Blood: Fresh Supply is getting a physical collector's edition. "I sleep... again..."

Long story short is that Limited Run games is releasing a physical collectors version of Blood: Fresh Supply.

Number of downloads: 36
At 150 freedom bucks, this release comes with a pc case, stickers, a keychain, some art and a toy figure of Caleb. Suffice to say, the internet has been going nuts about it and Atari has already started shilling the game as well.
Even if Blood: Fresh Supply was a buggy mess that still hasn't been completely fixed to this day.
Thought's on this? Personally I can't believe people will actually buy an incomplete product and enable Atari's shitty business practices even more.

I think the other stuff included is pretty good though, it's just not worth that price in my opinion. To me, it would've made more sense to package the DOS games on disc or just put the files needed to run via a sourceport onto the USB. Nobody is playing via Fresh Supply if they're a die-hard enough fan to buy this, they're going to use one of the source ports available now instead.

This is exactly the sentiment that created the loot box mess we have now.
Sadly mouth breathers will buy anything sporting a logo they like.

Feel a little disagreed the first line but I don't know how to explain my shit better...I just feel if loot box become a mess, it's because many people want buy that and want to try their luck for wasting their money, no matter you agreed or not, just like those shitty P2W games...
Still, yeah...if people want that shit, they will still to buy, no matter how expensive and how shitty it looks like.

You see, I also would be positive if it wasn't a trend that when they release a game there is a good chance something is fucked up. Just look at the Blade Runner:

Nightdive should have known better that the timeline wasn't adequate to release a fully functional port and fix all the bugs. This isn't their first rodeo and quite frankly giving them a free pass while entirely scapegoating atari is nonsense. Kaiser who works for nightdive developed the kex engine that the port runs on so he knows all of it's intricacies and limitations to a T. Both parties share a piece of the blame.

you realize only one party needs to have no comprehension of what is and isn't an acceptable timetable, right
execs pull that shit all the time and have been doing it since the 80s

Anyway, here's something off the Blood discord

You realize that putting nightdive on a pedestal when they contributed to the problem by taking on a project without a realistic amount of time to complete it instead of turning it down is sheer ignorance, right?
Like I said, nightdive isn't a bunch of amateurs working on their first retro re-release. They should have known better but prioritized dollar signs instead of an acceptable finished product. This is especially important in this case when there are several competing ports available. If it wasn't going to be perfect than why bother? There was already better alternatives at the time and still are today.

Sure. But Blood isn't it. Big companies hiring small developers to do a product for them continues to be a disappointing prospect. Look at Sonic Origins.
Blade Runner has no excuse though.
