I assume the delay from that is the reason they felt like they needed to announce a beta 1 year in advance.

Pretty big admittance from a company. Maybe they actually have a chance of getting their act together. https://www.eurogamer.net/cities-skylines-2-publisher-refunds-dlc-and-admits-we-let-you-down

https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/developer-diary/stellaris-dev-diary-340-a-new-crisis-a-release-date-and-announcing-the-stellaris-season-08.1662209/ Paradox is now offering season passes for Stellaris, meaning you get all the DLCs of the year for cheaper on a single buy. Good deal if you're like me and going to buy it anyway. Link also has some details on all the upcoming DLCs.

SW: Outlaws seems to have really predatory pricing.

Goblin Stone. A nice, bit more cheery version of Darkest Dungeon. Goblins don't level up, but if they die they give souls which you can use develop the goblin's den and make them all a little bit stronger.

So apparently Dragon's Dogma 2 is getting bad reviews. There seems to be some performance issues, but I also see lots of claims about having to pay for stupid stuff like starting a new character. No idea what is true, some of the claims are outrageous.

Looks like Swen was angry at Hasbro for laying off everyone they worked with at WotC https://www.eurogamer.net/baldurs-gate-3-boss-blasts-publisher-greed-behind-layoffs https://www.polygon.com/24003046/hasbro-layoffs-bg3-baldurs-gate-3-wotc-dnd

Does mean someone else will make D&D games. With the success, I'm sure the rights holders won't let it sleep. I think Obsidian was one of the studios who tried to get BG3.

"I've banned over 2 millions players throughout my career" I'd put that on my cv

In the early days of their launcher, Origin, they kept releasing old games for free on it now and then. So I guess this is just a continuity of that.

Fate Stay Night is coming to Steam/Switch. Old, visual novel classic. If you're even a bit interested in that sort of stuff, this is worth playing. (No gameplay other than branch choosing, and you probably want to use a walkthrough anyway.)

Looks like one of the 3 founding members of Blizzard, Allen Adham, also left with this. EDIT: Seems like he was the last one, the other two had already left before.

Can't wait to get to pick David Attenborough to voice my character.

It's voted by users, so it's kinda interesting compared to stuff just selected by pundits.

https://store.steampowered.com/steamawards Starfield won for "most innovative gameplay". I guess it really has some fans.

Is the info in the trailer correct? The description says the video is just that guys edit.

So, reading about these buffs you have to apply during combat, it sounds like Owlcat wanted to bring all that buffing from WotR to this one too. Or is this based on some GW rulesset?
