Managed to get Scott Pilgrim. Reinstalling Uplay worked for me. Yes. I had to reinstall the service to be able to buy the game.

what the fuck ubisoft you dumfucks

It's sad that Ubi has left Steam for now as I would prefer buying Ubi games on Steam, but it's first party so Im not that mad, but actually making it difficultier to buy games is a thing in itself.

And no, Im not buying Ubi games on EGS, fuck that.

Regarding Ubisoft deleting Uplay accounts that are inactive after a certain period.... I wonder if they have though about the issue if you purchased a game through Steam, and launch that game through Steam?

So, you've bought a game on Steam (even if it launches on UPlay), but since your account on UPlay is deleted, you have a permanent link on your Steam account to a game that no longer works. And I believe you probably can't repurchase the game on Steam as well?

Big virus spread alarm in my country now, cities going in lockdown with different strick rules.



I feel lucky that my mental health has yet to break down, don't know why, but my mental health has always been good.

Yet I keep reading about young people feeling awful, anxiety and depression during this pandemic. Yeah, the youth and in general young people are not doing great in most countries it seems.

Just finished Control, game is ok, man... thinking about it, Remedy only great game was Max Payne 2, Max Payne was pretty good, and both were pretty much products of it time, Alan Wake, Quantum Break and Control are all just ok. I don't think they are capable of delivering anything like the first two Max Paynes now a days.

I wonder what will Deep Silver do with SR3 Remastered when it comes on Steam. They already dropped price to 15$ on other platforms and i really wonder will they do anything for current owners. I mean i doubt that they will but i do wonder.

Loop Hero is pretty damn good.

All y'all need to play this game. It is NOT an idle get despite what I keep seeing people say. It has some concepts of those games but if you don't pay attention you're gonna get rolled.
Not really ^^. I tried the demo and I found it to get old quite quickly. Not every game is for everyone.

I love Control, absolutely adore Alan Wake, and still really enjoyed those parts of Quantum Break where I got to play it (the mediocre TV show bits were really dumb and didn't really lead to anything in the end. Easy enough to ignore, though).

Especially with Control I feel they managed to not only produce a great story and setting, but also designed by far the best combat system they ever had in a game. It takes a while until you have all key abilities, but once you do, it's so gratifying to fly around the map, throw large rocks around, pick up enemies, and experiment with the great many modes the gun offers.
That segment where "Take Control" starts playing was easily the most impressive combat segment I experienced in any game.

I had in Control the same problem I had with Quantum Break, the abilities are pretty cool and fun to use, but the more efficient way to deal with the enemies is to just shoot then, I barely used any abilities in combat. :shrugblob:

I guess it helps I'm not that good at shooting at stuff, and really loved the abilities.

If I remember correctly, someone talked about Pathfinder earlier in this thread. Since I enjoy ATOM RPG, would I enjoy Pathfinder as well?

That Record of Lodoss game is real fun. Shame it’s relatively limited in scope. I think a game like that with all the fluff of a Symphony of the Night could be huge.

It's not a direct 1:1 comparisson since they follow different cRPG templates, atom is a fallout "clone" while pathfinder is a BG's, but usually if you enjoy one type you can also enjoy the other.
The main differences between them I can think of right now is that atom is turn based while pathfinder is rtwp (although I think there's a turn based mod or something similar now), atom is much more single character focused while pathfinder is party-based and the settings/worlds are extremelly different.

edit: some much more similar games to atom woul be underrail, eschalon or even wasteland 2.

Flying+Ground Smash+Launch is by far the most efficient way of clearing enemies, the weapons are just there to bridge the gap between the times you can use those abilities - none of them are very strong on their own at all.

I haven't played their Lodoss game, but if you like it, check out Luna Nights and Pharao Rebirth+ too (same team)


Ah, yeah. I've had Pharaoh Rebirth on my eye for a while. I'll probably give it a go eventually. Luna Nights seems like it might be too technical/difficult for me based on what I've read.
