Yeah, unless it suddenly gets a lot worse.I think the majority of my month will just be playing Genshin Impact
The only new release this month I want to play is Star Wars (mostly for VR).
New Choice tomorrow @3@
Then a 5 week time period til the next choice....
Then a 5 week time period til the next choice....
That's where I'm at more or less. When the EGS shenanigans first started I was so frustrated with it I went on an "ignore on Steam" rampage and vowed to never pay any amount of money for those sellouts even when they crawl back to Steam eventually, then I mellowed a bit and thought I'd consider them on a case by case basis. Now that so many of them are on Steam, the most interest I can muster in some of them is to remove them from the ignore list, and to wishlist an even smaller group of those games. I would've probably snapped Untitled Goose Game day one for example had it released on Steam a year ago, but now I just can't bring myself to buy it even though it's sitting at a nice 25% off and has local co-op too now! Maybe I'll get it before the sale ends, but that would be my first (and last for a very long tine probably) purchase of a former EGS moneyhat. First world problems I know but this resentment is what happens I guess when you gaslight and talk down to your customers who aren't hurting for other options in the least
Listen to this person as the truth has been spoken.
Now if you additionally manage to add some mt-32 emulation you got the definitive edition.

After a little googling, I'm so fucking sad this isn't the original dialog !
I don't have Uni conventions until 24.10, so I'll be able to play the fuck out of BG3. Can't wait.
I selfishly want Bloodstained to be included in the next humble choice.

So uh, ain't nothin' selfish about that.
My list for October is probably like this:
Sure buy:
Amnesia Rebirth (I enjoyed all Frictional games so far, so this is a no-brainer)
Maybe buy:
Mafia remake (Seems really enticing, and most of you guys seem to enjoy it)
California Games II (because I like having old classics for cheap)
Wait for reviews:
The Uncertain: Light at the End (demo seems promising, probably needs more work tho)
Grey Skies: A War of the Worlds Story (looks like my kinda game, will wait for release/reviews)
Possible purchase contenders:
Remothered Broken Porcelain (didnt play the first one yet, but this seems more interesting anyway)
Ghostrunner (demo was a bit frustrating)
This is the Zodiac Speaking (could be good)
Raji: An Ancient Epic (demo was fairly enjoyable)
Depends if it actually releases, but probably, maybe will buy:
The Outer Worlds (EGS release was Oct. 25, 2019)
Stuff thats already out and that I might get, depending on mood/price etc:
Supraland Crash (played the main game, so eventually I would like the DLC)
Night of the Dead (in Early Access, will see how it develops)
Windbound (mixed reviews right now, but seems interesting))
Ary and the Secret of Seasons (seems interesting)
Obviously thats quite a lot, so I'll try to only get a fraction of this. And see what the sale brings.

do we need an emergency alternative challenge?wow, so many people ... congrats!
Still bitter about Bloodstained, that it runs so weirdly. Going from 80fps to audio stuttering whenever I attack.T_T

do we need an emergency alternative challenge?
Is there an easy way to find all market listings for the items from a certain game?
The way I do it is to go the library page of a game, click on view my trading cards, search the market for unavailable cards, then click [game name] community items. This of course goes out the window entirely if you don't own the game.
There's got to be a better way! Wok, I've got a feeling you would know

Playing Outrun is a serious business.
Have been waiting for that one for a few months now. Finger-cross
SRB2Kart is so good. Terrible name, but great game.
Modders (of a mod... of a mod...) are crazy
Two years seem really long for a barebones remaster. The potential PC port will probably take another year after Western release. Meh.

‘Genshin Impact’ tries an interesting live service trick: Make a good game at launch
This should be a given for a new game launch, but somehow it's such a rarity. It's either crashes, server being overwhelmed, co-op not working, constant disconnects, barebone content, or the combination of all that. Genshin Impact has none of that, it just works.

Always has been.Playing Outrun is a serious business.
Only question is:
What is THE Outrun track to play while racing for the top?
Obviously it is this one

Went to the salon today to get a haircut (2 months since last time). She said my hair had gotten darker and thicker over the last year. So that's nice.
Expecting a future headline be like
"Players bored at smooth Genshin Impact launch : 'I was kinda looking forward to at least some crashes' "

Random post, but I just want to say it out loud: I absolutely despise Amazon UK's customer service.
I try to be respectful of customer service representatives, but clearly, these guys don't give a shit.
Cheers

I'd try Genshin Impact, but it forbids running in a VM and the kernel-level anti-cheat pretty much checks itself off my to-play list .

I’m toying with the idea of playing Genshin on ipad. Not that I’m terribly interested in maxing it out and their former game, Honkai, controlled well enough on mobile.
But that’s exchanging kernel fuckery for clipboard peeking nonsense. They really make no effort to be loved.

Hades is pretty cool! Bliss playing it on a fast screen with variable refresh rate and the game running like 190fps!
Can't help to imagine what it could have been if it was more like Diablo and not a rogue lite.

Lets take a look at card games and some RPGs this time in "Discoveries in Discovery Queue"!
Cartridge defense
A roguelite combination of card-based and tower defense. It is still in EA but it seems to have a decent amount of content already!
RPG card game adventure. Choose your destiny and beat the consequences.
Amazing Cultivation Simulator
This fine Chinese game is finally getting an English translation! It is similar to Rimworld on the sense of a randomized map you need to work around. This time, you need to make sure you increase your cultivation and become a god among men.
Rough Google Translate:
Vaporum is a steampunk dungeon crawler where you need to dig deep to know what the fuck happened in the tower of Vaporum

Daily reminder that Sans and Steve are in Smash but Geno isnt
He's not a character from 1996 no one but hardcore enthusiasts remember.
I wish people would show the same energy for hundreds of other games with kernel anti cheats including pretty much every Ubisoft game, Fortnite, ARMA, Halo, etc. Even the most beloved Fall Guys has it.I'd try Genshin Impact, but it forbids running in a VM and the kernel-level anti-cheat pretty much checks itself off my to-play list
I think it's what we call a "Boomer moment"
You figure it out after yelling at the cloud for the first time like all old men. So in about a weekCan someone please explain to me how it's already October? I'm going to be 30 years old in a few weeks
Hardcore enthusiasts? These nintentoddlers are cute.
You want to be an enthusiast, you gotta know Lord British, Adol, Graham, Werdna, Dizzy the Egg, Guybrush Threepwood, just to name a few.
ya it is, he's a good sarcastic jokester on twitter
but for real though, imagine the rage when jonesy and ramirez (fortnite) get announced next
Four close beta tests probably helps a lot. Heck during the third close beta, the PS4 version ran worse than the mobile version.
But it's not without any controversy though, "genshin impact" and "spyware" became trending on Japanese Twitter.
