Windows store/game pass games are not showing up anymore in GOG Galaxy 2. I have reconnected, resynchronised and restartet GOG Galaxy 2. Nothing.
I have Bleeding Edge and Surge 2 installed to check them out, but I keep forgetting them unless I start GOG Galaxy 2.

Stolen from the new release page thread ...
Looks amazing. 2022? Gah ...

Has anyone tried this?
Time mechanics look interesting.
(I had never heard of it before, doesn't exactly bode well for this launch :/)

I was checking twitter, and an account I follow that posts pulp literature, old advertising, and similar stuff posted this image that I found funny, for reasons some users of this forum may understand :
The tweet in question:
Sorry, lashman, you know I never mention other forums, but I found this image hilarious.

I reviewed it and quite liked it, although it does have a few issues. The time mechanic is indeed well made. If you have any questions, ask away.

It's the colours of the costume. They match Freeman's suit
That's enough for me to put it on my wishlist
So, at least in this game, DLSS 2.0 is really quite neat. I have to say I'm impressed.
Spot the difference:
I did discover some artifacts related to bright emissive materials in another environment, but they were honestly rather minor.
I can hardly really tell, in the link that they post it seems like it shows the character attacking with a crowbar but that seems to be about it. (It's hard to tell with pixel style art some times

Just finished Half Life Alyx, jeez what a fantastic game. Just extremely polished VR gameplay with great gameplay scenarios, interesting exploration, great environments, just everything. It's what you would have wanted out of a true Half Life sequel, but it's just so much extra with all the VR mechanics on top. The action and challenge really did ramp up, but I didn't ever face any real stiff challenge on normal. Started a 'hard' run. I think normal will be fine for the average VR gamer though.
Man, by the end with the story stuff - just incredible. I'll say no more. I think what will stick with me the most is just the world and the environments etc. The occupied Earth is just so, so much more vivid now.
It wasn't perfect, of course. I ran into a 'soft lock' and a couple crashes before the recent patch. I have a save near the end that can't progress because I actually blasted through a zone so skillfully the trigger to allow me into the next area didn't fire. I also still did miss the physics puzzles, but I think the replayability will be higher as a result.
Cyberpunk's gonna have a hard time living up to Alyx, but maybe I'll be surprised. But yeah probably a shoe-in for my GOTY.
Side note, but when are VR speed runners gonna become a thing? There are some great games for speed running out now.
Have almost 12 hours clocked but some of that time was idle so I'd say it took me 9-10 hours of actual gameplay. I ended up being able to upgrade my weapons about 75%.
Also, pretty sure this is my favorite game in years, even though there are some close runners-up - Beat Saber, Astro Bot, Robo Recall, in the past 4 years anyways...
P.S. Played through on my Oculus CV1. The controls were just perfectly natural throughout.

Found it real useful in some sections to carry around a bucket filled with items, such as spare grenades. REALLY helped in a few sections to bring 8+ grenades to a battle!

In some spots it's indistinguishable. In others, like the rocks, it's really blurry by comparison. You can tell detail is missing.That's enough for me to put it on my wishlist

The bottom one is nicer to me. The differences become really apparent when you look over the gun. Less blur on edges.That's enough for me to put it on my wishlist

What is the top AA solution and which is the bottom?
DLSS idea is to make games rendered at 1440p look like they’re running at 4K, or 1080p games to look like 1440p. Yeah there's some loss of detail as you saw, it's not magic or anything, but it definitely doesn't look like a 1080p image upscaled with traditional methods and some simple AA on top either.
Nope, that was the first thing I made very clear in my review. The gameplay is 90% combat, 5% puzzle solving and 5% story and exploration. It's a full-on tactical game.
By the blurriness, I guess the top one is DLSS, but it also tanks the framerate so I'm not sure I understand the point of this. Wouldn't it make more sense to compare native 4K with DLSS run at a lower resolution?That's enough for me to put it on my wishlist

My understanding was that renders at a lower resolution than you current one, which explains both performance gains (when compared with the rendering it natively at a high resolution) , and higher image quality (when comparing it with the lower resolution DLSS starts from)
Man HL:A......

Free Endless Legend expansion, for those who don't own it already:

same ... can't wait! i LOVE those games
buy it! it's gooooooooooooooooooood!
Remedy signs deal with Epic for two next-gen games | VGC
UPDATED: Control studio signs with new label…

Good, I was worried Sony was gonna buy them. I need Remedy games on PC. Despite their flaws, I love them.
Looking back on it today, a lot of the bluriness in detail are surprisingly on the original image with a small oversharpening amount on the DLSS ones or artifacts left by motion blur on the leaves. The difference in framerate puzzles me though.
Edge got dates bit wrong on their Valve special.
Gabe is ex-WoW gold farmer (lol):
Claiming being able to call Valve and get answer from Gabe Newell? Must be bollocks.

The most significant artifacts I've found so far are on the high-contrast transitions around the bright lines here:
Ok, this shit is magic. It's faster, and looks better
So it's not magic, but it's pretty good.

Bad timing with that release. My hands are full on deck on Alyx right now.
it's out!
This looks fucking ace! My girlfriend is really hyped for this and endorses me buying it at full price.
it's out!
OP
I'm completely out of the loop, but I seem to understand DLSS is basically upsampling from a lower-resolution image. This technique appears to be heads and shoulders above any upsampling technique, including checkerboard rendering. Would you agree?
Also does it rely on temporal reprojection to know which pixels to discard?
