Players will be wary of what Playstation PC LLC being the publisher means in the future; keep that in mind future game devs.

All 6 (10) games for 60$ on pc even with the minimal upscaling touch-ups they've put in is definitely worth it. Haven't tried the online modes yet, but really excited for that. If you're just looking for one or two games, I'd wait a while for a sale.

My only complaint is that the game is locked to the GBA's 4:3 aspect ratio.

Game seems to be working fine for me (win 10, 1060 laptop at 1080, will try it on my 4k monitor later). No crashes, lag, or bugs.

This is the first game I played on ps+, years ago. I decided + was worth it based on that. I would have never considered getting it back then but will gladly spend 20 on it now. Great game, great controls and mechanics. It's harder than I remember.

Spiral Knights was a GREAT game.

Summary in one sentence: Spiral Knights is not new user friendly and adds next to nothing to keep its veteran players interested.

I loved the music, the art style, and the MMO element combined with the Zelda like combat. Imagine Four Swords with online multiplayer and (in the beginning) lots of players.

Sadly the game itself has been stagnant while the developers copy paste stuff to make a quick buck.

Updates just make getting to the end game take longer and longer unless you empty your pockets. But at the same time, once you get there, there's almost nothing to do. New end game content hasn't been added since the "hard more" Shadow Lairs fights added three years ago. Combat is skill based (it's quite obvious who bought their equipment and who got it before they made it painful to try to get to end game without coughing up dough) but acquiring and upgrading equipment is not-so-micro-microtransaction based.

Their cash currency for example will allow you to purchase most end game equipment without any effort on your part. Sometimes even before the previous promotion is over, they release new cosmetic items, which are randomly acquired by opening a item box purchased for $5 each. To make things worse, these "new" cosmetic items are more often than not, the exact same items already available, simply recolored. The update released recently for gunners is the first in more than a year that adds stat-giving equipment to the game, whereas there have been at least one cosmetic moneygrab each month in this time. Another thing worth mentioning is that this recent update added three, just three, new sets of armor. Quite a dissappointment.

Edit: SK can however be used to get games for free on steam. The currency bought using real money can be traded, and if you are smart with grinding or watch the player market, you can easily make enough to pay for some games, and there are people willing to trade. Why? I don't know. But they exist.

Didn't see all the negative feedback till after I got the game and I was a little worried. There is no tutorial or good explanation of all the mechanics but after a round or two you get the hang of it. Controls are smooth and graphics are great.

I got the Digital Deluxe Commander Bundle but to be honest I'm not sure what the different commanders do, or if it's just asthetic. I got the bundle for 10 on sale, The digital deluxe part is meh. Definitely wouldn't spend 50. I'd pick up another for a friend to play with me if it went on sale for 60% or more off again.

Turn based Dark Souls. Got this game in a humble bundle but it's definitely worth at least 3.50. Great bgm.
