I think Microsoft is betting that not everyone wants to deal with PC stuff.

As someone who deals with PC and Linux stuff at work all the time, having to do that when I'm not working too could not be less appealing. Consoles are pretty much designed for someone like me.

Oh, Empire of Sin has a new trailer? It's gangster tactics and area management. Paradox published. Brenda and John Remero making it.

Don't get your hopes up on Demon's Souls PC, it seems more and more that it was an actual error on the slide and not an "oops we announced a thing we didn't mean to" error.

I wouldn't be surprised if it did come to PC eventually, but the "Other consoles" thing means you're almost certainly correct the slide was wrong. It's not coming to Xbox, that's for sure.

That DS trailer looks off to me. And I dont just mean the awful font for YOU DIED. I also didn't recognize a lot of the play area? I'm actually struggling to remember the beginning of the game pre-nexus

I'm pretty sure the early part of that demo was a 1:1 remake of the pre-Nexus area. I'm not sure about when they got inside the castle.

You can rescue food that’s gone bad by cooking it. Just a lil life hack for y’all. If your cooked food went bad it’s all over though

Important addendum to this: Some bacteria produce toxins that aren't destroyed by cooking. This is, at best, a gamble.

in PoE2, if you ally with the pirate faction, you get to commandeer a ghost ship and sail it to the setting's equivalent of atlantis

you go there no matter who you ally with but most of the time you don't go there in a ghost ship

You can also ally with no-one and go there in your super upgraded ship while giving every other faction the finger and utterly tearing apart the Deadfire. 10/10 game.

I have this, Tyranny and Divinity OS2 all in the backlog, which one is worth playing first?

I think Deadfire is my favourite of the three, though I enjoyed all of them. They all scratch different itches though. OS2 is really a series of combat puzzles which can be solved in really imaginative ways using the mechanics, the story did nothing for me. Tyranny has a cool setting - be magic bronze age Judge Dredd, but in many ways feels a bit rushed, and the cooldown based RTWP didn't do much for me. Deadfire has a great story (though the cool stuff is mainly in the side quests rather than the pretty short main quest), cool tropical environments and the best implementation of the RTWP combat I've ever come across.

So yeah tldr: OS2 for combat puzzles, Tyranny for bronze age law schenanigans, Deadfire for a well rounded RPG that ticks all the traditional boxes.

Yeah, MS is absolutely committed to just buying the entire third party market since they know they can't compete on the first party front.


Itll probably hurt Bethesda in the long run but fine I guess. As long as Doom and TES6 are still on Steam.

I mean, buying everything is how you compete on the first party front.

I wonder if Sony's eyeing up any similar acquisitions at the moment. They must be a little nervous about Microsoft's strategy.


MS only seems to be buying western studios so maybe Sony will start sweeping the Japanese market.

What even is there to buy that has TES power? Nintendo? Much as I love Final Fantasy, Square's definitely a tier lower.

I think anyone who thinks ZeniMax/Bethesda games might still come to other consoles--barring Deathloop, which had a preexisting arrangement that probably won't change at this point--is underestimating the value to Microsoft of getting people on the Xbox platform. If there's anyone out there whose console buying decision can be even somewhat influenced by "can I play Skyrim on it?" then there's more reason for Skyrim: Yet Another Enhanced Port Edition to be only on Xbox and not PS5.

Would they make money from selling copies on PS5? Sure. But they'd make a lot more money in the long term if they instead drove up Xbox sales, got more people on Game Pass, etc.

Ghostwire too, I think.

the more exciting thing to me is that this means the PlayStation market will be hungry for open world WRPGs, so there's a big opportunity for someone else to get big doing those and potentially do them better and not a trashfire

Who though? Other than CDPR, Obsidian and Bethesda I can't think of any developers with a proven track record in the modern third/first person open world RPG space. There's Guerilla, but Horizon really felt like a different thing.

As if the games industry wasn't consolidated enough already. I really hope this is the biggest acquisition we see in a long time and things don't escalate to, say, Microsoft buying Warner Games and Sony buying Capcom or Square-Enix.
