There are a few reviews talking about data harvesting clauses in the EULA. I haven’t looked into it but might be worth double checking if that concerns you.
I been playing for at least 6h, gameplay is identical to C&C games, very fun and nostalgic to play.
Beyond that story is meh ATM. Cutscenes feel boring and skipable. VA directions are non existent. I wouldn’t be surprised if its revealed later that all of it is AI voices.
Also no controller support, so you’ll need to configure keybinds if you want to play it on the steam deck.
Well most of the reviews says positive about this game and we lack scifi based RTS game with distinctive mechanism like this in many years that is why this release this should needs some love and by the way, I hope in the future they considered putting a charismatic leader with distinctive trait in one of the faction with eye-catching catchphrase as well. that will be awesome
I‘ve basically spent 17 bucks a month for 650 games and countless hours of fun, it‘s alright. I‘d be way more disappointed with myself if I looked at my League spending
There is no built-in (usable) browser on ps5 nor switch, and nintendo will burn to the ground before allowing people installing their own software on ‘their’ hardware.
No one can predict the future, especially not now, but things are clearly changing. Microsoft is getting messaging out there right now to let you know the ways that they’re rolling with the punches. The next Xbox, and corresponding handhelds, will in all likelihood just be thinly disguised PCs that absolutely let you just install Steam, Epic, etc. on them if you so choose. So in that world, when you can buy an Xbox that also plays PlayStation games that have released on PC, how does Sony compete with that? That’s very up in the air.
And for all the ways that Nintendo has historically handled consoles, they’re under new management now that may be open to doing things differently. The way they’re trying to press their market advantage at the moment, which was already going to result in fewer units sold, could be even further undone at the worst possible time for them by a stupid trade war. How will they choose to respond to that? Because bleeding money by sticking to their old ways isn’t going to be what happens. If they did burn to the ground, the insurance company that owns their intellectual property would dig them out of the ashes and sell them where they can make money again.
I wish warlock, “master of the arcane” and it’s sequel had done better, they were the perfect balance been civ and age of wonders, with twice the gameplay speed of either
The maps in act 2 and 3 already felt too long and repetitive, if normal mobs just take longer to clear that’s a big turnoff to an already underwhelming experience.
A very fair point, but alas… for better or worse, the bar has indeed been raised, and last month only proved that. February 2025 saw the release of a new RPG from one of the most beloved studios in the genre, Obsidian Entertainment. Avowed is modest by design, but nonetheless it’s polished, accessible, and visually impressive, with a rich story from some of the best writers in the business—and the backing of Microsoft, one of the most influential and well-resourced videogame publishers of all time.
Avowed is fantastic IMO. It’s been handcrafted and feels like a living place as opposed to Starfield which was expansive, siloed and impersonal. As a massive Skyrim and Mass Effect fan it is easily my fave game since BG3, probably even more than it in fact.
I loved PoE1, didn’t care much about PoE2, and will probably care less about Avowed. There’s something magical about a map full of tiles that aren’t revealed immediately compared to a world map that you can immediately tell how much has been explored.
Same thing for BG3. I love Larian (been a Kickstarter backer since the original D:OS days, been playing almost every one of their games on release day since Dragon Commander) and BG3’s a great RPG, but it doesn’t feel like a good BG game. BG2 gave an immediate sense of “I have no idea where to go so I can do whatever I want”. BG3 is always nudging you to uncover the map and clear all the quests.
A great game for sure. Probably my most awaited game release.
Only issue is that I need to finish factorio before that release and I wasn’t expecting the factorio DLC to extend the game by like 3x…
Anyway Manor lords was my most played single player game for 2024 in its rather barebone build and it was already a blast. Something that brings back when I was playing Settlers as a kid but with modern graphics.
Veilgaurd was a perfectly good game. It’s not a 10/10, but despite some flaws, I’ve had a great time playing it. Too bad some business suit says it’s not “successful” enough to warrant a follow-up.
I’d like to see how they measured success. Was it to break even? Well from what point? Including the time that it was supposed to be a live service game? Through the committees and executives shutting down ideas? It was in the top 10 for games on Steam that week and had generally favorable reviews. If that didn’t match their plan, that’s on them.
