So I paid him to respec, but fuck that. What's that skeleton going to do with my gold anyway? And why the fuck should I have to pay 100 gold because I accidentally chose the wrong spell? So I robbed that mf and got my gold back 😂 Don't read this unless you want to be spoiled about Wither's identity Spoiler He's Jergal the former god of strife, death, and the dead. He got basically bored of being deity and gave three mortals a portion of his power. The current gods Bhaal, Bane, and Myrkul are his successors. The temple you find him in, is dedicated to him. He's just so old of a god that he's been forgotten by most. Anyway, I'd be weary of messing with that guy. Not sure if there are repercussions though. Chadouken 1 Quote Link to comment

Hecatom Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 https://www.gamesradar.com/viral-developer-says-their-free-survival-game-and-squid-game-parodies-would-have-cost-them-dollar56-million-under-new-unity-rules/ Viral developer says their free survival game and Squid Game parodies would have cost them $5.6 million under new Unity rules By Ali Jones published 1 day ago Muck and Crab Game have been downloaded more than 28 million times Quote The developer of two free indie games that went viral says that new revenue rules planned by game engine provider Unity would have cost him more than $5 million in install fees. In June 2021, YouTuber Daniel Sooman released Muck, a parody low-res survival game that he made out of spite in no time flat and published on Steam for free. Not only was Muck genuinely good (I unironically have more than a dozen hours in it, and you can complete a run in around 90 minutes), it was also an interesting insight into game development, thanks to Sooman's video about the process of making the game. A few months later, Sooman followed Muck up with Crab Game, a parody of Squid Game's massive popularity in 2021. In addition to the Korean sensation, there's an obvious touch of Fall Guys to the gameplay, and Crab Game ended up being an even bigger sensation than Muck. Unfortunately, both games are made in Unity, which announced yesterday that new revenue rules would charge developers for every installation of their game over $200,000 in earnings and 200,000 installs. Developers across the industry immediately revolted, with indie studios explaining that the decision would likely force them to delay their games as they switch to new engines if it stands. Aggro Crab, developer of cult roguelike Going Under and anticipated Soulslike Another Crab's Treasure, led the charge with an explainer culminating in the immortal phrase "I f***ing hate it here." Sooman himself also took to social media to calculate the potential cost of his free games and their viral success. At a cost of 20 cents per install over the 200,000 install threshold, he calculates that the 28,000,000 downloads of Muck and Crab Game would have cost him $5.6 million. He acknowledges that between the threshold and the fact that the new fee only comes into effect from January 2024, that maths isn't perfect, but both games are still getting Steam reviews, implying recent, if not brand-new downloads. It's important to note that Sooman's interpretation of the change is not entirely accurate. Projects must meet the threshold for both revenue and installs, so a free game that earns no money wouldn't be subject. However, as we noted in interviews with several developers, the risk attached to giveaways, subscriptions, or charity bundles may now mean that many games that might have been available for free (or at least limited costs), would not be in future. Many developers have also implied an upcoming search for alternative engines, a process that is likely to hinder projects. Sonichuman and DoctaMario 2 Quote Link to comment
MillionX Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 There is a physical version of Cult of the Lamb for Switch, btw--- from what I hear they're pulling the game as of January 2024 due to the nonsense going on with Unity, so if one was thinking about getting that game... now would probably be the time to get the physical version before it permanently disappears. I'm not inclined to trust what happens to digital-only in the scenario where something is no longer on a digital storefront (*wouldn't you just be out of luck if for instance you get a new Switch some day... then you can't redownload since it's no longer on the store digitally? At least that's what I would assume happens.... and once again the physical media is the optimal choice.) Quote Link to comment

I think that's just a threat and nothing more from CotL devs. Unity is already starting to change their tune. For digital if you dont want it to go away just back that shit up on some other drive.

RegH81 Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I legit was hyped for F-ZERO 99. Sure, it isn't a 3D new game but I'm glad Nintendo acknowledged the series in some capacity. I thought I'd fire it up for a few races, but I ended up sitting down with the game for a good two hours. Instead of playing until you're eliminated, you see how well you can do and get points based on your place and performance. And races are freaking insane. I've already seen videos of people placing first. Sonichuman, DoctaMario, BornWinner and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment

Sonichuman Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 I know there's some people understandably upset about F-Zero 99 but after looking some gameplay footage of people playing it, I think there's is a definite silver lining to this. This game was not a simple port up job. This looks like they put a fair amount of work into this that they're letting people play for "free". This could easily be their semi way of them testing the waters or potentially a sign of things to come because they could have easily just made a 99 off of a different IP but they chose this one specifically. It's not what people wanted at all but I think people should be at least give them game a shot first before dismissing it out right and hopefully this can lead to something else down the line. There's a couple other details regarding SMRPG on the Japanese website There's an Easy Mode (not necessary imo but doesn't hurt anything by being there) and also the ability to play the original OST if you want. Also Thousand Year door is definitely in Remakester territory RSG3 and Wellman 1 1 Quote Link to comment

There's a certain element of luck involved and it was on Death Wind, which I presume a lot of newbies picked because the layout looks easy (joke's on them). Haven't won anything else since then, but the kudos points are in my bad and will never go away.

MillionX Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 ...because that anime "Baki" is what it is... the characters as a crossover in anything are just going to look like generic custom-characters to me....pure default, no changes, no clothes/designs added; they just went to custom-mode and hit the "confirm" button immediately to start playing.
