I shelved Entropy : Zero 2 until I am done with my PC Stellar Blade run.

But in terms of interesting, for the last 1 or two Half Life fans in the audience; I highly recommend checking out Entropy: Zero 2

Also, Stellar Blade peaked at 180k concurrent players yesterday. Pretty damn impressive seeing as Spider-man 2 (which is from a colossal IP) couldn't clock 30k players on Steam release a few months ago.

I am very curious to see the weekend numbers.

@HaseoVII fully agreed. The thing is when you make games to make money you make games like Stellar Blade and Black Myth. The numbers speak for themselves. If you make a game to send a message, you make games like AC Shadows. Concord. Dustborn, Unknown 9, and any other nonsense involved with the likes of Sweet Baby Inc. The numbers never lie...

Wukong (nothing against Astro Bot but Wukong was robbed lol) and Stellar Blade have set the bar. Western devs need to step up.

Western devs are so afraid of making games that have attractive women, and that aren't inclusive to everyone. This may be a hot take, but I firmly believe that not everything needs to be inclusive. If everything catered to everybody, the world would be an incredibly boring and predicatable place

Hi everyone,

Please take some time to read through this and discuss in comments below.

We are in the process of restructuring and revising our forums, that being said we would like to look at what would make the forums more approachable and inviting to both new and seasoned members of the forums. It is important to understand that our forums have been running for a long time and in its evolution rules and changes have to be updated and implemented. If you have any ideas or suggestions to improve the experience of you and other users, please comment below. If you wish to remain anonymous in, feel free to pm either myself, Tea or Trevor with your thoughts.

When the re-launch of the forums takes place we want to make them a vibrant and diverse place to share thoughts, news and opinions. We want to invite new users to enjoy this feature,however it appears that potential forum users are put off by the abrasiveness of certain current users. In an effort to create an inviting environment for users we ask for current users to suggest new rules to be implemented to make new users feel more welcome.

We appreciate all users who have complied with these rules over time and maintained the decorum and fair behavior we value.

Please also take a look at the current rules of the forums as often these are overlooked by users.

Eurogamer has a fantastic system of accumulative upvote/downvote on comments. Fanboys and trolls are negged into oblivion.

To add on to what Snow said if you wouldn't dare say something face to face or in public don't say it in a forum post.

Fine line I think. Guess that's for the mods to decide, but in this case I reckon emoticons are your friend.

There is a reporting system on forum posts. Perhaps there could so be on the chatbox?
