Sakuna is 13th in the global top sellers, higher if you don't count all the different copies of destiny 2
Yup. Since I'm getting a refund on XIII I might pick it up too just to support good regional pricing (and being a good game, unlike XIII)
AC: Valhalla has a monkey Island like insult fight mini game.
If you plan on playing Vesperia, I highly recommend you learn Manual Cancelling as soon as you come across your first few battles. It completely changes the way you play the game, and will also feel less sluggish since you're cancelling out the recovery time between attacks.
I did it too!
Great game. Highly recommended
Ubisoft Connect (Uplay) is bugged or something. I have completed around 40% or something of Legion, but time tracked says only 1h49 min which I know is bullshit. And Valhalla doesn't have cheevos or other stats like time tracked.
So I got the Razer Blackshark V2 X headset, only 70€, I expected a big fall in quality from my more expensive headphones. But can happily say they don't suck!

It's interesting to see which devs/publishers are embracing vtubers. Blows my mind that a game like Among Us still doesn't have an official JP localization when there's barely any text to translate and how popular it is among Hololive.
Yeah, it really is just a sum of all sorts of little things that add up. Color palette, architecture, animations, sound design, enemy design, it might not seem big on its own but it really accumulates into something that kind of sours the experience for me. I really loved how the original was so different to Dark Souls and Bloodborne with how drab it was and the completely different architecture and artstyle. There's something appealing about the early Medieval architecture combined with the Christian-ish religious undertones (of course in classic FromSoft fashion this gets subverted but that's a different story) that creates a vastly different tone compared to the gothic and pantheonic Dark Souls or the Victorian and Lovecraftian Bloodborne. Bluepoint appear to have missed this and gone full blue (or more green really)/orange contrast for the sake of color grading and replaced Boletaria with Lothric. Tone deaf is what it comes off as, and I don't like it one bit.
I won't even get into stuff like soundtrack or enemy design or particle effects because I'll probably end up writing a whole essay about it, but I'll just say that I really wish Sony would properly port the original game onto PC, but now that's never going to happen which is a shame. Emulation is close but doesn't beat a real PC port.
Falconeer is giving me strong House of the Dying Sun vibes, but about a billion times more contemplative and weird. UI scaling is unpleasantly smudgy and about a crapton of options that I'd like are missing (a camera mouselook toggle and sensitivity slider, pretty please), but boy this seems to be special.
Fun fact: historical evidence from the time (writing, depictions, etc.) make it quite likely that the sky was fairly low-res and had weird angular artefacts in ancient Scandinavia, as well as strangely flat lighting on all objects.
Beautiful game.
Amazing that Ubi is going the extra mile here to make the experience as authentical as possible.
It's still fancy VR by the lore, no? Protagonist doesn't have a 3090 I guess
It's just a glitch in the Animus, as intended.
Ok, Sakuna is fucking lovely, I love when blind purchases pay off 
It kinda reminds me of Goemon games a tad.

I'm playing Metro 2033 which according to the one achievement I unlocked the first time I started it I'll finally beat 10 and a half years after beginning it.
Like a dragon is second best release of the franchise on Steam, keep in mind the price of this game compared to Kiwami and Zero (Kiwami 2 was full price too)
I used to play LoL almost exclusively during S1-S3. Then meta changed a lot and I kinda lost the motivation to play. Ended up dropping it in favor of other games (mainly CoD4 Promod and later CS:GO). I tried coming back at various points, but never stayed for more than 5-6 games.
This time, I think this is it. I'm really feeling it again. The same drive to play I had back then.
I just fear the same anger outbursts I had every time I lost will come back too at some point. It's not like I don't have them in other games, but still...

Release bumped up from next year to this Dec 1st.
Right now is pretty much the best time to get back in since they've reworked pretty much every single item in the game and everyone will be figuring stuff out.I used to play LoL almost exclusively during S1-S3.

Is Steam broken for anyone else after the scheduled maintenance?
My Wishlist is now empty, I can't use any search filters, all the games I put on ignore are now unignored and my game list is only showing these:
Edit: All my reviews are gone too.

More Scarlet Nexus gameplay from XBox launch stream. It starts at 5:37:30 if the timestamp doesn't work.
It really does look and feel like Astral Chain somehow. We've got the base to interact with our pals, from which you can go to the city for exploration and quest gathering, and then you go to the mission area to hunt monsters.

Some Yakuza: Like a Dragon screenshots, the game works fine with Dual Shock 4 (no weird maps, no need to use Steam controller config or emulate Xbox pad).

Just tried Torii (Humble Original for this month) and it’s... not great. It’s definitely trying to be one of those abstract narrative games in the Journey/Abzu/Gris vein, which isn’t a bad thing, but it has a generally janky feel and obtuse mechanics/level design (at least once you get to the more open Act II), and what little story the game gives you doesn’t seem to be doing much of anything new or interesting for this subgenre. Maybe it’ll improve with some patches, I dunno.
Well Virtua Fighter 5 is finally on steam [UWSL][/UWSL] .
[/UWSL] .
I bought it back in 2012 and I've started it twice and never made it more than about an hour in. Still, I want to play it! (someday)
Just watching the Apple keynote and they lowkey confirmed to that Baldurs Gate 3 would come to the new ARM processors. Will be interesting to see just how well it plays.
Seems the integrated GPU had 2.8 tflops or something like that, so it's not horrible.

With these consoles you have to wait at least a year before purchase.
Next gen game releases are usually quiet in first year anyways but Covid will make the first year very quiet for this time around. So I wouldn't expect Horizon 2, God of War 2, Fable, Avowed, Gran Turismo or even new Forza before 2022. Halo Infinite might make it next year but I expect a bunch of things to get delayed too. Like FF16 for example.
So a year from now they will be 50-100$ cheaper plus they will be much more updated in terms of stability, features, apps etc. Games will be cheaper. Sony's PS+ vault should be bigger too.
Also you will get a better deal on 4k HDR televsions and monitors which are a must for XsX/PS5.
Buying them now just seems too stressful and pointless tbh.
PS5 doesn't have FreeSync support? And it does have VRR support but not at launch? I guess Sony really is detached from PC compared to LG and Samsung (who in addition to TVs) who make PC monitors (Sony use to make some years ago but I guess they never adopted the new features that monitors have. )
Just be warned the games have literally zero options outside input remapping (and you can't have duplicates so, I end up with triangle blank after setting everything). It's just arcade mode, you sit down to play and it does the intro stuff and the moment you press a button you're taken right to character select to play through it. VF2.1 has a few different cabinets set to different difficulty levels each, VF5 FS only appears to have whatever setting is default for it. From the game's title screen however you can choose to start them in 2p VS mode (and so far don't have the option to play the arcade mode through that). They don't appear to be running at native resolution either, those screenshots were taken with the main game running at 2560x1440 and 5 FS certainly looks way lower.Well Virtua Fighter 5 is finally on steam [UWSL]

Yeah, I got charged twice for Uplay+. Transaction still says "reserved" in my bank, but fuck Ubisoft. Looking at social media Im actually lucky as people have been reportedly charged twice and more (some 3 and 4 times) and haven't even had Uplay+ activated yet.
I actually like Ubisoft Connect in terms of design and usability, but the backend sucks.
Apparently Valve is the only one able to make a competent and working backend.

it's just a launcher, though
My Valhalla purchase at 109kr still remains weird.
It's been 2 days days or so and I have yet to receive an email order confirmation, it has not appeared in the order overview on my account, but money has been charged and the game does not have the Ubisoft+ symbol in the library like Legion and other Ubisoft+ games does and Valhalla Ultimate Edition store page says that "You already own this game", which Legion does not. So I assume that I own it despite no order confirmation.
What a clusterfuck.

Look XSX is trying to download Steam.
On a serious note: There are always complaints about defect hardware during a console launch. Millions of delivered products means that some of them will be defect, no way around it.
But smoke... Yeah that could be rather dangerous.

Methink he doesn't have bug issues anymoreMaybe that person has bugs issues.
Not the tech ones.
Turns out, the only thing Valve has a monopoly on, is the ability to hire competent people, who care about what they are doing, and listen to your customers.
I say they should be regulated, they can't keep getting away with making their rivals look like complete fools all the time!
