It's basically a Kickstarter failure that got bailed out by Epic money. And it's dead on arrival. And everybody could see that. People try making new srena shooters and they are always dead on arrival.

I'm sure it is. How many people are going to be playing it 6 months from now? Even Hyperscape seems to be dying and that game has a gigantic budget, is developed by Ubisoft and had probably millions invested into marketing the game.

Also, I see they put out a $100k tournament for Diabotical. I'm sure that's incredibly sustainable.

Iron harvest multiplayer is a lot of fun. I like how the focus is on managing the battles with retreats and unit rotations. The cover system makes blobbing pretty bad which is cool. Units die a lot slower than in SC so its very easy for puny brained players like myself to do the usual RTS multitasking. Fighting battles on two or three sides of the map is not a super sweaty experience.

$50 is a lot for a dead genre but it's definitely the best rts iv played in a while

its arena fps so its not fortnite and its arena fps so thats a strong indicator nobody will play it

i feel like theres just too much of a generational disconnect and unfortunately for the people that wax on memories of quake i dont think theres much new appetite for arena shooters these days

I played the first beta weekend and it was incredibly fun getting smashed as an AFPS scrub. But it being an AFPS I don't see it surviving. Esp. with Bethesda being the competitor and practically forcing some Quake legends to their game with exculivity clauses in the contracts, which, in turn, undermines the whole marketing aspect of Diabotical being an esports game.

There are like 3 actual devs and only one of them could write the engine from ground up. Also double that development cycle, it's been THAT long since 2GD announced that game.

The combat difficulty in witcher was way too easy by default. Leveling was pointless. The whole alchemy part was meh.

Just get the forgotten realms games on your phone if you want a good RP experience. Baldur's gate works great.

Also waiting for someone to make PUBG clone, genre is dead atm. I guess publishers don't want free billions.

Fortnite children's game genre tho, forgot it was a BR.
Don't think it had significant overlap with PUBG demographic anyway.

To be honest the trailer gave me really big "teen" vibes similar to stuff like Hunger Games, Twilight, etc. Although I've heard the books aren't really that "teen". My interest isn't really piqued to be honest.

I might go read the books though since everyone says they are awesome.

Books aren't teen at all. Would be a weird choice to make them teen.

Don't forget to make the difference between the OG and the books written by his son. I personally don't mind them, except for the end.
The first book can be seen as a Hunger Games since you follow Paul who loses everything, stir up a rebellion and take the emperor down.

They are kinda teen books because I bet most of us read them in our late teens

Il watch it but the David Lynch version with Sting playing the harkonnen kid is the definitive version imk

I'm very curious if theyl make sequels cuz I have no idea how you fit the second and third books into a conventional hollywood big budget script
+ Show Spoiler +
not to say a 3 hour movie with a huge budget about an omniprescient worm-god living a tragic existence before eventually arranging his own assassination wouldn't be fucking awesome

I see they have 3 seasons of this already. I remember watching the first episode and thought it had potential at the time, but I just kind of forgot about it after that though.

Maybe I need to get back into it.
