I regret to inform you that Dead Weight has completely ruined my Steam library. Why would I play anything else? Why would I want to? Every other game is just "not Dead Weight."
>Flying steampunk pirate ship? CHECK!
>Tiny turn-based battles where every move matters? CHECK!
>Roguelite progression that keeps pulling you back in? CHECK!
>Exploring floating islands while hunting eldritch Ancient Gods? CHECK!
>Pixel art that makes your GPU feel appreciated instead of abused? CHECK!

The gameplay loop is pure concentrated dopamine. Every run turns into "I'll just clear one more island," and suddenly it's 2:47 AM, your coffee is cold, and you've developed an emotional attachment to a goblin you hired 40 minutes ago. The combat somehow manages to be tactical without feeling like you're filing taxes. Positioning matters. Builds matter. Your crew matters. Every piece of loot has you immediately theorycrafting your next run. And don't even get me started on the atmosphere. Whoever decided to combine flying pirate ships, steampunk, ancient cosmic horrors, and chunky pixel art deserves a standing ovation and probably tax exemptions. I haven't been this excited about an indie game in ages. The devs clearly poured years of love into this thing, and it shows in every system. It's the kind of game where you accidentally tell your friends, No seriously, just play it, every five minutes.

Dead Weight isn't just peak.
It's the entire mountain.

10/10.
11/10 if your airship explodes.
15/10 if the Ancient Gods personally ruin your day.
100/10 if you immediately queue another run afterward anyway.

I don't make the rules. I just obey them. Now if you'll excuse me, I have important pirate business to attend to.

This is clearly a marketing post and even worse it was obviously written by AI or even worse someone ironically mimicking AI. I will never buy your game based on this alone.
>>
It's not my fucking game you cocksucker! Barely anybody knows about this and it's a great game that is getting massive accolades! People Fucking complain we don't have any new good Tactical RPGs coming out and here one does, but you are acting like a Fucking Trick Ass Mark! Yes, you are a Fucking Mark!
>>
this is just sad
>>
>>4021353
Ok Asshole, I'll straighten you out. Where the Fuck are you? Why do you Fucking hate games? Is it that some girl somewhere won't Fuck you, and this is how you're going to act now? This is how you're going to behave?
>>
What do you get out of this? If it's an ad it's a shit one, if it's not an ad it's just sad.
>>
the most AI post I've ever seen

>>4021435
Why do you post here if you dont want to actually talk about finding and playing good games? Are you Cats Fucking trolling? Which AAA do you Fucking work for?
>>
>>4021346
Why don't you just market it naturally instead of typing all of this?
No insult, but I have checked this game. It is very deliberate on the marketing pictures.

Also while the environments look really nice (might be metal slug tactics level), those sprites look very generic.
Also what's the point of the fighting on top of an airship when the game board is just a flat surface?
>>
last time we had a shill this bad it was the false skies dev (who calmed down the day later and has been chill since so no bully)
>>
>>4021483
Im not the Fucking Dev you Cocksucker! Why would they post about the game on this Fucking forum that barely anybody reads? I am NOT a shill!
>>
>>4021506
Why don't you check the rest of my post first?
Btw who is even accusing you being the dev when every fan markets the game that they like.
>>
>>4021348
OP shilled this on /vst/ too
>>
>>4021544
This was a lie when you wrote it!

I actually had this in my wishlist before seeing this thread.
Sad. Love me airships.

Dodged a bullet here. There are plenty of pixel trpg coming, fuck that and fuck op.

>last time we had a shill this bad it was the false skies dev
Missed that but Peripeteia was way worse. Maybe it was on /v/ though.
Also, digits status: checked.
>>
>indie devs now specifically looking out for the most retarded jeets of dalit caste in existence to shill their games, instead of trying it themselves with a chance of all of this looking at least somewhat natural.
I'm not really planned before this, but now i'm totally not playing your game.

you almost sold me on it. one question before cealing the deal. Is it Unity?
>>
The dev for this is Ruassin!

Most uninspired game i've seen in a while.

>>4021693
You dint scour for jew games often then. It's actually pretty bleak out there. This at least doesn't look completely shit, it's still very bad though. Then again mercaneries trpg series exist and it's basically bland, the game.

>>4021726
Mercenaries are worse
But this game's aggressive buzzwordy marketing along with the level design is disgusting.
I will pir8 it and give it a try sometime just out of curiosity, but the amount of skeptical and disappointed reviews on steam already speaks volumes
>>
>>4021488
>random SaGa narcissist brings up the False Skies dev any chance he gets for over 3 years now
Disgusting behavior.
>>
>>4021743
I forgive you anon, your game is fine
