Amazing stuff! If you enjoyed Skyrim and Nehrim, there's no way around this mod. Quite huge and well-designed world (three+ climate zones) with lots of exploration, good story and entertaining quests. Also professional voice acting. This could easily be a DLC or a game of its own. Naturally, there are bugs and shortcomings that require some patience at times, but for a noncommercial release, that's all forgiven. Took my time with it, some 60 hours or so.
The English version is scheduled for release in August. 8 GB download. Highly recommended.
Okay Let's Have A List....

Definitely a lot of entries attempting to make it big but I will have to say Overwatch is an enjoyable "sit and play" for a few hours game with friends.
Yeah

Overwatch is the game, the others are the clones.

That I'd touch it with a fucking bargepole of course. But it got there first in the current batch.
Ah I See

Yeah, I didn't even know Lawbreakers was a thing until I saw it on the Game Grave.
Paragon seems to be a more boring version. Overwatch has approach-ability, and has charming characters.
Poor Battleborn seems like it could have some merit as it has multiplayer PvE but its release was overshadowed by Blizzard's next big hit.
Who knows about Quake Champions, I am sure there will be some pull to influence micro transactions of some sort. I'll stick with OG Quake!

Looks generic as fuck, but the gfx look really nice and the theme might well be appealing...

Latest Trailer
Giger/Beksinski inspired FPS. Neat flesh gun (not the giger variety) at the 2:20 mark, reminiscent of PREY.
Looks really cool, not sure what they're really going for in terms of gameplay though.
Latest Trailer.

Looks spot on.
Graphics decent already. Animations and effects are cool. Functionality with initiative, movement commands etc look great.
Mechwarrior meets XCom? Sold.

I'm a little nervous about that "Eliminate Enemy Units 0/5" and "Destroy Reinforcements 0/4" thing. Kinda removes any element of surprise, perhaps even suggests segmentation or compartmentalization of mission design? Also, I don't like how the enemy reinforcements just spring up in the middle of the map instead of having to enter the map from the edges. Does the player even have the option of scouting those areas in advance and camp their spawn points? What would happen then?
I hope they don't bring the kind of mission design qualities they've shown here into the full game because it seems rigid and predictable. I'd prefer mission design that's more organic and free-flowing, like MechCommander 1's.
Yes I Agree With That.

Mission structure does not seem that exciting yet. But the core gameplay seems work very nicely.
I really liked MechCommander2, never played 1 tho.

Anyone playing this?? It's okay. UI and functionality is good, graphics are good with the usual caveat that you have to play so zoomed out you can't see fuck all.
The worst thing by far is that although there is a proper plot progression going on, the actual game missions are all pure and simple 1v1 vs AI skirmishes, right down to randomly generated sections of space. Really lets it down. Gonna keep playing tho.

The future of AM2R
As you may know already, AM2R received DMCA notices in all the download hosts, and some parts of this blog.
Ehh Nevermind, Found It!

AM2R is floating around the torrent sites and it run seamlessly under WINE. It is very well made.

Yeah I grabbed it soon as I heard about it, I didn't think Nintendo would let that slide. They are very protective of their stuff. It's pretty great so far though, I would've definitely paid some amount of money for this as a download title.
