Hopefully we don't get a port like Deadly Premonition.

So what was the consensus on controls. Kinect or controller better?

Kinect was fucking awful for this game if you have anyone else (even a dog) in the room. It kept picking them up and messing up my actions.

Mouse controls should be perfect for this. But it played just fine with a controller.

 

[Alo81]

Both are awful. Get used to every single movement you make draining stamina. The game was interesting but the controls and how the game operates are just terrible.

Well, thankfully, being on PC you'll be able to lock stamina to max with Cheat Engine!

 

[AppleMIX]

Will purchase. Lets make it a top seller GAF.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Fucking awesome. Thank you for bringing it to the PC!

 

[Noobcraft]

Good for Swery and PC owners. Hopefully the combined sales are good enough to warrant more episodes.

 

[sector4]

Please buy it everyone! If I had a PC I'd double dip... I need more episodes

 

[KTallguy]

Glad.

 

[GoodMorningPluto]

Great news! Day 1.

Yeah, I'd rather not have another broken mess.

 

[Nillansan]

Day zero. I recently 100 percented Deadly Premonition on Steam and now I am craving even more of that Swery flavoured gaming goodness.

 

[paperspace]

Fantastic!

 

[Ricitor]

My GOTY 2014, how can I not double dip!

 

[Spaghetti]

i can dig it

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Man, this was the only game I had for Xbone, and I haven't even played it yet... and I guess now I'll just play it on PC.


Kind of feels charitable to buy Swery's game twice.

 

[CloudWolf]

I will buy this.

 

[Steel]

I heard the game flopped on Xbox One, so that's good news that it's being given another chance. I'd pick it up.

 

[Steverulez]

re: Sony platforms - If my read on things is right (e.g. don't quote me on this) it's not so much about who pisses who off as it is Access Games would pretty much have to buy the rights to the IP from Microsoft so they can do whatever they want with it.

I don't think that'd be cheap. I'd rather that budget went into more episodes. Can't win em all.

I'm pretty sure access own it. But ms funded it and would have to give their permission for it to happen which I doubt they will.

Like Alan wake, I suspect this is happening because ms said they could do it, which unless they terminate their publishing relationship and say access can do what they want they won't be releasing it on Playstation.

 

[SlipperyMoose]

I loved the idea of a different game but when I played it I just could not enjoy the gameplay. It's a shame too because the world and cutscenes are amusing.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Great news. SWERY's games are one of a kind.

Hopefully the port isn't horrible.

 

[SerTapTap]

Now watch the port be done by High Voltage

Oh god no. Didn't they already show a mouse-based version earlier? Might be in house or something? Did the Deadly Premonition port get fixed by the Director's Cut or whatever?

 

[Sword Familiar]

After being held hostage on the XBone this is definitely what the game needs. Will probably buy.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I think this game could have done fine on the Xbox had the Spencer regime not seen fit to throw it out randomly like it was garbage with no advertising or support.

But they didn't, and it didn't do well, so I hope it finds success on PC.

 

[Xpliskin]

Yes, yes.

Spoiler

after I finish deadly premonition

Iirc swery said something about wanting to launch it apple style I think.

Held hostage… by the people who make the game happen in the first place by funding it? Strange definition of held hostage.

 

[Reedirect]

Great news. Hopefully more people will get to play this wonderful set-up for a sadly incomplete story.

 

[Sword Familiar]

Held hostage… by the people who make the game happen in the first place by funding it? Strange definition of held hostage.

I meant it's a game that is too niche to be successful on any one platform. It needs all the exposure it can get.

You could say it was born in captivity, I guess.

 

[Welfare]

Obama must want to play more D4 episodes.

#ThanksObama

 

[Rockk]

plz announce new episodes at E3.

 

[Parsnip]

Lets hope the port is decent. Word from the build they had at PAX(?) was that it seemed good.
It's UE4 after all.
Or UE3? Either way.

 

[MillionStabs]

Day fuckin 1

So excited for this, maybe they'll finally get to release the second episode now

 

[threelights]

OMG, it's real!

God, I hope this means we have another chance at getting the next episodes too.

Day 0 for me.

 

[Mufausa The 3rd]

If I recall, it is Unreal Engine 4

 

[Steverulez]

Its Unreal Engine 3

 

[LiK]

Day zero. I recently 100 percented Deadly Premonition on Steam and now I am craving even more of that Swery flavoured gaming goodness.

if you thought DP was weird, you ain't seen nothing yet.

 

[tsab]

YES, I am in. I still haven't managed to finish Deadly Premonition though

Spoiler

PC version problems

and I don't want to touch my PS3 copy because of framerate.


Let's hope they will handle the port better

 

[Malitik Sabu]

Kinect adapter for PC required. Only on Windows Store.

 

[MillionStabs]

Silent Hills had to die so that D4 could live.


Please don't be as bad a port as the DP one

 

[OrbitalBeard]

After being held hostage on the XBone this is definitely what the game needs. Will probably buy.

lol

MS funded the game.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

interesting, i might pick this up

 

[Nillansan]

Did the Deadly Premonition port get fixed by the Director's Cut or whatever?

I didn't experience any of the major problems that have been reported. I managed to 100% the Steam version of the game without any significant hurdles.

 

[Zomba13]

Hope it does well enough to get us an ending. D4 was soooo crazy and we need that D.

 

[Orayn]

Now is a good time to repost this image that got several dozen favs and retweets when he first hinted at a PC version.

 

[Sword Familiar]

lol

MS funded the game.

Yes? And it obviously wasn't enough to keep it on one platform.

 

[Orniletter]

I hope my Laptop can run it with it's 850m.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Good things come to those who wait has been the theme for games lately. Grats to the people that were interested, I know there was a movement on gaf to try to get this game more sales, this should help.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I'll buy it if the port isn't garbage this time.

 

[Gbraga]

Just light the Durante signal already.

 

[KiDdYoNe]

Hopefully it gets released on Steam, makes some money, and then maybe Season 2 will be released!

Only on PC, lol.

Great news!

 

[monochr0m3]

Whoah, awesome!!

Thanks Obama!
