Steam Deck go BRRRRRRRRR

 

[Punished Miku]

FUCKING FINALLY!

FUCK YOU EPIC


Steam Deck go BRRRRRRRRR

Now you have to actually play these.

 

[feynoob]

Tookyou long enough you cowards.

 

[Pejo]

Not into celebrating because screw S-E and Epic for cockblocking us for years, but I will still buy the games because I enjoy them.

Hope KH4 is day and date on Steam.

 

[Draugoth]

FUCK YES, FUCK YOU EPIC

 

[GHG]

Fucking finally. My patience paid off.

The earlier entries in the series are perfect for the deck.

 

[LordCBH]

Now you have to actually play these.

Don’t make me get my replica keyblades out, sir and/or madam!

 

[Punished Miku]

Don’t make me get my replica keyblades out, sir and/or madam!

I like a few of the games. Just joking lol.

 

[jshackles]

I have the 1.5 and 2.5 set on Epic, but will double dip and buy them all on Steam

 

[LordCBH]

I like a few of the games. Just joking lol.

One like and I’ll get a keyblade out

 

[Mister Wolf]

You aren't missing much. Play the first and ignore the rest like the Matrix movies.

 

[LordCBH]

One like and I’ll get a keyblade out

Say no more fam(s)

 

[pennythoughts]

Would love to play through the series but not for whatever price they'll launch at. Winter sale maybe?

 

[MayauMiao]

Can't wait for this legendary post:

Square just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase FFXIII Kingdom Hearts for either system, nor will they purchase any of Square's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.
Square, publicly apologize and cancel FFXIII Kingdom Hearts for 360 PC or you can kiss your business goodbye.

 

[adamsapple]

Tookyou long enough you cowards.

Aggressive multi-platform push, baby.

 

[Kenpachii]

If the price is 30 bucks for psp/ps2 versions of the game i will get it

 

[bender]

Overall game quality on Steam just got worse.

 

[proandrad]

Good buying 3rd party exclusives is crony capitalism and needs to stop. Make a better product than steam if you want people to switch.

 

[Superkid93]

Can't wait for this legendary post:

wtf is this?? hahaha

 

[Fake]

Enjoy. Birth by Sleep is my favorite.

 

[ArtHands]

ngl i was going to buy this on PS5 later this year, but now that it is coming to steam i can change my plan now

 

[Synless]

Birth by Sleep is god tier for this series, followed by KH2:FM.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Birth by Sleep is god tier for this series, followed by KH2:FM.

The only good Kingdom Hearts is none of them

 

[NuclearDiarrhea]

This is proof that Steam needs better quality control and higher standards. They just allow anything on their store these days.

 

[GHG]

Overall game quality on Steam just got worse.

 

[bender]

 

[Arsic]

This is perfect for steam deck.

Could finally play BBS this way.

 

[64bitmodels]

you're the last person I'd even expect to like Kingdom hearts of all games


Bender is what happens when you choose being a hater as your profession

 

[ClosBSAS]

so it begins....the revolution...SE decided it wanted the pc market money. good for them.

 

[Elbereth]

 

[Kataploom]

Oh, finally coming to PC, this is a good chance to try this franchise... Well, almost, it's uncomfortable valley of anime characters speaking English or Disney characters speaking Japanese (pick your poison)

 

[Pasta la Vista]

SE was doing you guys a favor by making it an Epic store exclusive you fools. Now the series will actually sell again AND get new fans.

 

[Bonfires Down]

RIP whoever bought the games on the recent sale. Actually the timing of this announcement seems specifically intended to troll them.

 

[yet_another_alt]

Overall game quality on Steam just got worse.

Disney owns Futurama so in KH4...

 

[Fahdis]

Lmao, I remember playing KH for the first time with my wife because she's a huge Disney fan. She always wanted to play it her whole life and was determined to finish it.

By the end of the first game, she was so demotivated and was like, why did I waste my time obsessing over this convoluted piece of shit for years. Worst. Game. Ever.

She never touched the rest In the spirit of this, I'm gonna do what any Steam person does. Buy it at a cheap price digitally and never touch it again.

 

[Dazraell]

Finally. I will definitely buy this

 

[daninthemix]

 

[Hudo]

Weird. I wonder if the contracts Square had with Epic were just timed or if Square bought themselves free, so to speak.

 

[GymWolf]

Finally pc players can enjoy one of the greatest story in videogame history

 

[The Cockatrice]

You'd have to pay me to play this insanity.

 

[RavenSan]

yeah sure, I'll buy em a third time

 

[Midn1ght]

Weird. I wonder if the contracts Square had with Epic were just timed or if Square bought themselves free, so to speak.

It's Square Enix, they probably forgot to release it on Steam when the 1 year exclusivity ended.

 

[CherryFalls]

I will now buy your game.

 

[SHA]

 

[Holammer]

I'm not going to reward SE for keeping it EGS exclusive for three years (especially if they release it full price), but I'm going to laugh my ass off if it comes a big seller.

 

[squarealex]

 

[CherryFalls]

This... doesn't work at all. Steam and epic aren't hardware platforms, both are available on PC. Avoiding epic is a personal choice, not a restriction.(Playstation and Xbox software is also available on PC, so)

Nice try though.

Spoiler

It actually wasn't a nice try.

 

[IDKFA]

I've never played the series, but I've heard it has the deepest and most complex story in gaming and possibly all of fiction.

A friend compared it to Dostoevsky. If it really is that deep then I really should look into giving this series a go.

 

[AV]

Finally, I can avoid playing it on my preferred platform.
