Technically yes. However, the company buildings are directly across the street, the studio behind this game used to be part of Hirez , the founder of both is the same person and ofcourse the Tribes franchise is property of Hirez. It really seems like these companies are the same entity under the hood

It's surprising to me that they didn't shutdown Tribes 3 Rivals as well. Can't imagine it makes them much money at this point

If you're not excited about Brighter shores then I really don't know, for some reason no one else has ever tried to make the same type of game (aside from Genfanad and Titanreach, both of which have shut down quickly after release)

You could check out Project: Gorgon, it's something of a mix between Runescape's multitude of slow-to-level, interconnected skills on one character and a more typical MMO with distinct classes, buildcrafting and group content. It has a free demo on Steam. All of that said it's only vaguely similar, and I wouldn't mention it if there was anything closer to OSRS.

The game is free, you can also get it on the author's blog or through itch.io

The Last Sovereign (NSFW) is an 18+ RPGmaker game. The basic premise is this: What if you had a setting with a bunch of hentai tropes lumped together and played straight, with no porn logic or stupid characters?

You play as a middle aged, very competent army veteran who gains the powers of an incubus, and reluctantly uses them with the aim of making the world a better place, slowly developing a harem of well realized, cool characters along the way. There's sex scenes, obviously, but you very quickly forget all about them as you are plunged into an underdog story where you have to manage your fledgling armies + resources and have to constantly make tough decisions.

The video author posted this comment under the video which goes over his main claims:

"Claims I provide evidence for in this video:

  1. Many MrBeast videos are fake, contests are unfairly rigged, and contestants are often undisclosed friends and family of MrBeast employees, or employees themselves.

  2. MrBeast has run multiple illegal lotteries targeting children. (I estimate they profited over $10,000,000 from these lotteries)

  3. MrBeast knowingly sold merch with fake autographs while claiming on his website that “The autographed piece is genuine”. (fraud imo)

Also MrBeast knew about Kris being a pdf"

I don't get the other comments, this isn't something unusual or praiseworthy, TF2 has been getting these "updates" consisting of a new lootbox + community maps of dubious quality, consistently for years

Very reasonable, I hope the dev sticks to his guns and keeps a manageable pace. I feel that it's right to expect content updates coming in if the game is marked early access, but so long as you don't pull a Valheim, people shouldn't be mad at you

"A preliminary investigation indicates Kang knew the victim only online, having met him playing a fantasy video game called ArcheAge. According to the game's website, it is shutting down its North America and European servers this week because of a declining number of users. "

No wonder they don't have players left, this dude beat them all to death

Artisan TD, a classic tower defense game. I quit after the second map. It's not that it's bad, it just didn't grab my attention, doesn't seem to have anything unique going for it besides maybe the pretty visuals. There are dozens of games exactly like this one. As a fan of the genre, I might check it out after release if it's on a large sale.

Level Zero: Extraction, a PvP extraction shooter with the option of playing as the horror creature team that's out to kill everyone. Basically unplayable, not sure what the server situation is but playing from europe I had consistent 0.5sec-1sec delay on all actions. No comment since I couldn't really experience it.

Let's Minesweeper, a massively multiplayer game of Minesweeper. Not sure what I expected of this one, it's exactly what it says it is, you load into a huge map of minesweeper and clear it out for score and xp which translates into bragging rights and cosmetics (?). Unique experience and could be fun if you are the type of person who enjoys zoning out at minesweeper for an hour.

Mortal online 2

I got my fix for this experience through PvP minecraft servers, but not sure if any are still around today that are worth playing

I put the video into an AI summarization tool, the TLDR is that the Johto region in gold and silver is a replica of Japan.

 

Steam Next Fest, which is a regular event for showcasing upcoming games, is happening now on steam and will continue until February 12 at 10:00 AM PST (UTC-8).

With hundreds of demos available, even if you're only interested in a fraction of the games it's going to be difficult to try everything before the event ends. With that in mind, I'm hoping people can use this thread to share their thoughts on the titles they've played.

Which games did you enjoy, and which do you think suck? Please share your thoughts!
