Deals Tim Sweeney Presents: the ePiC GAMING SHOW 2020, a T-Swee Joint

[lashman]

woohoo

 

[lazerfox]

pretty sure Yakuza collection is in the end. they showed a tweet at the bottom asking for it

 

[Dandy]

Dontnod!!

 

[C-Dub]

This is EGS. Don't get excited.

 

[Dandy]

What the fuck

 

[C-Dub]

Cedric Biscay got his claws on it, and he sells everything he touches to Epic. cough Shenmue cough

 

[Dandy]

Oh, I knew that.

 

[Dandy]

Must've blocked it out of my mind.

 

[Swenhir]

I didn't know that guy, how does he even get involved in this kind of stuff. Is it a publisher?

 

[C-Dub]

He's wealthy, loves games and lives in Monaco.

 

[C-Dub]

So Epic's probably writing cheques tax-free...

 

[Swenhir]

It boggles my mind, he seems like an outsider to both companies

 

[C-Dub]

Shibuya Productions runs an anime expo in Monaco and does some behind the scenes business to bring stuff to the West.

 

[C-Dub]

He's been dabbling in games recently. All there's to say, realy.

 

[Swenhir]

It's a shame :/

 

[Mivey]

So, testing the chat

 

[Alextended]

Unless I'm mistaken there's lots of Steam stuff so far, no?

 

[lashman]

honestly - we're doing pretty good with egs shit so far ... only like 2 indie games we haven't known about so far ... everything else is stuff we already knew was egsclusive

 

[Mivey]

Wow, it seems to work!

 

[C-Dub]

It'll be on Steam after 12 months. I'm not too bothered.

 

[Alextended]

I only just started checking the uploaded videos.

 

[Swenhir]

Agreed, doing pretty good for EGS, nothing major

 

[lashman]

yup

 

[Alextended]

Has there been anything other than Project Wingman as VR compatible? That's the only one I'm seeing (it's Ace Combat style game from an indie, looks great).

 

[Swenhir]

Oh, this is nice

 

[lashman]

Alextended
don't think so

 

[C-Dub]

VR has been lacking. I reckon the UploadVR show got everything.

 

[C-Dub]

People only bitch in the comments if it's a VR game.

 

[lashman]

yeah, pretty much

 

[Mivey]

really thinking about getting a Index myself

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

I wonder how long Epic is going to continue sponsoring the PC Gaming show. It doesn't really seem worth it if they aren't going to reveal anything that wasn't known before.

 

[Mivey]

Last I checked it was backordered until like July or something

 

[Mivey]

8 weeks or something

 

[lashman]

crimsonheadGCN hope
fully this was the last time (but i'm not holding my breath)

 

[lazerfox]

I'm still hoping we'll get an update on Sable. Haven't had any news about it for a while.

 

[fantomena]

My hope for Yakuza is slim. So I guess also Bloodborne is in august since there is a Sony event thing then?

 

[Swenhir]

Horizon as well, in all likelihood

 

[Swenhir]

Huh

 

[lashman]

probably, yeah

 

[lashman]

damn, that looks cool

 

[lashman]

oh, it's egsclusive ... nevermind then

 

[Swenhir]

And Epic

 

[fantomena]

noooooooooo

 

[EdwardTivrusky]

Hopefully only timed exclusive
.

 

[Swenhir]

Eh, it was pretty but not a thing I'd feel overly hyped for. And it's HG.

 

[C-Dub]

I had a feeling Epic would snap this one up.

 

[C-Dub]

It has Epic Bait written all over it.

 

[Swenhir]

That seems very Tarkov

 

[Pommes]

The Epic Count seems relatively high on this show.

 

[C-Dub]

mostly already announced games as EGS exclusives
