Guitar Hero (and Rock Band) might be, for me, the most replayable game(s) of all-time. I miss it terribly. I would buy it and play the hell out of it if they made a new one. I know there’s the Clone Hero thing, but don’t know much about it and don’t have access to a guitar controller (I currently live in Cambodia).
So why did it die? People just got tired of it? Did they get too greedy with the business model? I played up through World Tour (I think) but not 5 or Live or whatever other ones were released after.
This is a game that I would LOVE to see make a comeback with a fresh coat of paint and some new features. It seems Activision* is done with it. Any chance they’d sell the rights or bring it back from the dead?
Edit: accidentally wrote Ubisoft instead of Activision.
Hei all
Happy new year!
We have been working on Hermit for a while now, and we finally have a trailer!

The game is in its very early stage, we are working quite slowly as we do this in our free time, but would love some feedback on first impressions 😁
Description:
Hermit: an Underwater Tale is a fast paced action game with arcade elements. You play as a hermit crab who faces waves of creeps and dangerous sea creatures. In order to protect yourself and defeat your enemies, you will use a wide variety of empty shells as weapons. Each shell comes with a specific set of moves and attacks and will eventually break after use. Without any shell, the hermit is fully exposed and any damage he receives will be lethal. The game features a simple core mechanic paired with a high and ever increasing difficulty over multiple levels. In order to beat the game, you will have to combine skill, real-time resources management, smart item purchases, …
Tales of Yore is a free online multiplayer RPG with oodles of items, quests and monsters to discover. It’s all about finding and beating everything in the game. The game is in active development and has been for around 7 months. The world currently contains around 20 hours of gameplay, 100+ NPCs, 100k tiles to explore and many random story lines along the way.
You can play the game either on mobile, web or desktop application from the website at https://talesofyore.com There are also mobile apps available for Android and Apple.
It’s intended to be a fully casual experience with a small positive community building around the game , Yore is becoming a friendly place to play. The game is a follow up to a game I made 10 years ago, Legends of Yore and offers the same simple RPG mechanics with light hearted humour and rich background stories but this time you can play together.

Key intentions of the game’s …
I have a bad habit of filtering and buying games that are only 80% or better on steam. Occasionally I take a shot at some much lower though (50%-75%) and I’ve found some gems.
​
What are your favorites of 2021 that had a rating of less than 70% on steam that you absolutely love and still play? Hoping that I (and others) will find some new games to play that we wouldn’t normally look at it!
I’m quite new to PC gaming and I’ve only purchased a few games from Steam at the moment but I’ve been interested in GOG’s philosophy and I was wondering if there are general differences on buying drm-free games from one place vs the other. For example, I got Trails in the Sky FC and SC and The Witcher 3 on Steam which are drm-free on both places but I don’t know what would be the pros/cons of buying them from either Steam or GOG.
