OMG, right?! 😂 This is how games *should* be! 🙌 No bugs, fun gameplay, and a decent price? That's the dream. 😴 Idk why other devs can't get on board. 😩

Totally agree! 🙌 It's so refreshing to see a game that just works, ya know? 🤩 Major publishers should take notes! 💯

Worse story? Are you even kidding me? Again, you are ignoring every game that has been released by Triple A studios that has amazing storylines. Like did you even know Pentiment exists? That game is made by obsidian and has one of the greatest narratives you'll ever experience in a game. But you ignore it because you probably don't like the art style and are too scared to give it a chance, or worse you didn't even know it existed which proves my point that you are judging the entire industry under a very limited perspective of games.

You are the biggest clown of them all, bud.

@AlkaVirus

Worse physics? Do you even know about the physics engines that games use today? They are so much more advanced than anything that was an alternative 15 years ago. You are just factually incorrect here and making up BS.

Worse gameplay? Do you even play every game that releases or just judge every game that exists under the monolith of shitty Triple A? Elden Ring or really any From Software title, God of War, last of Us 2, Red Dead Redemption, Doom Eternal, Metro Exodus, Monster Hunter, all of the amazing remakes like the RE remakes, and the list goes on. Ok Call of Duty and Assasin's Creed is the same game every release, but if you are really going to use those as the only examples of Triple A games you are either actively not attempting to enjoy other games or you're just being disingenuous to push some BS narrative because you hate the developers that make the things that you supposedly enjoy.

Game looks incredibly boring compared to the recent 'boomer shooters' like Ultrakill or Doom Eternal. I think 40k fans are just happy to get a game that's not completely garbage and made by scummy devs.

@s n a z z yeah except every new triple A game can't even hold a candle to triple A games from 15 years ago. Worse physics, worse gameplay, worse story, but still bigger budgets that they spend on marketing so clowns like you go and preorder it so they make their money before the game even releases.

indie devs out here with Tegrity and Spect

Dude, if you don't understand, then this is a rhetorical question that did not require an answer. It's really funny for me to see how you wrote your TLDR

Major publishers can't do this because they typically take on a much grander scope of gameplay, systems, and graphics that indie games take. It's not a fair comparison to be comparing a 2D game with gameplay and graphics from over 20 years ago and modern triple A games that utilize open-worlds, top of the line graphics, and mechanics that are usually simulating very complex stuff such projectile trajectory and physics.

You are basically saying "I have had the same bicycle for 20 years, and the only repairs I've had to do on it is replace the tires a few times. Why does my car that I have had for the same time period required massively more repairs?" well, cause a car has thousands of more moving parts and more points of failure than a bicycle. I wouldn't expect a car to be as stable as a bicycle, because more things can inevitably go wrong.

Having 2d graphics prob saves alot on time and tech errors.
