Aside from all of the problems with the game itself, I think they must've had one of the most unfortunate launch moments. Hero shooters had been pretty much on the downturn and then just before they launched, Deadlock went public and suckered quite a lot of the hero shooter audience into playing a full-on MOBA/FPS hybrid. And Deadlock is very quietly breaking all kinds of silly records for what's technically an invite-only alpha (currently #8 on Steam's most played with 137k concurrent players).

Anyone who paid any more for this game should get their money back immediately.

kaitco,

They are. The makers announced refunds along with the cancellation.

itsnt it some generic looking shooter stuffed with micro-transactions? I really cant fathom why people even care when yet another live service “AAA” “game” gets shat out.

Is this the fastest video game death of all time?

It’s a live service game. Any other game they’d say “Well most of the work is done already” but in this case it requires regular ongoing investment.

So funny when a corpo is forced to seem positive about something where there is absolutely no positive way of spinning it. It has this surreal energy where the person doing PR seems almost uncanny, like some kind of lizard person.

Funny answer: Nightmare Kart. It’s Bloodborne Mario Kart with Sega Saturn graphics. Delightfully postmodern, spooky, and free.

If you need a break from genuinely scary and just want thematically spooky fun, it’s Crypt of the Necrodancer and Darkest Dungeon.

If you have a reasonably strong machine, try emulating Call of Cthulhu, Dark Corners of the Earth. It’s genuinely scary a lot of the time.

Naissance. Also Control.

Bbbbbbbbbbb, do games w What's your favorite controller?

Generally speaking, any xbox one or later generation controller. Theyre all relatively the same.

Real shit though, Xbox The Duke is my favorite

i miss the black and white buttons from the mini xbox controller days. still feel like 4 buttons is not enough on the right pad, especially considering how often games use L3/R3 joystick click which i fucking loathe.

Get a controller with underside buttons. I also consider stick-clicks an abomination, but it’s great now that there are under-buttons we can hard-remap to L3 and R3.

8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth controller has some awful ergonomics on several things, but the underbuttons are excellent examples.

yep that’s exactly what I do.

The Duke was so good!

Goronmon,

It’s been funny seeing the Playstation controller slowly morph into an Xbox controller. Which is great because I definitely preferred the Xbox controller since the 360.

I still prefer the offset sticks on the Xbox controller though.

Good bones? I thought the gameplay looked uninspired even taking into account it’s development age.

SuperSaiyanSwag,

This is exactly it. The game seemed fine, but it wasn’t doing anything to steal you away from your other games. On top of that it is $40, so there is barrier to entry. I feel bad for the developers, but the marketing team did not do enough research.

Right in the feels.

Probs not the only one around here going through the old podcast episodes every so often, eh?

Alien isolation stressed me out. For fun, run monster bash on an emulator.

I second Alien: Isolation. I always like to call it the best stress I've ever experienced while playing a game.

MrPoopbutt, do games w Spooky Games

Amnesia: the Bunker. A masterpiece in horror and very tense. It is my personal GOTY for 2023

Katana314,

Or, The Bunkererer: Also called “Conscript”, another survival horror game about World War 1.

@CharlesReed@fedia.io avatar

Man, I played this a couple months ago, and it is indeed tense. I had the same feeling playing this as I did Alien: Isolation. I was crawling on the ground most of the time, and I like that with every playthough the items are randomized. It's a solid entry to the entire Amnesia series (and better than Rebirth imo)
