Raji is probably EGSxclusive. Sucks, but from what I've read, it's understandable. The devs almost went bankrupt and they were literally looking for other jobs while develping the game.

wow wtf. you currently need an fb account to do any social posting from the headset but i don't bother since i play nothing online and don't keep a friends list.
funny thing is they say developers won't have to use fb and the current developer registration method is just signing up as one on their site so i wonder if i am okay to not have a facebook? i only signed up as a dev to unlock sideloading.
i currently use it mostly for wireless pc vr through a sideloaded app so it seems like i'd still be okay to do that but it would be pretty frustrating if i lost access to the few headset apps i have bought via the oculus store in 3 years.
What if you use the headset with SteamVR? Will it still require FB or it is for Oculus store only?
And Cellar Door Games follows Valve suggested regional pricing 100%: Prompts to them
Ouch, need to sell my Rift S before this happens. What an idiot move, I guess only hope is that this would bring shitstorm and Facebook need to back off.
my thoughts when reading on this and considering it more are a few things.
1. dev accounts being exempt and also so easy to create makes me think this is specifically targeting the true casual vr user
2. they are totally gonna start charging for dev accounts soon
3. my next headset won't be oculus but also probably wont be purchased for a while cause i can't go back to wired vr
very frustrating all around, especially as someone that has been pretty excited for vr and getting my friends into it too.

from their discord it seems like Nintendo helped them a lot in some way and the other version PS4/Xo/Steam still aim for Q3 2020Raji is probably EGSxclusive.

I wonder what John Carmack thinks of that

Also if there are two words I can't bear to hear anymore, they are game and pass. People have been shoving it in my face over and over, completely ignoring the issues with both its method of distribution, business model and the fact it doesn't fix anything when it comes to non-gamepass pricing mistakes.
Which could be intentional, which makes the wholeastroturfing nagging about gamepass even more grating.

it's very hard to pitch game pass without sounding like a shill 
so i just tell my friends who are new to pc to look at the game list and decide if they are interested. i think it's an easy transition for console players cause they are used to paying a monthly/yearly fee to get online and a couple games a year so this seems like a bargain. my friends who have been pc players for years are far more wary of the whole concept especially considering it's coming from ms.
as someone who has an xbox and a pc it's kind of a no brainer for me but i think that's a pretty limited demographic for them, or maybe not since gp ultimate exists.

If anyone hasnt played RE7 correct this mistake asapNot bad.
We don't have a release date for Spelunky 2, and I need my fix now. :kappa:
I have no issue with it in itself if people are happy with it. But when the conversation goes :it's very hard to pitch game pass without sounding like a shill

"The price is unfair and wrong!"
"Use gamepass!"
"That's a subscription, it doesn't hel-"
"But gamepass is tremendous value for over two hundred games!"
"Yes, but the price on Ste-"
"Please visit xbox.com and sign up for just one dollar for the first month!"
"..."
I kind of feel deeply compelled not to ever get near it or these fellow customers.
That's a very interesting idea. I'm intrigued.
What if I'm too much of a coward?
oh yeah that's different and just annoying. gamepass is a whole different animal and even though they give you a discount on buying games it's still not even close to the same as a steam integrated title.
i use gamepass as a test service and way to try things i've never gotten into before. if its a longer investment game and i like it, i'll usually shell out for it. if i don't, no harm no foul. a good example is crusader kings or flight sim. there is a 0% chance i try either of those for the asking price but if they are included in a subscription i already pay for i'll try it out and see what i think. it's led to me playing games i never would have considered before and really liking some of them too.
also i so rarely play anything day one anymore that a lot of the games on the service are new to me even though they are sometimes years old
The game is endless, will be played for a long time, will leave game pass after 1 year unless Paradox extends the cotnract so you'll lose your save and playtime won't carry over and you also have to buy all the DLC on game pass so you have to double dip on them on Steam.

you could just buy the game with a gp discount if you like it and not run into any of those issues too
The game leans more on horror but it still has the dumb funny thing here and there. i’m a scaredy cat as well and I only recall one scene of the game that I was genuinely afraid lol
finding out how/if ms store causes any issues with the game is usually including in my game pass testing process lol. perhaps subbing just for the one game would be a bad call but i'd say subbing for any single game is a bad call cause nothing there is permanent other than first party. gp is best used as a testing/netflix of games situation rather than a replacement game library. if something sticks with you, then buy it on steam/ms/console

News - Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) Crosses the 60K Concurrent STEAM Players Figure, also 2nd in the Global Top Sellers
As of 10:04 PM my time and 10: 04 AM Pacific USA Time, this is where its at: Now at 61, 777. Seems like it'll end up in the 61K figure. Anyways.. For comparison with Recent AAA, Full priced games, here are some of the launch day concurrent Steam Peaks: DOOM Eternal: 104,891 Resident Evil...

I don't own RL1. I should have seen the loyalty discount coming and should have bought it for 2.87€ during summer sales.Also Rogue Legacy price got updated
I am not optimizing my purchases these days:
- I did not buy Meterofall during EA, and I ended up buying it full price after the release of 1.0
- I bought RL2 during EA but without the loyalty discount.
At first I thought this was just a funny coincidence, but now I'm wondering if Flight Sim is just simply cursed
The installer is a big piece of shit.At first I thought this was just a funny coincidence, but now I'm wondering if Flight Sim is just simply cursed
Also:
No, but 1 year has been for every game pass game on console and PC afaik.
Sure sounds like it. The article has many anecdotes of Epic helping them, and then there's the last part of the story:Raji is probably EGSxclusive. Sucks, but from what I've read, it's understandable. The devs almost went bankrupt and they were literally looking for other jobs while develping the game.

Edit:
Although I now realised this article is from June, so this might in fact refer to the Switch timed exclusivity. It was released there today. Raji: An Ancient Epic Surprise-Launched As Timed-Switch Exclusive
