I mean, I don't know why you guys are worried for a few games. Then again I'm the kind of guy who rarely buys games at launch (maybe I do it if I'm really interested and I find a good deal like 40-45€ for a 60€ game) and at times I've passed buying a game because I wanted to finish a long game I was playing. So the idea of missing a few games (at launch or in the long run) has never really bothered me. And at some point in time they will have to stop paying bribing game devs.
===
So speaking about games, I assume CDkeys is the cheapest I'll find Sekiro ? Or is there any chance of a GMG coupon or something like that?

Allow me to go completely OT (and out of platform) for a moment, and ask a question regarding a Switch release.

Does anyone by any chance followed the release of the Darius Cozmic Collection?
I know there is a regular release, and a special edition, with different games included. But I saw references to games only available from certain retailers (like, I believe one was listed as a pre-order bonus for Amazon.jp).
What releases included what, and was there any edition that included all the games split between different editions?

Anyone has it? How is it? Is it English friendly? Are all games included on the cart(s), or is any DLC?

I believe there's no release announced for outside of Japan.
Considering that, sadly, neither Taito, nor companies like Degica, are interested in releasing any further Darius games on PC, I'm tempted to try to track down this release.
It would suck a bit, since it would mean I would have to get a console I otherwise have no interest in, but I :love: Darius.

Man, finding the correct button to embed stuff in here is tough. Is it a link, an image, a GIF, a quote, spoiler, media? This icon? No that. Nah over there. Hard work.

Anyway...


,,is out.

All those tables were available through Pinball Arcade, so probably a tough sell but they're adding enough new stuff and the tables so far have been fairly polished that you can't call them lazy money grabs.

Yeah, like Alextended said you can just paste the link and it will auto-embed most stuff. I've never specifically embedded Steam or youtube stuff here. It's magic.

I definitely wouldn't consider them lazy money grabs. Based on their previous 2 Williams DLCs, they did a great job with the tables, there's plenty of extra modes, optional enhanced effects for the tables, and the price is very affordable for 3 tables.

But, personally, I'll be skipping this and future volumes, at least until they're very heavily discounted (if I buy them at all), after the crap they pulled with Operencia.
I beta tested the game on Steam, and was looking forward to it, but close to release, they decided to delay the Steam launch for a full year, after making a deal with Epic.

Thankfully, I have all these tables, and probably most, if not all, of the tables they will be launching in the near future, on Pinball Arcade, so I have my classic pinball tables fix covered. :giggle:

yup, like others said - you don't have to use the embed (or even insert link) buttons at all

if it's something embeddable - it'll just automatically embed it ... if not - it'll still at least grab the page title and insert that instead of just the raw link :)

Still deciding whether to play with KBM (would probably put EX-Act on one my mouse side buttons) or (Steam) Controller.
I played with a xbox controller, I broke many devil breakers by mistake at first because it was set on LB. :notlikethisblob:
Without spoiling anything, later on you'll have to use almost every buttons: even the 4 ways of the D-Pad, (even the Option button is used for taunts).

I don't see how anyone could ever desire to play DMC5 on a keyboard.
Keep in mind that there is multiple playable characters, all with their unique control schemes and individual button assignments.

Haven't played DMC but I play everything with M+KB so if I ever get it that will be my only option

I've played DMC4 up to Dante Must Die on a keyboard, I have experience :wd_dealwithit:
I'm guessing you put the gun on some other button though.

I could never try DMC or any action/fighting game on a keyboard, but people put in the effort and they can play decently on it.

I didn't expect much from Google but instead I'm let down and left scared.
This could be the scariest thing that can happen to the industry, pretty much fights against every ideal I enjoy about gaming :suicide-blob:
Normally I wouldn't wish people to fail but Google will be fine even if it does and this needs to be nipped before it grows so I hope Google fails badly.

Scary can be good! If they deliver on promises it can be amazing. I really hope they succeed. Sure there is alot we don't know so they might still do an epic store thing...

Same here. I own almost every table pack for pinball fx3 and I bought the previous Williams packs day one. But Zen can go to hell after their exclusivity deal with Epic. I'm really disappointed by this decision, because Zen has a history of supporting as much platforms and storefronts as possible.

I honestly fail to see any good in this, everything that it does, Steam Link out-of-home would fulfill my needs for and I get to keep my games.
We'll see, reception seems kinda mixed so I'm not hopeful for my future, but if streaming really is the future with no way to own software anymore or do local, I'll just have to accept that my age is done. I cannot in good conscience pay 60€ a month to have internet speeds for streaming service then pay for the service too, ever.
I'm sure Activision, EA and Ubisoft love this idea though as they'd get to screw consumers even more with this.
