How did this game come out of nowhere with no hype and become a top seller?
>>
>400 usd on steam
Why?

I'll probably buy for cheap in a year. It looks decent but not amazing. It could be fun with the correct expectations.

Shit, duh.
>>
>>376794316
>no hype
They shilled the fuck out of it, dude. I saw it all over magazine covers and the like and you do see the daily shill thread on /v/, of which at least a 1/3rd are actual marketers.

The other 2/3s are falseflaggers and fanboys, as per usual.

Anyway it's not as hyper-fucking-derivative as Lords of the Fallen was and getting to the Steam Top Sellers list doesn't take an awful lot of work, so it was bound to hit it. Question is, can it keep its place at the top long enough?

>>376794316

Steamfags will buy literal dogshit if it's on sale, that's why every pre-order on steam always has a price cut on it to encourage pre-orders
>>
>>376794937
Well, your loss. I don't mind companies selling shit to me, because it's not like I'm gonna buy it unless I want it.

The west has a weird disgust against being sold for a culture seeped in consumerism. They can't make you want something.

Wait a second.
This is hardly a top seller by anyone's standards, it's been out for pre ordering for 2 months already.
Now compare it to an actual top seller like Vanquish, which has been out for 2 DAYS and already has 4 times more owner's than The Surge.

With this in mind, OP post comes across as a shill.
>>
>>376795423
It is in the top seller list, and steam claims it is a top seller.
I have never heard of it before so I thought devs can work with to get their game pushed to top seller list for publicity because random games get to top seller list all the time
>>
>>376794316
I'm pretty sure it aint as bad as you make it up to be. Probably a 8/10 by modern standards
>>
>>376795423
You really only have to make a couple hundred sales to make Top Sellers. The Steam storefront is sad.
>>
>>376795645
>>376795794

My mistake, it was there in the top sellers, just not on the 'front page' of the lists I was looking at.
It has very little appeal to me personally, guess other people see something in it.

>>376795423
Steamspy doesn't become accurate for at least two weeks.
>>
Streamers have been shilling this game, I just don't get the hype
It looks like an early access game

Maybe it's because it's a soulslike but the combat in this game doesn't even look at good as the souls games and I wouldn't even consider souls combat to be anything more the mid tier

I don't hate it I just don't think it looks like a $50 game

It's okay to not follow gaming news. I don't follow it, either. It's also fine to live under a rock, I'm not judging. But WHY would you come out from under your rock and assume everyone is as oblivious and disconnected as you? That's just fucking stupid.

Almost every AA-AAA becomes a top seller, a fucking Neptunia was a top seller. There are more preorders on this bitch than your average game. I mean, everyone already has CSGO, yet it's in perpetual global top 10 all the time. The only times a new AA-AAA game is not in top sellers is when there's a sale on a huge game from before.

It's a graphically focused third-person brawler with crafting mechanics. That is perhaps some of the biggest buzzwords for a console game to currently have. The only thing it's missing is online squad-based multiplayer, and I'm sure that's just because I didn't look the game over too closely.

I like Souls series, I liked Lords of Fallen and i like post-apocaliptic near future setting. Plus my homebro's make it.
So it's a must for me. Just check out any of the previews, people say its solid as fuck. Main difference between this and Souls is that its not about Bosses, every single shit is tough as fuck.

Bunch of streamers got to play this early because of course they did. It looks like the devs learned fucking nothing from Lords of the Fallen and just transposed their weird as fuck too heavy but floaty as fuck non-responsive combat into the future.

All of the tech in the environment looks far more advanced than the hideous exo-suits your forced into using. Everything looks stupid, theres no music.

>They can't make you want something
That's pretty much the goal of marketing, and they achieve it regularly. Congitive ease works. I get your point in a sense, because you're not going to buy something you have no interest in. But the purpose of advertisements is to make you interested in it. The vehement opposition to marketing is understandable because it benefits from the weaker willed. It's not a personal problem, but it effects the industry.

>>
>>376802916
>any /an/ or /sci/ fag here know where there's not a single creature with both an endo and exo skeleton?
It's a pointless waste of resources. You're spending energy building two skeletons when, if either one of them ends up broken, you're likely to just end up dead. It is far better for a creature to develop something which will give them an advantage, rather than doubling-down on something designed to keep their muscles in place.

And speaking of that, it's the other reason you don't see anything with both an endo- and exo-skeleton. Both serve the same purpose: to give a frame for the body to hang itself onto. (Not to resist attacks, necessarily.) Nothing is going to develop a method to keep their guts aligned when they currently have one which works well.

That said, look at the pangolin if you want an animal with really tough body armor.

I played it for review and I really like it.

The only thing that kinda grated on me after 19hrs of play as that the environments are very same-y.

Although this can lead to some great level design (the whole 'world' is one big industrial factory that loops back on itself tons of times), it doesn't really feel like you're going anyway.

Feel like they could've diversified it some more.
>>
>>376804620
Yeah it seems they got like 3 or 4 previs images and EVERYTHING was built off that and they were too afraid to bring in new images or types of aesthetics, worried it'll fuck with the original scheme.

Which is boring on every level. Still, it looks like a B+ game, only thing that really looks like it'd annoy me is the whole execution system trivializing fights.
