It’s insane how much time is going on between each release.

I expected about 3 years - thats common for a full-length AAA game nowadays. They also had to transition from PS4 to PS5 which slowed development at first. I think the gap between Part 2 and 3 will be 2 years or less.

It feels like 5 years and COD/NHL/FIFA/Madden/Assassins Creed has made things seem to get developed faster
 


It's time

Picked up Inscryption from the Steam sale. Roguelike, deckbuilder, horror, escape room.

Played a few hours last night and... yeah, it's quite an experience.

My suggestion if you plan on picking it up is to read little to nothing about it.

It has an interesting mix of elements. Super creepy vibe! The combat mechanics are dark and clever.

I finally got around to playing the demo (which ends when you beat the prospector), and you sure weren't lying. I don't think it's quite like anything else I've ever played. I think I'm gonna pick it up.

Put overall like $100 into it. Even have one of the metal cards that they gave out when hitting a certain rank for backers and those that have given extras. Only own one ship, but it has a lifetime insurance.

Wait, what? You have virtual insurance for a virtual spaceship?

Yeah it was part of the backer stuff a long time ago.

Basically, ships can have limited insurance, even to the point of that if it's blown up, you lose it for good, if you don't have insurance. Yeah, wild shit lol.

Do ships cost real money? Insurance?

Some people have paid $3000+ for full ships. As in real f***ing money.

I know some whales in Diablo immortal are already 50k in the hole. Insanely stupid.
3k for an in game ship that can be permanently destroyed is equally as dumb.

I believe if you paid that much, you automatically get the full unlimited insurance. I believe any ship you buy with real money comes with that.

However, in-game purchased ships don't come with the same insurance.
