So my season pass for Republique shat itself and I did in fact get charged for episode 2. Coupled with it dropping my file on reinstall this time I am completely done with it, 'free' season or not. The thing is a loving mess. It will say you're not going to be charged when restoring your season pass after which it promptly throws the cost at you, you say okay and it then says 'no, you don't have to pay after all', you download the drat thing and when it's done go to get episode two and another price tag comes up. You assume 'hey, it didn't charge me after the fact last time!' and apprehensively say yes. Then the season pass you have does gently caress all and you just paid for the episode after all. The 'you' in the scenario is me and I am not happy about this. Do not get this game. There looks to be every chance you'll throw money at them to get content you've already paid them for because they have no idea how to handle restoring purchases (or how to have their season pass actually function but that'd have been less of an issue if it didn't also look like I was having to rebuy the pass too). Goddamn.

They probably should have done some research on what's possible within the very narrow confines of what iTunes Connect lets you control for IAP and giving out copies of your game before promising a season pass and console/PC style DLC.

I've been playing wayward souls and my biggest complaint is I don't like the controls. It's very difficult for me to trigger the special actions.

It is too difficult to play causally and too repetitive to really devote a lot of time too when paying full attention too. I'm starting to think I should just give up on ios games, other then adventure games and turn-based wargames stuff, nothing I have tried has really captured my interest. Maybe it is a lack of nostalgia but the 8-bit look and difficulty-as-a-selling-point trends don't do anything for me. One of these goons is right. One is wrong. I guess i'll have to spend the bucks and find out.

Sega released some new F2P game called Dragon Coin. Its an unholy marriage between coin dozers (my guilty pleasure) and PaD-styled monster collecting. It's basically PaD with a coin dozer as your main interface. The trappings are all there. Fusing, evolving, tiered dungeons, special dungeons, limited inventory you can extend with premium currency, friends and friend abilities, and so forth. I found it pretty entertaining though. They're giving out premium currency since its newly launched so its a good time to give it a whirl if you're inclined.

Surviving and winning is 80% avoiding bullets. Each enemy telegraphs their moves pretty well, so you got to used to their timing and taking pot shots when you can.

Let's talk Wayward Souls. I love this game. I hate the way it works on my Air - the shield is worthless - I have been seriously injured so many times when instead of pulling up the shield it makes a swing instead. Aaaaaaaaa. Fix it Kepa please, before I go insane.

And I checked out Record Run from Harmonix and it's okay I guess. Looks nice but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot to it and for some reason it keeps telling me my music is protected so it can't use it.

So did that angry bird RPG ever come out of soft release? It looked kinda fun, ultimately I'm not going to waste the time to make a Canadain account for a F2P RPG.

Just so you know it's SO easy to switch regions on an account. On your iPhone/ipad click settings, click on App Store, click on your username, click "change billing information" & change your country to Canada (with a payment method of "None" selected) & that's it. Takes 30 seconds to do, 30 seconds to switch back to US.

Valicious posted:What's the controls like on KotoR? Commands (battle/skills) are given through simple enough on screen buttons while movement is handled using swipes. Right and left turns the camera. Up and down moves you forward and backward based on the camera orientation. It's relatively painless.

Valicious posted:What's the controls like on KotoR? On the iPad my experience has been pretty good. The whole "pause at the start of combat" mechanic from the original PC version makes it very forgiving. Swiping to move can be mildly annoying when turning around but the controls are surprisingly good over all. On the iPhone I found it a little more cramped but totally playable on the go. The ability to designate one of your save games as your cloud save and use it between devices is also very cool. The bulk of my play is on the iPad at home but it's a neat option to have. It's been a fun walk down memory lane replaying it so far. Going dark side is so much fun. Running around being a murderous evil rear end in a top hat at every opportunity.

Sad lions posted:So my season pass for Republique shat itself and I did in fact get charged for episode 2. I invite you to check out the poo poo show that is their Kickstarter comments- https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/486250632/republique-by-camouflaj-logan/comments Basically, it was the announcement of a PC version that served as the catalyst for general gaming sites posting about the Kickstarter and people backing the game based on it being playable on their PC. Still no sign on that, and they just posted it's not going to hit until between episodes 3 and 4 on iOS... Despite the fact that there were more backers for the PC reward tier than the iOS reward tier. Additionally, swag isn't shipping until after episode 5. It's been fascinating watching all these big Kickstarters try to manage expectations after promising the moon to hit their goals.

Ugh Just bought KotoR and the sound doesn't work on my 4S. What is the deal with making games with obscenely small text these days? I couldn't play Tiny Dice either because of that. $10 down the drain. iOS really needs to implement something similar to a ten minute return policy like Google Play.

I am loving Kiwanuka (http://appshopper.com/games/kiwanuka). I love the art, reminds me a bit of Monument Valley. One of the posts here says it's like Lemmings, so I was a little worried because I hate Lemmings, but it's not really like it at all. The puzzles can be really tricky for such a simple mechanic (stack people up to use as a bridge).

I've played KoToR fine on my 4S and iPad with sound after they added cloud saves. Maybe a reset or reinstall will fix it? Yeah the text size is a bit ridiculous, maybe a bit more effort in making games universal than shrinking everything down in resolution?

Playing on my iPhone 5s was ok but I definitely prefer my iPad 3rd gen for it. I could certainly muddle through on the phone but the controls are smoother on the tablet. Text size didn't bother me on the 5s but maybe the extra screen size makes a difference?
