We will see if Valve will step in and do something about this as it's just a gambling in it's pure form and Valve could have a legal issues because of it in some countries.

As I see what I'm playing is not on the list as usual. :-D

I'm currently playing Death Stranding: Director's Cut and it's working really well on Steam Deck now.

Quoting: dvdI'll honestly say if someone thinks BG3 was worth the full price, they will think the same of WHRG. This is not based on the usual D&D ruleset, but on Warhammer (modified) ruleset, which is refreshing (and a lot simpler than the previous games imo.) It is also turn based, which is a nice change (I hated the RTWP system). Much like BG3, it has been in a good state now, not many bugs. (encountered none on my last playthrough.)

Regarding the RTWP system, I recently played Pillars Of Eternity 2: Deadfire and they added turn based combat to the game, so that is another one you can try :-)

That are great news. I plan to play it on Steam Deck :-)

Maybe not putting so much effort into making the game unable to play on anything else then switch it would be better to spend the money supporting more devices through yuzu project, so it doesn't need to do special hacks to actually allow the games to be played on something else.

But in case of Nintendo that is probably just a dream.

I already have around 60 hours on it. Looking forward to go back to Halls of Torment, especially when there is something new to explore :-)

Quoting: ZlopezBut PoE is Free to Play so it's understandable that you have microtransactions. Diablo IV and Last Epoch aren't.

Ok, Wolcen is more similar for funding the game - it's just less successful.
Buy "license" for playing, get access - microtransactions for longterm sustainability of the game.

If the game is still fun to play without using microtransactions. But usually you want people manipulate to use microtransactions, so you are making things slower without money for longer playing players.

There are few games that actually use microtransactions just for cosmetics, which is then on you to buy them or not and I think in this case it's great (especially without lootboxes).

Quoting: SoulprayerLast time I tried Last Epoch with Linux native, it didn't work good.
But with Proton it's runs pretty well.
I'll install it anyway again, when 1.0 hits the countdown.

Quoting: ZlopezI'm wondering if Last Epoch has actually better monetization than Diablo IV.

Last Epochs monetization is a little bit like PoE.

PoE? You mean Pillars of Eternity? I don't think that has anything else than price tag + DLCs, which is OK.

I'm wondering if Last Epoch has actually better monetization than Diablo IV. I don't like the microtransactions in game, especially in games that I buy for full price.

Last Epoch looks like a good alternative to Diablo in this case.
