Not that I am aware of. But I am not going to play it again anyway, so for me it doesn't matter

Ladies and gentlemen, a full-priced remaster of a PS2 game from lord ATLUS.
PC is our only hope.
Better stick with emulation then and maybe wait to see how possible PC version performs.Ladies and gentlemen, a full-priced remaster of a PS2 game from lord ATLUS.

I grabbed it because I thought the remaster was.... well, a remaster, not the same game with even fewer improvements than Crysis. Oh well, I can stick with my physical copy if need be.
Going by this video:
I have no idea why this is even remotely interesting to anyone who played the original release on Steam (like I have). It's exactly the same game, at best they just changed a few random assets here and there.
What game is this suppose to be for?Ladies and gentlemen, a full-priced remaster of a PS2 game from lord ATLUS.

The remaster of SMT III: Nocturne (althought reading that i don't know if calling it a remaster is a correct term).
I'd say it's better than the reputation. Visually uneven and has a few bad stealth spots, but I enjoyed it quite a lot in the end.
6,500 Yen is below full-price in Japan. Will probably be $50 here. Not that it's any excuse for yet another lazy moneygrab job from Fatlus, just pointing it out.Ladies and gentlemen, a full-priced remaster of a PS2 game from lord ATLUS.

It's honestly amazing how much Atlus gets away with in the eyes of many. People love to bash Western developers for greedy practices, but you won't generally see a Western developer:
1. Release a game.
2. Have a ton of DLC for it.
3. Release a "Definitive" edition of said game for full price on the same platform 3 years later.
4. Have a ton of DLC for said "Definitive" edition anyway.
And people will still excuse all that with some bullshit like "they're a small developer" when they're only 100 people short of Bethesda that's churning out complex sandbox open-world games with huge world reactivity every 4 years and not simple dungeon crawlers with VN elements every 5 years like Atlus does. If Larian can make Original Sin 2 (you know, an actual RPG with different dialogue options and choices that matter) in 2 years and give Definitive Edition for free for all owners of the original, then there's no excuse for any of Atlus' bullshit.
And don't even get me started on their streaming/recording restrictions...
About Nocturne :
I think I read there is DLC ? What is it ?
Emulation, emulation, wasn't Nocturne famous for borked shadows ? Now having looked at a stream of the first 10 hours of the game, can't say that shadows are particularly impressive anyways in the remaster.
About modern life :
My 4K TV wants to be updated.
My ipad wants to be updated.
I don't want to update anything !
Consequently, my 4K TV cut the ethernet and my ipads nags at me every time I use it.
So I ask you, who is boss ?

Yup, Atlus is full of shit and yet they keep getting away with it. Not just their practices, even their head staffs are known mysoginic and homophobic and they proudly inject their views into their games. The defense force is relentless, especially in JRPG oriented communities.
The other Nocturne, gotcha. I thought Atlas was putting out good re-releases, or was that Sega putting in the leg work?
Castlevania LoS series is at best middling
Some good stuff and bad stuff in their design, but imo its bad stuff really hold it back
I still think they are worth playing tho, due to their visual themetic design and the combat is nice if a bit janky at some points.
The paid DLCs are Dante (who replaces Raidou) and music packs from other SMT games.About Nocturne :

As for shadows, the lighting is completely different in the Remaster since apparently the original one was coded specifically for PS2 hardware.
The only Atlus remasters I ever tried were the old ps1 games on psp (that i tried on an emulator) and soul hackers which were fine (and added some QoL improvements).
You reminded me of this post I saw some months ago:The paid DLCs are Dante (who replaces Raidou) and music packs from other SMT games.

Yeah, overall the series is almost good. I even liked the middle one once it was came to platforms that can hold a framerate.Castlevania LoS series is at best middling

Though the more time passes the better my memory of the games are.
I think my new existential question is : will XSEED / Marvelous ever put Daemon X Machina on sale.
No word on framerate, I wonder if going above 30 will make everything faster like in the original.
Im european and yet this is me during the next 24 hours:
I think Trump will win just to not make me feel too dissapointed if he does indeed win.

Seems like a minimal set of improvements. Here's hoping they don't go crazy with the pricing!
The PC version i played 2 years ago ran easily at 8K 60FPS and even came with a turbo button and was free to boot
Calling those Bloodrayne games Terminal Cut is weird, implying that the originals were not. Also amusing to see these pop up on Steam close to the same time as The Ghostbusters re-release.
The press release confirmed that yes, it's free for original owners.

Okay, I have a question regarding PayPal. If I order something and pay via PayPal and I don't get what I "ordered". How easy is it to get my money back from PayPal?

Found a promotion for google nest audio + google nest audio mini + six months of Spotify premium for 99€.
This must be fake.

That's unfortunate...if only
nah ... Ziggurat bought the rights (and the IP too?)
When it happened to me I called paypal gave them the info and usually I got my refund, they tend to side with the buyer anyway from what I know, but in my experience it was extremely easy both times I called themOff topic:

I wonder when Valve will add DualSense support to Steam, I assume they will.
OP
I keep looking for available RTX 3080 and PS5 stock basically twice a day these days and I can never find any. So far only one shop (CDON) has PS5 available for pre-purchase, but doesn't arrive until february and I don't know if they take money the second I put in an order so I won't bother. Shops don't even let people pre-purchase the GPU or PS5.
Of course now that I have so much more money that I can use of entertainment after getting a part-time job on the side of my studies (the lack of social events means more disposable income for me), what I want to buy isn't even available.

Thanks for the input.
You can always count on the stealth sections to be the worst part of a non-stealth game.
Ghostbuster is such a great game and sequel to the movies. Multiplayer on PS3 was ton of fun. I suspect it in the end killed my PS3 HDD because the multiplayer mode froze the console so many times you had to power it off by force

Atlus dont care
what was the multiplayer on ps3 like? as a pc only gamer at the time, I never got to try it outGhostbuster is such a great game and sequel to the movies. Multiplayer on PS3 was ton of fun.

Built in proper gamepad support? Yes please, the originals on gog were bad for that. Might give the 2nd game a go through GOG then, since i never could beat it due to the sloppy controlsThe press release confirmed that yes, it's free for original owners.

Looks like I actually own three Bloodrayne games on Steam. Maybe I'll play these new versions if they are good.
Also Valve really needs to paginate the profile games list, or something. Do massive wishlists also take forever to load since that's not paginated either?

I'm guessing they will once it's on the street officially (not prior-release, I mean)
I hope that camera tilting can be turned off. SRB2Kart has a mod that adds a similar camera, and it can make some people sick.
Wow, the lowest pledge to get a game is 25 dollars. Weird.
Here's another kickstarter coming soon:
