I'm sorry to hear that. So where do you play games? And where do you sleep?
As Wok mentioned, I usually play and work on my computer in Starbucks or libraries.
I sleep at a shelter so it isn't too bad. On a waiting list for an apartment now at least. Hey now, only reason I did that is because I don't have rent to pay.
might as well enjoy whole I can since soon I will have an apartment and then have bills to pay.That's right!
actually quite nice, since the coffee is good enough and I get free refills.
Tried some Supraland. Game is good but performance isn't the best.
Going by the credits it wasn't just him but impressive for a small team nontheless. Not enjoying shitting on games. I just found the same hooks I often see to give you the feels and found it off-putting.
No Time, No Budget, No Problem: Finishing 'The First Tree'
This talk is for indie developers looking to finish their game while working a full-time job. David Wehle explains the tactics he used to finish his successful indie project 'The First Tree' even while working over forty hours a week at The VOID...www.gdcvault.com
Tree dev's GDC talk. Certainly impressive for one dude, too bad it didn't work for you.

It's sad how so many sites keep writing articles defending Epic's moneyhats.
And all of them are writing the same nonsense and straight up lies:

Again: what the hell is wrong with these journalists? These articles read like sponsored Epic PR, written by someone who isn't a pc gamer in the first place. And it's not only hardcoregamer who publishes this nonsense: it's every damn game site out there!
What's going on here?
And all of them are writing the same nonsense and straight up lies:
- "The only difference for the end-user is having to launch their game through Epic Game Store instead of Steam."
- "This is what it takes to compete against a titan like Steam "
- "For gamers, it’s a massive pain to find something decent in the ocean of junkware and asset-flips that flood the store on a daily basis"
- "Valve’s incredibly large cut out of game sales "
- "Valve could continue to sit back and let the money roll in without putting any effort whatsoever into improving their product"

Ge0force It's an opportunity for me to unwhitelist a bunch of sites on Adblock which is handy as when i visit them from a link and they bug me about Adblock i'll remember why they got blocked in the first place and go elsewhere.
It's also reminded me that regardless of how often i dip my toes into the mainstream waters every few years something happens to remind me that i will forever be a niche in this hobby and that's fine with me. I'm not really a AAA or AAA-Indie gamer so i don't particularly feel i'm missing out unlike some.
I also suspect that some of these fluff pieces are mandated by Epic PR seeing how they all sound the same.

You lot are gonna keep complaining about epic and journalism all year long arent you :v
This whole EGS is the Epic Experiment and one i suspect is gonna fail just as it wouldve gotten good, come 2020.
There isnt much to say about egs that hasnt been said
Stop wasting so much brain cells on it.

No doubt this is true for several of these sites/journalists. But every one of them? I really find that hard to believe.
Or maybe I'm just naive, that's a possibility as well
shouldn't there be an epic venting thread? Kinda tired trying to avoid news about Epic and then see it in every PC thread 
Tizoc has the right mindset. I don't even worry about Epic. I know people say "Steam is full of garbage and you can't find good games..." Well, I'd rather have access to a whole lot than a select few. Basically, I'm cool playing McPixel.
Why not? I am tired to read all the Epic ranting posts. Someone create a MetaEpic threadshouldn't there be an epic venting thread? Kinda tired trying to avoid news about Epic and then see it in every PC thread

Great idea. Sorry for bothering you.

My housemate loves Gran Tourismo and watches Jimmy Broadbent who also races using Assetto Corsa and a couple of other sims as well as reviewing DLC cars and tracks for these games.
Fek me, Assetto Corsa has come a long way since the early Tech Demo days!

No, it's actually a bad idea. Megathreads, or in this case, a special thread just for one topic to "vent" about is bad. Everyone should know about the newest shenanigans from epic and their support team. If I have to endure the multiple page long happy birthday congratulations then you can endure news about fuckery with our hobby.
(My birthday was at the beginning of the month and I said nothing, hah, take this!)
Agreed. But if it's bothering certain people, it may be best to talk about it in other threads than this one. That doesn't have to be a megathread; we can make a new thread for every significant issue.
Happy birthday by the way
Ima give the last boss a few more tries in Sekiro before heading to bed, damn my friend for beating it on his 4th try, I've already died a few dozen times.
Also Katana ZERO quick look, game looks really cool:

I'm all for a happy birthday thread but people don't want it apparently and prefer to congratulate in here; so I guess I wouldn't understand why we would have to post actually news about our hobby in separate threads.
I, being of sound mind and body, do hereby declare: Steam is an epic fan favorite here for PC gamers.
See, GabeN is just a name but SweeneyT is a bit close to Sweeney Todd and well...

Ge0force Games journalists are part of the games industry. They are not an independent party that covers the games industry, they are part of it. Many of these journalists aspire to work for major publishers as PR mouthpieces or community managers. Expect nothing from them.

PSA - Dangerous Driving PC missing leaderboards feature due to EGS exclusivity
https://www.gamerevolution.com/review/521511-dangerous-driving-review If you’re playing on a computer, the problems don’t end there. Dangerous Driving is currently an Epic Games Store exclusive title. This usually wouldn’t impact a review in any way, but the client’s lack of features makes this...

There's no way you found that on Steam. Way too much garbage. You need real epic curation.
I do agree that sometimes one just wants to forget about epic nonsense but when it comes up in ones podcasts and they are do damn bitter about it, it gets little much.
Oh I wholeheartedly agree! But I try to explore abit, saw a sleezy Peepshow kind of place and couldn't resist.XD
So I've been playing Metal Gear Rising since some of you peer-pressured me into doing so. I'm not at all into that type of game but I have to say that I am enjoying it so far. Luckily the game's challenge is at an ok level for me (which means that on Normal it's low enough for me to be competent without getting frustrated). It took me a while to understand some of the game's systems but once everything clicked I started getting into a decent rhythm. All in all, fun game.

Alexandros It's not a game for me but i love watching playthroughs of MGR and the one tip i remember is: Parry All The Things!

You have to read the responses on Era. It's a required reading.
Why are you so entitled, Senpai? How can you ask for leaderboards when developers that were moneyhatted by Epic can't keep the lights on?

Thankfully the parry window seems pretty generous. I was watching some Sekiro videos and thinking "if MGR is anything like that, I'm screwed".

This game just launched (and has a free soundtrack DLC):
Beat Sekiro, seems like everytime I complain about a boss I win immediately after
Gonna clear a few things or farm some materials or something before moving on to new game+
well i hope that tactic works for me, cos i'm at the final boss now and he's kicking my f*cking ass >_<
Why don't you want to give your credit card informations to Epic, it's just another store?
Finally requested deleation of my Epic account. I've had it for a few years because of the Unreal Engine and figured I'd use it to claim the free games if I already have it anyways (which I stopped some weeks ago), but I really don't want to be part of their bullshit stats they use to spin themselves as a success.
Good riddance.
