Just heard this existed. Looking forward to it since it's been what, 8 years since the last Advance Wars title was released?

For PC, Switch and PS4.

I guess you're okay with the devs fucking everyone over (if you're aware of it)? The whole thing makes Mighty Number 9 look good.

This is part of it, though may or may not be real. Even if it isn't, Project Phoenix is a wreck.

Way back in 2013, a Japanese dev raised over $1mil with the Kickstarter goal being $100k. Promised to be a wonderful blend of AAA Japanese and Western talent, including Nobuo Uematsu, with an estimated release of mid-2015. That year, they said it was nowhere close to being finished and promised a 2018 date. Released a short 10 minute demo in 2014 and since then nothing else but some music and art. Somehow they managed to squander the funds they received from Kickstarter and announced that they'd stop putting finances into it and instead put it into a small game that you now know is Tiny Metal, and that if THAT game is a financial success, they'll return to Project Phoenix. Meanwhile, they're refusing to do refunds.

Am I understanding that they were supposed to make some grand scale AAA like JRPG but instead made an indie version of Advance Wars?

Cause that's unfortunate. This game looks really fun but it wasn't what was promised to those who kickstarted it.

The funniest thing about this game, is that the publisher is Sony.

Isn't there a medieval Advance Wars clone also in the works?

Looks like one of those games that a PS2 or semi-modern phone should be able to run with minimal stress, but has ridiculous minimum specs on PC for no good reason.

Same. I hope Wargroove has workshop support when it's released for steam.

Looks interesting but also still annoyed about the Project Phoenix stuff and curious how that will pan out. I've been craving a new Advance Wars style game for a long time so this already has my interest.

I'm pretty sure any junk PC from 1999 can play this game.

I think it's a mix of things: I prefer physical copies of things I buy as they are "mine" and also vastly more portable if I want to take it somewhere, also resellable if necessary. Possibly a carryover from my youth (I've been gaming on consoles since I was like 4, just the way I do it). Already have my setup the way I like it (a shitty reason, as I could easily rearrange things and game on PC). KBM is nice sometimes, but I like the feel of a controller (again, easily corrected with a purchase of another controller/adapter).

Just set in my ways I guess.

Also am a victim of that bullshit trophy/achievement shit and I get a sense of... I guess for lack of a better word, "purpose", for completing a list of tasks. And as I have my task list/meaningless reward system attached to PSN (was Xbox before with 360 but I was able to cut the cord from that), I'd rather play a game within that system.

I realize it's irrational and meaningless, but here we are.
