The extra items are pretty damn useless. Standard Edition is fine.Is the RE8 DLC useful storywise? Or can I just skip it and get the Standard Edition?
Also holy crap so much of my wishlist is on sale. It's been a while since the last good sale for me.
Yea, prices are still high.RDR2 at 50% off is the best option for me.lol forgot about the sale
Unreal. I just sold my Wii U copy of this game, since I don't have a Wii U anymore. I've never played it, but it's been on my list for a long, long time. After selling the game, I was happy to see it so cheap on Steam and looking forward to finally playing it. However, reviews called out that the DLC requires online, and connectivity was broken. Now this. Fuck this company. I'll pirate it and any other Ubisoft games I ever feel like playing.Apparently Ubisoft is banning folks who ask for a fix for an old game?

Ubisoft announced they will not fix Blacklist online connectivity issues
UPDATE: The thread on the Ubisoft official forum has been deleted. A new article on Kotaku talks about it, here's what it says about the thread: " Ubisoft representatives now tell Kotaku that the post had been written by a user impersonating a Ubisoft employee, not a member of the support staff. It has been deleted, with the player responsible for the comments now also banned. We regret the error, and apologise for the confusion."
The arrogant tone of this announcement is insane. How could you talk to your most loyal fans like this?Apparently Ubisoft is banning folks who ask for a fix for an old game?

Hello Splinter Cell Blacklist Fans,
My name is {I retracted the name on purpose here}, I am Head of the Ubisoft Customer Relationship Center. It has been brought to my attention by one of our team leads here at Ubisoft Customer Support, {I retracted the name on purpose here}, that many users have been reporting issues connecting with the Splinter Cell Blacklist services when attempting to access the multiplayer or cooperative features of the game.
Rest assured, we are aware of the issue. However, given the age of the game in question, and the relatively inactive player base, the game team has decided not to devote any further resources into rectifying this issue.
It is for this reason that I must ask you, our loyal players, to refrain from opening any further support tickets regarding this issue. My team and I have no input into the decision making process of the game teams, and by continuing to weigh down the support team with well-known and unsolvable issues only serves to prevent other innocent players from receiving the prompt problem solving they deserve.
Any support tickets submitted regarding this issue in the future will be met with a 7 day ban. During this period, you will be unable to make purchases through the Ubisoft store, log in to Ubisoft websites, log in to your Ubisoft account or play through the Ubisoft Connect client. However, you may still play offline. Customer support will not be able to lift this ban.
Further offenses will be met with a permanent ban.
In addition, any users found to be intentionally using an earlier version of Ubisoft Connect or Uplay launchers in order to workaround the issue will be banned. Older versions of Ubisoft Connect are no longer secure, and continuing to make use of them could result in security breaches to your Ubisoft account or Ubisoft as a whole.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
Respectfully,

Can't wait, the first one is one of my favorite games ever.
It’s a visual novel / adventure game.What kind of game is Ai Somnium Files? I have it installed since I’ve seen people really like it.
Yeah I kind of got that, but is it only clicking one button to progress dialogue kind of game or is there a world to explore and move around in?It’s a visual novel / adventure game.
Is that a fucking minecraft guy
Sorry for self quoting but can anyone help out?Can I play Gears Tactics without having ever played any gears game? Will I get the story, character motivations, world/lore, etc?
Does it spoil in any way the other games in the series? I was hopping for a steam release so I could finally find out why people seem to love it so much.
Yes, you can. It would be better to play the other games or watch a recap on YT, but you can play Tactics without having played the other games.Sorry for self quoting but can anyone help out?
But I can't in any way actually figure out how to utilize the Steam Link app with Chromecast. Googling just results in people saying to Screenshare to the Chromecast, but is that really the solution if they write in the patch notes that they support the Chromecast? That feels more like a workaround.What's New
* Added support for almost 1000 Android devices, including Google Chromecast
They probably talking about the new chromecast that runs on android tv and its not just a casting device.I saw there was an update to the Steam Link app a few weeks ago, and the changelog mentions:

If only the released the damn code to let fans maintain and fix their own servers without taking away resources from their new shiny projects.Apparently Ubisoft is banning folks who ask for a fix for an old game?

It's definitely one of my favorite Uchikoshi stories.Can't wait, the first one is one of my favorite games ever.
Be careful of spoilers because they are the last things you want to see before playing this game.Yeah I kind of got that, but is it only clicking one button to progress dialogue kind of game or is there a world to explore and move around in?
Edit, checked a review for it, yeah seems pretty good! Just need to be in the mood for that kind of game. But will give it a go!
I played a bit of Tactics and had only previously played Gears 1&2 (ages ago, forgot most of it) and then 5 more recently. Didn't really feel like i was missing much. I guess if you sort of know what the Gears world is about then thats good enough.Can I play Gears Tactics without having ever played any gears game? Will I get the story, character motivations, world/lore, etc?
Does it spoil in any way the other games in the series? I was hopping for a steam release so I could finally find out why people seem to love it so much.
If it helps I love X-Com but couldn't get into Chimera squad. They changed the turn based nature of it so that you alternate turns with the enemies. I didn't like it.I've never played a Gears game but as a huge fan of the genre Gears Tactics is pretty tempting at this price.
Chimera Squad is also pretty cheap, haven't played that one yet either and I'm a sucker for X-Com... Fucking wallet is always on the brink of death.

No thanks. Valve should not be the arbiter of what is considered entertainment, they should only do the bare minimum of making sure it's a genuine product, and not a scam or something that breaks the law.There should be a MINIMUM of quality control at Valve.
I played a lot of Chimera Squad early in the year. Sure, they changed the turn order, but I still found the game very fun!I see. Thanks for the feedback.

This is a notification about the content included in the full game and our plans for future updates.store.steampowered.com
When Monster Hunter Rise launches on Steam, it will include all of the content up to Ver.3.6.1 of the Nintendo Switch version.
We are also planning to synch the content with the Nintendo Switch version at the end of February 2022.
Please note that the game does not support cross-platform play or cross-saves with the Nintendo Switch version.
It's a fun thing to think about, even though we are bad at playing those games we still manage to have fun moments with them.You selected the same "best game you suck at award" as I did.
Originally, I selected Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection, but since I always try to stick my favourite games (at least the ones I remember of ) in the various existing slots, R-Type Final 2 ended up getting a nod over Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection.
Day 1 for me, same with God of War. Great games.This is great news and just in time for Deck
