Nothing.

I'm satisfied, to be honest, but any further products announced, I'm on it, full price.

They released the game, on the store page does it say its " finished "

Even finished games get updates, more content and fixes for years and years following release.

Heres a game that released in nov 2022 and it just posted an update about what they are working on in the future

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1134700/Wild_Terra_2_New_Lands/

Skyrim was released in 2010 and has gotten numerous updates so i really dont know if you've never played any other game or you have some other reason for saying that after a game is released its not ever updated
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/489830?updates=true

and if your just being obnoxious and feeling you have to comment w/o knowing what your talking about please walk away. Im not going to try to explain why games like DayZ and 1000 others keep updating after release. And this isnt a debate, i feel you have nothing constructive to add so ill just ignore any further comments from you.
Have a nice day

@Dies Fourth
As much I love Aliens: Dark Decent and want, like you, more. There are two major difference in the games you mentioned and why they still getting post release support.

1. Both developer and publisher are basically the same company.
2. It's their own IP.

So they can do whatever they want with it.

As oppose Aliens: Dark Decent:
1. Developed by Tindalos Interactive for Focus Entertainment.
2. It's tied to a lP neither of them own.

Tindalos can't even work on a patch withouth the greenlight from Focus Entertainement. But even Focus can't fund a DLC as it has to be approved by the copyright holder of the IP first (Disney/Fox).

Focus patched both their Aliens game in November/December and since then got no depot updates on Steam anymore (which hints that they are not working on a patch). Maybe their licence to the Aliens IP has been expired in 2024, who knows. I don't know their contracts.

Source: https://steamdb.info/app/1150440/depots/

On top of that, the sales where propably too underwhelming (less than Fireteam) to fund a DLC/sequel. But without offical word we can only speculate. Or silence speaks for itself.

the lack of MP and good replayability killed this game since day one, sadly.
But maybe we'll get something at the Alien day.

My point was that games are allowed to be finished, which I suppose sounds odd to people who are accustomed to games as a service. I tend to look at games like books: I read them, have a great experience, and when it is over it is over. I can move on to other books, or reread it sometime in the future etc. (Though I suppose stuff like the Count of Monte Cristo did literature as a service, way back).

I so wish this would become true, i was looking through this forum if anything was mentioned, but i see wishes, but no facts. I loved it from start to end and love the graphics/story but yea that ended. But i certainly would not mind another story with same mechanics whatever. I never felt so compelled to keep playing just to get more of the story, man i even watch all Alien movies in the last few days and THANKS to that, there IS another movie in development woohoooo :)
Hope it will be done in 2024!

But yea, give me more of this game, please :D As another person said, full price, its so worth it!

Agreed.
To bad theres toxic forum trolls. Just block/ignore them and its good :p
Is the latest Starship Trooper game close to this fun ?
And I'd also pay for a DLC but im still hoping for free content from the developers.

Well, as for that, I keep thinking that we didn't know about DD until it was already on top of us just a few months away. I hope they could surprise us again, but I seriously doubt it.

Truly underrated and undersold (based on Steam numbers), spread the word.
Narrowmind Jan 26, 2024 @ 5:50am 
What Steam numbers? Did they even give us Steam sales? Or are you talking about Steam Charts activity?

An employee at my work told me that there were maps, he said yea i know the game when i was excited to tell how this game was. Went home, found this forum, but no workshop, so i think he does not know the game, but man i wished there's a workshop to continue to make content for this. Already gratefull for the devs and all those involved who made this game!

Where do you work that your employees get to talk about video games you play ? My job is working with disabled people and they are happy just to have some1 care for them.
