Just play monster train.
I can vouch for how good it is
Yeah, I keep getting the desire to play it again, but just like Slay the Spire, runs are just a touch too long for my tastes.
But yeah, I acknowledge I'm wrong to not play it more.

By the way, where is the April Releases thread, you lazy bum ?
lashman, say you are sorry already !

The sun is shining directly into my living room, my clothes are hot, praise the sun. I missed you !
Sorry if I'm a little incoherent, I love you all. Sun, so good.

Oh hey, I'm reminded of another thing I loved about MHW : cooking, and how ridiculously hungry those cutscenes make me.

Ten years without an open air BBQ + Friends + Pastis (or Rosé Wine).
I think I'm dying. You killed my mood, you monster.

This is the biggest downside to living in an apartment, I swear.

For you my friend, I make some progress in the highlight thread~
I still await an apology though

Clearly !
What is a man meant to do ? Take his BBQ to a fucking park ? What if I get mugged for my prime rib ? What if I want to shit ?
Oh, the inhumanity !

No, really, I'm joking but I miss those like there is no tomorrow.

Edit - Even if we somehow solve the shit-gate, I'm a little heavy handed on the liquor, I would like to look like a pathetic drunkard in my own home if possible.

I legit gasped :sweaty-blob:

Looking to rent a house with garden for 500 euros per month. What will I get, a hut ? Something by the express way ? A house on a former native cemetery ? :thinking-face:

So are they better on GarboPass? :jj_potato:
yes and no ... they both have some additional stuff (like the fps mode in TEW ... locked behind a bethnet account, lmao) ... but performance is pretty much the same (and you can't fix it with mods ... unlike the steam versions)

Li Kao I'm not a BBQ person but I sympathize with the craving need I see in your internet-eyes :p. I'll admit that this video was quite a heavy payload for one with such urges as you!

Also, QLOC didn't fix N:A, and I'm not really surprised. The GP version is actually worse because you can't mod it to fix the crashes and 59fps issue.

Every time I see these side by side comparison videos I'm like which is the good one supposed to be?
I just want those that post videos to use as few words as reasonable to tell me what the answer was. I usually don't care enough to watch the video or find out who someone is that I never heard of, but text is always readable, welcome and sometimes a tempter to watch things.

Microsoft are kings. Spread the rumor that trash port is much better on gp while it's actually worse -> profit.

fwiw, this apparently isn't accurate and SpecialK/FAR have already been updated to support the Windows 10 version

Right now someone at Square is taking all this fuss to mean "PC gamers want us to break the game on Steam also? Well, ok."

Dictator my MS Store horror story - Observation gets picked up by Gameplay Time Tracker in fullscreen only on first run after system boot. Every subsequent run counts the gametime only in windowed (which doesn't respect the resolution set in the game options).
Still worth it by not giving Devolver any money for their shitty EGSclusive deal.

And of course the moment it goes on a decent discount its on the one store that does not support my currency so buying at that price I might as well have grabbed it on those other shit discounts on Steam.

I know this probably has nothing to do with KT but fuck KT either way.

What the hell, playing TEW on Gamepass can even mess up your Steam version if you have that one !???
The Microsoft store finding new ways of outdoing itself.

But interesting, from the common discourse it all sounded like "the Game Pass versions are the definitive ones, the Steam versions were left to rot"... but this video is basically saying "the Game Pass versions have a few extra features that aren't really all that much, but the performance and other issues are the same, except you can't fix them with mods or other tools because Microsofts PC Ecosystem is a fucking garbage dumpster fire of untold proportions".
Huh.

...Why can't Microsoft be fucking normal and use the regular ass stuff instead of trying to reinvent the wheel but ending up making it square.

dont underestimate the power of gamepass fanboys
I really like Noita, I'm absolutely terrible at it but its still a great time. I'm always killing myself by mistake and for some reason it just makes me laugh rather than rage at it.
