digital board games I can't stand
$20 game, you'll need to buy unique copies for everyone you want to play with
and $25 of DLC for all the expansions
so it's ~$125, if you want to play with a full group of 5 players
TTS is more of a platform game than a game game
you buy it for the use of the platform of TTS
buying an individual board game for 20 dollars each is just not worth it
Its all free
It's doubly frustrating, because maybe, MAYBE an exceptional fully feature complete digital board game could be worth $10 on its own
but they never are
Replying to Polar_ #polar_ But, I can't check/remember, but they let modders sell their own games at their own set price point right? Or no its all just free on the Workshop
there is paid DLC, that some brands work with TTS to put out, it doesn't sell though and the files are just uploaded for free anyway
Okay spooky, 10 dollar board game, and they sell a DLC for a friend pass where if you buy it you can host games for people who do not own the game, otherwise they also have to own the game
ngl, I'd pay more, that's a good model Pika
Yeah, I was trying to think about the solution
where it compromises the real choice (1 person buys and its free for everyone else like jackbox)
I like Steam remote play, but it's kind of scuffed for non-hotseat // couch-coop mp
and what they want
oh, 100% agree
