I just did a search and I got no results for a game I'm looking forward to called Ooblets.

It's basically Harvest Moon meets Pokemon with a ton of cute added. I'm super in for it.

Another game that gets a little love and is not talked up often is Cross-Code which you can play right now through your web browser. It's a pseudo MMO in the vein of .hack or Sword Art Online (though it plays conceptually closer to Zelda) and is my game of the whenever it comes out. I logged like 20+ hours in the game before it was 50% complete.

Literally literally means figuratively now.

I'm pretty excited about Conquest of the Crystal Palace. It came out on the NES like 27 years ago, but I just found my copy when I was sorting through stuff in the basement.

The only way someone can be *literally* the only one excited about a game is if they're making one themselves and they haven't told anyone else.

Edit to add a second vote for Knack 2.

Well now I'm excited about Ooblets.

There's not much hype for Blue Reflection, Musou Stars, Ever Oasis, or Mario Sports Superstars.

I'd probably say Bleed 2 is the one I've heard no one else get excited for.

Or YIIK.

I mean, I'm probably the only person eagerly awaiting the newest version of Terraria for consoles (version 1.3, due out Q2 2017).

"Literally" the only one excited about? Like, as in, not even any of the devs are excited?

Language changes.

I so hate this argument, though I suspect you're being tongue in cheek. Language evolves, yes, but this is a case of people using a word as its own antonym. That's confusing as fuck and should be pushed back against.

Thank you! *adds to wishlist*

On the side, I wish that Steam had like a news feed that was just all the updates from games you own. Like, I own Bleed but since I don't play it super often I totally missed the sequel annouce.

That new Psychonauts VR game that's supposed to come out this year. I'm the only one I know that's excited for it.

I also am super pumped for CrossCode ::fist bump:: I own it and I'm trying so hard to not just play through it all. If you haven't played it I can tell you that I absolutely love it. I really miss the days of SNES Secret of Mana and Secret of Evermore (Screw you haters, I loved it).

I'll raise you Examina and Chasm.

Examina

It is a dungeon crawler at the moment with an emphasis on weight and physics. This isn't Diablo where you click click click, you have to use your mouse for actual motion and momentum. You can even trip on stuff (Watch the first gif).

Lastly, God Of War(Cheating, I know the hype is real). I played this over a year ago as I have a personal friend that works for the Studio. I had to sign an assload of paperwork, but what I can tell you is that it is by far my most anticipated game. I love SoulsBorne and it was absolutely scratching that itch. I need it in an IV drip now.

Both games look awesome.

Do you know if they'll have a console release?

Ooblets is PC with hopes for console, CrossCode is on Steam, but it had Wii U as stretch goal for it's indiegogo (which prolly means Switch)

That looks
  1. like a hilariously flawed design
  2. like a ton of fun

This was what I was going to post so...guess that's two people excited for this game.

The reason I'm not hype is because I just wanted Cyber Sleuth 2.

CrossCode. I have it on my account, just waiting for it to get out of early access to get through it.

Ooblets was one of the first games I thought of when I saw the thread title.

Rakuen. To the Moon was a huge success (over 1 million owners on SteamSpy) so you'd think that a similar game from Laura Shigihara would get more hype than it's getting.

Defender's Quest 2. Loved the first game and according to the dev, it's sold well over time, but I haven't seen much excitement for the sequel, despite looking like it's full of big improvements.
