Good Morning CoinDroppers!

We're back and today is our last episode of the year. A nice number 120 to round off the end of 2025. Today we're NOT discussing the insane success of Expedition 33 because everyone else already has. Instead we're going to focus on a few games that we saw at the VGAs and talk about those.

Divinity

How could Larian possibly top Baldur's Gate 3? Well... like this. The trailer they dropped for their next game was in a single word fan-fucking-tastic. If you missed it make sure you don't watch it with children present because it's so dark Diablo would be impressed. There isn't a lot known at this time so Zach, Chris, but we brainstorm the setting, and timeline as Larian returns to their beloved franchise.

Star Wars Fate of the Old Republic

a new single player RPG from Casey Hudson original creator of Kotor as well as the Mass Effect trilogy. We're finally getting Kotor 3! Maybe. Eventually. Probably. I'm sure this project wont be canceled and passed off a bunch of times right? Should be fine.

Bradly the Badger

Fan of Conker's Bad Fur Day? Like video games in general? Then there's something for you in Bradly the Badger. More tongue in cheek than raunchy and crude comedy Bradly the Badger definitely takes inspiration from Conker and tones down the M for Most Kids a bit.

Quick Fire

• A new 40v40 mil sim shooter '83 comes to Early Access next year
• The VGAs impressions

Good Morning CoinDroppers!

Zach is back with us with some awesome news as we discuss (briefly) the new valve hardware, two RPGS, and the GOTY nominees so with out further delay let's get into the content!

Steam Machine

Moore's Law is Dead did a fantastic breakdown of this new machine with what I think is probably a pretty accurate estimate on what consumers can expect to pay for this. I won't go into too much detail here but If you want more depth on the gabecube check out his video.

Steam Frame

This kick ass new piece of kit has me very excited to get back into VR gaming. LinusTechTips got to go to valve and put his hands on this thing hand honestly if the price point is right I'll likely be picking one of these bad boys up day one.

FateKeeper

Mike and I discussed our first impressions of this ambitious new project from an indie team during it's debut at the THQ showcase earlier this year and now we have some gameplay. Needless to say I'm sold already. Seeing what a small team of talented individuals can do with the UE5 engine is breath taking and while this IS just a vertical slice I cant help but hope for a true spiritual successor to Dark Messiah.

Bloodlines 2 (not even worth linking...)

And now for CoinDrop's Biggest Disappointment of the Year award. Vampire the Masquerade Bloodline 2 sweeps this category with it's impressive failure. Falling short of every possible mark in the worst ways the ONLY thing that this game has to hang it's hat on is it's slightly above average voice actors. Honestly this game had so much promise and the desires of an entire fandom for it to be great. Unfortunately, This is a game that needs to just step into the light of the sun and dissipate into ashes.

MegaBonk and the GOTY awards

MegaBonk was initially nominated for best breakout indie game when it's mysterious developer specifically asked to be removed. Why you might ask? Well, apparently this isn't their first game. However it is the first game that vedinad is credited for. So did they shoot themselves in the foot?

QUICK FIRE NEWS

• DuskPunk First Impressions
• Capcom says RE Requiem wont suffer on PC like MH Wilds did. We're pressing X to doubt.
• Soulframe Preludes update 12 coming the 25 Nov
• Hellraiser Revival drops gameplay trailer Looks great
• Ashes of Creation coming to Steam Early Access next month!

Good Morning CoinDroppers!

We're back once again and joining me this episode is Chris. He also did all the editing for this one so if it looks and or sounds bad blame him. His words not mine. Today we're covering a surprising amount of horror games consider we already did our Halloween episode but that's just the way it goes some times.

Zeverland

First up is a brilliant upcoming survival game Chris and I have high hopes for. Though the title seems a bit weak the game looks amazing and they're launching an closed technical test on the 14th. This is an ambitious new project from first time devs and unlike The Day Before they actually seem interested in connecting with their community and hearing them out. If you wanna join their discord and stay up to date click the link below. and make sure to Wishlist the game on steam if it looks interesting to you. Tell them you heard about it on our show if you join the discord! https://discord.gg/sBNyGQaCS5

The Florist

What if a game gave you the classic Resident Evil 1-3 style but with vibrantly beautiful and deadly plant monsters. Well that's what you get with the deceivingly flowery naming of this game. The Florist is another upcoming indie game that looks to bring old school style RE gameplay to the modern age. Lets just hope they didn't carry over the awful tank controls and horrible aiming.

I Hate This Place

And to round off our horror game showcase, I Hate This Place is a comic book inspired horror survival game with an Isometric camera and hardcore rocker in this 80s setting cult horror game. Seems dope to me and I'm all for it.

Quick Fire News
