And who doesn't have a problem, making some screenshots from a movie or series*? The people who just obtained them as .mp4s or .mkvs or... Also those files don't just simply get removed*. It's the paying customer who is made the idiot again.

*yet, pending further "technical advancements"...

What a curious coincidence! I've seen the prices for Doom - The Dark Ages* and an RTX 5090 and I'm also still in shock.

(*80 € for a base game now, they can fuck off with that)

Bobby Kot(d)ick accusing someone else to be "the worst CEO" is like one slime ball pissing goo at another slime ball in a pissing contest to see who can piss the most disgusting liquid. His interpretation of "worst CEO" is probably "didn't milk the players enough" and "could have pressed more money out of them".

Also they (Warhorse) certainly deserve praise for the fact that they gave a free Steam key to KCD1 backers (though I don't know if every backer got one or just from a certain level on). Completely on their own as a "thank you" because "we were able to bring Kingdom Come: Deliverance to life—the game of our dreams" (OT).

Just raising a bit of awareness for an actual nice thing

You all don't need to worry, your new old president Tremendous Rump will release his healthcare plan in 2 weeks just 7 years ago from now; he said it many many times so it must be true and it will be the most bestest ever!

I'm very confused, as the most important info from that blog post is missing in Blue's news:

The DLC is obviously selling abysmally bad on PC. Starfield is currently #87 in 'most played' on Steam. It was not even in the top 100 earlier today (EU early afternoon time). The player numbers are abysmal for a game that just received its first DLC.
Ah, that's certainly not how the Todd sees it:

Before the DLC was released the game had around 10k daily players on Steam. Now it's almost 20k! So the active daily players have doubled with the DLC (doubled I say!).

Also, SF has now almost as many players as Skyrim. But because a lot more Steam users own Skyrim than SF the percentage of players in relation to owners is much higher than Skyrim. Therefore more successful than Skyrim! And in a much shorter time frame!

Joking aside, $30 / 30 € / ₤26 for this DLC is downright insolent. Just needed to say that

Oh my, I can't wait - this will be glorious. Not the game of course, I don't give a rats ass about CoD anymore and especially not with *this*, but the drama in the making; it's like announcing that you are now going to drive against the wall.

Not sure how well F13th is doing, nor TCM, but DbD is going strong because they were smart with the concept. KKFOS needs to have enough memorable mechanics for it to stick around, as well as upcoming ideas for new things. We'll just have to see how it does, I guess.

I can tell you how F13 is doing, let me quote the Steam page:
As of December 31st, 2023, this title will no longer be available for purchase. The game will continue to function through at least December 31, 2024 if it is already in your Library.
It's not just dead, it is DEAD dead. Not that there was lot of development after the initial release anyway. The game was fairly fun at the beginning, but quite buggy and half broken. And soon git swamped with the exploiters and cheaters, which the devs did fuck all to fix.

The F13 devs were btw. IllFonic - same as this game. Maybe they are "better" now than back then, but I have my doubts and - based on my experience with F13 - can only advise to stay the hell away from this game (or any other "product" they squirt out). Cheap cash grabs based on a well known and liked franchise. (Maybe more or less in this case, but it works well, as the movie has its weird charm). F them. (a little vent here )

DbD is from another dev who at least seem to care (if also putting out one "addon" after the other), so no wonder it's doing well. At least they don't abandon it immediately.

For the love of <whatever deity you worship> Blue, stop posting links to this clickbait shite; that is no "easter egg", it is absolute nothing new and the only reason some single "player" is amazed (again) is because he is obviously "not the sharpest tool in the shed". (you need to open and walk through a closed door to see that; and yes, that is all, that is the so called "easter egg")

This website is seriously clickbait crap - as it was every the last time you linked it.

Yeah, same crap as with the other "article" from that very same website a couple days ago; either these are the most oblivious players ever or... it's just deliberate clickbait crap; and as it's the same for most of the stuff from that author at a quick glance, this site lands on the ignore list for me

Avalanche studios you say? The same one that worked on Just Cause and Mad Max? If so, they're no slouch of a developer. Mad Max was one of my favorite sleeper open world games I ever played. I had zero expectations with it going in and had a blast. Just Cause 1-3 were all really good with 3 being my favorite. I think we could forget about 4.

That said, they've got experience.
No, this game was made by Avalanche Software, some American studio that made mostly Disney stuff, not Avalanche Studios, the Swedish guys. And yes, I only know that because I was also confused by the names when the game came out

And @topic - I also never "got" the Harry Potter craze, but I was also not a kid anymore when that happened. So my interest in the game is mid as most; hope it'll end up in a "Humble monthly" at some point, as I'd give it a try but have no real interest and therefore no incentive to "really" buy it...

I did for some reason and - to no ones surprise - that "article" is complete rubbish; they are talking about the Illithid powers that some guy never used. Of course this person was in no way the first or only one but also it's certainly no more a "core mechanic" as every other spell that you may or may not learn/use.

I found the treatment of the winners truly revolting; basically "here, take this thing and now eff off". Everyone else had more time to say some stuff than the people that are the reason to call this sh...ow "The Game Awards".

But as long as Keighley can do some more public ass-kissing to Kojima it's all good, I guess. Golfclap

I linked official sources. It does not get more official than Swen Vincke.
Wow you are ridiculous; the whole video is an hour of mainly Swen and David plus a couple of other Larian's telling the story; It is what you want but since you are just incapable of starting a video.

If you are - and now I'm not avoiding this any more - simply too stupid to listen to the people you constantly demand to listen to; but then refuse to listen to them because "because I'm not gonna watch all that crap that doesn't even contain what you claim" (because you know what it contains as you did not watch it? sure...), then yes, it's "case closed". And I already told you when the relevant bits started. But don't bother, I have no energy to argue with stupid. Feels already like a Trump rally...

Please. Of course, it's a marketing video even if it is not labeled as such. Any video a company puts on their public YouTube video channel (freely accessible by billions of people) is marketing. In fact, that very video was a KS reward (starting at the $50 level and above) and if you believe it was not edited to a) make the company look as good as possible and b) make the backers feel good about themselves, maybe even by exaggerating their role as the "saviors of the company" or something like that, then I have some bridges to sell you on Mars.

I have no clue what video you are talking about, but clearly not the one I had linked, as this is made by someone else, not Larian (a documentation channel) and from a different crowdfunding project - and this is not even Larians channel, as you claim... so yeah, no idea (now I tried to download the video from the KS to verify it but it's not in the Larian Vault anymore; Map, OST, Artbook, Design docs... but not the video O.o, but it's certainly not the same as it is in no way what the description* says; so yeah if you can't even click on a damn link but just assume things...

ok it becomes... something; watch the video, listen to what THEY say...

and calling it "an official marketing video" is a) laughable and b) you didn't even start the damn thing, as it is certainly nowhere close to something-marketing

And you contradict yourself: "You have to juggle your finances, talk to your creditors and when the funds are depleted, you MUST release. The KS helped them extend development but it did not save their bacon as a company."

What, pray tell, would have happened if they released the game in that unfinished state? Made with the last money they had. And then it'd have (probably) failed because no one likes overly broken games, which means it'd probably would not have generated money (at least not enough to pay the loans back and keep on doing things). "either make it or break it" as you call it yourself. I'd call that the end of the company (the "break" part). But again, I just rely on the things they said, in their own words. And that's all.

Except this is not even true at all. The game was almost done when they went to Kickstarter. They were not on the brink of bankruptcy. They went to Kickstarter because it was the hip thing to do for marketing reasons and to expand their budget a bit more for the final stretch of development.
Straight from the Original Sin Kickstarter page:...
Except it is - and was always true for the time before they had the success with OS. The game was finished in the way of "somewhat able to be released, but not finished and buggy..."-again (like all their games before). Kickstarter was just the right solution at the right time because they were very burned by several Publishers before and didn't want anything have to do with them anymore.
You're quoting an official PR text. What else should they have written there "need money because we're running out of it"? That certainly instills trust in finishing a project. You don't spill the state of your company to everyone just like that. Or do you?

But - since I am just not capable of making things up and like more facts as told by the people self - here the Larian story, enjoy (and learn): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZF_cP_oLH4 (Orignal Sin bit starts around 47 mins if you want to skip, but it's all very interesting and important for the context, as it explains it all)

Interesting double standards and hypocrisy once again. Usually posts that use the "r" word get removed around here but when someone is fanboying for Larian then it is apparently OK .
Which is par for the course. Larian gets away with everything that other developers get lambasted for.

Honestly I'm not a fanboy of anything, but yes, I am indeed unashamed to say that Larian comes close to it, well me being it that is. Because I have followed them since the OS Kickstarter (easy, as they had sent the updates to "us"), and I am certain that they are a) as honest as it can get and that they have "their hearts at the right place". Sometimes they have of course business decisions that might be unpopular and not "cool" for me as a player, but they do not deceive or lie to you; quite the opposite, they are more open than any other (big/bigger) company out there. Bethesda just gave a fine example. But well just watch the video, it's 1 hour "behind the scenes" in all it's European honesty... (after credits is funny, after the sad part).

And one anecdote from the OS1 KS: they actually apologized for the somewhat lackluster (physical) Collectors Edition because they couldn't just financially make it as cool as they wanted to; I had several KS-CEs and no one ever did something like that. The "Underworld Ascendant" so-called-CE was actually an absolute insolence and those f-ers never said a single word about that (even worse than the game itself).
And with OS2 they then went over the top and delivered much more than they promised (still talking about the CE ;)). All that built a lot of trust and good will, no question about that.

Never say never. They have totally reworked the story of Divinity Original Sin for the Enhanced Edition of that game and D:OS was a lot less commercially successful (though it's certainly not like BG3 needs a "total rework"). Also, Larian have already promised to deliver more content in the shape of more fleshed out endings (epilogues).

Except that the reason for the D:OS Enhanced Editions were the much different situations - at the time for OS1 Larian was at the brink of going bankrupt and the Kickstarter money (944k) was the saving point; with that money they had to finish and release it, not much room for extras (like voice overs) and additional changes, that they apparently had in hindsight in mind (and sales were good enough to finance them); and similar with OS2, although on a somewhat bigger scale (bigger game, but also more crowdfunding money and income from OS1), but still a very, very tight budget (2m, so just twice as much as OS1).

All this crap of "lied because cut content" is seriously retarded; all games have "content cut", for some reason or the other; but it gives those idiots in the Steam forums a new reason for BS-outrage; "cut content" has just replaced "woke" as a reason to get artificially mad about something. And not asking for reasons - in this case it might simply not have worked on a technical level, as Act3 seems to be very heavy on the system anyway.
Interesting in that regard: Tim Cain talking about South Park: Stick of Truth, incl. "cut content"... (just because of his timing, video released yesterday)

They will certainly keep working on the game, improving and even add things for a long time (remember the free mini DLC stuff for OS2 for 12 months? nothing crazy of course, but still free stuff/support). And who knows maybe they even do a DLC despite Swens refusal, with the game's success and demand for "more" it would be almost stupid not to do something (although that gives a new reason for more BS-outrage, like "But Larian has said...blablabla".)

So of course, if someone wants the "...most bestest..." version they should wait until they declare the "last update". But that is nothing new and in no way exclusive to Larian; it has rather become the norm to game development. I wanted to wait til that point as I nowadays use to do - but ...as an exception to my rule... just couldn't. O well, that gives then a reason for another playthrough

On an related-unrelated note - anyone else asking himself how many DLCs Bethesda has already planned for SF? Will it be the average 4 or this time more?
