thanks for sharing the chart! I doubt they Sony takes a hint from this too, but it certainly shows other developers and publishers something about signing contracts with Sony…
Didn’t think this was real at first read. But holy fudge it it is… Game is now being review bombed on steam. Here’s an additional article from Gaming on Linux:
No rest for No Rest For The Wicked’s developers, it seems. The punishing action-RPG launched in Steam Early Access last week with performance issues, among other issues, and Moon Studios have now deployed their first hotfix.
Performance improvements are “coming soon”, they say, while this update focuses on improvements to balance and several of the game’s core systems. Among them, the update reduces durability damage taken to gear, reduces repair costs, increases the drop rate on Repair Powders, and reduces stamina costs and fall damage. Here’s the full list of changes:

When I poked through user reviews on Steam earlier in the week, durability and repair costs were two of core complaints I saw. To my surprise, if I’m honest. No Rest For The Wicked seems clearly to be courting dodge-roll melee fetishists, who I assumed to be video game masochosts, and yet they seemed to be pounding dirt and crying uncle. Or maybe it just really was bonkers unfair.
Earlier this week, Moon outlined a list of known issues, with solutions to some, if you’re experiencing a proble the above patch doesn’t fix. Remappable controls are coming soon, too.
oh really? I’ve not seen it been used with sarcasm myself yet, but can say that this was not meant with sarcasm either. The game really does look good! I think i tend to use the word “gem” for more niche, hidden, but good games. Although, I’ve yet to find out if this is a TRUE gem or not…
Agreed, I recently bought slay the spire on mobile, and while it is a little expensive for a mobile game it’s so well worth it! Especially if you haven’t played it before. Such a quality game and highly addictive 😅
