Well at this moment we only have Predator and that one game that I forgot the name on EGS which are smaller games and Death Stranding on both EGS and Steam.

If the rumour about HZD is true we'll see where Sony will put it on.
Sony aren't publishing Death Stranding, though ... 505 are (and even then it's only NOT egsclusive because of Kojima ... i guarantee you both Tim and 505 absolutely wanted to make it one)

I think I'm never going to finish Persona 5, right now I have an amazing speed of 1 dungeon per year. After 1 dungeon I completely lose an interest in the game and do something else until I remember that it's still sitting on my hard drive. Maybe it's a time to delete it for good.

Hmm, looks to me like that package has the real PES 2020 in it. Error? Free full version?

edit: LITE version? :: eFootball PES 2020 General Discussions

edit2: Nah, not the full version.

Well so... something weird happened, a couple of weeks ago I received an email from Steam telling that my Steam controller order was cancelled.... I double checked and it's still there and It says it's cancelled.

But... today I received an email from GLS saying that "my package" is being delivered and that I will receive It today. I did not order anything since the Steam sales.

So... is there actually a chance that I'm getting a Steam controller?

Oh right I forgot about 505.

To be honest the daily life part is boring.

P5 is just too slow for me. The idea of spending up to 100h to reach the ending is just too much.

(It's been the subject of scorn within VR communities for al ong time.)
Well, for a subset of "VR communities" which is basically "hysterical redditors".

I've been following VR since before the Oculus DK1 kickstarter.
If you listen to the loudest voices in those "communities", then everyone wants total gut-wrenching stick-sliding carnage, everywhere, and alternatives should be an afterthought for a small minority at best.
If you look at both actual VR newcomers and less vocal longterm users such as myself (or other VR pioneers I know in real life) then you get quite a different story.
it just sucks because it likely means sony will release ALL their games on egs (this is the second one they're doing egsclusivity for)
It's a perfect opportunity for them.

Get money while not contributing to anything that might be a long-term healthy competitor. (And maybe even slightly damaging something that very much is one of those)

You guys think Team Cherry took EGS money for Silksong?

Not saying there are any rumors or stuff going around, just thinking about it.

No, I consider that unlikely. As far as I know they self-publish, and they were really successful on Steam, and they always seem to take extremely good care of their original backers.

I don't think they want the money badly enough to take the reputation hit.

Got myself finally a new keyboard (corsair k70 mk2), retiring my 12 years old keyboard (Logitech wave something). Also my first mechanical keyboard.

Now only things I didn't replace this year is mouse & display. expensive hobby.

Well so... something weird happened, a couple of weeks ago I received an email from Steam telling that my Steam controller order was cancelled.... I double checked and it's still there and It says it's cancelled.

But... today I received an email from GLS saying that "my package" is being delivered and that I will receive It today. I did not order anything since the Steam sales.

Yeah some people have received controller despite being cancelled. (And refund as a bonus).

Valve really did fuck this up.

Steam displays mods friends have installed?

FWIW, I have 21 seconds on a 9900k, so it's not that big a difference.

But I have a non-consumer number of HDDs, PCIe devices and USB devices connected which probably affects this.
22.8 seconds with X570 Taichi, 3900x, 1x NVME 6x SATA HDD, 2x SATA SSD, RTX GPU, 1x PCIE card (which technically is two cards in one and a pcie switch for whatever reason).

I think my previous was in low tens (3960x, old Intel one, not recent AMD)

But this seems to be general problem with x570. I takes forever to boot to even post screen, which I'm not sure is fully counted).





I love real competition. And Tim said by not having Steam would result in cheaper games...

Nah it's just a written notification that your controller is, for sure, cancelled. The notification comes in a box because it's more official like that.

I think there's no chance of it. Hollow Knight has sold a bazillion copies on PC and all the consoles, so they don't need the money. And Silksong will sell well too. They're giving the game away to backers of hollow knight. I just can't see them doing a dick move like EGS for a year, when it can't benefit them that much, and they'd only stand to lose good will.

Wait, Norway has cheaper pricing than France? I thought Norway was a rich country. Do not tell me that you have the same regional pricing as Poland.

Edit: No way! Poland pays more than Norway!

I’d like to live in Norway tbh. Or Finland. They seem to be pretty chill (no pun intended)

We're in EU. so by some shitty law we can't have different prices than rest of EU countries. :\

Hades explicitly mentions GIFTABLE copy of Pyre on the banner. But when at checkout good guy Gaben warns me of the betrayal and that I won't get a giftable copy?

It comes with two copies for now, one for library (if you don't own) and one inventory gift (whatever you own or not).

Bought Hades, it's one of my most wanted EGSD exclusives and I loved what I played it durign the Epic Mega Sale before refunding my copy of it. It's a fantastic game.
