it should exist, tbh. and also not determined by devs
probably by some independent group
rancid token
That would require Steam to put actual effort into managing their platform
twin yarrow
which will never happen
sleek quiver
Well, I guess that’s where the problem is then. Not the entire problem, because it doesn’t solve anything here, but, it should help to curb down people’s expectations
coral ice
well, in the other hand you can always check on "how long to beat"
twin yarrow
you know, i think that time for available refund should be fixed. 2 hours is too much for small project like this, and too few to big games that are supposed to last 200+ hours to know everything important
rancid token
The issue isn't that people are disappointed and refunding it, it's that people are just blanket refunding it regardless because Cool, Free Game
sleek quiver
Steam could always just pull that info from that how long to beat website though
twin yarrow
meanwhile EGS, giving games for free forever
rancid token
Eggs didn't even have a refund policy when it started and that's worse tbh
sleek quiver
The issue isn't that people are disappointed and refunding it, it's that people ...
Yeah, this was the other issue I was thinking, that game probably got viral in some discord servers and everyone rushes in to try and then do the refund trick
rancid token
It's also frustrating the number of people who are like "but people like it, isn't art for the sake of art enough?"
Uh, no, bills exist
People gotta eat
sleek quiver
Yeah, Steam probably have to give a bit of a leeway to their refund policy just for these short games
twin yarrow
you know, even though i don't want to defend piracy, but even getting a cracked version to try first is not that insulting and derogatory as refunding a complete game
rancid token
I would agree with that Volus
sleek quiver
They don’t have to change it for everything, just a separate section for short games
rancid token
It's the difference between just not giving someone money, vs giving them money and then snatching it out of their hands
coral ice
i see there are lot of things to considerate:
-maybe you bought the game expecting something longer, and even if you finished it you felt like you overpay the game, then maybe its not that bad to refound it
-in the other hand if you liked it and u refound it because "free game" then yes, its terrible wrong
lofty pecan
Ye if you go into it knowing its a short experience and refund it, its wrong
coral ice
and yes, different "refound time windows" could help, but i dont see steam working so hard to do it, because looks like a simple idea hard to implement
lofty pecan
But its basically impossible to know that, since this is a small game and prolly doesnt have that many reviews online
sleek quiver
I just took a look at the game on YouTube. Feels like PT
coral ice
But its basically impossible to know that, since this is a small game and prolly...
well, in that cases the devs should put an "estimated time to complete" in the description
sleek quiver
I guess that justifies the $10 price
coral ice
10 dollars O.O yes, looks overpriced, here in argentina is cheaper
sleek quiver
But its basically impossible to know that, since this is a small game and prolly...
It’s available on howlongtobeat, and there’s playthrough videos on YouTube dating since a month ago
Dev also seems to have a small following from his previous projects
It looks good, ngl
Seems reasonable to charge $10
polar dragon
sadge, t1 will still be at worlds though.
coral ice
well, maybe, looks overpriced to me, because here in Argentina 10 dollars its a lot of money 😦
send help hehe
polar dragon
don't you have local currency option?
coral ice
yes, here its like 1 dollar that game
but i refered that 10 maybe looks like a really high price because we earn monthly like 280 dollars
twin yarrow
same here
luckily localised prices exist, otherwise gaming would be a very expensive hobby
coral ice
where are you from?
twin yarrow

although it applies only to Steam and MS store, for PSN prices are still high as everywhere else

this is actually something that's being discussed on twitter just recently as well in regards to fan content. the gist of it is that jp fandoms have an unspoken agreement with ip holders to not draw attention to themselves, or else ip holders will be forced to take action and take things down. they are well aware fan passion is what drives content and keeps it alive, but essentially the moment they're aware of x thing then they're obligated to deal with it.
the whole convo was started by... some sort of fan translation project? idk if it was for an anime or game or what, but from what i understand a translator quit doing translations and then reached out to the company to ask if translations were allowed, and of course they were told no. so it sparked a whole discussion about "do not ask about these things, do not draw attention to it, of course the answer is 'no that is not allowed' but so long as the companies can claim they aren't aware of it then nothing will happen"

i enjoy koei musou a lot but i do acknowledge they are dreadfully repetitive, which is also like... part of their appeal too? like it's something i can pop on and turn my brain off and just go rack up thousands of kills on a map, it's soothing. but it is a series that gets scathing criticism for that aspect, on top of ridiculous monetization, and the fact the series itself is so stagnant. it's hurt me a lot to see what they did with samurai warriors 5 :/ not even the smaller roster but like... not much has changed overall, and they're literally reselling the exact same dlc they sold in sw4/4-ii, which are like.. 5-6 yr old games. just. it's disheartening lmao bc omega force is capable of more when it's not their ip, stuff like hyrule warriors shows that
kinda makes me dread the upcoming tourabu musou cause i can't help but think, gee how much is it going to improve on every aspect of mainline musou, and never let mainline musou ever see changes and updates like these

pokemon is also a vastly larger fanbase, so you are going to see more of that. musou games in general are more niche than pokemon

On the main artist's Twitter, you may find these characters and the creator's thoughts about them.
The trivias could explain the reasoning behind the character's skills, an example is the one that I found about my favorite assigned main character, Boron.
Where creator said that they were close with their mother.
That would explain why they can have that late game skill that is mostly given to support or "mage type" characters.
leaden heart
the game is Fuga: Melodies of Steel.
also, the game has comedic "side stories" on YouTube, featuring the main crew of the game (including spoiler characters). I believe that you can find it if you search up "Fuga: Comedies of Steel".
mhrm the better term could be comedic shorts, something like 4komas.

I've never really been sure what tangible benefits Linux brings over windows for people not running server rooms or something

dire condor

in term of pure usability, Linux has better package (apps) management, installing new programs are more easier on most distributions, more customization if you are into that stuff, and it's free (yes windows can be "free" but not officially "free"), fewer virus concerns (not to say there is none).
what you give up is a learning curve (which is getting flatter as time goes on) and general software compatibility

i have no point of reference for either of those games bc ive never played them lmao disgaea isn't really tactics so much as it is make the most obscenely powerful characters
if you want a tactical game disgaea is definitely not the series to go for that
sonic berry
Ah I see. I was curious since I've seen the name for a while now and I still don't know what the games are about 
stable kindle
its a game about making big numbers, which requires a lot of grind to get there. its not everyones cup of tea but its pretty fun if you enjoy it. lv cap is 9999 and theres all kinds of systems in place to min max characters and gear, if you so choose. my attention span cant take that so i dont worry about that lmao
mystic wave
i only played disgaea 2. you could grind to ridiculous levels and the enemies do get that high too, but the main story boss was around 100 or something
stable kindle
yeah usually the story content ends around lv90-100 but the draw of the series has always been going way beyond that and dealing damage in the millions and billions
and theres always some ridiculously powerful optional boss. or bosses

just found out that long gone days has a final chapter that's gonna be released. wondering if anyone here has any experience playing it
rustic falcon
To be fair. It's not my fault most games put soul-crushing achievements 🥲
yeah for sure. sometimes i look at a game and im like "ill never have this 100% 🥲 " and just... maybe save them for later lol. but looking at my perfect games most of them were easy (even the ones that required a replay of the game or a bit of time). the hardest game i 100%ed in my opinion is thumper

i'd 100% mhgu but that goes into the realm of insanity
- complete 1.5k quests, some are stupidly hard and some stupidly boring
- fight about 100 monsters many times until you have the really rare sizes of all of them logged
- s-rank every arena quest. even the ones that force you to use weapons you hate

To be fair. It's not my fault most games put soul-crushing achievements 🥲
Code vein has this achievement where you need to collect a certain coin that is only available when you co-op. You need 400 of them to complete it. My friend wanted this badly... so bad... he bought me code vein. To honour his desire, I played with him. Thing was, he didn't want to do harder missions to collect it faster, he wanted to do an easy one over and over and over.
that easy mission
only grants 5 coins
granted it's over in 5 mins
but that's one coin per min
it came to the point where I just pop in, he did the heavy lifting and I just vibed in the "bonfire"
we did it tho

that reminds me of how i only have one achievement left in prey: typhon hunter which is prey's prop hunt clone... you have to survive 50 matches as a mimic and every match takes like 5 minutes iirc. but the game is pretty much dead and not that good to begin with so i guess ill never have it 😔

junior crown
In my experience all multiplayer games are something like this.
I find out about the game, I enjoy it. Play for some time. And then the crossroads opens.
- I play it and it eventually doesn't have enough players to play it or servers shutdown, but I didn't play it for long enough so I wish I could play it more.
- I play the game, but get bored of it for some reason and just never can pick up.
- I play too much of it to experience all of it bad sides be it community wise or game wise, come to conclusion, let it all pile up and end up despising the game with so many hours in it.
It's interesting to me that the 2nd option is very rare occurrence to me and the two are others happen way too often with them.
stable kindle
oh yeah number 3 was definitely mine, official servers were never maintained so of course it fell to player run servers to pick up the slack, and of course when you have player run servers the vast majority of them are absolute garbage. we managed a server that stayed pretty busy through much of the day and eventually i did just get to a point where the act of logging on at all felt like a chore. even if we banned the troublemakers from our server, they would be on other servers if i went hopping around during downtime and it was always such an Ordeal lmao

oh, i've just realised that natural hp recovery doesn't scale with total health in rtdx

The more complex the game the most likely something undiscovered is yet to appear
This is specially prevalent in 3d games where perfect runs are basically impossible
given that 2d you only go right/up as fast as possible but when going to point a to b implies more than one direction the optimal route is always ahead of your time
One of my favourite example of massive improvement is Celeste:
In SGDQ they had a TAS of the game that lasted 28 minutes and 54 seconds, being perfect play with absolutely no mistakes.
Well, the World record since February stands at 26 Minutes and 29 seconds by an human being with tons of new strats but without machine-only ones and the typical human 'Suboptimaliness'.
God, Celeste is such a joy to spectate the speedruns.

you would think that a country that's proud to be an effective democracy would only have laws that are popular, and not have laws so unpopular that people are forced to step down when they say they agree with the law

Lightbringer and Deathfire Grasp are pretty good imo

Jørn Lande on vocals, so
polar dragon
especially if you know a bit of the game and get some of the references
also most of the song names are gameplay items
i miss deathfire grasp T.T
polar dragon
Last Whisper is also a banger

I think cosplay is getting easier today because of 3D printers and online orders
Aren’t there people that specialize in making cosplay equipments and outfits?

Ok, I’m a huge fan of rougelikes and I’ve already played Isaac, Gungeon, and hades. Should I try neon abyss?
vagrant epoch
I enjoyed it quite a bit

Dead Cells is a good choice as well
It’s not isometric or top-down, but the pace is pretty much the same with Hades

My reccomendation of Roguelites (roughly) in order
Dungeon of the endless, Star Renegades, Loop Hero, One Step from Eden (Warning: Ultra Hard), Dead Cells, Dreamscaper, Vambrace Cold Soul, Darkest Dungeon, Othercide, Crying Suns (Was Free on Epic),
polar dragon
XCOM baby
sleek quiver
Can vouch for Crying Suns, it is good
