The RPG Files: You Should Check Out Ashen - The RPG Files - MMORPG.com
This Thursday’s Game Awards had more than a few surprises, one of which was that Epic’s developer-friendly game store opened up and had a few great games already available. Impulse game buy that I am, I snapped up both Supergiant’s Hades (because duh) and A44’s stylish but mysterious RPG, Ashen. Let me tell you, I’m glad I did.

Aloha Mr Hand !
I get the irritation, really I do. I have 820 games on Steam. But I have to bring up the Blizzard launcher whenever I want to play CoD, WoW, or Diablo. Origin if I want to play Battlefield. And now, Epic to play Ashen or that other game with llamas.
Yeah it sucks not having everything on 1 platform. But that can also be a good thing since it creates competition. It's also not "much" unlike having console exclusive games like RDR2 and God of War on PS4, and Sea of Thieves on Xbox/PC-via yet another launcher.
It's like the game was made for me. Sold!

Also Ashen looks like a cheap low-poly mobile game while I already have MHW, BDO, AC Odyssey, For Honor to delight my snob PC master race aesthetic sense.
Thank you for your time!
Its also deliciously ironic that all titles you mention to delight your snob PC blablabla are on console as well.
And thirdly, full retard isn’t the same as people not sharing your opinion. Calling that full retard might actually full retard in itself though.

Kyleran on yours sincerely
'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'
Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...
'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'
Gdemami absolutely not being an armchair developer
And the competition you speak of only works one way ,lining the pockets of huge company's with even higher gross profits then they already make. You think employee's of EA or Blizzard won't eat if they sell their games on Steam. O Boo Hoo Ubisoft made a Billion less cause i bought on Steam, cmon man. Exclusivity of a game on a companys launcher won't create competition or anything better for the consumer, Its a one sided deal that works in favor of the Huge studios.
Aloha Mr Hand !
Immediately the character animation/model looks terrible a complete fail.Every single model looks identical and runs like a peg leg.
So looking past the peg legs,it looks mildly ok,i definitely wouldn't go out of my way to buy this game though because remember that word TIME, i already have much better games to fill my time.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
"Available: TBD"
So it will be on Steam... at some point.
As for why it's not on steam yet, epic probably paid them to have exclusivity. It's the same principle of some console games being "exclusive" on one console only, then be available to all of them after a period of time.
