The Callisto Protocol is one of the most anticipated games of this year but the launch has not been going great. With Steam users reporting terrible technical issues.
The Epic Games Store continues their giving ways and have a AAA title to add to your library, plus a fun 5v5 MOBA game as well
Eh. Finally played Callisto Protocol via Gamepass. It was fine, but didn't feel like playing more than a couple hours in. I'll still grab it for free though. Have yet to purchase anything from the EPIC store, but still have over 20 games in my library.
Maybe it would be smarter to just play the free stuff on Epic rather than pay for a Microsoft rental service that gets removed from your library.
I have over 450 games in my Epic library and haven't purchased anything from Epic. Ever.
honestly even tho I still prefer steam, over the last 4 years I always collected the weekly epic games, and now suddenly when you look at your library one day you realize you picked up around 400 free games a good portion of which are AAA, big win, and with gog, amazon prime, crazy powerful gpu's like 4090, windows 11 being way better than the dark days of windows 8 there has never been a better time to be a pc gamer, this is simply the best time for pc gaming fhat I can remember.
Basically epic for the free games, steam for the deals and both for the free of charge online play amongst other things.
What is everyone's guess on the Next Xbox I'd like to know.
I really think it'll be a PC Console that's open to all Game Stores. I think there will be more than one version aswell including a high end expensive one.
It looks like it's the only way out for Microsoft but an interesting one too..
From ex Dead Space devs, The Callisto Protocol is a hidden horror game gem, and now director Glen Schofield opens up on production problems.
I played it a year later after release on series x and there wasn't any problems, although that is a problem lol
All too common for games to have ridiculously long dev cycles and have so much cut. Also too common for newer IPs to have their dev cycle cut short and be forced out before they're anywhere near a complete state. We're playing incomplete games either way cept some get good scores others are thrown to the wolves. 70 dollar standard be doin fine work this gen.
There's that, but these companies know they can hook people with early previews. Show proof of concept with a nice cinematic CG trailer and then show some gameplay with pretty graphics and then push out an incomplete product. Your modern consumer is overprotective about products they know nothing about, they will buy things without much thought.
Game was a already-done-before regurgitated mess. More content was not going to save it. Stepped off on the wrong foot altogether. Even free, it goes unplayed.
There are points in the game that felt like it was drawn out so if content was cut then it was probably for the better.
The Callsto Protocol 2 plans shared by Glen Schofield, as he also confirms they had to cut enemies and bosses in the first game.
Why? The DLC pretty much wrapped everything up and was awful.
Especially what they did to Jacob over making a sequel which could have gave him better character development.
Callisto Protocol is an extremely underrated game (after the updates). Krafton, however, made a mistake by looking to overmonetize a single player game by cutting out content and selling it as dlc. Paying for extra death animations was scummy. And you can't get away with that crap with a new IP. Save it the sequel or, better yet, don't do it at all. Survival horror is a crowded market.
I agree, I played and enjoyed the game very much.
Paying for death animations was a ridiculous proposition from the start, and was destined to fail.
I still play from time to time, kept installed on my pc and even some mods (dlss mod and some INI config optimizations) improved even more the experience. It is still an fun experience and the graphics and animations helps me want to go back even more... Yeah, paying for death animations: what they were thinking?
Replies(3)amazing horror game and unbelievable graphics, really happy that a sequel is being discussed.
Remember they said this was a AAAA game.
It seems to be suffering issues on all platforms.
They also have issues scoring good reviews.
I was hoping for this one to be a good one.
Funny thing is that Sony helped develop this game... sooooo, guess which system it plays the best?
