At one point MaxEnt had announced an Avatar fighting game, but then silently canceled it when everything imploded. So this appears to be a revival of that.
Over a month ago we were told that TFH’s IP had been sold to a new owner, and they’d have an announcement within a month. Announcement still hasn’t happened, but the publisher on Steam was silently changed to Gameplay Group International, along with Diesel Legacy’s.
If you’re asking the rest of the world to just never discuss the thing that’s at the center of nearly all major world news, that is a hard ask.
I know it’s not pleasant, I get if you don’t like hearing about it, but there’s really not any way of getting away from it.
I’ll be that guy. I do think the Tetris: The Grand Master series built on it in really good ways (shame this style was then discarded in favor of Guideline, but that’s a rant for another day), but classic Tetris kind of just falls apart as soon as you start to get good at it.
It’s a product of its time, but I honestly feel there’s an entire genre worth of better puzzle games that came after it, and I have a small chip on my shoulder at the fact that Tetris is the only one that gets any recognition while every other IP lies dead and buried.
Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! (1987)
Farnsworth: These are the dark matter engines I invented. They allow my starship to travel between galaxies in mere hours.
Cubert: That’s impossible. You can’t go faster than the speed of light.
Farnsworth: Of course not. That’s why scientists increased the speed of light in 2208.
The only Switch 2 game I even have right now is Deltarune. But I know I’m buying Kirby Air Riders, and I figured it’d be best to make sure I get the console right away in case tariffs fuck anything up by then.
There actually was a new Madou that came out last year. Heard it wasn’t very good though…
TBH, I don’t think the originals hold up very well either…
I hate that Discord has taken over most communities and put them in a place unindexed by search engines. I hate it so much.
But this is where users all go in Current Year, and I don’t blame game developers for following the crowd. Especially for smaller multiplayer games, if you want to sustain an active community you’ve gotta have that #matchmaking channel for players to organize.
Also, tbh, Steam Forums ain’t great either. At least they’re searchable, but that’s all that can be said about them. In my experience they’ve often devolved into the most toxic hellholes due to Valve’s lack of moderation. Also not ideal for anything multiplatform, that only covers Steam users.
The other alternative is reddit, but, well, I’m here because I refuse to ever go back to reddit, so, y’know.
I haven’t gotten all the way down to 2 yet, but at the rate I’m going, I could see it. I’ve settled into mostly grinding the same few forever games while the mainstream industry moves further and further away from my tastes.
I’m here making a point, and you’re willfully ignoring that point to pretend I agree with you.
Did you miss the part where I’m pointing out the fact that it won’t happen? I’m not agreeing with you, I’m making a point.
They may not know how their own voice sounds, but they are definitely aware that Deaf people are often perceived as sounding odd. Some Deaf people put a lot of practice into learning how to speak, sometimes even with the help of a vocal coach. Others may choose not to even try because of it.
