This game looks really cute and made a big splash when it first came out, but I’d be curious whether it has any staying power or if it grows stale with repetition.
I've only ever heard players saying they love the shit out of it and haven't seen anyone saying they ended up disliking it or growing bored. I'd like to know people's generally play hours, though, too
I’m at chapter 5 (of 7) and Steam is showing 15.6 hours (and 18/43 achievements if you are into achievements, which I am not.). I am still loving it.
I played a lot of it the last few days, so I am taking a little break to play something else. I need a few more restaurant days to make money to upgrade my suit to explore deeper to progress the main story quest. I blew all my cash training the best restaurant staff so that my kitchen is completely automated though.
You can grind postgame. I wouldn’t say there’s no progression… upgrading everything and everyone to the max would take a huge amount of money. I played for a few days after the end of the game but I was pretty much ready to move on from the game at that point. Absolutely loved it though… it’s worth picking up.
you can grind to upgrade your staff and business, there are reocurring events in which you can prepare special dishes to earn more money, maxing out characters takes a few postgame days
I will say that I am chapter 5 now (of 7), and the game is always throwing new things at you. New mechanics, new story beats, twists on gameplay, boss battles, etc. It has stayed very fresh for me. I wouldn’t say it is overwhelming either. It starts a bit slow where you think, “ok it’s just a fishing, sushi restaurant management sim”, but this is far from all that the game offers. I am loving it.
They said “wherever possible,” so I expect there to be no change with regards to Sony continuing to create exclusive contracts to keep Squared biggest games off of Xbox.
Unless it was part of a Call of Duty contract with Microsoft or something. Or the Sony deal was only for a few years, or it would cancel when FF16 failed to sell a certain number of copies.
Not terribly surprised they are shutting down, but I am a little shocked that it is happening less than a week after the game released. I kind of expected them to at least attempt the old "we're sorry you are disappointed and are working to fix the game" routine before bolting. Then again judging from all the articles and videos it doesn't really look like there was any way to fix it or even really bring it close to the game they promised they were going to release.
Holy shit I did not expect this! This is a game I’ve been intending to buy for switch for some time, but I’m just tired of buying 3rd party games from Nintendo. Steam Deck it is!
Edit: aaaand purchased. One of my favorites from the GameCube era.
Very much looking forward to this. Pissed I have to buy it for a third time. Bought original for PC many moons ago. Then the same version on steam. Then the remastered version on steam. And will again be buying the re re re mastered version on steam.
oh, great, so it’ll be even harder? fuck you, fire beads!
seriously, though, i’d buy it right now if i could. this game was one of my all-time favorites, and probably my favorite Myst game (i’ve played them all multiple times). But, holy shit, was it hard! possibly the most difficult of them all.
I didn’t understand it the first time I played it (I was quite young). But I loved the music, the environment, the aesthetics, the architecture.
If you like Myst, but found Firmament missed the mark (I feel like it was “follow the wire” and “look for hard to see thing” instead of myst puzzles of “information way before you need it”, or “puzzles way before you have information”), check out Quern: Undying Thought.
It nails the Myst experience, imo.
I actually loved this movie and hope this game brings that same quality especially humor and animation wise. Looking at Outright’s pedigree does not have me confident about it though …
Agreed, I took my kid to see it since he’d recently discovered TMNT. I went in without any expectations and ended up really enjoying it, can’t wait for a sequel!
