just imagine the "keep the playerbase" tactics in these titles .... aka which will results in devs thinkingwe need this many players or we cant pay google for the serversers ... and then silently dissapear
And if it was a "cloud-only" game like people are already looking forward to, what are you gonna do once they take it down?just imagine the "keep the playerbase" tactics in these titles .... aka which will results in devs thinkingwe need this many players or we cant pay google for the serversers ... and then silently dissapear
Like history has proven I don't think many devs out there cares about game preservation![]()
Guess who has that, Googlea lot of devs don't even care about people playing their games - as we can currently see with all this epic store bullshit
they just want money

You can probably still hack/cheat with pixel bots though right? That's how some of the most popular FPS aimbots work in games like Overwatch.well, i mean ... you can't really hack what's essentially a video ...

We shouldn't rely on them, because with the continued expansion of internet distribution, content is being pushed towards even more of a "CONSUME PEONS" mentality than ever before. Like say, oh there's a new Netflix series? Better binge it all tonight, because all the episodes are up now, and I gotta stay on top of the cultural zeitgeist!I always feel that we shouldn't rely on corporations for the purposes of game preservation. Not only their decision will always be influenced by their inherent needs to maximise profits, most of the decision makers didn't care enough about old games as art forms.
A community-funded and curated preservation would probably be more effective, but sadly with the copyright laws being what it is, it is difficult to build even one game preservation community effort without all the baggage which comes with it.

Wasn't Sweeney complaining about this sort of thing when PUBG Mobile did it?

What is the best way to conduct a giveaway? Was can I do on my side that is fair (and believeable)?
[REPLY]
tag ("hide until reacted") ... but then you'd have no way to track if someone actually took it (but it WOULD be hidden until someone "likes" the post, so it would at least be limited to people who use the forum because unregistered people can't "like" posts) ... or you can use steamgifts and just embed their widgets ... or you can do it manually like The Queen did for her giveaways TL;DR We're screwed.
Sad there is no Metal Gear Collection... Maybe someday, If I had to take a guess, maybe it's too much of a licensing nightmare?![]()
Sotn is likely saved for a later compilation. This firdt one will have stuff from the 8 and 16 bit era which are solid games in their own right.I hope the Castlevania collection includes that SOTN remaster... I also one day hope for the DS Castlevania's to get ported. My favorite is Dawn of Sorrow still...

Konami collections are epic exclusives?

I think we should just assume for now that Epic will snare anything and everything - and be pleasantly surprised if and when anything releases elsewhere.
That's what I'm trying to do instead of getting anxious on every interesting game that is announced. Still, this one is going to hurt more then usual.I think we should just assume for now that Epic will snare anything and everything - and be pleasantly surprised if and when anything releases elsewhere.
Wonder if Microsoft had any say on that?
Devs can't lose a sale afterall, if they have already been paid in sales.
