C'mon SEGA, don't let us down. Please allow PC VR too. :face-with-cold-sweat:
To be fair, all VR licensed games from SEGA have come or been confirmed for PC so I don't think this will be a exception.

REZ Infinite came to PC (licensed to Enhance)
Space Channel 5 has been already confirmed for PCVR (licensed too)

I don't have any doubt that this will come too.
 
Like Alyx wasn't reason enough to be jealous of VR users, now there's also a Panzer Dragoon game of all things. Fucking Panzer Dragoon! Fuck my life.

Gamepass stays winning.

MS is great for giving people the option between game pass and Steam. I really dislike renting games as I don't want a time limit on fun, so I bought the game on Steam.

But Ori regional price is sky high in some countries, so game pass is great to have too.
 
Man, I wish I could enjoy metroidvania games with so many of them releasing these past few years.
 
Heh, a colleague is currently streaming his lecture/lab on twitch. (Unsurprisingly, since our entire University was switched to 100% remote literally over night, the Uni streaming services are not currently up to scratch)
 
"Metroidvania" is a pretty broad genre though.
Ori is definitely more of an action-platformer with some veeery light Metroidvania elements.

Some are hella more RPG, or puzzle based.

sorry lash, my brain is dead as well.

trying the puzzle now before i call it a night, will see.

yeah ... i just can't wrap my head around this one ... and it's actually the only one left ... i did everything else ... but just can't do this one :negative-blob:

I think I've checked everything and I don't think you can find a solution by looking at this slice. Are all the other ones complete ?

that's the thing - there are just 2 slices here ... and the other one only gives you the blocks with "2" on the face, nothing else :negative-blob:

What’s this game called? 😯



has a demo too ... and workshop integration ... highly recommended!

Just started playing Spyro, it's a lot of fun, too bad Ori is tomorrow and Blands 3 on friday.

Devs/pubs needs to stop releasing games so I can actually work through the games I already have.

Have yet to buy Curse of the Dead, Saints & Sinners, Budget Cuts 2, Greedfall and Darksiders Genesis due to too much to play.
 
So you admit you're a monster then.

Can’t help it. I know voxel based games don’t need to necessarily look like Minecraft, but it’s a small price to pay to never see all those awful blocky games in my feed :smiling-face-with-halo:

The Touryst (Switch), for example, seems like a decent game at first glance, but I tried the demo and couldn’t get over its aesthetic. I find it really off putting for some reason :(

Which university is that?
We only have a couple of canceled events and meetings.
 
I'm still mad at the terrible pricing for Ori. The fact that they increased it here only makes it worse. The good thing is I have a lot of other games to play, so it won't be that bad. Hopefully by the time I'm ready to play it it'll be 75% off or so.

yeah ... complete dick move
 
what is he lecturing on?
Compiler construction. It's actually not the lecture, but the lab (I'm doing the lecture).

University of Innsbruck.

3 Students were tested positive yesterday, and they all attended a student party in the previous week, so the University decided to make all teaching activities remote/streaming only for now.

Are you talking about the regional pricing or the pricing in general?
Because I feel like the pricing for me (30€) is rather decent.

(I mean, I want the game a lot more than most 60€ games :p)

can you tell me exactly which puzzle it is ? I don't remember if they're numbered, but you could just tell me the name of the diorama and its position starting from the left.

I'm at work but I should be able to help you in about 2h !

Oh I remember this, looks cool! Do you basically solve the various pieces to create a sort of Diorama?

yeah, pretty much :)

I mean regional pricing. $30 for the US price is pretty good, but here in Argentina we're forced to pay more than that. It sucks, and because of that I refuse to buy it until it has a deep discount.

Got it.

4th row from the top, the one with 7(3).
Do you see the two green-colored cubes with a "2" separated by a single white cube? If you were to paint it green, you'd end up having two groups... one with 2 cubes and one with 4. You'd be left with having to paint one more cube to get to 7, but it would be impossible to get 4 separate contiguous groups (since 7(3) means that you need to distribute 7 among 4 distinct groups). This means that you need to clear that white block.

The price here in Switzerland is 49.00 CHF. For comparison Alyx is 53.99 USD and 51.75 CHF here.

It's even more expensive, by far, than Microsoft's own games. Moon Studios is from Austria, do you guys have beef with us that i don't know about ? :disapproval-blob:
 
The 25th Anniversary Edition Physical Edition of Command & Conquer includes a Steam code:


This is a weird world we are living in.

i wish they'd also support steam's regional pricing ... sigh

Same.
 
C&C isn't even on EGS. I wonder if Star Wars was a one time thing pushed by Disney or they just haven't worked out the details yet?

pretty sure it's gonna be there soon ... Fallen Order wasn't immediately on there either ... i imagine it was Tim placing a few phonecalls to make that happen ... and i'm sure it'll happen again soon

that's how wars are fought now :p
War has changed.

It's no longer about gameplay, story, or graphics. It's an endless series of downloadable content, fought by developers and publishers.

War--and its consumption of money--has become a well-oiled machine.

War has changed.

DRM-tagged players carry DRM-tagged hardware, use DRM-tagged software. Hacking tools inside their computers enhance and regulate their abilities.

Lack of regional pricing, installation limits, preorder bonuses, market control... Everything is monitored and kept under control.

War... has changed.

The age of piracy has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from starving developers, and he who controls the market, controls history.

War... has changed.

When the market is under total control, war becomes routine.
