I like the idea of the game but not too much else. Seems like the entire Joy focus is underutilized gameplay-wise. It's just something to use to get past guards and shit. Hell, people will still sometimes attack you even when you're using. It should cause story changes, hallucinations, and changes in gameplay. Not just something you use to get past tough areas.

It's still not finished, but an indie survival roguelike doesn't appeal to me much. I like the themes, but honestly it'd probably be better as a survival horror game or an adventure/puzzle game. Something with consistent level design and solid puzzle/gameplay mechanics that help form the story rather than procedural generation of environments and wonky stealth. Much easier to tell a story that way and it seems like story is the biggest thing they have going on.

Compulsion, I love you guys and the game seems great, but stick to shilling at Reddit.

As for everyone else, the game looks great and it's an interesting concept, and it's definitely my most anticipated game so far (as sad as that sounds) but I'm really worried that the combat will be too clunky and the stealth aspect by taking the drug to blend in won't be implemented that well considering it's a smaller studio on a budget. But we'll see.

In what universe does Scalebound, a game about melee combat and pointing a dragon's mouth at things, look at all like a TPS with hacking and sneaking?

Do you think both games are in third person so they are the same game?

>>341565285

I'm personally undecided if it's being shilled here or not, it's certainly possible. But you're a fool if you don't think /v/ is anything but a prime target for shilling. Look at how many unique visitors /v/ alone sees. Any company would be foolish not to. We also have strong evidence that TOR was shilled here. I assume any major game from any major publisher is shilled to some extent. The good ones add value and stimulate discussion, though I still don't like it. The bad ones spam and try to ridicule any and all criticism.

I have no fucking clue why anyone would want to shill on /v/. Nobody buys video games here and everybody hates whatever's new and popular. Hiring someone to astroturf on /v/ just seems like a wasted investment.

Don't be a cheeky cunt. You know that I'm talking about games that are meant to simulate normal life in an abnormal situation. Stuff like Stranded or Don't Starve.
>>
>>341566239

Attention. Doesn't even have to be good attention, though that helps. There are a lot of eyeballs here, and plenty of obsessives who buy games. Even if they don't, we will talk about games with people we know, many of whom will buy games.

You have a simplistic view of things. We are very cynical as a whole, but when games do things right we're their biggest fans. They just don't do that often. You may not have seen how much support minecraft got from /v/ when Notch was a frequent open visitor, after it grew from TIGsource and before he moved to the reddit hugbox.

Any game with any dystopian themes at all is just a copy of Bioshock, the only game that has ever had any dystopian themes.

It's heavily inspired by Bioshock--the devs say this all the time

>>341566675

Thematic and artistic. Retroism, broken attempt at utopia, alternate history. Inspired by I'd agree with, they would have been less likely to make it if Bioshock wasn't a success. But the actual gameplay and procedural aspect means it's inherently much smaller in scope. I'm sure if they had the budget they would have gone for a big story with setpieces akin to Bioshock, though.

>>341565285
>>341566026

Maybe its a more passive shilling. The game was kickstarted so there's some anon's invested in the game already. As a backer myself I know that I'm sort of like a shill lite. Except I paid for the privilege.

I'm just going to try and be cautiously optimistic about the game. I love the art style and the idea of surviving in an area that's not a wasteland or wilderness interesting. My biggest concerns are the fact that its procedurally generated means that the world would have difficulty fitting in strong features. My second concern is that its Compulsion games. I didn't know until after I backed but Contrast was a game with a great concept and art direction but then ended up lacking a lot of substance. I'm a bit concerned that the same thing could happen here.
