games

but they seem to have a lot of 2025/2026 projects

at least this DFO spinoff will live longer than DNF Duel

wow

Hunt 2

interesting

Crytek becoming a Hunt studio is weird

Polu didn't leak this one early

but McDonalds is doing a squidgame contest thing

more info

40 usd price

color coded loot

map is completely stati

c

its always the same limgrave map, only loot and boss spawns are somewhat randomized when you start a run you pick a boss to "hunt" then you kill doing some basic route and then prapre for th eboss

since the map is static you probably figure it out really quick

China won

Im not surprised, gacha vote too split this year

80% of the game ads this year

have been gachas

I think if you sub to all the Google shit now

it'll be more than $1200/year

YouTube TV, YouTube Premium, GooglePlay+

they need something amazon prime tier

where youd want to subscribe anyways

then they can just combine them all

their TV thing is actually not bad, and back when it was 40-50/month it was maybe worth for some people

but not now

Max, does Google nag you extra hard now, to pay for Google1

or w/e they're calling their cloud storage plan

@RIBA CONGRATS

You are a VA for a game

thats so cool

yeah thanks

making the big bucks

I finally blacklisted bestbuy to go to trash automatically since they send like 3 emails a day

>>>astrobot

better than eldenring at least

did not deserve to win game of the year

Thank God it wasn't Elden Ring

I was worried they'd give it to them

since they won nothing

Hell yeah, the baby game won goty, gaming is saved

would unironically be kino

baeltus

W

I got that too

Installed

wukong added boss rush mode

:D

since this happened just now i wonder if they were saving until after TGA and could of released it if it magically goty (but i suspect they knew they wouldnt)

They mentioned it at TGA

so I imagine they waited

https://weibo.com/6603744955/5111567333196223 The CEO of Game Science, the studio that made Black Myth Wukong, wrote his GOTY speech 2 years ago

It had to be approved by the ccp first

I guess best Game Direction wasn't 2nd place this year since Astro Bot got it as well

I completed A Short Hike, that's now an Archipelago option

the game is fine

im only probably 45%~ through it but; really really good srpg by the gfl devs, remake of their first doujin game it was suppoused to come out like 3 years ago but it only came out this year and i forgot about it. its also funny because you can see all the GFL2 mechanics they ripped from this, including 1:1 debuffs buffs and stats for some stuff its definitely not for most people though the stealth missions are like puzzles with 1-3~ solutions and I think most people will probably hate that quite a bit its also really unique in that not like xcom/fe with permadeath but more just a story game with mission clears, but its mecahnics are pretty unique and I can't think of another SRPG that does it like this. instead of army v army, its your 2-4 units vs 15-150+ units with reinforcements every few rounds, and your units arent any stronger, often theyre weaker, so you setup tripwires, throw teargas, hide turrets, duck in and out of stealth in the trees to pick off hundreds of enemies. the first srpg I've played to nail guerilla warefare perfectly.

of course

spooky has like half the the entire steam store on his wishlist

Reverse Collapse looked good, mostly because there's not been many FireEmblem games outside of really rough indies made in SRPG maker

I'm sketchy on whether I'd like the small group vs huge army

its definitely a lot less fire emblem/xcom than i was expecting

i actually do not know how to describe it its very unique
