games

original dev is not really involved, he's still off living the trad wife life

no idea how Ice Pick Lodge was able to work on this, they've got such a small team, if it really is them (and it looks like it) I have no idea how they managed

guy who knows a guy who knows a guy

I guess

If they have full creative control over this

then it will be entertaining

even more schizo team

I'm 100% sure they do

though they fired their peak schitzo recently

he got internet canceled

wait what

who got fired?

studio head and creative director guy, for kidnapping children

yeah, Ice Pick Lodge is still <10 people

I have no idea how this was in-dev alongside Pathologic 3

with 2 different publishers

Yeah idk either

Pathologic 3 comes out in 3 months

Pathologic 3 might be a buggy piece of shit even more than I thought it would be

if they were working with both things

I feel like it's more likely that Darkwood 2 was a HoodedHorse project they were fully outsourcing, and brought it to Ice Pick Lodge to finish and inject their brand of schizophrenia into

total Spooky guess

but there really were zero signs that Ice Pick was working on this

erm

i guess theyre riding the trend of

darkwood suddenly being popular

was there a resurgence?

did some youtuber make a video 😭

there was one the past like 3 years id say

the residuals must have been peak

I guess

oh CK3 has east asia now

Finally

cool another collab

continuing the yogscast "revival"

Crazy how they've made 6 of these games already and only 1.5 of them were good

Thats insane

First game is a masterpiece of gbc games. Pirates curse is amazing. I really likes half-genie hero (Although its a different type of game). The DSI game was just alright. Seven Sirens was my least favourite but I still enjoyed it

listing free patrons makes these stats really skewed

a title change and episode number reset happened

Why didn't phijkchu games think of this promotion tactic for thier game, are they stupid

(random shitter indie on my twitter for you)

say you need to fund your hrt

"This game is in dedication to our best friend, Gent, whom sadly passed away. It would mean a lot to him if you could buy and play our game in loving memory of Gent."

"Being made into a game by us was what Gent always wanted. This is about him"

Literally untrue statement

Good idea Tiny Gent can take one for the team

exactly!

Max almost did that for the next game

Would have been good promotional material

100%, we're getting a Pillars 3 announcement

there's no reason they'd go back and add this to the first game in a sane universe otherwise

or @taxes Avowed 2

totally

?????????????????

what the fuck

pillars 3 witha big budget

please

imagine they actually iinvest in obsidian for a game

pillars is the type of game theyre actually good at not open world games

please for the love of god

I assume it'll be a "BG3-killer"

please

turn-based

did Avowed have any real post-launch content Max?

no

it got NG+ i think

yeah, I couldn't rmemeber if it had a season pass or not

no dlc

so yeah, if they had their core team start after BG3 blew up

im pretty sure that

and then got more devs after avowed spun down

after the bg3 blow up

microsoft has to be a BIT interested

in investing in that
