Just browsed through my Steam library a bit again.

The Nonary Games and Zero Time Dilemma got artwork updates.
So did (surprisingly) some of the more obscure Square-Enix games, like "I am Setsuna".
And older Touhou releases!

Some are pretty nice:


The vast majority of the remaining missing artwork in my library are now a few old abandoned games... and almost everything from Koei-Tecmo. It would be so nice if they ever got their shit even vaguely together.

VVVVVV still has a messed up library art. No excuses for Terry Cavanaugh; Dicey Dungeons' entry looks slick as hell.

Quick PSA:
Since MS broke the Windows Task Manager's on-top behaviour in Windows 10, it's somewhat easy to get into a situation where you have a running game in (pseudo-) fullscreen on top that you can't close, and that doesn't respond to Alt-F4. Most workarounds involve additional monitors, or doing at least some blind navigation of the task manager.
After running into this for the third time in a week while debugging, I searched for solutions (because they should be pretty easy to implement) and found SuperF4. It allows you to use Ctrl+Alt+F4 to kill (rather than ask politely to close) the current application. Works really well for my purposes.
Nice, I've had this a few times where I've had to hard reset

Friendly reminder that Into the Breach on EGS is DRM-free, so you can thank :timinator: for making you pay less to indie devs.

No need to say 'old abandoned games' twice Durante

It would. Especially considering they practice some of the highest prices on Steam.
Surely, putting some effort into their ports, their communication with PC users, and with their store presentation, should be the least we should expect.

What OS are you using?
Windows 10.

Does the monitor turn off, then turn on, then turn off again?
The monitor turns itself off, then after 1-3 seconds, it turns itself on again, like if the mouse has moved or something.
Happens even if I configure a good old screensaver instead of shutting the monitor off.

It sometimes happens if I have a browser tab open that has an ad or video that's autoplaying in the background. Try closing any social media pages to see if that helps.
The only thing open is Steam.

I've used various powercfg commands to see what is causing it, with no success.

I used the same monitor on my old computer and did not have any issues like this.

Chessmaster has gone the other way with it. Rather than updating to a new image, they've gone in and removed their old image too!
This is from the website, but it looks like a broken image icon in my library too.

Cloud acquisition is the worst. Epic buying Typhoon would be way better, at least you can download the game then.

About F76 on Steam:

Earlier this year, we had announced that Fallout 76 would be coming to Steam in 2019. Since then, we’ve received questions from some of you who are curious about when this will happen. Our launch on Steam is still on the way, but we’ve moved it closer to Wastelanders release in 2020. We don’t have additional details to share on this right now, but we will let you know as soon as we do.
