yeah but they aren't going to be courting general #gamers in the future if they make a phoneix point 2. i mean they might try but they'll want the people who will go above and beyond, the fans of original xcom. the ones they sold out

if your game was going to fail accepting an epic deal just delayed, not reversed your demise. all the while you've failed to grow your playerbase and no one played your last game. epic stopped giving out handouts so now what. at least you had a chance to hit it big on steam
in my mind that's kind of the pattern. it's so short term focused it hurts
That's because you were watching it, not playing it. Youtube make Asura's Wrath so much better. It's the anti-God Hand.WBacon When is Asuras Wrath getting remastered
I just fell into a rabbithole of rewatching its keymoments on youtube and it hasn't lost anything of its charm!
If it scores above 80 I will start checking the skies for meteorites.If Greedfall scores above 65, I will buy it close to launch.
If it scores above 80, I will be shocked, amazed and very pleased.

I really would like to fast-foward 3 to 5 years and see how the EGS deal worked out for some of these indies.
Take Phoenix Point as an example. Making a game for a niche audience that kickstarted your game, and then you go and piss them off with the exclusivity deal. Sure, you earned a solid couple years of stability for your company, but will your niche audience support you moving forward? EGS just can't keep throwing money around forever, at some point they will have to stop. So what will they do when they find out the fortnite crowd isn't really interested in buying a niche TBS game, EGS stopped moneyhatting devs because it's not sustainable, and the people actually interested in your game either don't like you now or already moved on?.
Pretty short-sighted IMO, although I can understand how worried about failing an indie dev must be. The only thing we can do is wait and see how things turn out in the future. I think goodwill between the devs and the customers goes a long way. Warframe and Path of Exile are examples of games that stuck very close to their community and still do and enjoy a lot of success by pleasing said community. CDPR is probably one of the most loved companies for gamers at large because they take a pro-consumer approach whenever possible, and they're also extremely successful.
Very interesting to think about how this whole thing will end up a few years from now.
I don't know about that. Xenonauts 2 seems to be higher profile amongst enthusiasts of the genre than Phoenix Point is, at least at this point. Launching in the EGS won't help for visibility. But this is all speculation, like I said, we'll have to wait and see what happens. One thing I forgot to add is that fans of a niche genre are much more aware of creators/companies and its dealings than your regular AAA gamers. So people who are interested in the genre are probably already aware of what happened with Phoenix Point.I think you're pretty far off the mark.
Niche games tend to bring their audience along, whether it's between consoles or what. People buy platforms for these things. Weebs might whine about censored animu panties and light sparkles covering naughty bits, but they're still gonna buy a Playstation 5. There's nobody really servicing the turn based tactics genre with a half decent budget but Firaxis and now Phoenix Point. Their only competition is really XCOM 3 (yes, Xenonauts 2 exists, but it's not going to be a blip in the radar, and it's also not releasing on consoles or getting promotion from something like Microsoft) whenever that eventually hits.
Any pre-purchase or purchase of Borderlands 3 on the Epic Games store through midnight, December 31, 2020 ET will receive the Psycho Bundle in Fortnite. The bundle includes:
- Psycho Bandit Outfit
- Claptrap Pet
- Psycho Buzz Axes

Blasphemous (demo) rules.
Super super tight combat with great feedback, animations are impressive. Some interesting twists in the boss battle to make fights more punishing to the player (can't roll through the boss unless it's raising its leg, for instance). The ascending slash is a great solution to deal with flying/tall enemies in a 2D environment while keeping things simple and not super over the top (or creating new animations/attacks).
Not having the option to drop or slide down stairs sucks though, and having the pause menu be an option in the map is weird, but ok.
But does it have a dog you can pet?
who do i email to let them know i want itSadly no plans as far as I'm aware. For now, your best bet is Xbox One with it's backwards compatibility system.
