Its music level released on YT gave it a lot of exposure. If even that wasn’t enough, what hope do we have for an Alan Wake 3 or Control 2 without a crappy tacked-on monetization scheme? Because thats always next if a singleplayer game series doesn’t make as much money as the publishers wanted it to.
The headline is kinda misleading. Yes it hasn’t recouped costs yet, but they sound confident it will. It’s the best performing Remedy game ever released
Edit: misleading maybe not the right word. “Doesn’t tell the full story” is probably better
I haven’t finished it yet, but AW2 is a dramatic step up in the entire experience. They still “pay homage” to the original combat, but there aren’t nearly as many enemies. If you’re familiar with the Control story and like that universe, I’d say it’s a must play.
I'm convinced they would have done so much better if it hadn't been Epic exclusive. I know more than one person who won't play it on PC because of this.
It's a great game otherwise.
It also likely wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t an epic exclusive (they funded it). I do wish they could have gotten someone else to publish it of course, but I’m thankful the game exists at all, it’s really outstanding
This made me realize I haven’t played it yet. I looked up the sales prices and realized why. It hasn’t really gone on sale for a price that I would be comfortable paying. I loved the first one back in the day. I haven’t tried control yet. Might give that a go in the meantime
It also didn’t release as a physical copy. New digital releases in the UK at least are always pretty expensive, whereas with physical copies there’s at least a chance of a small discount from a retailer.
If I understand correctly something like “touch AI” is already used, at least on keyboards. It’s actually very difficult to touch what you think you’re touching on a phone screen, so your device does some degree of prediction of where you really wanted to touch.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, no, seriously, battery management is now AI, and it's not just a rebrand of the same power management scheme we've had for years, honest. hahahahahahahahahahaha
