Humble Best of BANDAI NAMCO Bundle

We’re bringing you the best of Bandai Namco, with a bundle of games like Code Vein and Project Cars 3. Pay what you want & support charity!

www.humblebundle.com

I only want RAD and Code Vein from this but at $20....

Pretty excited about it, although I'm feeling a bit disappointed at the recycling of a few dishonored power. Still, this feels like a mix of the pure mayhem of chaos runs with the OCD of information and lore-gathering of pacifist runs.

Thanks for the heads up but I am in media blackout for the game til release XP
and yeah one discord channel I am in joked about the 'Blink-not-Blink', so the return of some powers from Dishonored doesn't bother me much when I can shotgun fools and reload it like Arnie in Terminator 2

[NarohDethan]

There's a movie???

 

[AHA-Lambda]

ah live action.
Which means there's almost certainly no legal way to watch it in the UK then like 99% of japanese films

 

[Swenhir]

"not a roguelike"

I think what the marketing is clumsily trying to say is that it's not a bad roguelike .

In all seriousness, I think I understand their problem, it's like trying to explain that Outer Wilds isn't quite a roguelike despite your, y'know, having suntanning issues.

So, Snowrunner on Steam:

Which version to buy? Premium or standard?

Is it better to get standard to get a feel for the game and then purchase the expansions separately?

The video starts with a Persona game.
So....

Everyone, I implore you: please don't buy the bundle for Code Vein. And if you do buy it, just make your dream big tiddie goth gf in the character creator and then shut the game off, because it is not worth your time. Yes, even if you like anime.

This PSA was not sponsored by lashman, but honestly he should be paying me for decrying anime like this.

This is wrong thing to shut down Bethesda, damn it!!!

Hey guys, I was wondering, how do you clean your PCs? Canned Air? I saw that now there are electrict blowers (!).
I never used air on my PC because with canned air I know there's the risk of liquid coming out and getting on the components

With fire

Soulslikes aren't my thing anyway, but if you want to try it out, it's on Game Pass PC fwiw

A bushy paint brush, blowing air with a compressor or vacuum cleaner in reverse and isopropyl alcohol whem needed.

I use a MetroVac Electric Duster to clean my PC. I used to use compressed air cans, but got tired of that.

yeah, the electric ones are pretty good ... highly-recommended

I used to use compressed air cans, but I stopped after I took an arrow to the knee killed a PC with them.

Anti static brushes

But what about the PSU or the CPU cooler filter?

i usually just open the pc, blow a little into it and then close it, maybe take the filters out for some airing
yeah my pc is old, this tip can also be applied to real life too

I just clean the filters every week. Once a year I take the case out and use a cheap electric blower to clean everything. That's about it.

Thats weird, why the hell they would announce only the EGS version, and suddenly the Steam version, the exclusivity deal fell through?

I use a leaf blower, I cut the nozzle in half, so that my PC doesn't fly away to kingdom come. You have to start it at 5 metres from your pc and keep enough space for the extra 10 metres you will be at the end and have some toilet paper to clean your bloody ears.

 

[actual_norwegian_guy]

man i just cant wait for that p5r port honestly, p4g was a blast and no doubt p5r will be too

anyways, so the story behind that is that a prominent insider figure (that we all truly know and love, buuuuuut no names) told someone involved in p4g that p5r was happening alongside with another atlus port (buuut the port feels "not right", as if bait in case the message spread (which it did))
i knew this around like p4g launch and i've just waited and waited and waited and waited and waited DO YOU KNOW HOW PAINFUL IT IS THAT YOU KNOW WHAT IS GETTING PORTED, BUT NO CLUE WHEN?? I'M THIS CLOSE TO REFERENCING A DAVID BOWIE SONG

anyways it's like 1 am and i need to sleep, i'll pray in my sleep that i will at least get something as small as the steamappid for the port under my pillow

Bought a cheap blower recently, worked great. This one actually. Can probably find similar as any number of cheap Chinese variants from different brands etc. And yeah this is LOUD and you won't use it on higher than half power (so I dunno, maybe a 400W one would be enough for that use but the price difference wasn't really meaningful so I didn't risk that). Also you'll wanna take the PC outside for that treatment, dust will be flying out everywhere for sure.

Don't expect much from vacuuming. I wanted something fancy and compact like this Opolar stuff but the first costs way too much and the 2nd might be weak.

OPOLAR High Power Cordless Air Duster & Vacuum 2-in-1

🏆 OPOLAR ADVANCED MOTOR: Unlike the traditional model, this OPOLAR duster is equipped with the newest hurricane motor with speed, ranging from 33,000 rpm to 60,000 rpm. It can produce ten levels stronger thrust of air, 28m/s, deeply cleaning even microscopic dust particles. Additionally, its...

OPOLAR Battery Operated Air Duster

Deep Cleaning & Extensive Utilization: This OPOLAR duster tops the market by its capacity to produce a powerful thrust of air at almost 9 levels strong gale for deep cleaning of the microscopic dust of 0.9-1.1oz. Starting from printed circuit boards to electronic instruments, medical devices...

www.opolar.com

After checking user reviews + cost benefits I settled on that one. There are some other more compact but not as much as Opolar's stuff like from Xpower to see but I really doubt you'll find something as cost effective as a simple traditional blower thing like that, all the stuff advertised for PC etc. are marked way up (here). That said I'm pretty sure the canned air is safe and what may appear as liquid leaking dries out super fast with no residue or anything. I've used tons. It also doesn't really happen at all as long as you hold the can upright and use small bursts rather than prolonged presses, stop when the can gets too cold etc.

Does enough people buy from EGS tho?
With EGS reducing exclusivity payments (less money, lifetime recoup, collateral on other games) it seems deals would be much less enticing, so there would need to be actual volume.

It doesn't and that statement is so kinda crazy when you realize that if that 30% is 2x of development budget they basically earned 5x of that development budget and it is still not enough. And big part of that money is Valehim that wasn't released on Epic store even though Coffee Stain had numbers from Epic Store. It was released on Steam for a reason.

 

[texhnolyze]

The way I see it, they're preparing their own store/platform so that they can maximize profit. Like, it's clear that's their end goal judging by their aggressive moves in the past few years. And they actually can do that with their massive collection of games and studios.

 

[madjoki]

t doesn't and that statement is so kinda crazy when you realize that if that 30% is 2x of development budget they basically earned 5x of that development budget and it is still not enough.

I don't think it actually says that, games are usually multi year developments.
As last year was kinda special due to corona, so it probably doesn't apply to other years. (potentially reduced costs last year, but much increased sales)

At least he's willing to also shit on consoles.

 

[Line]

Invaded by dark spirit Pinocchio of the Boreal Valley!
Interesting choice, but it looks pretty tame right now.

In other news, I'm playing Resident Evil.
Resident Evil 4 because no monies.
It's still fun! Except the QTEs.

But I realized that I don't have RE5 on Steam for some reason I'll try to get it and go on to RE6 after that.

 

[Nabs]

They're going to buy everything, then start their own subscription service.

It's so odd most are willing to give pass for consoles, even though it doesn't make any sense. (And things like letting Sony&MS charge for access to your servers)
