That Rob guy says even better stuff whoever he is. And people will just try to sweep that under the rug, talk about how Assault Android Cactus will probably get on and it was a mistake, as if that game in particular getting on EGS solves the issue discussed. Well, if they discuss it at all and don't just ignore these again.

my bet is on Sergey letting AAC+ in today, saying "it was a mistake on our part" and hoping it'll all blow over
Generation Zero |
An update from our Dev Team on Generation Zero as of now, and what's coming next.
generationzero.com
Been playing for ~11 hours and there's way too much wrong to list, my major gripe being that the world is well built but too damn big and traversing without vehicles takes too friggin' long. And if you only have a few robots as enemies their AI should be great. The way things are you're running around a lot without anything happening and when a big fight starts it's often pure chaos with too much going on too fast for tactical decisions. Then there are the bugs, so many. Like you can 'open' a door lying on the ground which then swings into the ground or air. Ok, funny. Enemies clipping through walls, just standing still or weird shit happening with quests aren't. Let's talk about copy & pasted houses. You thought PUBG's first map was bad? Ahahaha. Coop has serious issues too. How progression works, but teamplay too. I honestly could go on and on, Generation Zero is just not a good game and will be hard to fix. Visuals are fairly decent though with some nice scenery, great weather effects and lighting.
Like the look.

They are supposedly to receive the remasters for free
That's nice of them.
So, will the old versions be removed, making people buy the more expensive remaster... and then review bombs?
One benefit if all stores had a no selling crappy games policy would be that Fortnite never would have been able to release anywhere with that kind of a policy.
Interestingly I was going to link to a review of Fortnite at its initial launch for this post but on the process of looking found that PC Gamer seems to have completely removed their review that gave the game a 55 from their site.

Interesting, what made them to remove the old review and put a new one?
The reviews are by the same author.
The Internet never forgets. Here is the original review
Fortnite review
OP
Feeling dirty defending anything those morons do but that review was from before Battle Royale. They could ofc do an update but it was outdated and useless very quickly.
Well to be fair that review seems to have been before they copied the battle royale concept. So they can always reflect that it has improved since and is worth the new score (and ignore the implications of the game not being sold at all just because it's too crappy so it'd never get updated to have the new stuff, ha).
Battle Royale is a separate free to play game while they're still selling Save the World for $40. There's no reason to remove the review for Save the World.
OP
Oh, so the reviews were for two different games. That explains a lot. They shouldn't have deleted the first review to make a new review for the battle royale version.
There is a reason to remove the review, it makes papa Epic look bad.
SEGA Fes is tomorrow. Curious to see what mobile games they announce :V
EDIT: BTW did I mention I wouldn't buy future Devolver games.....? No seriously I'm asking if I ever mentioned that cuz I can't remember
I'm getting Metal Wolf at least.

holy shit ... this is just AMAZING
Good games can be rejected. Tim did not say that EGS would accept every good game. He only said that they would not accept crappy games.
It can happen everywhere except on Steam and Itch. If you look at GOG, Opus Magnum and other games have been rejected.
My guess is that Tim wants to have a few good games in every popular genre, and "Bullet Hell" is one of the least popular genres, based on my experience of hidden gems. I recently went through the Steam250 list of hidden gems for a post on ResetEra, and I noticed that trend. Other high-quality games which are often overlooked are Point-n-Click. EGS has Thimbleweed Park though.

I'll expect nothing, and still be disappointed.
It's perplexing how SEGA sucks so much at "exploiting" its older IPs.
If I ran SEGA, I would have a couple of smaller teams working on new entries from older Arcade/Console series like Shinobi, Altered Beast, ESWAT, and more, for PC and consoles.
And, what's the deal with Phantasy Star Online? I mean, why don't they ever make these games available in the West? The series had a decent following around the time of the Dreamcast and Gamecube entries. The games are done, why not make them available on as many markets and platforms as possible?
OP
So, who wants Risk of Rain 2 the most? I tried looking through the wishlists of people on my steam friends and no one had it as nr1!
That term loses its meaning nowadays. All it purveys is that you ARE expecting something.I'll expect nothing, and still be disappointed.

Last year Shenmue I & II HD were announced at SEGA Fes, and SEGA Europe is teasing something this year too.I'll expect nothing, and still be disappointed.

I have no idea what they'll announce, but I wouldn't be surprised with another HD version of an old game for PC and consoles.
Gimme dem Sonic games so we can finally mod them to something sensible to play
Gimme dem PS2, Dreamcast and Saturn games already.
I'll be honest, when I first saw AAC years ago, I thought it kind of looked trashy graphically and found it almost generic.It's great when developers offer such insight into the process of being in a store. On the other hand, how can you reject a game like Assault Android Cactus from your store? I mean it's one of the best in dual stick genre.
I was wrong, and the game is great and I recommend it all the time now. Which is another reason people can't be trusted to curate. Your first impression as a curator may be worthless garbage (like mine).
I want it, although I haven't even wishlisted it yet

Wishlisted and placed it number 1

Yeah, but Shenmue I & II is a slightly improved port.
What I meant was working on new entries (not just ports, or re-releases) for the digital marketplaces. I obviously don't mean big titles like Shenmue, but shorter arcade experiences, like 2D or 2,5D sequels to shmups, beat'em ups, platformers, (...). Things like a new Shinobi, a new ESWAT, a new Altered Beat, a new Golden Axe, a new Dynamite Duck.
A couple of small teams, sharing an engine and assets, and putting out new titles periodically, that's my "vision".
It seems like a missed opportunity that these platforms have a lot of arcade titles and re-releases of older titles (when the Xbox Live Arcade hit its pick, sales were huge for these digital titles), while a company like SEGA, who has so many well liked IPs, just sits on them.
Capcom actually did a decent job with this a few years ago. They released a couple of new Bionic Commando games (I don't mean their bigger budget game, I mean the smaller downloadable games, the Rearmed titles), a new 1942 game (1942: Joint Strike), a new Commando game (Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3), and a new Strider game.
Speaking of which, I wish Bionic Commando Rearmed 2, 1942: Joint Strike, and Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 would be released on Steam (hint Wbacon
).I had them on my Xbox 360, but my console broke down, so unfortunately I can't replay them.
Binary Domain HD to finally set the stage for Binary Domain 2's release.

Haha! Alright, I'll send it to you once you accept my friend request.I want it, although I haven't even wishlisted it yet

That would be so good in general. Ubisoft also had those smaller projects like Child of Light and Valiant Hearts. Is not that they are all good, but the diversity is much appreciated. All the big publisher could have similar strategies. The cost is minimal, keeps your talent happy by offering the opportunity to explore different things and who knows, maybe you will find the next "big" thing by accident. You don't have to stop going after the open-world-with-rpg-elements and/or battle royale, but also allowing these smaller projects seems to be a good thing to keep the industry as a whole healthy.
I'll probably be exclusive to MC till April 26 because of the Snap:
Only half of those who post in this thread will be unbanned... (Avengers Endgame game, sign-ups open until April 1st)
TBH, I'll probably stop posting on Era for a bit even if I don't get snapped.

One of SEGA's series producers said last year that he'd like to do it if SEGA approved it.
I'm just saying, it's not a total pipe dream!
OP
That is bizarre as hell.
How many fortnite players would want to buy and play a building game like this.

Eat my butt Ubi.
None, which is why it makes no sense that they still are doing nothing to actually incentivize Fortnite players to try these games.

News - Anno 1800 moving to EGS after release (exclusive)
https://www.anno-union.com/en/ubisoft-is-partnering-with-epic-games-store-for-anno-1800/ Ubisoft is partnering with Epic Games store for Anno 1800 Following the successful launch of Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on PC on the Ubisoft Store and the Epic Games store, we are...
metacouncil.com
pretty sure we won't be seeing ANY new ubi games on steam anymore (contrary to what they claimed after Division announcement) ...
Wow. This is what having your cake and eating it too looks like. All the Steam preorders, the game on UPlay and an Epic moneyhat. You can't blame Ubisoft too much. They're basically getting paid by Epic to make a shift to their own UPlay like it was obvious was a desire of theirs so they no longer had to pay Steam (and they kept driving UPlay acceptance by incorporating it in all their games anyway). Steam is in a weird position too, they can't really ban such things with arbitrary standards that they will keep trying to evade anyway. They will honor preorders on Steam so that's giving them a free pass to get all the Steam marketing they can on top of all this. Ubisoft's being pretty damn clever with how they take advantage of this whole situation. And nobody is even batting an eye at such preferential treatment either, an exclusivity deal without exclusivity and likely most sales coming from UPlay/retail. A Steam embargo deal. COMPETITION!
